🧵Here’s what Donald Trump chose instead of agreeing to lower your health care costs: -No food safety checks on what’s in your fridge -Longer TSA lines. Fewer air traffic controllers on duty -National parks locked up – or piling up trash -Passports and visas stuck in limbo

Time’s up — Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress just shut down the federal government. Here’s what that means for you.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govSep 30(source)

Health insurance premiums will more than DOUBLE for millions of Americans unless Republicans in Congress actually work with Democrats and do something about it.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govSep 30(source)

Fact check: it’s already illegal for undocumented immigrants to enroll in federally funded health care like the ACA exchange, Medicaid, or Medicare. Republicans know this – and they’re blaming immigrants anyway so they can RAISE your health care costs and CUT taxes for the rich.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govSep 30(source)

Today’s the last day of government funding and Republicans are doing NOTHING to make sure kids, families, and seniors have access to affordable health care and thousands of civil servants get paid while serving their country.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govSep 30(source)

Donald Trump would rather shut down the government – furloughing over 400,000 workers, cutting off essential government services, and forcing our service members to work without pay – all because he doesn’t want to lower your health care costs.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govSep 29(source)

If you get health care through the ACA Marketplace, calculate how much more you'll pay next year if Republicans let critical ACA tax credits expire. For many, we're talking THOUSANDS of dollars. Republicans MUST join us to extend these tax credits.

How Much More Would People Pay in Premiums if the ACA's Enhanced Premium Tax Credits Expire? | KFF

The ACA's enhanced premium tax credits arre set to expire at the end of 2025. This calculator estimates how much out-of-pocket premiums would increase for families if Congress does not extend the cred...

Health care, owning a home, raising two kids... none of this should be a pipe dream, but everything Trump and Republicans are doing is pushing it further out of reach. www.investopedia.com/2025-america...

“I’m sure MORE tariffs will fix things right up! And don’t forget a government shutdown for good measure.” – Trump (probably)

Trump says US will impose new tariffs on heavy trucks, drugs and kitchen cabinets

President Donald Trump on Thursday took aim at a broad range of imported goods in announcing a new round of punishing tariffs, saying the U.S. will impose 100% duties on imported branded drugs, 25% tariffs on heavy-duty trucks and 50% tariffs on kitchen cabinets.

Nearly 20 DACA recipients have been abducted by ICE. Dozens more immigrant youth have been detained. We won’t stop fighting to protect them and one day, we WILL pass the American Dream and Promise Act to give them the safety, legal certainty, and pathway to citizenship they need.

A really important reminder in these times: just because Trump *says* something, that doesn’t make it true.

Trump blames Tylenol for autism. Science doesn't back him up

The president and his deputies tied autism to acetaminophen use during pregnancy, presented a cancer drug as possible treatment and said the FDA would change labeling. There's little strong scientific...

Massive cuts to food assistance programs like SNAP mean more people (including kids and seniors) will go hungry. Cancelling the annual hunger report doesn’t erase people who are hungry and won’t shield Republicans from the consequences of their actions.

Trump administration cancels annual hunger report after enacting historic cuts to nation’s safety net | CNN

The Trump administration is terminating the federal government’s annual report on food insecurity in America, saying it had become “redundant, costly and politicized” and noting that “extraneous studi...

I had so much fun at the Adams Avenue Street Fair last weekend! It was good to see so many people out in our community enjoying great live music (over 75 musical acts!) and supporting our local small business vendors.

I was honored to congratulate the graduates of the HOPE (Hispanas Organized for Political Equality) Leadership Institute including Stephanie, Kelly, and Karen from San Diego. They're already incredible leaders and I'm grateful for their commitment to serving our community.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govSep 25(source)

The Trump Administration is all about “enforcing the law” – but will ignore due process, human rights, humanitarian standards, and international law to supposedly do it.

ICE Is Deporting People to Africa on Nearly Un-Trackable Military Flights

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is deporting people to African countries like Ghana on military flights that are nearly un-trackable.

Fact check: President Trump has NOT ended the war in eastern DRC. Also: Egypt and Ethiopia were not at war and President Trump has not brokered any deal to end the tensions between them.

Two countries signed a peace deal in Washington. On the ground, little has changed | CNN

In the mineral-rich eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, new recruits are being trained for battle – and US President Donald Trump’s claimed peace deal for the nation feels like a distant dream.

State censorship of the media to kill negative stories and control the narrative is about as un-American as you can get.

If publicly pressuring the U.S. Attorney General to leverage the Justice Department to prosecute political opponents isn’t authoritarian, what is?

Trump publicly pushes Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute his political foes

Alongside the extraordinary demand, the president also named his former defense attorney late Saturday to replace the head of a key prosecutor’s office he forced out a day earlier.
