Rep. Joyce Beatty

Today, I announced over $5.6 million in funding, that I secured to invest in community projects in Central Ohio. These dollars will support diverse initiatives that serve so many corners of Columbus. 🔗Learn more here: https://bit.ly/3LP4xGq

On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we celebrate the rich cultures and contributions of Native Americans and Tribal Nations, and recognize their enduring resilience. We must honor Indigenous voices, protect their heritage, and ensure their stories are never forgotten.

This is a big investment for my district in Central Ohio. Bayer’s $2.2 billion investment means 600 new jobs and more opportunity for our families. www.dispatch.com/story/busine...

This is exactly why I introduced the Voter Purge Protection Act. No eligible American should be wrongly kicked off the voter rolls because of faulty data or an unjustified purge. The right to vote is sacred. We should be protecting it—not putting it at risk. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/u...

On 9/11, we honor the lives lost, the heroes who served, and the families forever changed by the attacks that took place on September 11, 2001. Twenty-five years later, we are committed to remembering their courage and their sacrifice. Never forget.

This Labor Day, we celebrate the hardworking Americans who keep our country moving forward. They deserve leadership that puts them and their families first. I’ll continue fighting for America’s working families—today and every day.

We have lost an absolute champion for women’s rights in Gloria Steinem. A proud Ohioan and lifelong advocate for gender equity, she taught us that anything is possible when women are at the table. She will be deeply missed, and her legacy will endure.

Trump’s dehumanizing immigration policy has taken the life of this brilliant young student. Say his name: Pierre Damas Bel.

Republican policies = skyrocketing prices for EVERYONE‼️

Trump’s threatening to destroy the Kennedy Center if his name isn’t on it. The Center belongs to the American people — and we won’t be intimidated. 🔗More here:

Back-to-school supplies are more expensive than ever in Trump’s economy — hurting families, students, and educators✏️

Our fight isn’t over. More here⬇️

A WIN for voting rights in Ohio‼️ Access to the ballot box should be more accessible — not less. 🗳️

Trump’s obsession with erasing Black culture needs to be studied.

Costs are skyrocketing. Debt is rising. Families are struggling. That’s what happens when the White House doesn’t care about affordability.

This is corruption - and a huge step back for America’s voting rights.

The 19th Amendment paved the way for women to make their voices heard at the ballot box and claim their power in our political system. That right was hard-won. Now, it’s under attack.

Once again, Trump’s Iran war is hurting families, not helping them.

Black voters want competent leaders that bring costs down and support all Americans. That is NOT Trump.

61 years ago, the VRA was signed into law, expanding voting rights for millions of Americans. Now, those same rights are under attack. Congress must pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to strengthen these protections and safeguard our democracy. PROTECT VOTING RIGHTS.✊🏾

This is disgusting and dehumanizing. Our Haitian neighbors are beloved in Ohio and they deserve to be treated with respect. Shame on this Administration.

Americans don’t care about Patriot Games. They care about lowering costs and making America affordable for their families.

Head Start is a vital program that invests in the well being of children and their families. Trump’s disregard for America’s children is unbelievable.

The Kennedy Center BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE.

🚨Trump’s war is making our economy WORSE.

Today marks the anniversary of the signing of Medicare and Medicaid into law—landmark programs that have expanded health care access. Yet, Republicans are trying to strip these programs from Americans. I’m recommitting myself to the fight to protect the people that rely on this lifesaving care.🏥

In what world is this a proper use of taxpayer funds??

In what world is this a proper use of taxpayer funds??

🚨Trump has officially ENDED a critical affordable health care program, leaving seniors to deal with more expensive prescriptions in 2027. Destroying critical care for seniors? That’s NOT the future Americans were promised.

Trump might not know what affordability is — but hardworking Americans do.

Come midterms, Democrats will take over Congress and restore an affordable America.

The facts are clear: Trump is making life easier for billion-dollar corporations, while making it harder for working people.

A win for voting rights. Let’s keep the fight.💪🏾

Trump’s reckless cuts to FDA and CDC have made our food unsafe, and now Americans are suffering.

Billions wasted. American lives lost. Democrats are reining Trump in.

The Trump administration wants vulnerable young women to have less options instead of more.

Who’s going to the Ohio State Fair?👀🎡

Today is Black Women’s Equal Pay Day. Black women have long been told we have to work twice as hard for less—and far too often, that’s still the reality. I’m proud to cosponsor the Black Women’s Equal Pay Day Resolution because equal work deserves equal pay. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay

This is voter intimidation at its worst. Election officials and our democracy deserve protection.

Heartbroken by the loss of three courageous American service members in Jordan. I am keeping their families and loved ones in my thoughts during this difficult time. Together, we honor their service, sacrifice, and memory.

Trump’s election claims last night were self-serving, dangerous, and put our democracy at risk. And the ‘SAVE’ Act won’t protect our elections—it’s a voter suppression bill that creates more barriers to the ballot box.

Today, I remember my dear friend and colleague, Congressman John Lewis, and recommit to getting into “good trouble” in defense of our democracy. Thank you, John. We will carry your legacy forward.

Todd Blanche’s terrible leadership of Trump’s corrupt DOJ, has already put Americans at risk. He’s only loyal to Trump’s agenda - not the rule of law. The Senate must reject his confirmation.

The Black community has made incredible progress since the civil rights era, but it’s people like this that want to take us back👇🏾

Acting CFPB Director Vought doesn’t know what the Office of Minority and Women Inclusion (OMWI) is— how embarrassing. Every community deserves a seat at the table. The CFPB is required to have an OMWI, and I’m not letting this administration neglect people who need equitable policies.

They can put Trump on a $1 coin, but can’t keep a decades-old promise to put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill??? This Treasury is funding presidential vanity projects.

Why does Trump’s Department of War get $350 billion while families face SNAP cuts, healthcare losses, and higher prices? Who is this budget really for?

High interest rates and rising housing costs are putting homeownership further out of reach for working families. Today in the Financial Services Committee, I pressed Fed Chair Kevin Warsh on the Fed's role in mortgage affordability — because all Americans deserve a fair shot at a stable home.

So DEI is wrong, but nepotism and corruption aren’t?
