Trump’s budget request includes tripling bureaucrat salaries and expenses, but cuts actual Everglades restoration work. I demanded answers from the Army Corps and they didn't have any. I’m far from done here.

With jobs down and prices surging, your tax dollars are spent caging law-abiding immigrants in horrific conditions. We could invest this money in countless other ways to make life more affordable. Instead, Trump wastes it on unwarranted cruelty.

ICE has snatched immigrant veterans off the street and deported them without due process. Democrats in the Appropriations Committee fought for — and passed — an amendment to a government funding bill to stand up for those who served their adopted country.

Servicemembers fight for the freedoms Americans enjoy, but Republicans want to rip away reproductive healthcare from women veterans. That's not freedom. I supported an amendment in the Appropriations Committee to protect the rights of those who served.

Despite Trump's promise to lower prices, grocery costs are skyrocketing. Add in Republicans' cuts to SNAP, and you have more Americans going hungry with no help.

Republicans want to increase Secretary Chris Wright's office budget, but their Big Ugly Law and Trump's reckless cuts have made Floridians' energy costs skyrocket. Taxpayer dollars should go to our communities, not trips and perks for the Secretary.

The Trump Administration wants to triple salaries and expenses, while cut funding for real work on Everglades restoration. When I pressed the Army Corps on why they're padding bank accounts, I didn't get a straight answer. I'll fight to restore full funding to our Everglades.

Trump's Energy Department illegally withheld funds from the Seminole Tribe and @CityofMiramar. I'm fighting to get that money released to make Floridians' electric bills more affordable and our grid more reliable.

Energy costs are crushing American families. Trump's Energy Department budget request fails to meet the moment. Instead, they've ghosted Floridians for the thousands of dollars in energy rebates that they're owed for money they've already had to pay out.

Trump's Energy Department withheld $345 million from Florida homeowners who are trying to make ends meet. I pushed Secretary Wright to get Floridians the money they're owed and to deliver much needed relief.

The House just voted to extend TPS for Haiti. Now, the Senate must pass it, and the House must advance our bill to do the same for Venezuelan TPS holders. We must support law-abiding immigrants who contribute so much to South Florida's community and economy.

In the business world, there are consequences for contract violations. I'm working to ensure the government holds multi-billion dollar contractors to the same standard. This is how we make government efficient, not with reckless cuts to fuel culture wars.

Today, the House will vote on whether to extend TPS for Haiti, which Democrats forced to the floor. TPS is essential to help law-abiding immigrants contribute to our economy. Every dollar spent going after TPS holders is a dollar not spent going after real criminals.
