My Republican colleagues voted to cut Medicaid, SNAP, crop insurance for farmers, and public education for kids.

You may be wondering, what the hell is a reconciliation bill?
On the fourth episode of my podcast, I am joined by an expert on this topic, former director of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, Shalanda Young.

I officially challenge all of Wisconsin’s Congressional Republicans to defend their vote to slash Medicaid and cut taxes for the ultra-rich. Let’s do it in a town hall format for maximum transparency!
As a government employee, I can’t hold any federal contracts. And rightfully so.
My ELON MUSK Act would also apply that common sense rule to “special government employees” just like Elon.

Just heard from dairy producers in Wisconsin that had their Dairy Business Innovation funding impounded/frozen. Working to ensure that more ill-conceived actions from the Trump/Musk administration don’t hurt other farmers and Wisconsin Dairy.
More to come…

BOOM: Rep. Mark Pocan takes the GLOVES OFF during my interview with him:
“Donald Trump is full of shit (and he) needs to get the fuck away from Mar-a-Lago” and instead come to talk to real people.
🔥🔥🔥
Republicans just voted to move forward with a plan to rip healthcare and food assistance away from working people all to pay for a tax cut for billionaires.
Every single Democrat voted against this.
We can't let them get away with this Republican Rip-Off. Make your voices heard!
Today, I heard from folks who rely on Medicaid to survive. @housedemocrats.bsky.social will NOT provide a single vote to cut Medicaid.
The House GOP majority is voting on a tax cut for their billionaire donors at the expense of Medicaid, covering nearly a quarter of Americans.
I will NEVER support cutting Medicaid or giving handouts to billionaires, but especially not both!
When Republicans tell you they didn't vote to cut Medicaid, ask them what their list of cuts are to pay for the billionaire tax cuts. I urge all my Republican colleagues to vote NO on the reconciliation bill.

How much richer will Elon get with an FAA contract to another one of his companies? My ELON MUSK Act would stop this blatant corruption.
President Trump and President Musk need to get on the same page. After creating unnecessary chaos, they once again prove their incompetence.
Happy Public Schools Week! As a proud public school graduate from kindergarten through college, I know firsthand the value of a strong public education system. That’s why I introduced a resolution in Congress to recognize and celebrate Public Schools Week.
A lot of people have been reaching out to us about the chaos and confusion we’re seeing in the Trump administration. It’s intentional. By emphasizing how EVERYONE will be affected, we can provide the clarity people need. Check out this week’s #MagicMonday!

Wealthy elites know that tax cuts for the super-rich are extremely unpopular. It’s why they try to distract us with scapegoats like immigrants, trans people, and a catch-all like DEI. Don’t fall for it.
Let’s call it like it is: The Great Republican Ripoff.
Trump and Musk slashing entire government agencies is NOT about waste, fraud, and abuse. It’s about finding cash for a $4.5 trillion tax break for a small group of out-of-touch billionaires, including themselves. It’s not right vs. left. It’s wealthy elites vs. normal people.
It's genuinely unfortunate that Republicans didn't show up to hear the concerns of Wisconsin farmers who are very worried about what Trump & Elon cutting their federal funding & contracts could mean for their livelihoods and the future of their family farms.
I met with scientists at University of Wisconsin-Madison, visited a local Head Start program, and hosted a press conference on the Republican Rip Off, the massive tax cut for the wealthiest Americans Congressional Republican are trying to pass.
