Congressman Greg Casar

Representing #TX35 from East Austin to West San Antonio. Chair of @USProgressives. Labor organizer. Lover of migas and long runs, just not at the same time.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

With every discharge petition, we send a message: the Speaker may hold the gavel, but in the United States of America working people are still in charge.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

Americans marched and bled and died for the right to form a union.

This week the House passed the Faster Labor Contracts Act — one step towards making that right real for all workers.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

Surveillance pricing should be illegal.

I have a bill to ban it.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

NEW: DoorDash has patented a system that lets companies offer promotional deals based on how stressed you are.

States are passing bans against surveillance pricing, and Big Tech is spending big to crush them.

We uncovered the $13K wine-and-dine that defanged Maryland’s ban.

The day after threatening to cut Social Security and Medicare, Republicans are sending billions to Trump’s mass deportation machine – which still has $100 billion sitting in the bank.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

In the final months of their House majority, House Republicans are doubling down on their failed approach: blank checks for ICE and not one cent to make things cheaper for working families.

[Lisa Desjardins @LisaDNews]

BREAKING: House passes $70 billion in funding for ICE and CBP, making both subagencies immune from shutdowns and future funding battles for three years.
(Unless Congress passes rescissions.)

The vote was as close as it could be: 214-212.

New data shows billionaires have tripled their net worth in the past 15 years.

From $4.5 trillion to $14.2 trillion.

Is your life 3 times better than it was 15 years ago?

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

I just introduced a bill to make overtime pay more for the first time in nearly 90 years.

If you work more than 40 hours a week, you should get paid double for the extra time.

I’m working with @RepJayapal and @RepHorsford to get it done.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

Absolutely not. 

AI spends millions to help Republicans in elections.

In return, Republicans stop states from protecting you from AI. 

It’s corruption – and it’s dangerous.

$2 trillion+ for billionaire tax cuts. 

A $70 billion blank check for ICE and CBP.

$1.8 billion for J6 rioters.

Now they say we need to cut Medicare and Social Security.

[FactPost @factpostnews]

Mike Johnson admits Republicans will cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security next year

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

What if the end of the season meant saying goodbye to your team forever?

When billionaire owners move teams to make a buck, that’s what fans face.

That’s why @SenSanders and I introduced the Home Team Act.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

What would you do with an extra $750?

That’s what Trump’s war in Iran has cost every American.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

Why is Trump telling you what computer to buy?

Corruption.

Here are the facts —>

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

This guy might be the most dangerous Trump crony you haven’t heard of.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

Billionaire team owners keep getting richer while fans keep getting screwed.

It's why the Bears may leave Chicago.

It's also why @SenSanders and I introduced the Home Team Act — requiring team owners to offer locals the chance to buy a team before moving it away.

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

Statement from Chairman George H. McCaskey and President & CEO Kevin Warren:

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

There's breaking news about AI and your job that you need to know about.

[Congresswoman Chellie Pingree @chelliepingree]

I was a HELL YES.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

BREAKING: The House just passed a War Powers Resolution to end Trump's illegal war.

Both houses of Congress have now passed bipartisan resolutions demanding the war end.

The Constitution gives Congress, not the president, power to declare war.

Trump must end this war now.

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

I brought AOC tortillas from H-E-B.

They make people feel better after a tough night, and that's what the Spurs are going to give Knicks fans tonight.

Go Spurs go!

[Congressman Greg Casar @RepCasar]

The men and women you’ve sent to risk their lives in a reckless war of choice are “in the arena.”

You’re talking to some senators.

[Department of State @StateDept]

No fear in the arena.
