ICYMI This Week: Rep. Meeks Celebrates Funding for Public Health and Holds Trump Accountable

I had the pleasure of joining Joseph P. Addabbo for a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate their facility’s new extension. I was proud to secure $1.5 million in funding through Community Project Funding to help make this vision a reality. This expansion will increase efficiency, expand specialty care for patients, and offer additional space for education programs. While Republicans threaten our communities with cuts to vital health care services, I will continue fighting to protect centers like Addabbo Family Health Center. 

I signed a discharge petition that would force a vote in the House to protect Medicaid and food assistance like SNAP from receiving cuts under the Republican-led budget plan. Read my release, here.

Trump’s reckless tariffs are crashing the economy and raising prices for American families. Congress must regain authority over tariffs as the Constitution intended it to be. 

I’d like to hear from my constituents about how the Trump administration’s actions have affected you and your loved ones. Over the past few months, we’ve witnessed mass layoffs across government agencies, executive orders impacting various issues, threats against immigrants, potential tariffs on neighboring countries, and much more. 

 
My office is working with state and local officials to learn more about how these actions could affect our district and provide resources for people who have been affected. Please complete the form here to explain how these actions are affecting you and the organizations, nonprofits and businesses you support.
