U.S. Representative for New York's 5th District

Rep. Gregory Meeks @meeks.house.gov Oct 23

I had the honor of returning to my Alma Mater to talk about what’s happening in Congress and the importance of youth civic engagement. It is always inspiring to hear from young students at “the Mecca”. Thank you to President Wayne Frederick for bringing us all together.

RM Meeks: Rubio is firing or sidelining career diplomats in favor of loyalists. Not meritocracy, but MAGA nepotism. Personnel decisions based on political litmus tests are blatantly illegal and do real harm to national security. Congress and State OIG must investigate—I’m working to ensure that.

Freedom to worship and practice your faith without fear is part of America’s promise. That promise includes our Indian-American and Hindu-practicing brothers and sisters.

Under no circumstances can white supremacy and hate be tolerated in our democracy.

Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi @congressmanraja.bsky.social

My family and I were worshipping at our Hindu temple in Aurora on Sunday when a white supremacist attempted a mass shooting targeting Indian Americans. I'm grateful to those who prevented a tragedy, but we must all come together to confront the hatred that put so many innocent lives at risk.

I’m deeply disturbed by ICE agents shooting an unarmed man in the Bronx, especially with a 5-year-old in the vehicle. I demand a full independent investigation, with all facts and footage made public. I stand with my fellow New Yorkers during this difficult time.

Today, I joined Ranking Member Joe Morelle, Rep. Grace Meng, Rep. Paul Tonko, and Rep. Adriano Espaillat to host a hearing on election security. We heard from voting rights experts about recent attempts to restrict access to the ballot and weaken confidence in our elections in NY and across America.
