Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos shouldn't be paying the same amount in Social Security tax as someone making $175,000 a year.
Billionaires are not paying their fair share.
Please urge your own Representative to vote against the Balanced Budget Amendment #BBA when it is considered by the #House this week! It would be devastating to all domestic programs, but particularly #SocialSecurity, #Medicare & #Medicaid https://t.co/pZLzaBZjvr
We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.
The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.
Don’t give up the ship.
Sadly, House Republicans today will approve legislation that will slash #Medicaid and #snap to partly pay for a tax cut that mainly benefits the wealthy and large corporations. The bill will add more than $3.3 trillion to the national debt.
This is the cruelest bill I've seen since I came to Congress. No one should vote for taking away health care, driving up energy costs, and messing with our environment on the dime of working people.
Thank you @RepYassAnsari for including me in your townhall tonight to discuss the GOP plan to cut #Medicaid and #SNAP to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy and large corporations. @NCPSSM
I’m in Central Phoenix tonight to hear directly from constituents about how Trump and Republicans’ attacks on Medicaid and food assistance will harm Arizona families.

Mr. President, we would all applaud if you found cures to horrific dieases.
But how do you expect to accomplish that when you're cutting funding from the NIH?
Shows the phony fraud claims #Musk has made regarding #SocialSecurity are part of a campaign to undermine popular support for the program & cut benefits: https://t.co/HUAGdryPnb
The first time President Obama met with his US Attorneys, he told us, “I appointed you but you don’t serve me. You serve the American people. And I expect you to act with independence & integrity.” None of us ever forgot that.
@BeckyDouglas957@NCPSSM Thanks, Becky. Rs in districts in which Harris-Walz won will feel the heat from these unpopular cut proposals and that may be enough to take back the House and maybe the Senate.
Overwhelming majorities of Americans of all political affiliations oppose #GOP plans to cut #Medicaid, #Medicare and roll back #Rx price reform. @NCPSSM
NEW: A giant, radical memo from House Budget Committee Republicans was recently leaked.
It’s a menu of all the tax breaks they want to give to the wealthy and corporations—and all the stuff they could cut to pay for it.
Everything you need to know, a thread 🧵
Ted Cruz is trying to weaken the bill repealing the WEP & GPO provisions of Social Security. He wants to reduce the bill's impact and CUT BENEFITS for some. Public sector workers deserve their full #SocialSecurity benefits. https://t.co/R5oVI6ucoI #tedcruz#WEP#GPO@SenateDems
Our podcast guest worked for @BernieSanders & now advocates for public sector employees at @AFGENational. Jeff Cruz is at the forefront of the fight to repeal #WEP & #GPO. He also has some hot takes on the election. LISTEN: https://t.co/tkuR2mlbgG
