This is a message I got from a constituent in Watertown, WI. Republicans are raising her health care costs by nearly $2,000/year! This is completely unaffordable for her.
I’m fighting to make sure this👇🏻 doesn’t happen.

We need to lower folks’ costs – not raise them. But these are the prices that many Wisconsinites will have to pay next year if Republicans keep refusing to act and jack up their health care costs.
Trump could feed hungry families if he wanted to. He is CHOOSING not to and instead using them as a bargaining chip.
Come Saturday, when families find out their food stamps have been taken away, they’ll know who to blame.
🚨NEW🚨Wisconsinites don’t have to wait until Saturday to see how much Republicans are going to raise their health care costs in 2026. Right now, families can log onto healthcare.gov and see it for themselves. 👇🏻
So let me get this straight: Donald Trump sent $20 BILLION (in U.S. taxpayer dollars) to help his friend out in Argentina, but refuses — yes, he is literally refusing — to use funds available to make sure food keeps flowing to hungry families across America.
This is appalling.
You are reading that right. Some Wisconsinites could pay $30,000 more next year for the exact same health insurance.
My Republican colleagues still have a chance to stop this – the time to act is now.
This is good news for Wisconsinites who believe women have the right to control their bodies and futures.
But make no mistake, Republicans keep coming after women’s freedoms. I won’t back down from this fight. www.wpr.org/news/planned...
I guess cutting billions from SNAP in his Big Ugly Bill wasn’t enough for Trump. Now, he’s choosing —yes, this is a choice — to not give families the critical food assistance they need to feed their families.
The Trump Administration is leaving Wisconsin communities to fend for themselves by denying them federal assistance. No community can pick up these pieces alone. I’m calling on this Administration to step up to the plate and help Wisconsinites who need it. www.nbc26.com/doorcounty/i...
On Nov. 1st, Wisconsinites will be able to view their 2026 health care premiums on healthcare.gov and see how much Republicans are raising their health care costs by.
We’re a week away from that happening, and Republicans still have no plan to fix this mess they’ve created.
Our farmers and ranchers do understand, Mr. President.
They understand that this administration is prioritizing giving favors to the President of Argentina – not them – and that their businesses will suffer because of this.
We’re now on Day #23 of the Republican government shutdown — the second-longest in history, behind Trump’s last shutdown — and Republicans are STILL refusing to come to the table.
These guys just don’t care that Americans’ health care costs are about to skyrocket – but I do.
Let me get this straight, Trump is:
💰Asking the government to pay him $230 million
🏰Spending $250 million to build himself a ballroom
🇦🇷Sending $20 billion to Argentina
But, he is refusing to lower your health care costs. Trump is showing you his priorities.
Families in Wisconsin are already being squeezed by high costs – and I refuse to add to that burden and let their health care costs skyrocket too. That’s why I’m not backing down from this fight.
The only way to get us out of this mess is for Democrats and Republicans to sit down together and negotiate a solution. So why, on Day #19 of Trump’s shutdown, are Republicans still refusing to do that?
Heartbreaking words from one of my constituents: "It's money I don't have, I just finished my soybean harvest and as I do the math I'm currently losing $85 an acre… and now I have to worry about if I can afford health insurance." www.wqow.com/news/politic...
So... Republicans were totally fine giving big tax breaks to their wealthy friends, but have drawn the line at tax breaks for working families to afford health care.
This is exactly what I have been ringing the alarm about. Every day that Republicans refuse to act, this health care crisis is going to get worse.
The time to act is now.
Republicans don’t have a strategy to reopen the government, and it shows.
On Day #15 of Donald Trump’s shutdown, I am STILL waiting for Republicans to get their act together and help us lower Americans' health care costs.
If Republicans continue down this path and jack up health care costs on Wisconsin families, they will also terminate care for more than 250,000 Veterans who have sacrificed for our country. I’m not OK with that.
