Republican politicians ended the Affordable Care Act tax credits, driving up health insurance premiums for families across our district, Wisconsin, and the country. I’ve heard from so many people who are now paying significantly more each month. youtu.be/880gsanCwow

Happy birthday, @baldwin.senate.gov ! Tammy is the same smart, compassionate, hardworking person in the U.S. Senate as she was when we served together on the Dane County Board of Supervisors 30 years ago!

Great news! I’m excited to announce as part of this past year’s funding process, I secured more than $10 million for local projects throughout our district.

1. A passport, which more than half of Americans don’t have and costs at least $130 OR 2. A birth certificate PLUS your photo ID with matching names, which nearly 70 million married women lack OR 3. Military services papers (not a military ID alone) with sensitive info. I’m voting NO.

There seems to be some confusion about the SAVE America Act. If it becomes law, you will NOT be able to vote with your drivers license alone. You’d need:

Republicans have been getting walloped in special elections all year, so they want to make it damn near impossible to vote! I will be voting NO and urge every one of my colleagues to do the same.

The SAVE Act would require every American citizen to show a passport or birth certificate and government ID to vote. 146 MILLION Americans do not have a passport. 69 MILLION women do not have a valid birth certificate due to surname changes. The SAVE Act is an anti-voter bill.

Trump promised to “rapidly bring down costs.” Republicans in Congress said lowering prices was their top priority. More than a year into Trump's second term and one thing is clear: they lied and you’re paying the price.

While you’re getting ready for the Super Bowl, remember that Trump’s tariff taxes made your day WAY more expensive.

Throwback to the time Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent couldn’t answer a question that’s covered in Economics 101: Who pays tariffs? Here’s what was likely going on inside his head.

Great news! Time ranked @uwmadison.bsky.social among the top 20 universities in the world. IN THE WORLD! I’m honored to have secured hundreds of millions of dollars for our incredible institution and look forward to seeing it thrive for years to come.

A new report shows that Trump’s tariff taxes have cost the average Wisconsinite in my district $1,960. See how much more you’re paying at: democrats-budget.house.gov/legislation/....

I am excited to announce that I’ve introduced legislation with @ross.house.gov, @cleaver.house.gov, and @repemiliasykes.bsky.social to end prison gerrymandering!

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govFeb 6(source)

No one considers a prison their home. Yet prison gerrymandering counts incarcerated people as residents in places they don’t call home, giving power to regions of the country and elected officials who do not value their concerns.

This week, I voted once again to NOT fund ICE. They are a rogue agency that must be held accountable.

Trump and Musk decimated USAID. Estimates show this has already led to 1 MILLION preventable deaths. The short documentary, Rovina’s Choice, tells one of those stories. Trump can bring USAID back at any time. Choosing not to is cruelty for cruelty’s sake. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oj0P...
