Delaware's Congresswoman. This is her government X account.

There’s a pattern with Donald Trump: the powerful get their way and this administration covers for them.
BREAKING: Speaker Johnson is sending the House home early to dodge a vote on releasing the Epstein Files. For Congressional Republicans, transparency isn’t a principle—it’s an inconvenience.
I’m deeply saddened to learn of the passing of 1st Lt. Ray Firmani. A World War II veteran and cherished member of our community, Ray was a true patriot. He carried our values with him wherever he went, always honoring his fellow veterans and servicemembers with deep respect and…
I've got more big news for you, Delaware: the House just passed the bipartisan legislation I'm co-leading—the Equal Opportunity for All Investors Act! Access to capital continues to be a major obstacle for so many entrepreneurs who want to start their own businesses. I'm eager…
⏰ 🚨 I took to the floor to urge my colleagues to pass my bipartisan bill—the Equal Opportunity for All Investors Act. It’s a commonsense fix that opens the door for entrepreneurs that have been historically shut out from starting a small business.
$3.4 trillion added to the national debt. This is fiscal responsibility, @SpeakerJohnson?
NEW -- CBO has a new cost estimate for OBBB. The law will add $3.4T to the budget deficit over the next 10 years, CBO says. CBO: "That increase in the deficit is estimated to result from a decrease in direct spending of $1.1 trillion and an decrease in revenues of $4.5…
Big news, Delaware: My bipartisan provision to bring jobs to our state and lower energy costs passed the House! It will lead to millions of dollars in investment in innovative technologies—developed right here in Delaware—that make data centers more environmentally sustainable.…
I’ve been going to the Delaware State Fair in Harrington since high school! It was great to be back yesterday, supporting our ag community and sharing good times with friends like Delaware Secretary of Agriculture Don Clifton and former Secretary Michael Scuse! 🎡
Republicans in Congress now own the health care system—so let’s call it what it is: Trumpcare. With their disastrous budget bill, they planted a ticking time bomb right in the middle of the American health care system—and it’s set to go off in 2027. The result? Millions more…
I was proud to meet with advocates from the Delaware Coalition Against Domestic Violence recently who shared their stories of struggle and strength. They are using their voices to push for housing protections and funding for programs and services that keep women and families…
In Delaware, neighbors look out for one another. But the GOP’s Big Ugly Bill slashes SNAP for thousands of working families. It betrays our values—as a state and a nation. We won’t stop fighting until no child, no family, goes hungry.
Count me in.
We all deserve to know what’s in the Epstein files, who’s implicated, and how deep this corruption goes. Americans were promised justice and transparency. We’re introducing a discharge petition to force a vote in the US House of Representatives on releasing the COMPLETE files.
The State Department admits that they cut 71% of the staff at the Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking—and claim that it's because monitoring the crisis of trafficking was "redundant." If anything, the crisis persists because we don't have a clear enough picture of how…
I made it clear to my colleagues before the House voted on Trump’s Big Ugly Bill: rural hospitals won’t just struggle under it—they’ll shut down. No one should die because their local hospital couldn’t keep its doors open. But that’s now the reality we’re facing because of the…
I was excited to meet with Community Legal Aid Society (CLASI) this week for a thoughtful conversation on equality and justice. CLASI provides free or low-cost legal help to our neighbors across Delaware—and I’m always grateful to hear about the progress they make each day, and…
About 37,000 Delawareans are now at risk of facing devastating food assistance cuts because of Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill—which makes it easier for billionaires to buy a private jet than for working people to put food on the table. Alongside @ChrisCoons, @SenLBR, and partners…
Grateful to all the Delawareans who stopped by our Mobile Office Hours in Lewes recently. Whether it’s getting your Social Security benefits or tracking down your federal tax refund—we’re here to help. If you need a hand, don’t hesitate to reach out at mcbride.house.gov.
Every time a patient loses health care coverage because of the Big Ugly Bill, Congressional Republicans will own it. Every time a rural hospital or community health center shuts down, Congressional Republicans will own it. Every time someone—on Medicaid or private…
