My House Democratic colleagues and I remain in Washington ready to negotiate a bipartisan funding bill that ensures the well-being of every American and addresses the health care crisis. I urge Republicans to return to Washington and work with us to do just that and end their shutdown.
From a March extension that hurt vulnerable populations to the Big Ugly Law that ripped health care and food assistance from millions and now this shutdown, Republicans decided they would rather raise health care premiums, shut down the government and lay off our federal workforce than take action.
From day one of the 119th Congress, Democrats have stood ready to craft bipartisan funding legislation that meets the needs of the American people, just as we did in December. Republicans have rejected us at every turn.
Hundreds of thousands of Virginians will lose their health insurance due to Medicaid cuts in the Republicans’ Big Ugly Law and their refusal to extend the ACA enhanced tax credits. Health care costs will rise and providers will close or cut services. This goes beyond insulting — it’s cruel.
In Virginia, our economy and communities will be hit hard by this shutdown. As the state with the second highest number of federal employees, we will see workers unsure when to expect their next paycheck, small businesses waiting on loans to process and families worried about what the future holds.
Republicans control both chambers of Congress and the White House. They had every tool at their disposal to avoid a government shutdown. Yet their actions have caused immense uncertainty for millions of Americans, amidst a health care and affordability crisis of their own making. 🧵
House Republicans are nowhere to be found as government funding runs out at midnight. I joined @demwomencaucus.bsky.social Chair @fernandez.house.gov to answer your questions about the looming government shutdown.
We have less than 72 hours before government funding runs out and we face a shutdown at midnight on October 1st. Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought threatened more mass federal employee layoffs if the government shuts down. Read more in my newsletter below ⬇️
I got the chance to sit down and get to know our newest member of Congress and a new face to the Virginia delegation: @repwalkinshaw.bsky.social! Stay tuned for our conversation about our friend Gerry Connolly, late nights in Washington and raising young kids in Congress!
Each year during #ClimateWeek, @foodtank.bsky.social convenes leaders from across sectors to break down silos and build sustainable agriculture and food systems. I joined in this important conversation to discuss keeping the faith even when things seem bleak.
Republicans claimed Democrats were spreading fear when we warned providers could close due to Medicaid cuts in the Big Ugly Law. But now, we’re seeing those fears come true. Earlier this month, Augusta Medical Group closed three primary care centers in Virginia in response to the Big Ugly Law.
No parent should have to choose between furthering their education and raising a child. I joined @whipkclark.bsky.social and @duckworth.senate.gov to introduce the Child Care Access Means Parents in Schools (CCAMPIS) Reauthorization Act to ensure parenting students can access affordable child care.
Graphic. Background is photo of college graduate hugging two children. Text reads, “CCAMPIS REAUTHORIZATION ACT: EXPANDING AFFORDABLE, HIGH-QUALITY CHILD CARE FOR THE WORKFORCE OF TOMORROW.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present.
Republicans jammed a funding bill through the House, then canceled votes. Senate Republicans rejected a Democratic alternative to address the health care crisis they created. Now, President Trump won’t meet with Democrats to find a solution. Republicans are leading us towards a government shutdown.
Tweet from Manu Ranu that reads, “Trump cancels Thursday meeting with Democratic leaders ahead of Sept. 30 govt shutdown deadline. Now a staring contest ahead of potential shutdown with painful consequences.”
