The Big Bad Ugly Bill is a dream killer for students pursuing a higher education. College is already unaffordable for many students, and this legislation rips away federal support for student loan borrowers and grad students. I’m voting no.

It’s early in the morning at our nation’s Capitol and we’ve been fighting all night to stop the Republican’s Big Bad Bill.
Reposted bySuzanne Bonamici
Just took to the House Floor to speak in support of a country where everyone can afford to live the good life.
And in strong opposition to Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill that is devastating to everyday Americans.
We will not be silenced.

Finally I offered amendments with @magaziner.house.gov to save NOAA from disastrous cuts. This bill sabotages safety and puts Americans directly in harm's way—particularly coastal communities like those I represent on Oregon’s North Coast.
@bobbyscott.house.gov and I are leading amendments that are pro-family, pro-children, pro-mom. Protecting important nutrition programs like SNAP and WIC are investments in the health, learning, and development of children and young adults across the country.
Another amendment I offered would remove a misguided policy that punishes colleges that have graduates who choose service over salary.
I offered an amendment about student loans. This bill is a sweeping, calculated assault on American families, on students, and on institutes of higher education that give people the opportunity to get an education.
History will remember those who stand up for those in need and those who turn their backs on their own constituents to give tax breaks to the wealthy.
I joined the Rules Committee even though it was late at night so I could offer amendments to remove several harmful provisions from the Big Bad Ugly bill. 🧵
That bill is pending in the House right now, and I’m doing everything I can to stop it from passing. Oregonians and the American people deserve better.
The Senate GOP passed a bill that will cause unnecessary harm and premature deaths so they can give tax breaks to the wealthiest people and corporations.
Oregon has been a national leader in expanding access to affordable health care, but the GOP’s devastating cuts to Medicaid would reverse progress and leave hundreds of thousands of Oregonians without coverage.
We all do better when people can get the care they need.
I answered some calls today and my team is letting me know about all the messages they take. Thank you for making your voices heard!
This bill will rip health care and food assistance away from millions of Oregonians and Americans, raise energy costs, kill jobs, and add trillions to the national debt. I am voting NO and fighting this bill in every way I can.
My office is getting lots of calls from Oregonians who are concerned about the GOP's Big Bad Ugly Bill and what it means for their lives and the future of our country. I hear and share your frustrations.
@salinas.house.gov @repdexteror.bsky.social @bynum.house.gov @repvalhoyle.bsky.social
This is a massive harmful bill that will take health care and food assistance away from millions of Americans, kill thousands of jobs, add more than trillion dollars to the national debt, and more. We say NO!
Oregon’s Congressional Democrats are here to fight the Big Bad Ugly Bill that Republicans are trying to push through in a rush to appease Donald Trump.
This bill will sabotage the economy and make China the leader in clean energy. I implore all my House colleagues to use common sense, think about now harmful this will be, and vote no.
This bill will cause thousands of lost jobs and dismantle the fastest-growing, lowest-cost energy sector in the country to pad the pockets of oil and gas companies. Americans will see higher rates, more blackouts and brownouts, and more floods, fires, and extreme weather.
