Trump and Congressional Republicans have a little over a month to diffuse the health care time bomb they left ticking on American families.
If these tax credits expire, it will spike health care costs for everyone — whether you’re on the ACA or not.

Trump’s making it easier for polluters to profit from poisoning waterways like the Chesapeake Bay.
A healthy Bay is an economic & environmental lifeline for Maryland & clean waterways are vital to communities around the U.S.
But in Trump-world, his big money pals always come first.
With Senate approval of the bill to release the Epstein Files, President Trump must sign it into law, without delay.
It’s past time for the American people to see the FULL truth.
It is shameful that it took so long.
First Trump allowed your premiums to skyrocket & now he wants medical bills to haunt you everywhere you go. Letting sickness crush people’s credit scores is exploitative & cruel.
This is what it looks like when you put corporate debt collectors, not working people, first.
Republicans no longer have any excuse to delay justice.
Senator Thune must bring this bill to a vote, IMMEDIATELY
The victims of Epstein's abuse & the American people deserve transparency.
This is a direct attack on our children & our future.
At a time when we need to be doing more to prepare our kids to compete in the global economy, Trump is going after the agency that strengthens American education. Once again, he's helping our adversaries & competitors.
Watch what they do, not what they say. Republicans say they care about personal responsibility, but when it comes to corporations…
This repeal takes money out of your pocket, money that you are owed if airlines mess up & cause extended delays.
How much more blatant can they be?
Right now, tens of millions of working families are trying to work out how they’re going to pay for their skyrocketing ACA premiums.
The time bomb is still ticking and Republicans are doing nothing to diffuse it — we need to act now.
What happened to going after the "worst of the worst"?
Under this admin, the DHS has pursued 33% fewer child exploitation cases, instead opting to harass & abduct pastors, small business owners, & others in our communities.
As the humanitarian crisis in Gaza goes on, extremist Israeli settlers in the West Bank are attacking Palestinians with impunity, displacing them & disrupting the olive harvest. We must end our complicity. Opposing annexation isn't enough, we must demand an end to the occupation.
Donald Trump repeatedly told us that his tariffs would not increase prices for consumers.
So why on Earth is he lowering his tariffs on various foods?
Duh, because his tariffs raised prices.
Just another day with Don the Con.
After weaponizing the shutdown to block SNAP benefits for hungry people, the Trump Admin is using the oldest trick in the book to do more of the same.
This kind of red tape does nothing to prevent fraud — it just makes it harder for working people to get the benefits they need.
This is another example of what has become one of the most dangerous — yet underreported — aspects of the Trump Administration: they fire people who tell the truth.
Friends don’t want friends engaged in extrajudicial killings. Of course the UK doesn’t want to be complicit in Trump and Hegseth illegally blowing up boats and people in the Caribbean.
Trump is shredding our Constitution and international law while alienating our allies. It has to end.
Trump’s all-in for billionaires with special deals and tax cuts — but wants to shut down the agency that protects Americans from grifters and rip-offs.
The CFPB’s returned $21B to cheated Americans.
No wonder Trump wants it gone. He’s with the cheaters.
Only a billionaire who looks out only for himself and his billionaire pals would be so out of touch as to call Americans’ concerns about affordability a “con job.”
He’s telling people not to believe what they see with their own eyes. Spoken like Don the Con.
On Veterans Day and every day, we honor all those who have served in our military — making extraordinary sacrifices to defend our democracy and our freedom.
We must never take for granted the values they’ve served to protect.
I just voted NO on the bill that fails to prevent the looming health care crisis and fails to rein in Trump’s lawless actions, but I won’t give up — and I urge the American people to stay in the fight despite this disappointing outcome.
I’ve voted 7 times to reopen the government in a way that holds Trump accountable for his lawlessness and prevents a health care crisis.
I’m prepared to work toward a compromise, but this “deal” before us does not come close to meeting those terms. Voting NO.
Full statement:
Trump is still using hunger as a political weapon while also refusing to address skyrocketing health care costs — and seems to be enjoying it. It’s the definition of sadism. A truly twisted man.
