According to Yale Budget Lab, @vanhollen.senate.gov and @beyer.house.gov's 10% surtax on adjusted gross incomes above $1 million (or $2 million for joint filers) would raise close to $1.5 trillion over a decade. Read more: taxgreed.us/Yale-Surtax

It’s tricky to guess when you have an unticketed event but our expectations for this jobs fair were around 300 people. It’s less than halfway through and we are approaching **two thousand** (2,000) people

Unidentified masked ICE Agents picking people up off the street or from their homes can create dangerous situations and contribute to a climate of fear. It undermines the public's trust in law enforcement and is reminiscent of police states. It must stop. beyer.house.gov/news/documen...

Pete Hegseth has to go too. No excuse at all to keep him in this job, he screwed up numerous times and is doing things anyone who serves under him would have been fired for. Any other president would fired someone this incompetent a long time ago.

FOX NEWS ALERT: Mike Waltz out as Trump's national security adviser

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMay 1(source)

Even his own supporters will not believe these flimsy excuses. Trump inherited a strong economy and is running it into the ground with stupid and disastrous tariffs, as Republicans in Congress refuse to stop him. beyer.house.gov/news/documen...

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMay 1(source)

Trump had the worst stock market performance to start a presidency in 50 years. Recession forecasts are getting grim. It's so bad that Trump is trying to blame others and distance himself from an economy he promised would ‘flourish’ ‘from this day forward' on January 20th. 3/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMay 1(source)

This report showed inflation rising even before we see the worst impacts of Trump’s tariffs. Private sector hiring in April declined sharply. Consumer confidence fell to its lowest point in three decades. Consumer expectations are worse than they were during the pandemic. 2/

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMay 1(source)

Trump’s chaos is clearly and significantly raising the risk of a recession, and the economic warning lights are all flashing red. The economy just shrank in the first three months of Trump’s presidency, after years of growth and a strong previous quarter. 1/

The U.S. economy shrank by 0.3% in first quarter of 2025, the first drop in three years as Trump's trade wars disrupt businesses.
