Congressman Meeks Votes to Release the Epstein Files
|
I voted to require the Trump administration to release the full Epstein Files. Survivors deserve justice and the American people deserve the truth. We'll see if Trump honors the law, but one thing is clear: I will keep fighting to hold anyone involved accountable for these crimes - no matter how wealthy or well-connected they are.

Congressional Leaders Urge Secretary Rubio to Increase Support to Jamaica After Hurricane Melissa
|
The members sent a letter to Secretary of State Marco Rubio urging U.S. engagement in support of Jamaica’s recovery and electrical infrastructure reconstruction following Hurricane Melissa.
"This presents both a strategic opportunity and a vulnerability for U.S. interests,” the lawmakers wrote. “If Jamaica must rely on foreign expertise, financing, and equipment to rebuild its electrical grid, the United States should encourage competitive opportunities for American firms and workers to provide such support. Otherwise, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) will seize this opening. PRC state-owned enterprises have invested billions in Latin American and Caribbean infrastructure to establish strategic footholds in the region—owning the electrical infrastructure of a nation just 600 miles from U.S. shores would provide Beijing with significant economic and political leverage in the Caribbean.”

Congressmembers Unveil War Powers Resolution to stop Trump's Boat Strike
|
The members introduced a War Powers Resolution to block the Trump Administration from continuing to use U.S. Armed Forces to conduct strikes in the Caribbean and the eastern Pacific, operations the administration has carried out for more than 60 days without congressional authorization.
“The Trump Administration has not provided a credible rationale for its 21 unauthorized military strikes on vessels in the Western Hemisphere, which have resulted in the extrajudicial killings of dozens of individuals. Nor has this administration explained why it has deployed an invasion-level force of roughly 15,000 troops, a carrier strike group, and military aircraft for a mission it claims is about counter-narcotics. This posture is wildly disproportionate to the stated objective and far more reminiscent of preparations for war.”
