Press Releases

Congressman Danny K. Davis today announced that he has been appointed
to serve again on the Committee on Ways and Means. He will be a
member of the Subcommittee on Health and the Subcommittee on Human
Resources. He has also filed for a waiver to continue service on the
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform to continue his work on
postal reform.

This one-year, retroactive extension is not ideal. It is simply a band-aid for the 2014 tax year and does nothing to provide certainty to individuals and businesses for 2015.

I am deeply dismayed and concerned by the decision of the grand jury not to indict Ferguson, Missouri Police Officer Darren Wilson in the shooting of Michael Brown. Based on my interaction with constituents I expect that many thousands of others share that response and will express their concerns in peaceful public protests.

The cease fire between the Israeli and Palestinian forces seems to be holding . . . for the time being. That is a very good thing, but it is clear that the cease fire itself is not a blue print for a sustainable peace. If there is to be a sustainable peace, and there must be one, then the process must move forward, in the first place by the parties themselves.
