The government is shut down and House Republicans have been on a paid vacation for exactly one month.
While the government is SHUT DOWN. An entire month!
THANK YOU to all of the patriots who made their voices heard peacefully across Washington state. 🦅🇺🇸
This is what democracy looks like! We use our voices and our votes.
NO KINGS IN AMERICA! ❌👑

WA state's health care enrollment window shopping starts this Tuesday, October 21st.
Republicans need to come to the table and negotiate with Democrats NOW. There is no "later."
Republicans can't find a single minute to work with Democrats to keep health care costs from skyrocketing–but don't worry, they had plenty of time this summer to shovel tax breaks to billionaires.
To everyone participating in a No Kings protest today, thank you. Protest PEACEFULLY, look out for your neighbors, and use your voice.
This is part of how we protect our democracy.
There are NO KINGS in America!
❌👑🇺🇲
Despite what Trump may have you think, shutdowns do not require presidents to
❌ fire people en masse,
❌ cancel projects,
❌ or target political opposition.
This isn't our first shutdown, but it IS the first time a President has tried to use one to hurt the American people.
It's day 17 of the Republican shutdown.
WA state families are getting notices in the mail starting NEXT WEEK to let them know how much their health care premiums will increase.
There’s no “later” to fix this health care crisis–we need to do it NOW.
Trump can lie about health care for illegal immigrants all day long.
But the cold, hard reality of hospitals closing, people losing their health care, and premiums more than doubling is going to be a wake-up call.
Trump doesn't care about your health care or how much it costs.
Meanwhile, these guys refuse to even TALK about how to stop the cost of health care from bankrupting middle-class Americans.
Trump wants to hurt people. Democrats are trying to help people. It's never been clearer.
An administration run by crooks and cowards is ONCE AGAIN illegally and punitively blocking funds for JUST blue states.
I'm not intimidated by miserable thugs like Russ Vought, and you shouldn't be either.
This isn't Trump's money. These are taxpayer dollars. HANDS OFF.
When will the shutdown end?
As soon as Republican leaders stop twiddling their thumbs and sit down with Democrats to negotiate.
It could end TODAY if they decide to work with us to reopen the government and stop health care costs from skyrocketing.
AMERICAN CITIZENS, INCLUDING VETERANS, detained by ICE! This is an outrage. Every single Republican needs to answer for this.
In the meantime, we can't let this administration sweep this kind of gross abuse of power under the rug.
SHARE THIS STORY. USE YOUR VOICE!
Like I've said from the very beginning, Trump doesn't care about IVF. He was always lying, and that's why his executive order amounts to ZIP.
Another lie. Another broken promise.
Where on earth does the Trump administration get off talking about half of the country this way? What a sick way to talk about the political opposition.
Democrat, Republican, whatever—we are ALL Americans.
We need to show Trump what WE think with our voices and our votes.
Speaker Johnson is right—he has NO strategy to reopen the government and keep health care premiums from skyrocketing.
Here's an idea: work WITH Democrats if you want our votes and COMPROMISE.
Ready whenever you are.
Increase a little bit? Who is he talking to??
Health care premiums are set to increase in Leader Thune's home state of South Dakota by TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE PERCENT (235%!!!) next year.
Let's be clear: Trump is CHOOSING to fire as many people as he can get away with.
The mass firings have NOTHING to do with the shutdown—and everything to do with Trump trying to break the government as much as is possible and hurt the American people as much as he can.
Now Trump is sending $40 BILLION to bailout Argentina.
This would fund at LEAST a year of the ACA tax credits millions rely on to afford health care.
Meanwhile, Argentina has universal health care.
JD Vance is straight up LYING... AGAIN!
No one is making Trump & Vance fire federal workers during this shutdown—they just want to.
This is just another one of Trump's intimidation tactics—don't be intimidated by these crooks. I'm not.
