It is my profound honor to welcome Orna Neutra and Ruby Chen to the Capitol tomorrow. Both Omer Neutra and Itay Chen, their respective children, were murdered and taken hostage by Hamas on October 7.
Tomorrow, I’m bringing seven incredible New Yorkers to the U.S. Capitol to tell the story of what’s under threat by Trump’s agenda: Medicaid beneficiaries. Disabled veterans fired from the VA. Fired USDA workers. Home health care workers. Democrats are fighting back.
The Trump administration is announcing massive cuts to Social Security staff—more than 7,000 people. Elon Musk is calling Social Security the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time. They’re attacking Social Security, and Democrats are going to fight back for the American people.
Tell the 80 million Americans who worked hard to earn Social Security and depend on their benefits that it’s a Ponzi scheme. Democrats will fight tooth and nail to protect Social Security.
A post from Senator Schumer reads: “Tell the 80 million Americans who worked hard to earn Social Security and depend on their benefits that it’s a Ponzi scheme. Democrats will fight tooth and nail to protect Social Security.”

A post from Jeff Stein reads: “Elon Musk: “Social Security is the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time””

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are trying to shut down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau - the agency that helps you if you get scammed. @senatedem.bsky.social are united in defending the CFPB, which has already returned more than $21 billion to families cheated by Wall Street.
Republicans are trying to gut Medicaid so they can give tax breaks to their billionaire buddies. I spoke with thousands of New Yorkers worried about Republicans’ cuts to Medicaid. These New Yorkers were so energized, and we’re ready to fight side-by-side for health care.
I talked with thousands of New Yorkers worried about the attacks from Republicans on Medicaid. Health care advocates. Union members. Concerned New Yorkers from across our state. I'm fighting for them. And we talked together about how to organize to make Americans' voices heard.
Brooklyn's Elizabeth Gloucester was one of the wealthiest Black women of her time She was a business owner, a brave abolitionist, a philanthropist who raised money for the Colored Orphan Asylum She broke barriers and inspired generations to come! www.nytimes.com/2019/09/18/o...
Senate Republicans just voted to reverse the Methane Waste Emissions Charge. They’re standing for Big Oil, pollution, and higher prices. The more Big Oil leaks natural gas during drilling = The higher prices you have to pay for whatever they do deliver Democrats are fighting for you.
Consumer confidence took its biggest nosedive in 4 years Inflation is trending back up The price of eggs is sky high The threat of a trade war looms And what are Republicans doing about all this? They are trying to cut taxes for billionaires Democrats are fighting for you
DOGE actually lauded these cuts to Veterans Affairs as an example of cutting waste NOT EVEN CLOSE TO TRUE And now they've had to reverse themselves They were cuts to funding for: Chemotherapy Veterans with disabilities Helping veterans suffering from toxic exposure & burn pits
RIGHT NOW: I can announce @repespaillat.bsky.social will deliver our Democratic Spanish-language response to Trump’s Joint Address. @repespaillat.bsky.social embodies the very essence of the American dream, and he’s fought to keep that same promise alive for millions of American families.
