Trump's heartless budget cuts medical research funding to the bone—funding that helps discover breakthroughs in cancer, Alzheimer’s and more.
Trump will say he's "saving money."
But this could cost lives.

Trump's layoffs at the VA were so reckless, they erroneously fired Veteran Crisis Line workers.
That. Never. Should. Have. Happened.
Tomorrow, I'm introducing legislation to protect this lifeline that supports our heroes in their hour of need.
‼️Starting tomorrow, Americans will need to present a REAL ID when going through airport security for commercial flights within the United States.
Check TSA’s website for identification requirements before your upcoming travel ⬇️
Absolutely shameful.
Trump's trans military service ban hurts our military readiness, makes our military's recruitment challenges even worse and disrespects Americans who are brave enough to serve in uniform.
This will make our military less lethal and Americans less safe.
Jan has been a champion for Illinois and progressive values for decades in Congress. I couldn't be more proud to call her a colleague and a friend—her leadership and her advocacy will be sorely missed. Congratulations @schakowsky.house.gov on your well-earned retirement!

Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) told "Face The Nation" that she expects Mike Waltz to have a "brutal hearing" for U.N. ambassador after his surprise departure last week from his post as President Trump's national security adviser. https://cbsn.ws/44RpcRh
Mike Waltz is failing up.
He’s being rewarded for an egregious national security breach by being tapped for UN Ambassador—a slap in the face to the troops he put in greater danger with SignalGate.
I’ll be voting no.
The lethal high-powered rifles I carried during my military service were designed for war.
Not our streets.
Not our neighborhoods.
Certainly not our schools.
Senate Democrats introduced legislation to revive the nationwide assault weapons ban.
It’s long overdue.
Took long enough. Mike Waltz knowingly made an unclassified chain to discuss classified matters.
But of all the idiots in that chat, Hegseth is the biggest security risk of all—he leaked the info that put our troops in greater danger.
Fire and investigate them all. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-m...
Happy Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month!
No matter what Trump or Hegseth say, diversity *is* our greatest strength—and our AANHPI communities have proven that time and again.
AANHPI stories are American stories. Always have been.
SNAP programs create 200,000 jobs and billions in wages—along with putting food on the table for millions.
Republicans' budget plans to eliminate this, putting people out of work and taking food out of families' mouths so they can fund billionaire tax breaks.
Beyond cruel.
The Trump Playbook:
Take credit for the strong economy he inherited.
Crash that economy with needless tariffs.
Blame others for the mess he made.
Repeat.
Ripping medical care away from our transgender servicemembers is NOT how we make our military more lethal—it's just dangerous, unconstitutional and transphobic.
Now, Hegseth must heed our call to reverse the Trump Admin’s hateful trans military ban too.
This is how you make America sicker, not healthier.
Trump is cancelling almost a BILLION dollars in grants to clean up poisonous pollution, get rid of lead in drinking water and other projects that help protect the health of our families.
Despicable.

Trump’s first 100 days:
DOGE cuts.
Fired Veterans.
SignalGate.
Trade wars.
Higher grocery bills.
Social Security benefits at risk.
Deported citizens.
Economy tanked.
This is no golden age for America.
It's a shitshow.
Absolutely awful. Devastated for the four who were killed by a car crash at an after school camp in Chatham.
Thank you to IL State Police and all of the first responders on the ground who responded quickly to the scene.
My heart is with the entire Chatham community, the victims and their families.
Thanks to Trump, it’s getting harder to afford the basics—groceries, gas and the list goes on.
That’s what happens when leaders protect billionaires and leave working families with the bill.
Unsurprising that the two billionaires who do nothing but plot how they can further enrich themselves...
Are gutting the agency that helps millions of Americans give back to their communities.
Democrats are pushing back. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
SNAP helps millions put food on the table while supporting local farmers and grocers.
Our families and farmers are already feeling the pain of Trump's tariffs—
And now Republicans want to gut this lifeline and take food out of children’s mouths to fund billionaire tax cuts.
So much needless harm.
80 million Americans get health care through Medicaid.
And instead of making the wealthy pay the taxes they owe, Republicans want to give them a big tax cut by gutting this basic needs program.
They'll be ripping health care from seniors, new moms, kids and millions of others.
