There is always time to honor a good man & good work. Mike Atkins & his wife Josie, have put the youth of Syracuse first. Mike gives of himself, never seeking recognition. It was my honor to present him w an official Congressional proclamation @ Tamica Barnett’s, Fired Up for Youth event. Come On!
Ezra Jack Keats wrote The Snowy Day over sixty years ago. It was a joy to read it at the Winter Wonderland event, held by SCSD. The kids that attended today were engaged, creative and inquisitive. This morning, like the book was inspiring and despite the cold, bright rays of sunshine filled the air.
Another deadly shooting involving federal agents in Minnesota underscores that this is not about immigration enforcement — it is about sowing fear and chaos on American streets.
The federal operation in Minnesota must end immediately.
Congratulations to the 55th mayor of the City of Syracuse, Mayor Sharon Owens! 🍊A landmark day at the Landmark Theater!
The Mayor has put the people of Syracuse first for decades, giving of herself to improve the lives of others.
Jen & I were honored to witness this historic occasion.
I join the bipartisan majority of the House in support of a clean extension of the ACA tax credits. I’ve signed the discharge petition, and the Speaker needs to bring this bill to the floor.
It’s time to put politics aside and keep health care affordable for tens of millions of Americans.
And in Australia, people celebrating Hannukah were brutally murdered in an antisemitic attack. This was an act of terror, and I continue to stand with the Jewish community.
I mourn the loss of American servicemembers in Syria who were serving in dangerous conditions far from home.
In Providence, an attack targeting Brown University students reminds us, yet again, that gun violence continues to threaten our young people in places meant for learning and safety.
A common thread connects the horrific tragedies we witnessed in our country and across the world this weekend: violence, hatred, and extremism. It is incumbent on all of us to reject these ideologies.
The families of nursing home patients at Van Duyn need to be assured that their loved ones are being taken care of.

Why is President Trump pardoning the former president of Honduras — a convicted international cocaine trafficker? How is this in the national interest?
The president claims the prosecution was a ‘witch hunt,’ but that’s false.
When pardons are misused, we erode the rule of law itself.
Every new mom and every baby must have access to safe, reliable formula and the essential nutrition that supports healthy development. I’ll continue supporting programs like WIC and others that help parents keep their children healthy and safe.

I joined a bipartisan letter urging HHS to release LIHEAP home-heating funds without delay.
Millions of seniors, families, and people with disabilities rely on this assistance, and states need these dollars now—not weeks from now—to keep homes safe and warm this winter.

I voted to require the Trump administration to release the full Epstein files.
Survivors deserve justice and the American people deserve the truth. I will keep fighting to hold anyone involved, no matter how wealthy or well-connected, accountable for these crimes.
Innovating in education for more than a century, Central New York and the Mohawk Valley are always embracing new ways to prepare students for the careers of tomorrow.
The Trump assault on the social safety net continues with HUD’s proposed overhaul of homelessness assistance, right as winter sets in.
Our communities need a federal partner that listens to evidence and respects local expertise.
My full letter to HUD:
As I have said all along - I will not support a funding package that fails to address skyrocketing health care costs, leaves my constituents vulnerable to unbearable premium hikes, and fails to rein in the lawlessness of the Trump administration.
My full statement:
Fifty days since her election, a long overdue welcome to the newest Member of the House of Representatives, Adelita Grijalva (AZ-7)
It’s the role of government to build and maintain the critical infrastructure that delivers the clean water that every family and community needs, and I’m committed to securing these investments across NY-22.

Mannion lauds ruling ordering feds to fund SNAP
www.romesentinel.com/news/mannion...
It should never take a court order to compel our government to prevent hunger.
My statement on the federal court rulings ordering the administration to release SNAP funds:
We need bipartisan negotiations and real solutions that ensure proper funding for critical programs like HEAP. No one should play politics with heating assistance – this is a matter of health, safety, and basic human dignity.

They deserve a representative that fights just as hard alongside them.
