If the Speaker is serious, he can extend the ACA tax credits that will prevent healthcare premiums from skyrocketing, restore the $1 TRILLION in funding Republicans cut from Medicaid, and end the Republican shutdown!

I call on Israel and Hamas to take the first step towards ending the devastation and destruction throughout the region by agreeing to the proposed ceasefire and a long term peace process.
As we pray for the victims, their families, and their communities, let us also pray for the immediate return of the innocent hostages, an end to this brutal conflict and the suffering of the Palestinian people, and a lasting peace across the region.
Today marks 2 years since Hamas terrorists senselessly slaughtered over 1,200 people, including dozens of Americans, in their brutal attack on Israel.
May we take a moment to grieve with the families, and may we never forget the lives lost.
Just like he wants to rip healthcare away from hardworking families, the president wants to steal paychecks from federal workers.
The law is clear and @housedemocrats.bsky.social won’t stand for it.
The president continues violating court orders in his lawless attempts to sow chaos in American cities.
At what point will Republicans in Congress stand up to this blatant abuse of power?

Republicans enacted the largest cut to Medicaid in history.
Their Big Ugly Bill will rip health care away from 15 MILLION Americans.
Now, they’ve shut down the government to prevent an extension of ACA tax credits that help working class families afford their premiums.
It says everything that, in the middle of a government shut down, House Republicans decided to take another week off.
Democrats will keep showing up to work, fighting to lower costs, and protecting the health care of American families – because someone has to do the people’s work.
Together, we’ll keep fighting to #ProtectOurCare and ensure workers get the pay and benefits they have earned!
It was an honor to speak before the Communications Workers of America this morning to talk about the harmful impacts of the president’s Big Ugly Bill—which rips healthcare away from millions of American workers, kills clean energy jobs, and gives tax breaks to giant corporations.
If Republicans are successful in ending ACA tax credits, 383,000 Missourians are at risk of losing their health care and 216,000 face premiums that are more than DOUBLE what they paid this year.
Missouri families literally cannot afford this cruelty.

America’s government is in a complete shutdown, and House Republicans are refusing to come back to work.
Is it because they don’t want to lower the healthcare costs of American families or because they don’t want to release the Epstein Files?

The president’s tariff taxes have sent grocery prices soaring and devastated American farmers nationwide.
Now, he needs $50 BILLION to fix his mistake.
And you wonder how he bankrupted numerous businesses…

The American know that Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House—which is why this shutdown is due to their inability to govern.
It’s time to negotiate a bipartisan bill that reopens government and prevents healthcare costs from soaring.
The American people are already struggling with the cost-of-living, which is why they want an extension of ACA tax credits that help working families afford their health premiums.
While Republicans shut down the government to prevent that, we’ll keep fighting to #ProtectOurCare
American families were already facing a housing affordability crisis—and now the President’s tariff taxes are going to drive up housing costs even further.
This reckless economic experiment must come to an end.

Making the largest cut to Medicaid in history wasn’t enough.
Now, Republicans are working to end ACA tax credits that help working class families afford quality healthcare, ensuring skyrocketing costs.
They shut down the government over it.
After months of making life harder and more expensive, Republicans are now inflicting a painful shutdown on the American people because they refuse to protect Americans’ health care.
Democrats will keep working to reopen the government and address the Republican healthcare crisis.
After making the largest cut to Medicaid in history, Republicans are working to allow ACA tax credits to expire, which will more than double health care premiums for millions of Americans
We're fighting to stop this partisan attack on Americans’ health care

If Republicans are successful in ending ACA tax credits, tens of millions of Americans, including 46,000 Missourians in #MO05, will see their health care premiums soar.
See how much it might affect your family—and why I'm fighting to #ProtectOurCare

The president lied to the American people about his association with Project 2025 and is now using Russ Vought to implement this deeply dangerous and harmful agenda—which will gut federal services for hardworking families.
This has been the plan from day one.
