There is no excuse for Israel under Netanyahu to block food, bomb aid convoys, and shoot civilians at food lines. It’s abhorrent and illegal. This lifesaving aid must be allowed to enter Gaza ASAP.

It’s not easy to convince everyday people that trillions added to the debt and cuts to Medicaid to pay for tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy will somehow benefit them. No wonder the Big Ugly Bill is polling so badly. I’m glad more people are noticing! apnews.com/article/trum...

Most US adults think the GOP tax bill will help the wealthy and harm the poor, AP-NORC poll finds

A new AP-NORC poll shows that while Republican elected officials are promoting their recently passed tax and spending bill as a win for working Americans, everyday Americans broadly see it as a win…

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 22(source)

Trump said he would give his “rich as hell” donors a tax cut and Republicans in Congress fought like hell to make it happen. How will they pay for it? By ripping millions of Americans off of Medicaid. I believe we should tax the rich and that healthcare is a human right!

New video just dropped! Trump and Republicans just got their budget signed into law. Thought it was bad? It’s worse.

Even a backstage view doesn’t give away the secrets of Rick Wilcox, a fan favorite in the Wisconsin Dells. Their show & theater is over 25 years old and rated the #1 thing to do in the Dells by Trip Advisor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEsr...

We weren't joking. Republicans' Big Ugly Bill will make health insurance costs go up: www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Cost of Obamacare expected to soar as subsidies expire and insurers hike premiums

People who get their health insurance through the Affordable Care Act could see increases of more than 75% each month, one expert said.

House Republicans: We couldn't lower costs like we promised... but we WERE able to kill off Big Bird and Elmo! apnews.com/article/pbs-...

Congress approves Trump's $9 billion cut to public broadcasting and foreign aid

The House has approved President Donald Trump’s request to claw back about $9 billion for public broadcasting and foreign aid.

Is this what winning looks like? Or just plain cruelty?

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 18(source)

I led 50 of my colleagues, along with @congressmanraja.bsky.social & @amo.house.gov to call out Rubio’s morally reprehensible decision and urge him to release all viable food assistance.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 18(source)

Secretary Rubio is planning to withhold 500 metric tons of vital food aid that could feed 1.5 million starving children… and then incinerate the food once it expires. UNACCEPTABLE!

The system is working… for the richest Americans.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 17(source)

Trump and Congressional Republicans’ promise: lower the cost of living. Our reality: skyrocketing food and housing costs. Do you think they’re liars or just incompetent? Maybe both…

Today, I chat with Fran Hutchins, Executive Director of @equalityfed.bsky.social about the future of LGBTQI+ rights and how we fight back.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJul 16(source)

When marriage equality in the U.S. was decided in 2015, we thought the equality movement would be on a smooth path forward. But the anti-equality movement, largely tied to the extreme religious right, refuses to let go of their bigotry. open.spotify.com/episode/1bhj...

Prices are continuing to rise. My Republican colleague’s response? Cut Medicaid and add trillions to the debt, just to give a tax cut for their ultra-rich donors.
