It’s Week 2 of the government shutdown. Republicans are still on vacation while families & federal workers pay the price. They want to cut your health care and raise costs for everyone. I’m in DC fighting to protect your coverage.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 8(source)

The Speaker should call us back ASAP so we can vote to pay our troops.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 8(source)

House Republicans are refusing to return to Washington to vote on a bipartisan bill to pay our troops. Congress has done this in previous shutdowns. Next Wednesday, service members will miss their paycheck because of the Republican shutdown.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 8(source)

Republicans are trying to cover up why they shut down the government. They want to take health coverage away from millions of Americans. Democrats are fighting to lower your health care bills.

GOP blames government shutdown on health care for undocumented people. That's false

The White House and GOP lawmakers say a provision in the Big Beautiful Bill that Democrats want rolled back keeps undocumented people from getting health benefits — a claim experts say is misleading.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 7(source)

Trump’s politically motivated decision to cancel $1B in funding for the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Hub will hurt hardworking Washingtonians, cost jobs, & raise energy bills. I’ll keep fighting to restore this funding so WA can lead the way in the green energy economy.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 7(source)

Federal workers are entitled to back pay after a government shutdown is over. It’s the law. Period. Trump & Republicans need to stop coming up with new ways of punishing Americans & get serious about ending the shutdown.

Trump suggests not all furloughed workers will get back pay: 'It depends'

Trump also said at the White House that if the shutdown drags on several days longer, a "substantial" number of jobs "will never come back."

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 7(source)

This is a moment to recommit ourselves to peace & stability for Israelis & Palestinians. The only way that can be achieved is with a permanent ceasefire that returns all the hostages, surges humanitarian assistance to Gaza, & works toward a two-state solution.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 7(source)

Today marks two years since Hamas’s horrific attack on Israel that brutally murdered innocent civilians & took others hostage.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 6(source)

Taking away enhanced Affordable Care Act insurance subsidies would spike monthly health care premiums. Here’s one example of what this could mean in Washington.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 6(source)

If Republicans get their way, health insurance premiums will skyrocket next year. I’m fighting to avoid this massive price hike that would force an estimated 80,000 people in our state to lose their coverage.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 5(source)

Republicans had months to do their job but chose loyalty to Trump over governing. Families deserve a Congress that meets the needs of our communities.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 4(source)

Federal workers across WA are facing uncertainty around paying their bills & when they’ll get their next paycheck because Republicans refuse to come to the table to end this shutdown.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 4(source)

The government shutdown is impacting families, workers & communities across Washington. We’ve put together answers to the most common questions about what this means for you. Visit my shutdown FAQ page here: DelBene.house.gov/shutdown.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 3(source)

They are too busy trying to protect their rich & powerful friends rather than reopening the government.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 3(source)

The government is shutdown & House Republicans canceled votes AGAIN, keeping the House out of session. This is all because they don’t want to swear in Rep.-elect Grijalva, who would be the final signature necessary to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 3(source)

Medicare Beneficiaries’ access to telehealth services have lapsed because of the Republican shutdown. If you’re unsure if an upcoming telehealth appointment will be covered, contact your health care provider to see what your options are.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 3(source)

Republicans have been asleep at the wheel & led us into a government shutdown. Now the health care of millions is at risk.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 2(source)

🚨BREAKING: Trump just canceled $1.1B for WA energy & manufacturing projects. Trump’s political retribution will cost jobs & raise energy bills for families in our state. I’ll fight to reverse this.

DOE funding cuts hit 223 blue state energy projects

The cancellations worth $7.56 billion sparked outrage among Democrats, who called them illegal and said they would raise electricity costs.

Wishing all those observing in Washington & across the world a meaningful Yom Kippur. G'mar Chatima Tovah!
