House Republicans are yielding to Trump's demands for trillions in new tax breaks for his billionaire buddies.
Instead of fulfilling false promises to lower prices for families, the GOP budget “wreckonciliation” is an economic plan that cuts support Americans rely on but not grocery or drug prices.

Elon Musk and his DOGE Musketeers must come before Congress to explain themselves.
I'm all for saving taxpayer money, but it makes no sense why the world's richest man needed to obtain Americans' most sensitive information and records at the Treasury Department.
We need answers. Now.
With Trump giving Musk access to confidential info on every American, I led every @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social Democrat in demanding Congress receive within 14 days all documents and materials related to their intrusion.
We must protect privacy, demand accountability, and shine a light on DOGE.

14 days.
All Ways and Means Democrats, led by @doggett.house.gov, put the Trump-Musk Administration on notice and gave them 14 days to hand over all information on DOGE's unlawful access to Treasury's payment systems.
We won't stop fighting. democrats-waysandmeans.house.gov/media-center...
Big Pharma spiked prices on hundreds of critical meds this year, despite Trump’s promise to bring prices down.
His response: pal around w/Big Pharma executives, fire consumer watchdogs responsible for rooting out fraud, waste, and abuse, and seek more tax breaks for pharma companies & execs.
UT scholars rightly argue that shutting down USAID makes Americans less safe. A bird flu outbreak in the US is already increasing the price of eggs—and USAID monitors bird flu in 49 countries.
Trump and Musk are unlawfully destroying an agency that protects Americans’ health, wealth, and security.
Working families, retirees, and veterans are contacting me—alarmed about their SSN, health care and tax data, and more accessed by Musk and his Musketeers.
DOGE, better labeled DODGE, must not be allowed to escape congressional and judicial oversight.
Trump is executing a widescale siege on health care.
Research funding cuts, disappearing public health data, and now a bill to cut health care for children, people with disabilities, and low-income seniors. All to improve the health of his billionaire buddies’ offshore bank accounts.
Though Trump claimed his immigrant roundups are targeting violent criminals, less than half of about 8,200 arrestees (1/20-2/2) have criminal convictions, according to government data obtained by ProPublica and Texas Tribune.
Celebrated the life of our friend Cecile Richards.
Her timely message: When our country was endangered, what did you do? Everything I could.
Musk's DOGE, better named "Dodge," for dodging the law, accountability and Congress, threatens to wreck vital support American families and businesses depend on.
I spoke against the unlawful Trump/Musk scheme to invade your privacy by accessing SSN, health care records, tax data and more.
While Trump seeks to undermine public education, Gov. Abbott is defunding and destabilizing Texas public schools.
Abbott's voucher scheme will serve less than 2% of our 5.5 million Texas public school children. $1 billion in taxpayer dollars wasted on a plan that fast-tracks mediocrity.
Saluting Aurora, Kevin& Serena, Vandegrift HS sophomores advocating to maintain the International Baccalaureate diploma program, which is valuable for so many students.
I commend their advocacy & hope the Leander School Board can find a way in these difficult budget times to maintain the program.
Trump halted all work by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a watchdog agency that delivered $21B back to consumers by stopping loan sharks, scams against veterans, auto insurance denials & more.
While Trump does nothing to lower prices, he is making it easier for corporations to scam you.
Your water may become undrinkable, and the air may be harder to breathe as toxic dangers proliferate with polluters in charge.
But don't worry because Trump is focused on bigger issues like renaming the Gulf of Mexico!
Now, Trump/Musk have halted its work and seek to terminate it. Too much success at holding their buddies accountable. (2/2)
Founded in response to the 2007 financial crash, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has delivered $21 billion back into Americans’ pocketbooks by cracking down on payday lenders, overdraft fees, canceled debts, and more. (1/2)
After initial litigation losses for their illegal actions, Trump Admin now begins intimidating/attacking judiciary.
Vance—ignore court orders.
Musk—impeach “corrupt” judges.
We must pushback hard against these next leaps down the pathway to tyranny.
Continuing his assault on science and health, Trump ordered the removal of important CDC data and guidance concerning contraceptives.
Mandating motherhood through severe limits on birth control access appears to be next GOP goal along with national abortion ban.
Our runners-up were Viraj Velur, Shivank Ahuja, Vihaan Gandra and Pranav Kulshrestha from Grisham Middle School and Aaditya Bhat, Edwin Feng, Ryan Reddy, and Henry Liu from LASA.
With such creative students, Austin can remain a tech leader.
