This isn't an exaggeration: Republicans literally kicked KIDS off of food assistance so they could give billionaires more tax breaks.
This wasn't an accident this was a deliberate Republican policy CHOICE.

Trump started a reckless war with Iran, created a global economic crisis—and for what?
A WORSE deal than Obama made without dropping a single bomb.
Apparently, the "Art of the Deal" is to launch pointless wars that end in total surrender and make life more expensive at home.
Putting a baby to work? That's a joke.
What's not a joke? Republicans are gutting child labor laws, while Trump has stopped enforcing the ones we have.
It shouldn't be cheaper for a company to break child labor laws than to follow them—let's pass my CHILD Labor Act.
Wildfire season is a dangerous time when first responders and families are on high alert. I will do everything I can in the Other Washington to make sure Spokane and communities across the state have the resources they need to respond and rebuild.
Trump says we can’t afford child care—but the truth is we can’t afford to ignore it.
Trump's tantrum is a threat to our national security.
Pulte is a partisan goon who is so deeply unqualified to be Acting Director of National Intelligence. Keeping him in this position until Trump gets his way is dangerous and unacceptable.
While you unplug practically everything in your house to save on your electricity bill, Trump wants to spend hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to build himself a ballroom at the White House.
📢 Trump's only plan to keep Social Security solvent is to cut your benefits.
Trump has now twice failed to propose a plan in his budget, and one of his top budget officials refuses to say why.
Republicans are pushing for a half-TRILLION-dollar increase for Trump’s war budget and not a single cent more for child care.
Trump promised no new wars and lower costs—he broke that promise.
Democrats are pushing real solutions to actually make child care affordable.
NEW: @murray.senate.gov, @warren.senate.gov, & I released a report on Trump’s BROKEN PROMISE to make child care more affordable ⬇️
He's not just refusing to lower child care costs—he’s making it more expensive and taking a wrecking ball to child care programs

Another broken promise from Trump.
Apparently there is no money for your health care but there is about $300 million of YOUR tax dollars for his gold-plated ballroom.
This is an absolute tragedy.
I'm grateful for the first responders on the scene, and my thoughts are with the family and loved ones of those whose lives were lost in this horrific incident.
Dreamers grew up in America. They study, work, and live in America. They make America better, and they belong in America. 🇺🇸
The Dream Act is bipartisan. We should pass it today. There is no need to force these young people to live in fear and uncertainty.
Republicans CHOSE to let the ACA tax credits expire.
Republicans CHOSE to drive up costs and force families to drop insurance.
They chose tax cuts for giant corporations and billions for ICE over health care for American families.
14 Republican attorneys general are seriously arguing that medication abortion is a threat to America's waterways.
It is as unhinged and insane as it sounds.
These people will do or say anything to force women to stay pregnant. America's pro-choice majority needs to get LOUD.
Trump is cheering on a bad deal to end a war with Iran he should have NEVER started.
American servicemembers killed and injured. Thousands of civilians killed. Billions of taxpayer dollars lit on fire.
All for a worse deal than what Obama negotiated without dropping a single bomb.
I don't care who you are—we should ALL be able to agree that detaining babies and kids is WRONG. There's no other way to put it.
ICE is out of control, and every Republican who just voted to cut them ANOTHER blank check is complicit in their inhumane actions.
🤳 CDC Director, Surgeon General, Assistant Secretary for Pandemic Preparedness, FDA Commissioner...is anybody there?
Ebola and hantavirus are on the rise—who’s in charge here? Well, thanks to Trump…nobody!
Exposing Americans to toxic chemicals is NOT "Making America Healthy Again."
And this isn't the only time Trump & his goons have put your health at risk to pad the pockets of giant corporations.
We need an EPA that looks out for families, NOT billionaires.
So much for only going after violent criminals.
Trump's DHS has no oversight or accountability. It is out of control, and Republicans just cut ICE another $70 BILLION check, no questions asked.
The American people have been clear: enough is ENOUGH.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio told the me he supports the Iran war "strongly."
You support this war? You own the consequences: billions of taxpayer dollars lit on fire, American servicemembers killed and injured, and economic pain here at home.
