Trump claims to be pro-trucker and pro-farmer, but his energy policies and foreign conflicts are driving up fuel costs.

Republicans voted to redraw my district in 2022.

For more than three decades, the people of Mississippi’s Second District have chosen me to represent them. Now Republicans want to redraw it again for political gain.

Voters should decide who represents them, not politicians.

Trump and House Republicans are creating chaos because they're scared of losing in November.

25 years after 9/11, we cannot be complacent.

I am calling on Republicans to hold a hearing on the increased threats we face under Trump and demand DHS Secretary Mullin and FBI Director Patel testify.

Threats are evolving rapidly, and the American people deserve answers.

71 years ago today, 14-year-old Emmett Till was lynched in Mississippi.

It was a tragedy that sparked the flame for the Civil Rights Movement.

As we mark this solemn anniversary, we reflect on the brutal terror of lynching and remember that the fight for justice continues every day.
