The president has no solutions to lower costs for American families—so he falls back on xenophobia and scapegoating immigrants.
How does this help American families afford their groceries, housing, or health care?

After starting a trade war that has devastated Missouri farmers, the president is giving a Band-Aid to American producers that won’t arrive until next year.
Our farmers want open markets and a level playing field—not another handout that won’t address the crisis.
Millions of American families are about to see their health care premiums more than double in cost if ACA tax credits are not extended.
But Republicans don’t care and are willing to let health care costs skyrocket.
www.politico.com/news/2025/12...
To ensure proper protections are in place for students, I’m calling on 36 veterinary schools across the country to provide information on their policies and procedures to better understand how we can prevent abuse.

And no student should go hungry because they do not have adequate time for meals in between work shifts.
That does not serve students by enhancing their skills—it serves the institutions who are receiving free labor.
iowastatedaily.com/273385/news/...
No student should be forced to work 100-hour weeks while paying tens of thousands per year to pursue their dream of being a veterinarian.
That’s not experiential learning, it’s exploitation.
www.kbia.org/kbia-news/20...
While colleges should provide rigorous curriculums that guarantee students will receive the best education & experience possible, we must also ensure students are not being exploited.
With numerous allegations of abuse at veterinary schools, I’m demanding answers.

While American families were concerned about affordability, Republicans spent all year working to slash taxes for the wealthy and rip health care away from working-class families.
Americans deserve better.

The Trump family has made billions of dollars in the past year by selling access to the White House.
But hardworking American families should be forced to ration food and withhold toys from their children this holiday season because of his failed policies.
Americans are struggling to stay afloat because of the president’s reckless tariff taxes and regressive economic policies.
Instead of cutting taxes for billionaires, Congress should be focused on extending ACA tax credits and providing relief to hardworking families.
NY FED: Percentage of households who think their financial situation will be better off over the next year:
Matches a two-year low.

As Missouri families struggle to keep up with the rising costs of groceries, housing, and health care, the president gave himself an “A-plus-plus-plus-plus-plus” on the economy.
Completely out of touch with the needs of working-class Americans.
Come January, ACA tax credits that help millions of Americans afford their premiums will expire.
Every House Democrat has signed a discharge petition to prevent health care costs from skyrocketing—but we need a handful of Republicans to join us in the fight.
www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/h...
The American people overwhelmingly support the Affordable Care Act.
So why are Republicans in Congress working every day to eliminate ACA tax credits that help working-class families afford quality health care?
thehill.com/policy/healt...
Millions of Americans will lose their health care if ACA tax credits are not extended.
Every @housedemocrats.bsky.social has signed a discharge petition to prevent that from happening—and we won’t stop fighting to protect the health care of working-class families.
abcnews.go.com/Health/1-4-a...
The president started a trade war that has crushed American farmers across the heartland and raised grocery prices on hardworking families.
Now he’s attempting to put out the fire he started.
www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
We’re 23 days away from ACA tax credits expiring—which will send health care premiums skyrocketing.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social have a plan to provide relief to working-class families.
We need a handful of Republicans to help us lower costs for millions of Americans.
www.notus.org/congress/aca...
Every single House Democrat has signed a discharge petition to extend ACA tax credits that will prevent a spike in health care premiums for tens of millions of Americans.
All we need is a handful of Republicans to join us and help save health care for working-class families.
The Trump administration is making it more difficult for families to get essential vaccines that are proven to keep their babies safe.
This decision goes against decades of evidence-backed data and will make America less healthy.
It’s shameful.
“Artificial Christmas trees will cost an estimated 10% to 20% more this season than they did last year because of increased tariff costs”
The president and his tariff taxes are stealing Christmas joy from families across the country
www.nbcnews.com/business/bus...
Republicans are actively choosing to drive up health care costs on hardworking families nationwide.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social won’t stop fighting to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits that will provide relief to millions of our fellow Americans.
