So much progress will be erased by this bill — millions lose health insurance, and for what? To give Jeff Bezos another tax break?

17 million people’s health insurance is not waste.
If you’re looking for frauds, look at all the Republicans who promised not to cut Medicaid but did it anyways.
Now it’s up to all of us to continue the fight.
As this bill returns to the House, make your voices heard.
We say no to the largest role back in health care in our nation’s history, and the biggest transfer of wealth in modern times.
In Minnesota alone, nearly 200,000 people will lose their health insurance.
Rural hospitals will be forced to close.
Planned Parenthood will lose its funding and have to shutter clinics.
What Republicans did here is simple.
They voted to kick 16 million people off health insurance while giving massive tax breaks to billionaires and corporations, and managed to still raise the debt by a staggering $5 trillion.
I worked at Planned Parenthood.
They diagnose cancers while still treatable. They help women decide what birth control works for them. They help those working through mental health challenges.
Defunding them just harms people who already struggle to find places to get care.
It takes a serious level of cruelty to not only kick millions off their health insurance, but simultaneously tell you where you can and can’t go to get a Pap smear or breast cancer screening — if you’re deemed worthy enough to keep your health insurance in the first place.

🚨The GOP provision to DEFUND Planned Parenthood is staying in the Big Ugly bill. Clinics will shutter. Women will lose access to cancer screenings, birth control, and basic care.
I will be forcing a vote to try to strip it out.
Fight like hell. We need to kill this bill.
Just when I thought the big, beautiful bill couldn't get any worse, it has.
If R's amendments go through, the number of Minnesotans losing health insurance will top 300,000.
Medicaid saves lives.
Nobody wants to see what will happen if it’s cut by the “Big, Beautiful Bill.”

This isn’t over yet. Spread the word.
Republicans' Big, Beautiful Bill would:
— Kick 16 million off their health care
— Close 1 out of 4 nursing homes
— Hike your energy bills
— Add at least $4 trillion to the national debt
It’s a gift to the rich and a disaster for families.
If Republicans won’t fix the Big, Beautiful Bill, we’ll offer amendments to fix it ourselves.
They will have every opportunity to join us and save peoples’ health care.
I was so grateful to be with Melissa and Mark Hortman’s families and so many Minnesotans yesterday at the State Capitol to honor them.
Today I am watching with love from afar in Washington, present in spirit. May they rest in peace and may their memories bless us all.
It’s Saturday. The day Senate Republicans try to figure out how to take away Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for billionaires, but hope nobody notices.
News Flash: people will notice.
Not that he had much respect for the supposedly co-equal branch of the Judiciary in the first place…
Justice Sotomayor’s dissent in today’s birthright citizenship case is a wake up call for all of us: “No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates”
SCOTUS is essentially deciding to look the other way as Trump infringes on our rights and breaks our laws.
Sgt. Rodriguez was an exemplary public servant. Her dedication to keeping Minnesotans safe, and her commitment to helping people find a place to live was transformative. She helped to make our state a better place.
May her memory be a blessing.
Be kind.
Do good work.
Put your faith into action for the good of your community.
It’s late, and I’m trying every way I know how to get home tomorrow to honor them as they lie in state in the Rotunda of the State Capitol.
I’m thinking about how much they loved each other and their family, and how much they loved Minnesota and our country. That’s inspiration for all of us.
