House Budget Committee Democrats

Fighting for budget priorities that reflect the values of families across the country.

NEW: Donald Trump and Republicans are executing a ruthless plot to take health care away from hardworking Americans.

Millions will lose coverage. Millions more will pay higher costs.

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

Regular Americans are working hard and getting less, as inflation eats away at their earnings.

This is a flashing red light for the health of our economy.

"Donald Trump said he's done a 'very bad job' explaining the economy. Families who can't afford groceries or housing don't need it explained to them."

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

Under Donald Trump, the dream of homeownership is becoming further out of reach for too many Americans.

I'm willing to work with anyone who's serious about lowering costs for families and getting our national debt under control.

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

For the cost of his Iran war, Trump could have extended the enhanced Affordable Care Act tax credits and kept premiums down for millions of Americans.

But everyone knows he doesn't actually care about lowering costs.

This president only offers publicity stunts and forever wars.

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

Americans are sick and tired of President Trump subjecting them to his taxpayer-funded vanity projects.

Americans deserve a president who cares more about lowering their costs than promoting himself.

"While Trump builds himself a gilded ballroom, his Iran war, his tariff taxes, and his health care cuts have made life in America even more expensive for working families."

"No president has the authority to ignore Congress and unilaterally cancel funding that was signed into law."

Ranking Member @CongBoyle's statement on the nonpartisan GAO's decision that Trump's pocket rescission is illegal:

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

President Trump would have you think he's a king — that he can cancel federal programs established by law and instead spend your taxes on whatever he wants.

My Congressional Power of the Purse Act would stop Trump's power grabs and hold him accountable.

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

We haven't seen such low approval for a president on the economy since the Great Recession in 2008.

But it's not a mystery why — under Trump the cost of basic needs are rising out of control, and homeownership is out of reach for too many Americans.

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

American families are paying so much more for basic essentials than when Trump took office.

Instead of helping, he has made things worse by waging war in Iran and imposing costly new tariffs.

He only has himself and his failed policies to blame.

“Donald Trump knows he can't get these cuts through Congress, so he is illegally making them through the back door.”

Ranking Member @CongBoyle on the Trump Administration's pocket rescission:

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

When you see your health care premiums rise, you can thank Republicans in Washington.

Over the last year and a half, they have decided they'd rather enrich billionaires and wage war in Iran than lower your costs.

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

As the top Democrat on @HouseBudgetDems, the next vote I'll take on the debt ceiling is to put an end to its dysfunction once and for all.

My commonsense reform has bipartisan support.

Even President Trump agrees reforms are needed to avoid economic catastrophe.

[Rep. Brendan Boyle @CongBoyle]

If Republicans actually cared about waste, fraud, and abuse, they would start by asking the President why he’s enriched himself and his family off the presidency.

Instead, they’d rather rip health care away from Americans while Trump continues to grift.
