I grew up with the Bookmobile and fell in love with reading. Being able to get our young people excited about exploring the adventures of reading is wonderful. Thank you to Adler Elementary, Riverside Elementary, and David Ellis Academy for welcoming me!
Another beautiful iftar gathering by Islamic Relief USA on Capitol Hill. Thank you to all of the staff and volunteers who help show up for the most vulnerable among us. Ramadan Kareem to all observing!
I will always speak up for our residents. The obvious truth is that deregulating fracking is dangerous to all of us. Fracking chemicals can cause cancer! We should be fighting to keep them out of our water, not giving gifts to corporate polluters who only care about profits.
We recognized Amy Good, one of our community mothers in Detroit. Amy founded Alternatives for Girls to serve vulnerable young women in Southeast Michigan. For 37 years, she has led AFG with love and commitment. Thank you for your service to our community, Amy.
SCOTUS is hearing a case today that could restrict access to medication abortion. Mifepristone is safe and effective and has been used in our country for decades. These far-right justices need to stop legislating from the bench.
Not only did I get an opportunity to encourage our young people to read for fun, but Thompson and Henry Ford Elementary also learned about clean air and water. I am looking forward to getting letters from some of these students on bill ideas.
Our Mother Rosa Parks bill passed Congress! It was a privilege to lead this effort with Senator Stabenow to rename the federal building at 985 Michigan Avenue in Detroit the ‘‘Rosa Parks Federal Building.” Thank you to everyone who supported this bill to honor her legacy.
"The Security Council just approved a long-awaited resolution on Gaza, demanding an immediate ceasefire, and the immediate & unconditional release of all hostages. This resolution must be implemented. Failure would be unforgivable." -- @antonioguterres news.un.org/en/story/2024/…
JUST IN: Rep. Rashida Tlaib said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "shouldn't come to Congress, he should be sent to the Hague" axios.com/2024/03/21/net…
The Affordable Care Act was signed into law 14 years ago today, bringing affordable health care to millions of families. Health care is a human right. Now we need to go further and pass Medicare for All.
Fifty years since the ERA was sent to the states, and we're still fighting for equality under the law. It's long past time to enshrine gender equality in the Constitution. Let's make the ERA the law of the land and ensure justice for all.
On this #WorldWaterDay, let's reaffirm that clean, affordable water is a human right. I'm fighting to stop shutoffs and keep the water flowing for our residents & working to stop corporate polluters and privatization schemes from threatening our most precious resource.

It was an honor to meet with Ambassador Ntshinga and thank South Africa for speaking truth to power. It's powerful to witness the people of South Africa, after defeating apartheid in their own country, become a voice for Palestinians at the International Court of Justice. 🇿🇦🇵🇸
Can I just say that the 12th Congressional District has some of the brightest children? Thank you to Hillcrest and Stevenson Elementary for having me for March Reading Month.
Children are starving to death in Gaza and Congress is going to make it worse. A ceasefire with an expiration date is just a pause in this genocide. We need a lasting ceasefire now.
Haiti is experiencing political upheaval and an escalating crisis. As I continue to support a true Haitian-led democratic transition that brings safety and stability, I joined my colleagues in urging the Biden Administration to halt deportations and redesignate TPS for Haitians.

Corporate polluters think they’re above the law. The toxic silica poison they emit causes permanent lung damage. Our environmental laws aren’t strong enough, especially for communities of color. We must shut this concrete crusher down. We have a right to breathe clean air.
We had such an engaging coffee hour at North Rosedale Park Community House! We discussed clean air and water, affordable housing, community projects, home repairs, and more. Thank you to all who attended.
We are facing a housing crisis in our country. Michigan has lost more Black homeownership than any other state. The Detroit Housing Commission only has about $12 million annually to spend. I introduced the Public Housing for the 21st Century Act to address this crisis.

Our #NDP motion to promote peace in the Middle East passed tonight! I want to thank all who signed petitions and called for a #ceasefire in #Gaza recognizing we need a diplomatic solution for Israel and Palestine. @NDP

#SOTU The only ceasefire that is morally acceptable is a lasting ceasefire. It is inhumane to pause the violence for 6 weeks and then continue sending bombs right after. #CeasefireNow
Metro Detroit activists, Rashida Tlaib speak out against anti-immigrant speech fox2detroit.com/news/metro-det…
Air drops aren’t enough. Israel needs to immediately allow humanitarian aid into Gaza so we can address the immense scale of the suffering, but more than that, we need an immediate and permanent ceasefire.
I call upon Israel & Hamas to come to a negotiated ceasefire with the immediate release of hostages, & the opening of humanitarian corridors so that food, medicine, water & other supplies can be delivered to the people of Gaza with the fierce urgency that the situation demands.
Our elected officials should be representing us. We’re proud to be an endorser of the Stop Politicians from Profiting from War Act aimed at ending unethical trading practices in Congress. Thank you @RepRashida. #EndWarProfiteering

“Our unions are staging a worldwide day of action today to ratchet up pressure for industry leading contracts. Nearly a 100k flight attendants are demanding long-overdue improvements. We’re hoping everyone who can will join our fight and our picket lines.” jacobin.com/2024/02/sara-n…
For 50 years, bosses have extorted concessions from workers while saying we’re “lucky to have jobs.” Now, Association of Flight Attendants president Sara Nelson writes in Jacobin, workers need to make bosses understand they’re lucky to have our work. jacobin.com/2024/02/sara-n…
We must invest in humanity, both at home and abroad. Congress must stop funneling taxpayer dollars into endless wars and invest in the housing, health, education, and social programs our communities need.
