🧵1/8 Reconciliation markup begins today on Ag Committee. Here’s what you need to know about Republicans’ proposed $290 billion cut to food assistance and what that means for our economy, families, and farmers. ⬇️

Rep. Shontel Brown@repshontelbrown.bsky.socialMay 13(source)

Instead of lowering costs, Trump and MAGA Republicans are planning to make life worse for millions. Trump's tax scam could devastate Ohio and cause hundreds of thousands in our state alone to lose health care coverage. www.wosu.org/2025-05-13/o...

Ohioans brace for possible Medicaid cuts

800,000 Ohioans are at risk of losing coverage if Congress passes a proposed cut to Medicaid.

Rep. Shontel Brown@repshontelbrown.bsky.socialMay 13(source)

"The moves could result in potentially millions of low-income families losing access to the safety net program." These are the stakes. Republicans want people to suffer so they can give tax cuts to the wealthy. We're going to fight back. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/12/u...

Republicans Target Federal Anti-Hunger Program as They Prepare Trump Tax Package

Burning books about Black, Jewish, and LGBTQ topics is hate, plain and simple. We must push back and make clear that in Northeast Ohio, we celebrate diversity, reject hatred, and welcome people of all backgrounds. www.cleveland19.com/2025/05/12/m...

Honored to attend the West Side Market Transformation groundbreaking. The West Side Market is a legacy landmark and an asset for our future. Proud to support federal financing for the West Side Market, and am introducing legislation to make more projects like this possible.

This week, I joined DWC colleagues for a meeting with Gabby Giffords to discuss the ongoing need for legislation to address gun violence. We owe it to the people we represent to keep fighting for safer communities.

Thank you to everyone who attended our 3rd Annual Small Business Expo last week—so proud to fight for the small business owners and entrepreneurs in our community. #SBE25

The economy’s shaky, prices are rising, and Medicaid and SNAP are on the chopping block. House Republicans' priority? Renaming the Gulf of Mexico. What a joke.

Rep. Shontel Brown@repshontelbrown.bsky.socialMay 8(source)

This week, I wrote to President Trump calling for funding for the Cleveland Peacemakers Alliance to be restored. His Administration shouldn't play politics with public safety and violence prevention programs that benefit our community. www.cleveland.com/news/2025/05...

U.S. Rep. Shontel Brown urges Trump to restore violence prevention funding

Congresswoman says programs are "lifelines" for making neighborhoods safer.

On today's Democratic Daily Download, @repjahanahayes.bsky.social explains how Republicans are trying to cut $230 billion from food assistance. House Democrats are fighting back with the Hands Off Medicaid and SNAP Act to protect these basic needs programs.

Happy #PublicServiceRecognitionWeek to all the hard-working civil servants in NE Ohio and nationwide. The ongoing attacks on federal workers are wrong and as a member of the Labor Caucus I will keep fighting for you. Thank you for ALL that you do.

Rep. Shontel Brown@repshontelbrown.bsky.socialMay 7(source)

The Trump Administration has broken the economy, broken the law, and broken our alliances.

Higher prices and shortages are headed your way, thanks to Trump's trade war and mindless blanket tariffs www.cnn.com/2025/05/06/b...

The first boats carrying Chinese goods with 145% tariffs are arriving in LA. Shipments are cut in half. Expect shortages soon | CNN Business

American consumers are on the cusp of tough choices because of President Donald Trump’s trade war.

Today, I was proud to speak at the #HandsOffSNAP rally alongside Senator Klobuchar, Rep Hayes, Rep Adams, and Rep Tokuda.  Republican cuts to SNAP mean fewer people fed, smaller benefits, or both. This isn’t about responsibility. It’s about cruelty. And we’re here to say NO.

Rep. Shontel Brown@repshontelbrown.bsky.socialMay 5(source)

This month, we celebrate the incredible impact of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders in NE Ohio and across the country. Let's keep fighting for a country where AANHPI Americans and people of all backgrounds can thrive.

Supporting small business growth is about expanding opportunity. Thank you to everyone who attended our Small Business Expo - and if you weren’t here this year we want to see you next year. #SBE25

Look at this amazing crowd at our 3rd Annual Small Business Expo! 😎 #SBE25

Trump is defunding federal violence prevention grants, including in Cleveland. Proud to lead a letter with Rep. Kelly, Rep. Frost & Rep. McBath calling on these grants to be reinstated. www.thetrace.org/2025/05/cong...
