Congresswoman Sarah McBride

I'm wishing all in Delaware who are celebrating today a blessed Kwanzaa, centered on culture, family, and community. May this time be one of reflection, unity, and hope.

Wishing the First State a Merry Christmas, surrounded by loved ones and filled with joy and renewed hope. As we come together this season, we also hold in our hearts those missing from our gatherings this year—family, friends, neighbors, and those who serve our communities. May this Christmas inspire care and compassion for one another, today and always.

Every day, Delaware law enforcement puts their lives on the line — a fact that this senseless act of violence tragically reinforces. My prayers are with the family, friends, and colleagues of the State Trooper killed while defending Delawareans today at the DMV. Let us never become numb to the pain and loss that violence leaves behind. This holiday season, there will be a family mourning a loved one who, today, woke …

One of the greatest privileges of my time in Congress has been serving with—and learning from—@SpeakerPelosi. She’s become a friend, a mentor, and a confidante. It’s almost impossible to put into words the impact she’s had on our party and on me personally. She’s inspired a new generation of leaders to serve, and has never wavered in her fight for truth, opportunity, and equality—the pillars of a stronger, fairer Am…

It’s official—this is the longest government shutdown in American history. The only way out is for Republicans in Congress to come to the negotiating table and tackle the real problems Americans are facing—the cost of living, skyrocketing health care premiums, and an administration that’s focused on bathrooms and ballrooms.

The numbers Trump is referring to:

I know there’s a lot of bad news right now, but here’s something good: a bipartisan coalition stopped a provision that would have stripped federal funding from the Delaware River Basin Commission. Delawareans sent me to Congress to protect our communities, our economy, and our health—and I’m proud to have helped ensure the Commission can keep doing that vital work.

Congress is back in session and here’s three big things that you need to know: 1️⃣ Government funding runs out Sept 30. If there’s a shutdown, it’s because Republicans choose Trump’s cruel agenda over the American people. 2️⃣ The Epstein Files: I’ve signed onto a bipartisan discharge petition to force a vote on their release. We need 218 signatures—stay tuned. 3️⃣ Trump is abusing executive power—ramping up the Nati…

On Labor Day, we honor the generations of working people and labor unions who fought for rights we too often take for granted—safer workplaces, fair pay and benefits, and yes, even the weekend. But our work is far from done—and Trump’s attacks on workers and unions make clear just how much we must defend. I’ll continue to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with working people across Delaware and across the country: defendin…

I was honored to host @GabbyGiffords in Wilmington to talk about how Delaware has made historic progress in combating gun violence—and how the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress are undermining our safety. As Gabby says, stopping gun violence takes courage—and together, we can turn that courage into action that can save lives.

It’s been 60 years since President Johnson signed Medicare and Medicaid into law—two landmark programs that have empowered working families, older Americans, and our most vulnerable for generations. Instead of building on that legacy, Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans just pushed through their budget that includes the largest cut to Medicaid in American history—and paves the way for Medicare cuts down the l…

June is Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month. I was proud to meet with Delawareans recently to thank them for their advocacy on behalf of individuals and families affected by Alzheimer’s and dementia—and to reaffirm my commitment to advancing research, caregiver support, and culturally competent training for primary care providers.
