It's October and provisions of Trump's Big Ugly Bill are taking effect that cut Medicaid and eliminate funding for SNAP food assistance. Why are Republicans supporting taking food and healthcare away from Americans?

Trump's pre-election propaganda campaign is a desperate attempt to make people love him and the GOP despite everything they have done to make life more costly and difficult for Americans. To make taxpayers pay to air this garbage is yet another abuse of power.

Fourteen months after going dark because the Trump Administration cruelly cut its services, the dedicated 988 LGBTQI+ Youth Crisis Line has finally been restored.
It's critical that LGBTQI+ youth who call the crisis line are able to speak with someone who is specially trained to meet their unique needs. Thank you to @SenatorBaldwin and my @EqualityCaucus colleagues for their efforts to restore this lifesaving resource.
I support @JoaquinCastrotx's bill to crack down on these illegal settlements and those who facilitate their construction and expansion.
Israeli settlements are illegal land grabs that are violently displacing Palestinians from their homes. The US must use our leverage to stop settlement expansion and attempted annexation of the West Bank.
Starting Oct. 22, a new Trump Admin rule could disrupt Americans’ ability to get lifesaving, affordable medications from licensed pharmacies abroad.
Salah Sarsour is a legal resident of the United States, has lived here more than 30 years, and is a pillar of the Milwaukee community. Yet he is being threatened for deportation for no apparent reason other than his advocacy on behalf of Palestinian rights.

This story is as true now as it was in 2021. The Trump Administration has only made life more cushy for its billionaire buddies. Democrats believe in tax fairness and put workers and families first. Billionaires must pay their fair share.

Life is far more expensive for Americans who are not the GOP's billionaire buddies. Yet the Trump Administration & Republicans who prop up its corruption are wasting your taxpayer dollars on absurd vanity projects for Trump, and now on taxpayer-funded ads hoping you'll forget the GOP's failures.
The thousands of beagles confined in inhumane conditions at Ridglan Farms was a wake-up call, for our community and the country. We also witnessed what is possible when people come together to demand change. This legislation honors that commitment.

Now Trump wants to pick your major in college if you need a student loan. If your career doesn't make enough money to please him, he apparently wants to end it before it even begins.

We live in a country under Republicans and Trump where working people are barely getting paid enough to survive while the ones getting big raises are the CEOs who take more money than they know what to spend it on.
Inequality is warping our economy and society.
Rep. Quigley and I led 41 of our colleagues in a letter calling on Secretary Rubio to work with Israel to ensure the release of Palestinian healthcare workers. They are arbitrarily being detained without formal charges or due process.

Members of Congress and presidents, who can influence the stock market with a single sentence, need to be banned from trading stocks because we have access to confidential information. Using our public service for personal financial gain is called corruption, plain and simple.
Three months ago, in the House Appropriations Committee, I introduced an amendment to prohibit your taxpayer dollars from being spent on Trump's obnoxious golden ballroom.
Unfortunately, every Republican voted against it.
Today Rep. Langworthy and I introduced the COMPACT Act, which will modernize federally funded biomedical research and end inhumane testing practices on cats and dogs.
Instead of focusing on grocery and housing prices, the president now wants to rename Ford's Theatre, where President Lincoln was assassinated, after himself.
Quite a display of insecurity and jealousy!

FACT: Since 1989, the U.S. economy has added about 51 million jobs. Roughly 50 million of those new jobs were under Democratic presidents.
