Congressman Greg Casar
@RepCasar
Representing #TX35 from East Austin to West San Antonio. Chair of @USProgressives. Labor organizer. Lover of migas and long runs, just not at the same time.
Americans are getting screwed by corrupt politicians and big corporations that are driving up costs while keeping pay and benefits down. Our new @USProgressives task forces are focused on solving exactly those problems.
This is the biggest story in politics right now that almost no one knows about. Donald Trump knows he can't win the midterm election fair and square. So he's trying to rig the rules in Texas before an election even happens. If Trump's insane redistricting plan happens in Texas,…
If you’re one of 17 million people about to lose their health care, Republicans have some good news: they’re renaming the Kennedy Center Opera House after Melania Trump.
Simpson: Yes, we renamed the opera house at the Kennedy Center for the First Lady… an excellent way to recognize her support and commitment to promoting the arts
This is getting weird!
Breaking News: Speaker Mike Johnson said he would shut down the House until September to block a vote on calling for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. nyti.ms/4nZtblR
Republicans in Congress voted to defund public radio stations that help families stay safe and informed. Trump's billionaire buddies get tax cuts for an extra yacht — but our kids lose PBS.

Council Member Spelman was a fearless leader for Austin, a teacher for the next generation, and my friend. Bill was the first Austin elected official I ever campaigned for, after he was one of the lead authors of our Water Breaks law. He was for true housing affordability,…
No more nibbling around the edges of a crisis. No more complicated formulas that leave people wondering if anyone gets helped. No more fear of billionaires or big special interests. We’re building an agenda that actually solves the problems facing working people.
Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos should not pay into Social Security at a lower rate than police officers and truck drivers do. We need to make billionaires pay their fair share so we can expand Social Security and guarantee all seniors a decent life.
Millions from Amazon, Facebook, and CBS. A $400 million “palace in the sky” from a foreign country. Billions in corrupt crypto deals. Trump’s corruption is staggering.
This should be breaking news every American hears about. A new study shows more than 1,000 Americans will die every year because Republicans cut Medicaid to pay for billionaire tax cuts. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
BREAKING: Rep. @GregCasar shares that the Inspector General will launch an investigation into the government's handling of the Texas flooding.
This is a five-alarm fire for democracy, and the entire country MUST pay attention. Trump’s scheme to rig Texas maps is just the start — if we don’t stop it, it’ll spread across the whole nation. We need to fight like hell to stop it. rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
Trump is pressuring the Texas GOP to radically gerrymander their congressional districts so that Republicans can keep the House in 2026. Congressional Progressive Caucus chair @GregCasar is sounding the alarm. thenation.com/article/politi…
Trump is stealing from the sick to give tax cuts to the rich. People who get health insurance through the ACA will pay 15% more in 2026. The largest increase in seven years. Billionaires get special treatment. Working people get screwed. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
After deadly floods swept through Texas, we demanded answers. Today, we secured an independent investigation into whether cuts to weather agencies made the disaster worse and make us less safe going forward. Texans deserve answers — and real action before the next disaster.
Rep. Greg Casar has secured an independent investigation of cuts to weather agencies following the Texas flooding disaster, according to a press release from the congressman. cbsaustin.com/news/local/rep…

It doesn’t matter whether you’re progressive or conservative, we all know: collective bargaining is essential for workers. Now it’s time for Republicans in Congress to show whether they’ll vote like they talk — or if they’re all hat and no cattle.
This is a five alarm fire for the voting rights of all Americans. This coming week, Texans must stop Trump’s insane redistricting plan that could spread like wildfire across America.
Just last week, Elon Musk’s AI called itself MechaHitler. Why are we giving it $200 million taxpayer dollars? x.com/MorePerfectUS/…
BREAKING: xAI announces that the Department of Defense will begin using Grok. The department has awarded a contract to Musk's company that has a $200 million ceiling.
