Democrats introduced 32 amendments to the Republican budget that would have:
—Rejected extreme cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, and programs that Americans rely on
—Kept billionaires and big corporations from getting $4.5 trillion in tax breaks
—Protect the Affordable Care Act from Republican attempts to weaken and repeal it
—Stopped Republicans from rolling back legislation to lower prescription drug prices for American families
—Ensure kids, seniors, Americans with disabilities, and those in need can continue receiving care and food assistance
—Kept Elon Musk from accessing your private data
Republicans rejected every single one.
BREAKING: Rep. @MaxwellFrostFL and Senator @ChrisMurphyCT are REINTRODUCING the Office of Gun Violence Prevention because our lives are on the line. No more thoughts and prayers. We refuse to let politicians play games while our generation gets gunned down. Call your reps NOW.
Sheryl Crow sells her Tesla and donates the proceeds to NPR.
“My parents always said... you are who you hang out with. There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla."
🚨BREAKING: VA slashes 1000 jobs of disabled veterans, military spouses & medical researchers in massive cuts. $98M in claimed "savings" = longer wait times & reduced care for veterans. This isn't reform - it's a reckless abandonment of those who served.
President Trump just fired:
• 90 physicians
• 350 nurses
• at least 25 nurse practitioners
• nearly 20 dentists
• 85+ pharmacists
• 45 lab techs
All employed by the Indian Health Service to provide health care. This is going to have dangerous consequences for our Indigenous brothers and sisters.

Now that they're in power, Republicans have stopped pretending that they're not going to cut Social Security.
They're coming for your social security checks.
They're coming for your retirement.
This was always the plan.
Elon Musk spent $300 million to get Trump elected—so he could *checks notes* fire middle-class Americans who make sure Veterans get healthcare.
Because nothing says "populist revolution" like mass layoffs for the people actually serving those who served.
The First Amendment is the bedrock of our democracy, and we know that a democracy only truly works when its citizens are properly informed.
But right now, both free speech and a free press are under attack by this administration and Trump’s billionaire buddy – Elon Musk.
I will always vote to protect due process and the rule of law, and I stand ready to work on serious immigration reform whenever our GOP colleagues are ready to do so.
My statement on H.R. 35 ⬇️
I was pleased to join @DelcoCouncil for a forum on recent executive orders targeting the immigrant community as we work together to dispel misinformation and make sure that Delco residents know their rights.
More evidence that the Trump/Musk cuts to federal workforce are dangerous and uninformed — they reportedly cut the workers who manage our nuclear stockpiles and systems. https://t.co/7Vveil0dmA
If Republicans want to shut down the Department of Education, bring a bill to the floor. Show your constituents that you want to destroy public education. Don't make an unelected billionaire do it illegally because you're too afraid of being on record.
Donald Trump is accumulating more and more power into his own hands.
He is usurping Congress and challenging the courts in a way that has never been done before.
This country is the longest standing democracy on earth. We cannot let Trump to take us into authoritarianism.
7 years go and it seems like a lifetime has passed and like it was just yesterday still. Please remember that in every single on of these shootings the victims are human beings with families, friends and loved ones. They are not numbers. Time passes but the pain doesn’t.
Roughly 1 in 10 Veterans relies on Medicaid.
Trump and Republicans are eyeing $2.3 trillion in cuts that would strip healthcare from millions—including those who’ve served.
They claim to support Veterans, but their actions prove otherwise.
