America’s housing shortage won’t be solved by partisan litmus tests. Rejecting bipartisan housing legislation to satisfy political demands means fewer homes built, higher costs for families, and more young Americans wondering if they’ll ever be able to afford a home.
New in PN: Trump hates democracy, housing edition "Real dictators don’t care about policy; they win by cheating. Trump doesn’t want to be a baby man; he wants to cheat. The SAVE America Act is the way. Any other approach, especially trying to help voters, enrages him. He refuses to sign the bill."
No one – not even the President – is above the law. A jury heard the evidence, the courts reviewed the case, and today, the Supreme Court declined to disturb the judgement. Accountability matters, and so does respecting the rule of law.
Breaking news: The Supreme Court let stand a $5 million civil judgment against President Trump in a high-profile trial in 2023 during which a jury found him liable for allegedly sexually assaulting and defaming journalist E. Jean Carroll.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting for commonsense solutions that will bring down the high cost of living and end corruption that’s rigging our economy and undermining our democracy.
This week will mark one year since Republicans passed the Big Ugly Bill into law, and everyday Americans are sicker and poorer while billionaires and big corporations get richer and more powerful.
#MO05, please take care of yourselves and each other during this Extreme Heat Warning! Heat-related illness is preventable with the right precautions. Stay hydrated, seek shade or air conditioning when possible, and remember to check on neighbors who may need extra support. Stay safe! bit.ly/4vxIzt7
The president’s disastrous war in the Middle East has cost the lives of 13 servicemembers, driven up the price of gas and groceries for hardworking families, and cost taxpayers tens of billions of dollars. And all it achieved was a more hardline regime and billions of dollars going to Iran.
Trump and his allies lambasted Obama’s Iran nuclear deal for a decade. Yet their proposed deal is objectively weaker than the JCPOA: fewer conditions, more money for Iran, and less nuclear oversight. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart
The Vice President openly bragging about all the corruption this administration can get away with today is truly astonishing. A lasting stain on the Republicans in Congress who have allowed this flagrant corruption to run rampant.
JD Vance: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."
Today marks the anniversary of Obergefell v. Hodges, the landmark Supreme Court decision affirming marriage equality nationwide. As we celebrate this historic step forward, we must also continue the push for equal rights for ALL!
TPS holders are our neighbors, coworkers, and parents of American citizens. The Supreme Court’s decision to end TPS protections will tear families apart, put lives at risk, hurt local economies, and weaken communities across the country. Another shameful decision.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to end legal protections for migrants fleeing violence and natural disaster in Haiti and Syria.
As alpha-gal syndrome spreads rapidly, Congress must invest in life-saving research that will help discover new treatments and improve the lives of those dealing with the condition. That’s why I’m fighting to provide federal funding for alpha-gal syndrome research. cleaver.house.gov/media-center...
Congress just passed the most significant housing legislation in more than 3 decades as we fight to lower costs for hardworking families. Instead of using this bipartisan legislation as leverage to enact voter suppression laws, the president should sign the bill and provide relief to the people!
4 years ago, the Supreme Court's disastrous Dobbs decision undermined reproductive freedom and women’s rights. Every American has a right to make personal medical decisions without interference from the government—and we will not stop in the fight to restore the protections of Roe v. Wade.
While suffering a miscarriage, Lynn Callaway was turned away by two different hospitals because of Texas’ abortion ban. This is the reality for women and girls four years after Dobbs: “It wasn’t just grieving the loss of a pregnancy, but grieving a system you thought would protect you.”
Tonight, the House passed a historic housing package that was the culmination of years of bipartisan work to boost the development of affordable housing and lower costs for the American people. Proud to help lead the way as we seek to revitalize the American dream for hardworking families.
Thankful for the partnership of Rep. Hill, Rep. Waters, and Rep. Flood in the House, along with Senator Scott and Senator Warren in the Senate, to help make this bipartisan accomplishment possible in a deeply divided Congress. It’s remarkable what we can accomplish when we work together.
Tonight, the House passed a historic housing package that was the culmination of years of bipartisan work to boost the development of affordable housing and lower costs for the American people. Proud to help lead the way as we seek to revitalize the American dream for hardworking families.
Tonight, the House will pass the biggest housing package in over 30 years, including numerous bills I have introduced to cut through red tape, build more affordable housing, and lower costs for families. As the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Housing, I'm proud of this bipartisan achievement.
