Good news! After 12 years w no raise, we are going to vote to raise the minimum wage! It’s been stuck at $7.25 for too long.
For millions of people across 🇺🇸, working 40 hours+ a week is not enough to support their families.

Consumers pay for telephone service. They should be able to use their phone, trust who is calling & not be scammed!
That’s why I am cosponsoring the Stopping Bad Robocalls Act!
We just passed it out of committee & I urged a full House vote as soon as possible!

This study is another wake-up call from scientists. Extreme heat is a serious public health threat here in Tampa & all over the country. That’s why we’re working overtime on @ClimateCrisis. We need to cut pollution & make our communities more resilient. tampabay.com/environment/ne…

Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Do not become bitter or hostile. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. We will find a way to make a way out of no way. #goodtrouble

Today, the House will vote on a resolution that I cosponsored to condemn the President’s racist, xenophobic statements. Trump’s racist behavior, language & beliefs are wrong and are inconsistent with our #Tampa & American values 🙅‍♀️

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the resolution introduced by @RepMalinowski and @RepRaskin to condemn the President’s racist, xenophobic tweets. I hope Republicans put country before party and vote with us in support of the resolution.

An expert from @TransportDems discussed how Tampa/Hillsborough can bring our federal💲home for transportation & transit to help keep #TampaBay moving. It’s been a great partnership - thanks to the leaders who take the time to meet the needs of our neighbors & lift our community. pic.twitter.com/qZvunwSaS5

Welcome @Tampa_Chamber to Washington! Chamber leaders & I meet regularly at home but it’s impactful to have a dynamic group on the Hill. We share goals for better transit, affordable housing, MacDill AFB, quality affordable #healthcare, excellent schools & growing small business. pic.twitter.com/iws9ibbTUL
