The havoc @ElonMusk and his team are wreaking within @FEMA will slow the pace of assistance to disaster survivors in places like California, North Carolina, and Florida. FEMA must follow the laws written by Congress and stick to its mission of helping communities before during and after disasters.

Rep. Rick Larsen retweeted
Joseph Rainey, born enslaved in Georgetown, SC, became the first African American elected to Congress. I represent some of the same communities he did more than 150 years ago. Today, a record 67 Black lawmakers serve in Congress. We all stand upon the shoulders of Joseph Rainey. #BlackHistoryMonth

The goal of the Republican budget is to provide tax cuts to the richest Americans & largest corporations. The GOP is not serious about lowering costs for working families & small businesses, growing the economy or reducing the deficit.
House Republicans release a budget resolution that calls for cutting taxes by up to $4.5 trillion and sets a goal of slashing federal spending by $2 trillion. The resolution also would raise the debt limit by $4 trillion ahead of a deadline this year. nbcnews.com/politics/congres…

Investment in clean water infrastructure protects the nation’s waters and creates good-paying jobs. At today’s hearing, @TransportDems will discuss how they’re fighting to protect clean water in communities across the country. piped.video/watch?v=jdcc2jF5…

As someone who appreciates the arts & their role in telling U.S. history in all its glory & pain, the President’s actions are concerning at the least. The law does not allow him to appoint himself chair of the board. I am not even certain he knows what the chair of the board does. As an Honorary Trustee of the Kennedy Center by virtue of the law, I will continue to watch this issue closely & do what I can to ensure the Kennedy Center keeps its artistic freedom to share the cultural diversity of the world.
President Trump’s Kennedy Center announcement appears to be blatantly illegal. U.S. Code says general trustees “shall hold office … for a term of 6 years” - nothing about the President having power to remove - and the Chairperson is appointed by the Board. A president cannot appoint himself.

I am concerned that @EPA is failing to honor signed grant agreements allowing ports in WA, including the Port of #Anacortes & @PortBellingham, to make long-term investments in shore power while promoting good-paying jobs that are essential to the country’s maritime industry.
