In the #FightingFifth, there’s no coastline and no major rivers, yet even moderate rainfall can leave cars underwater. Flooding isn’t rare, it’s routine. I’m fighting to change that and invest before disaster strikes.

#EqualPayDay marks how far into 2026 women must work to catch up to men’s 2025 pay. Women earn 76¢ on the dollar—and less for women of color and mamas.
I’m co-leading a resolution reaffirming equal pay for women in the #FightingFifth and nationwide.
TSA paychecks shouldn’t be hostage to ICE’s violence. TSA agents in the #FightingFifth are going unpaid & travelers are paying the price. Senate Republicans were ready to join Democrats to get TSA paid Trump BLOCKED the deal.
Pay TSA agents. Hold ICE accountable. The American people deserve both.
We honored our mamas at the In Her Honor portrait unveiling—uplifting the stories behind the fight for maternal health justice. In the #FightingFifth and beyond, we’re working to expand care, support families, and save lives. Because when we fight for mamas, we fight for our future.
No one should have to choose between groceries and healthcare. Families are skipping meals and cutting essentials—or going uninsured.

A federal judge blocked Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s attempt to roll back vaccine protections that keep families in the #FightingFifth and across the country safe. Vaccines save lives and the science matters. That’s why I made sure I’m up to date on my MMR booster.
I got mine—y’all go get yours.

Our future is in very good hands.
Trump’s dangerous and unconstitutional actions in Iran are hurting working families in the #FightingFifth and worsening the Republican affordability crisis—gas prices jumped 11 cents per gallon overnight.
It’s past time for Congress to hold this president accountable. We must #ImpeachTrump NOW.
