Their policies are already so unpopular, it’s no wonder congressional Republicans delayed the most harmful impacts until after the next election.
All of us - not just those on Medicaid or food stamps - will be directly paying for the costs of the billionaire tax breaks in the Trump budget package. Here's how.
Another thing Trump is actively making more expensive: our health insurance premiums.
People who get health insurance through the Affordable Care Act could soon see their monthly premiums sharply increase as subsidies expire and insurers propose a major premium hike for 2026. nbcnews.com/health/health-…

Congrat’s to our dear friend @Jerrythekid21 on winning back to back PMT Lib of the Year awards- w a very special message from Secretary Mayor Pete Buttigieg
He promised to cut prices on day one. Instead he increased them - on purpose.
More than ever, Americans must remain grounded in the founding principles of our republic. I'm proud to be among those from across the political spectrum supporting the #WeHoldTheseTruths project to remind us of the values we hold in common, and to help make the Constitution…

Today proves that Republicans were serious about one promise: to cut taxes for the wealthy. All the rest was bullshit.
Thank you to Stacy for sharing her story - and for doing what any parent would do to make sure their daughter has the care she needs to live at home. As this bill on GOP Medicaid cuts goes back to the House, it’s not too late to remind Washington politicians just how much is at…
VP Vance has cast the deciding vote in the Senate to cut Medicaid, take away food assistance, blow up the deficit, and add tax breaks for the wealthiest. This bill is unpopular because it is wrong. Congress votes this week, but it’s our voices - and our votes - that will have…
It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.
If there was ever a time to call your Senator, this is it. Voting has begun on the GOP plan to cut off health care for working-class Americans and slash taxes for the wealthiest. This bill would kick millions off their health insurance, and thousands will even lose their lives…
In addition to kicking millions of Americans off their health insurance, cutting taxes for the wealthy, and adding trillions to the deficit, other parts of Trump’s Budget are also harmful and unpopular. We need to make sure more people learn about them. Read more here:…
