Rep. Lucy McBath

Our pressure on the Trump Administration to release education funding approved by Congress is working—we can't let up now. Georgia's teachers and students are counting on us.

Together with my colleagues on @EdWorkforceDems, I'm fighting against Republican attempts to raise health care costs and gut coverage. As a two-time breast cancer survivor, I understand how important it is to have affordable and accessible health care.

New today in the Georgia Sun 🍑 "Georgia schools will soon get some relief... This comes after strong pressure from Georgia’s Rep. Lucy McBath and other lawmakers." "The partial release shows the power of bipartisan pressure and public outcry." thegeorgiasun.com/family/educati…

Reminding gun owners to secure their guns is no different than reminding drivers to buckle up — it’s commonsense. I introduced the Gun Safety Incentive Act with @RepAndreCarson & @RepLucyMcBath that includes a 10% tax credit for certified gun safes. robinkelly.house.gov/media-center/p…

I'm proud to stand up for Georgia’s students and for families across America. Today’s decision is a triumph for children who rely on these programs to learn, grow, and succeed. Every child, no matter their ZIP code, deserves access to a high-quality education.…

Our students and families deserve to have access to high-quality public education programs. No more excuses. It's past time for the Trump Administration to release the illegally withheld $7 billion in federal funding.

Delighted to spend the morning at the Good Samaritan Center of Douglas County and hear about their work to keep Atlanta healthy and nourished. Thanks for having me—we appreciate all you do!

Today, Chairman @RepWalberg and @RepLucyMcBath introduced bipartisan, bicameral legislation in the House to address human trafficking and refer suspected crimes to law enforcement. @SenJonHusted and @SenatorSlotkin introduced the bill's Senate companion. More on the Enhancing…

Last week's budget passed by Republicans will cut food assistance to families across America. No child should worry about where their next meal will come from. I visited @AgapeAtl to help serve lunch to summer camp students and stay in touch with some of my youngest…

I was pleased to sit down with officials from the City of South Fulton @COSFGA to discuss how federal programs can support their goals and priorities. At a time when many funding mechanisms are under attack, I am committed to uplifting every opportunity to assist the cities and…

As search and rescue efforts continue in Texas, my heart breaks for families who are grieving the loss of a loved one and for all those who have been impacted by the flood. I am grateful for the continued efforts of public safety officials working around the clock.

I voted NO on the Republican megabill because health care is personal to me, as it is for so many in this country. Something as sacred as our family’s health should not be used as a bargaining chip. Everyone deserves the chance to live a long and healthy life—this bill takes us…

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY, @RepJeffries) concludes his record-setting floor speech (8 hrs. 44 min.): "No matter the outcome on this single day, we're going to press on...we're going to press on for our children, press on for our seniors, press on for our…
