Let’s ensure the 113th Congress succeeds where the 112th Congress failed. We can begin by quickly passing bipartisan #VAWA Reauthorization.
I hope with all my heart that 113th Congress will find common ground that is a higher, better place for our country. http://youtu.be/nyL4IzM1ysc
House Rs will take outrageous step of using House rules to defend #DOMA. Dems strongly oppose wasting taxpayer $ to defend discrimination.
#Sandy victims deserve better. This has already been one of the longest delays in congressional response to a major natural disaster.
We cannot leave here doing nothing. That would be a disgrace. #Sandy
Let’s remember our social compact that government will be there when people are in need. House GOP leaders should allow #Sandy relief vote.
Heading to House floor to discuss GOP leadership's refusal to bring up #Sandy relief vote.
Tonight’s bipartisan vote is a victory for the middle class. Also a victory for President and VP who kept their promise to American people.
Strong majority of House Ds support bipartisan Senate bill that passed 89-8. Confident it will pass if @SpeakerBoehner allows up/down vote.
When a final agreement is reached and passed by the Senate, I will present it to the House Democratic Caucus. #FiscalCliff
Rest in peace, Lillian Lewis. A smart and caring woman, Lillian was @repjohnlewis’ wife for 43 yrs and a champion for justice.
Now that Senate has acted on #Sandy, House must allow a vote on this critical relief bill because we are running out of time.
House GOP leadership has run out of excuses and time. They should come back to work and stop stonewalling efforts to get the job done.
I'll be observing a #momentforSandyHook victims this Friday at 9:30am ET. Please join me.

Rep. Mike Thompson will lead task force to reduce gun violence. Our kids must know we're working to prevent these tragedies. #Newtown
.@SpeakerBoehner’s so-called “Plan B” is Plan #Befuddled. It’s not big, bold, or balanced.
To the community of Newtown, let’s show them that not only do we offer words, we offer action. http://youtu.be/AyMn2HSGkTY
No words can console the parents of the children murdered at Sandy Hook. We share our prayers and our grief over these horrifying events.
