The November jobs report is the latest evidence that our strong, steady, expectation-shattering recovery continues.
 
Under @POTUS & @HouseDemocrats, our nation has seen the strongest jobs growth on record: 10.5 million new jobs added, including 750,000 new jobs in manufacturing.
During the 117th Congress, Democrats have enacted a job-creating economic agenda that has propelled our nation from the depths of the pandemic.
 
Our American Rescue Plan got millions of Americans swiftly, safely back to work – with vaccines in arms & relief for small businesses.
We built on this progress with our Infrastructure Law, creating new union-protected jobs rebuilding our roads, bridges, public transit and more.  
 
We’re paving new pathways to high-paying careers in STEM, R&D, and semiconductor manufacturing with the CHIPS and Science Law.
And our Inflation Reduction Act is projected to create nine million new jobs in clean energy industries as part of our landmark effort to combat the climate crisis, while bringing down the cost of prescription drugs, health care and energy bills for our families.
Democrats can take pride in the many victories we have achieved for America’s working families over the last 2 years. We remain determined to defend & expand this vital progress: putting #PeopleOverPolitics to build a future where every family can thrive. speaker.gov/newsroom/12222…

World AIDS Day is a solemn opportunity to reflect on the devastating toll that HIV/AIDS has wreaked on communities around the globe. 

Today, and every day, we remember the beautiful souls stolen away by this vicious disease and comfort the grieving loved ones left behind.
San Franciscans know all too well the rampant despair and pain inflicted on our city amid the darkest days of the AIDS crisis. 

Out of that profound grief grew bonds of community: neighbors supporting each other, joining together and channeling their anguish into action.
Inspired by the powerful voices of activists and survivors, the Congress has proudly worked to drive groundbreaking research, bolster global care efforts, support life-saving treatments and tear down discriminatory barriers.

Today, the Senate took an historic step forward in Democrats’ fight to defend freedom, dignity and equality. The Respect for Marriage Act will uphold marriage equality under federal law – tearing the bigoted, unconstitutional 'Defense of Marriage Act’ off the books for good.
Since the Supreme Court’s monstrous decision overturning Roe, extreme MAGA Republicans have set their sights on additional freedoms. In his opinion, Clarence Thomas explicitly called on the Court to reconsider the right to marriage equality handed down in its Obergefell decision.
Once signed into law, the Respect for Marriage Act will prevent right-wing extremists from uprooting legal precedent, tearing away fundamental freedoms and upending the lives of families across the country.

It is with great sadness that I join Virginians in mourning the loss of Congressman Donald McEachin: a tireless champion for Virginia families and a force for economic opportunity and environmental justice.
For 2 decades, Congressman McEachin was a distinguished leader on climate in Richmond: serving in both the House of Delegates and the State Senate. 

Congressman McEachin understood that families in communities all across America deserve clean air, clean water & a healthy planet.
A respected voice on @EnergyCommerce & @NRDems, he advocated to lower costs, expand broadband access & protect families from gun violence. 

His contributions to @ClimateCrisis laid the groundwork for our climate action, especially the progress toward environmental justice.

Today’s Supreme Court ruling upholds our Democracy, the rule of law and the Congress’ ability to execute its legislative and oversight responsibilities. Now, the Congress must enact legislation requiring Presidents and candidates for President to disclose their tax returns.
The Supreme Court’s commonsense decision will allow the IRS to comply with federal law and deliver the former President’s tax returns to @WaysMeansCmte.
These documents are vital to meeting the House’s Constitutional mandate: guarding the public interest, defending our national security and holding our public officials to account.

As our nation marks Transgender Day of Remembrance, @HouseDemocrats mourn the countless Americans stolen away by the scourge of transphobic violence, a crisis that continues to disproportionately harm trans people of color.
Today, and every day, let us offer comfort to grieving loved ones, honor those killed and continue fighting to save lives from the wicked forces of hate.

That fight is more urgent than ever, as right-wing extremists target transgender Americans’ fundamental rights and freedoms.
Horrified by such shameless bigotry, House Democrats are proud to march alongside our trans friends, neighbors and siblings as we work to uphold justice for all.

That is why we have enacted fully-inclusive federal hate crime protections and twice passed the Equality Act.

This year, @HouseDemocrats defied expectations with an excellent performance: running their races with courage, optimism and determination.
In the next Congress, @HouseDemocrats will continue to play a leading role supporting @POTUS’ agenda — with strong leverage over a scant Republican majority.
House Democrats are thrilled to have so many terrific new and returning Members to the House, who will reinvigorate our Caucus with their energy, diversity and patriotism.
