Caucuses

  • Future Forum -- I founded and am Chairman Emeritus of Future Forum, a group of young Democratic Members of Congress focused on issues and opportunities for millennial Americans.
  • Congressional Critical Materials Caucus -- I founded and co-chair the bipartisan Congressional Critical Materials Caucus to help the United States develop the technical expertise and production capabilities to assure a long-term, secure and sustainable supply of critical materials used in manufacturing advanced technologies including cell phones, laptops, jet engines, gas and wind turbines, nuclear reactors, solar panels, and more. A shortage of these materials could significantly impede Americans' ability to afford and use these technologies and would hurt both our global competitiveness and our national security.
  • Congressional Personalized Medicine Caucus -- I founded and co-chair the bicameral, bipartisan Congressional Personalized Medicine Caucus, to expand support for, and knowledge of, personalized medicine. Personalized medicine, also known as precision or individualized medicine, is an emerging field that utilizes genetic and genomic testing to help improve patient diagnoses and customize medical treatments. By combining this information with patient records, values, and individual circumstances, physicians can work with patients to come up with comprehensive and holistic treatment plans that are best suited for them.
