We need the Senate Republican majority and the Trump administration to stop holding federal employees hostage over a costly and ineffective border wall. Pass the bills that were agreed on and open the government! #FL27 #SoFla

As we enter the third week of the #TrumpShutown, the reality is that around 800,000 federal workers still haven’t received their paychecks. But the worst is yet to come. miamiherald.com/news/politics-…

Republicans have spent years rewarding wealthy donors & special interests while leaving working families behind. That ends now. We just introduced the #ForThePeople Act – a once-in-a-generation reform bill to clean up corruption in Washington. #FL27 pic.twitter.com/7GKOrm9wW5

My constituents and South Florida can be guaranteed that I will be a strong voice that will help move our country forward.

Big news: I will serve on the powerful House Rules Committee. I look forward to working alongside @RepHastingsFL to fight for the constituents of #FL27. Fact: The committee has significant control of reviewing/changing all legislation headed to the House floor. #Sayfie pic.twitter.com/oBKTO6AJHm

Last night I joined the @HouseDemocrats by passing legislation to fund and open the government agencies that have been affected by the #GovernmentShutdown. I hope the Senate Republican majority and the President will pass and sign these bills in good faith. #FL27 pic.twitter.com/H9anniKWxh

Thank you @HRC for allowing me to join you all on stage to celebrate history as we welcome the most diverse Congress ever. The #LGBTQ community in #SoFla deserve champions in Congress and I’m proud to stand by my colleagues who will continue to fight for #equality. twitter.com/HRC/status/108…

Congrats to our newly elected Speaker of the House ⁦@SpeakerPelosi⁩! I look forward to working together on pressing issues that will lift up our communities in #FL27. #SoFla washingtonpost.com/powerpost/the-…

I’m humbled by the opportunity to serve #FL27. This morning, I called former Rep. @RosLehtinen and thanked her for her service. Now that I have my member pin and card, I’m ready to get to work. #firsttweet pic.twitter.com/cBcwMEesp2
