Just days ago, a Republican member of Congress dumped stock in a Medicaid provider company right before voting to strip healthcare away from 17 million Americans. This is why we need to BAN STOCK TRADING! No elected official should be trading stocks while making decisions that impact our country.
As we celebrate this 4th of July, we must remember why we celebrate. It was on this day that our nation declared independence from a mad king who abused his power and the people of this land.   Just as in 1776, these grievances remain just as relevant today. Because in America, there are no kings.
🚨 Trump's big ugly abomination of a bill slashes access to education for students. 🎓 Leaves 4 million students without Pell Grants 🎓 Cuts graduate and student loan programs Our students deserve better. This is cruelty, and it’s shameful. I will vote HELL NO.
🚨 Trump's big ugly abomination of a bill guts food assistance for our communities. 🍽️ 18 million children will lose access to food assistance and school meals  🍽️ 3 million seniors, veterans, and vulnerable families will suffer  🍽️ The largest cuts to SNAP in American history I am voting HELL NO.
🚨 Trump's big ugly abomination of a bill is a direct attack on our healthcare programs. 🩺 17 million Americans will lose access to healthcare 💸 $1.3 TRILLION stripped from Medicaid & Medicare 🚫 Planned Parenthood defunded I will vote HELL NO as you know.
Trump’s big ugly abomination of a bill gives permanent tax breaks to billionaires and corporations on the backs of working families. 📈 The wealthiest 10% will gain 4% in income. 📉 The poorest 10% will lose 4%. New Mexico families? Left holding the bag. Again. We will vote HELL NO.
Looks like Leadership called their bluff—the vote is called now at 9:30 pm on the rule. Votes on this big ugly abomination of a bill will happen late into the night.
Surprise! Freedom Caucus members are threatening to vote NO on the GOP rule to move the bill (but NOT in the morning? 🤔) This is political theater. The deals are cut & they have long abandoned being true fiscal conservatives. They’ll put up a faux fight tonight, but not for our country tomorrow.

While “Fiscal Conservatives” are issuing strongly worded letters to House Leadership (for real, that actually happened) — Republicans have stalled out on the Floor without enough votes to move to the #BigUglyBill. Here’s your mid-afternoon update. ⬇️
Things are stalled out here on the House Floor as Trump tries to arm twist and get Freedom Caucus members onboard with massive deficit spending… So, Congresswoman Lateefah Simon and I took the opportunity to break down what big ugly bill means for the hard working people of our communities.
It’s 3 AM and I just rolled into DC to vote on this big abomination of a bill passed by the Senate. There’s a lot to be said about this bill. But, I’m ready to vote a Hell NO on it. It’s bad for our communities. It’s bad for our kids. And, it’s bad for our economy. We’re here for the fight!
Trump’s big abomination of a bill will slash tax credits for families and small business owners who get healthcare coverage through the marketplace.   This will cause premiums to SOAR, leading to more stress and creating yet another barrier that would prevent New Mexicans from getting healthcare.
