When Justice Stephen Breyer departs from the bench, the Supreme Court and the Country will lose a leader of honor and integrity, a defender of liberty, justice and the Constitution, and a guardian of our fundamental rights.
Justice Breyer has championed liberty not merely as freedom from oppression, but as freedom to participate in our democracy – paving the way for great progress in our nation. Justice Breyer has helped ensure that our democracy does, as our Founders intended, work For The People.
For his legal brilliance, his unwavering integrity and his firm devotion to safeguarding our democracy, Justice Breyer will leave a remarkable legacy. We thank the Breyer family for sharing him with the Country.
Congress and the Country look forward to President Biden’s historic nomination, who will carry on Justice Breyer’s mission and who will keep faith with the Supreme Court’s role as a defender of individual rights. Read my full statement here:

Today’s GDP numbers show that America had the fastest economic growth in nearly four decades, powered by @HouseDemocrats’ American Rescue Plan and @POTUS Biden’s leadership.
Last year was also the single greatest year of job growth in American history – creating 6.4 million jobs. Americans are finding new jobs at a record pace, starting new small businesses, sending their children safely back to school and so much more.
We must build on this strong economic momentum by creating jobs, lowering costs and untangling supply chains. @HouseDemocrats unveiled our #AmericaCOMPETES Act: bold, results-oriented legislation that will strengthen American leadership and competitiveness at home and abroad.

The record-breaking 14.5 million ACA health insurance sign-ups since November 1st make crystal clear that, thanks to @POTUS Biden and @HouseDemocrats, health care is more affordable and accessible than ever.
The Affordable Care Act has served as a vital lifeline during the pandemic — and with our American Rescue Plan, Democrats dramatically lowered premiums so that millions are covered by a quality plan while saving families an average of $2,400.
As we battle the virus, ensuring quality, affordable and accessible health coverage will continue to be as important as ever. In a number of states, health insurance exchanges remain open through the end of this month, so there is still time for many Americans to sign up.

Today, the House takes action to transport our nation into the future, with the #AmericaCOMPETES Act: bold, results-oriented legislation that will strengthen America’s national and economic security and the financial security of families, and advance our leadership in the world.
The #AmericaCOMPETES Act will supercharge our investment in CHIPS, advance manufacturing at home, strengthen our supply chain, transform our research capacity and advance our competitiveness and leadership abroad, plus many other key provisions.
Major components of this package have already passed the House with overwhelmingly bipartisan votes. The #AmericaCOMPETES Act reflects a whole-of-House effort to produce a historic bill that will be most effective at strengthening our competitiveness at home and abroad.

SCOTUS' refusal of @HouseGOP’s request to overturn the dismissal of their frivolous lawsuit to block remote voting by proxy is a victory for Congress, the rule of law and public health.
Both the Constitution and more than a century of legal precedent make clear that the House is empowered to determine its own rules – and remote voting by proxy falls squarely within this purview.
Republicans have worked to recklessly endanger the health of colleagues, staffers and institutional workers. They do so with great shame and hypocrisy, as last year alone more than half of the Members of their conference designated a proxy so that they could vote remotely.

Today, America marks nearly half a century since the courts affirmed the Constitutional right of every woman to have the freedom to make her own decisions about her body, health and family. But, Roe v. Wade now faces its most alarming threat in decades.
States like Texas & Missouri have enacted draconian abortion restrictions. And, after allowing the dangerous SB8 to proceed, the Supreme Court could potentially strike a devastating blow to Roe when it rules on Dobbs v. Jackson.
In the face of an all-out assault, @HouseDemocrats are leading the charge to defend reproductive freedoms. In September, the House passed the Women’s Health Protection Act, which would ensure every person can make their own health decisions — and it must be enacted immediately.

When @POTUS Joe Biden and @VP Kamala Harris were sworn in one year ago, our nation faced a dark and difficult moment from pandemic and economic crises.
One year later, we proudly mark one of the most impactful first years of a presidency in modern times: getting shots into millions of arms, putting money in pockets and delivering the best year of job creation in American history.
.@POTUS and the Democratic Congress have powered an historic recovery that has created a record 6.4 million new jobs, slashed the unemployment rate to 3.9 percent & helped 16 million off unemployment. Meanwhile, we've gotten shots in the arms of 200 million Americans.
