Press Release

The FBI has now confirmed that the memo declassified by Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee is inaccurate because of ‘material omissions of fact.’ 

For twenty years, Bob Brady has been a champion for Philadelphia in the United States Congress.  I’ve been proud to serve alongside him and call him a friend. 

Thank you very much. I think the Floor reflected the deep disappointment; not only that we had last night with the President’s speech, but what we had with the last year of the President’s performance.
 

The President said he wanted to make us safer, stronger, prouder. I’m not sure whether he has accomplished any of those things either in the world or in our country… He has spent most of last year, almost all of the last year, doing two things with the Republican Congress: trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act and pass the tax bill that we think does not really help the middle-class working people of this country and, in fact, will pass a credit card debt along to all of our children.

[President Trump's State of the Union] called for bipartisanship, I don't think any of us thought on our side of the aisle, it was a very bipartisan speech.

Tonight, the President spoke of building a ‘safe, strong, and proud America’ but neither his words tonight nor his actions over the past year are accomplishing any of those goals.

I don't think $1,000 is chump change, Neil but when you compare it to what the upper 1% got, you're talking about $23 a week versus about $1,100 a week [of a tax cut].

We’re going to listen to the President of the United States talk about the state of the union and the state of the union is better because of the DREAMers.
