It's hard to get more than 3/4th of Americans to agree on anything! This is what we're fighting for.

New KFF polling shows 78% of the public say Congress should extend the ACA’s enhanced premium tax credits, which otherwise would expire at the end of the year. That includes most Republicans and MAGA supporters. https://on.kff.org/4q7ElGy

Democrats are fighting to preserve an Obamacare tax credit. Without it, a 55-year-old couple making $85K would see their premiums more than triple to $24,535.

If every single developed nation in the world can make universal healthcare work, maybe it's not the system that's complex, but our refusal to challenge big pharma and insurance giants.

I couldn't think of a better person to talk about what this government shutdown means for Wisconsin, the country, and the healthcare we're fighting for than my good friend from my home state, @RepGwenMoore. open.spotify.com/episode/5XeL...

Day one of the government shutdown, and House Republicans are still on vacation. While they're out of town, I'm here in DC fighting to reopen the government and to make sure everyone has affordable healthcare.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 30(source)

Project 2025 author and Trump's Budget director is salivating at the idea of a shutdown. It gives him an excuse to blame Democrats when he fires even more federal workers. He wants to "traumatize federal employees."

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 30(source)

The government shuts down in just a few hours, and House Republicans are nowhere to be found. But they're still spreading lies on social media. I'm here to correct the record.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 30(source)

Social Security and Medicare are your dollars. Trump threatening to cut them to "win" the shutdown will hurt Americans. Why is the American President threatening his own people?!

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 30(source)

Some September behind the scenes moments!

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 29(source)

I'm here in Washington, DC, to make sure that we do everything possible to prevent a government shutdown and protect healthcare, but House Republicans are giving themselves another week of vacation. I'll keep you posted on what's happening over the next few days.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 29(source)

So Fox News is blaming farmers for higher prices? I guess it's everyone else's fault but Trump, according to Fox News.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 29(source)

So let me get this straight. Trump gets into a trade war with China. China stops buying American crops. Argentine farmers fill the gap, screwing US farmers out of billions. Trump then sends $20 billion to help out Argentina's economy. How is this winning? What am I missing?

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 29(source)

The super-rich want us fighting and divided left vs. right. The real divide is billionaire elites vs. working people.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 28(source)

Every worker deserves a union!

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 27(source)

Today is National Gay Men’s HIV & AIDS Awareness Day. As Chair of the HIV/AIDS Caucus and Co-Chair of the @equality.house.gov I'm committed to fighting for gay men's access to HIV education, prevention, and treatments.

A good read from the @captimes.com.

Editorial | Pocan fights 21st century McCarthyism

Editorial: Pocan's response to Kirk's murder was to decry the shooting and to defend Americans right to express their opinions without fear of violence or retribution.

The Trump administration wants you to feel powerless. They are relentlessly flooding the zone to overwhelm you and get you to tune out. We can’t let them win. Speak up. If the people lead, the leaders will follow.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 25(source)

Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House, and yet we are just days away from a government shutdown because they refuse to work with Democrats to prevent a healthcare crisis that will drive up costs for everyone.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govSep 24(source)

Here’s the truth: Trump and his policies are extremely unpopular. His favorability rating is at -17 and has been dropping steadily since inauguration day. The more the American people see, the more they are rejecting his extreme agenda and looking for someone who’ll fight for them.
