Republicans voted to make life cheaper for the ultra-wealthy in more ways than one, but won't vote to make health care costs more affordable for working Americans.
How sad and messed up is that?

This is fear-mongering.
This regime wants you to fear the vaccines that keep you, your family, and your communities safe and believe junk science and conspiracy theories over proven science.
This decision is dangerous.

This regime's next target for rooting out "waste, fraud, and abuse": The doctors and nurses who care for our nation's veterans.
Disgusting. Our veterans deserve better.

This regime hands out tax breaks to billionaires and major corporations while forcing costs to skyrocket for working Americans.
The rich get richer while the rest of America struggles to get by.
That is the reality of Trump's economy.
America is one of the richest countries, yet Americans pay more for their health care than anywhere else.
There is no reason that should be the case.
Yet once again, when given the chance to lower costs, Republicans chose to force costs to skyrocket over voting with Democrats.
Measles outbreaks are accelerating across the country, and the head of Health and Human Services is worried about doing pull-ups at the airport.

1 in 4 American households are living paycheck to paycheck.
And Trump gave that an A+++++
Last year, 14 million kids experienced a little holiday magic thanks to the generosity and dedication of Toys for Tots.
As a member of SVACDems and SASCDems, I'm always proud to partner with our Marine Corps as they work to ensure kids around the country have a happy holiday.
Republicans don't care about the affordability of health care (or anything else) for the American people.
At the end of the month, when your health care premiums have skyrocketed, remember that Democrats had a plan to lower costs by extending the ACA tax credits, and Republicans refused to vote with us.
This health care crisis and its insanely high prices are all Republicans' doing.
Republicans just voted to ensure the health care costs for millions of Americans SKYROCKET at the end of the year.
How shameful.
Premiums are set to rise by an average of 114% at the end of the month.
Democrats have a plan to stop this from happening, but Republicans refuse to extend the ACA tax credits.
They made life cheaper for the top 1% but refuse to ensure that you can afford health care.
Shameful.
Democrats have a plan to extend the ACA tax credits and lower health care costs.
Republicans barely have concepts of a plan.
Yet, Republicans would rather your health care costs skyrocket than vote with us to stop the suffering of millions of Americans.
Trying to eliminate birthright citizenship is entirely unconstitutional and completely un-American.

Donald: Ignorance is bliss, but it doesn't pay the bills.
People are paying more for everyday goods as costs continue to skyrocket under your presidency.
If it's a day that ends in Y...
By the way, Trump's tariffs are the reason these farmers need this $12 billion bailout in the first place.

Since being sworn in, Pete Hegseth has done nothing but put our national security at risk.
From unauthorized Signal chats to reckless and ill-advised policies, his incompetence jeopardizes the lives of our troops and undermines the integrity of his office.
He should resign.
This regime says they are deporting the "worst of the worst" like...U.S. citizen children with cancer.
It's total BS.
