Rep. Meeks Honors Gun Violence Awareness Month
|
I joined my colleagues this week in wearing orange to honor victims and survivors of gun violence. Thoughts and prayers are not enough. Americans want real action that makes our communities safer. Democrats will never stop fighting for commonsense gun safety laws.

Reps. Meeks Discusses Affordable Health Care and Workforce Needs with New York Providers
|
It was great meeting with the NYS Health Facilities Association and NYS Center for Assisted Living to discuss key health care priorities such as the skilled nursing workforce shortage and the future of Medicare Advantage. One of my top priorities in Congress is making affordable health care accessible to every resident in my district.

Rep. Meeks Applauds Passage of Sudan Legislation in Committee Markup
|
“Sudan remains the largest and most devastating humanitarian crisis in the world due to the ongoing, brutal conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. Our legislation – which yesterday passed through the committee’s markup – would mandate sanctions on those perpetrating atrocities across Sudan, require the U.S. government to develop a strategy for protecting civilians and delivering desperately needed humanitarian assistance, and extend the U.S. Special Envoy for Sudan’s mandate to give this war the attention it requires.
“While more is needed to address the critical role external actors play in fueling Sudan’s conflict, the U.S. Engagement in Sudanese Peace Act sends a powerful signal that the U.S. has not forgotten the Sudanese people and remains committed to bringing their suffering and this conflict to a sustainable end. The Trump administration must use any and all leverage to do so. We look forward to bringing this bill to the House floor, where we are confident it will pass with broad bipartisan support.”
