US gas hits $4 per gallon for first time since 2022, with average prices now higher than at any point during Trump's two terms. Follow live updates: https://cnn.it/4ch54v6

This tells you everything about this Administration's priorities. While preparing to send our troops into harm’s way in a half-baked war, Hegseth was working on getting a piece of the pie. Disgusting. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

Donald Trump is refusing to negotiate a deal to end the DHS shutdown, end the chaos at airports across country, and pay our public servants. The American people deserve a president who will do the job of governing, not an erratic ballroom designer. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Trump shows off new ballroom designs as he defends $400 million project

The planned White House addition, a top priority of the president, is facing a key vote this week. A federal judge may also rule to halt the project.

After enacting the largest Medicaid cuts in history and allowing health care tax credits to expire so they can pay for tax cuts for the rich, Republicans now want to make further cuts to health care to pay for Trump’s illegal war of choice in Iran. Shameful. I'll be voting NO.

NEW: Republicans are considering reductions in federal health spending to help pay for a budget bill containing as much as $200 billion to fund the Iran war and immigration enforcement.

Trump promised he would lower costs on Day 1, but the cost of groceries has only gotten more expensive for Americans since he’s been in office. www.cbsnews.com/news/price-t...

Trump: "The cost of cheese, butter, potatoes, and fruit is lower today than when I took office. Eggs are down 60%. Beef is starting to come down. They wanted to have less cattle in the country for environmental reasons. These are sick people. It has something to do with gas."

As we've said all along, Trump’s aluminum tariffs are a counterproductive failure. These tariffs are only raising costs on manufacturers that rely on aluminum, while domestic production has actually declined. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

It is not too late to do the right thing. Speaker Johnson can still bring the Senate-passed bill to the floor, reopen the law-abiding entities of DHS, and ensure that public servants are paid. He should. 7/7

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 28(source)

Congress shouldn't approve additional funding for operations that include masked agents breaking into homes and vehicles without judicial warrants. Americans shouldn't tolerate lawless brutality from a federal agency, and ICE shouldn't receive additional funding until these abuses are addressed. 6/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 28(source)

They brought forward legislation that prioritizes additional funding for ICE without any meaningful safeguards to address the disturbing pattern of aggressive enforcement tactics that has terrorized communities and resulted in the tragic death of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. 5/

House Republican leadership chose instead to extend the DHS shutdown by advancing legislation that has no viable path to passage in the Senate. 4/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 28(source)

Had they done so, the law-abiding agencies under DHS would be funded, the dedicated public servants who keep our country running – including TSA agents, Coast Guard members, and FEMA personnel – would be paid, and the air travel delays afflicting Americans across the country would be resolved. 3/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 28(source)

House Republicans had the opportunity to bring a bipartisan, Senate-passed funding bill to the floor and end this unnecessary shutdown. 2/

Today, I'm introducing my wealth tax — and more than 50 members of Congress are joining me. It’s time for the government to start working for American families, not just the ultra-rich.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 28(source)

ICE shouldn't be given additional funding to support operations carried out by masked agents breaking into cars and homes without judicial warrants. House Republicans can still bring the Senate-passed bill to the floor, fund the law-abiding parts of DHS, and pay our public servants. They should.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 28(source)

Instead, House Republican leaders chose to put forward a bill that funds ICE without any agreement to rein in the lawless abuse that has terrorized communities and led to the deaths of two Americans. I voted NO.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 28(source)

House Republicans could have brought the Senate-passed bill to the floor to fund the law-abiding parts of DHS. The shutdown could have ended today and our TSA agents, Coast Guard members, and FEMA employees would get paid.
