The GOP had time to kick 15 million Americans off their health insurance. They had time to take food away from 16 million kids. They had time to give tax breaks to billionaires. But NOW, they’re closing down for the summer? To hide the Epstein Files and cover up for those…
Instead of helping communities recover and rebuild, Republicans are voting to shut off emergency weather alerts. Yep, right at the height of hurricane and wildfire seasons. Because who cares who's in danger — as long as their billionaire donors get their tax break?
On today's Democratic Daily Download, @RepRashida explains how Trump's Big Ugly Law betrays our communities: Ripping away health care and food for families all to give tax breaks to billionaires.

Totally innocent and not at all suspicious behavior.

The way we secure progress is by standing together. Proud to stand in solidarity with @Teamsters25 as they fight for the wages and benefits they deserve.
We’re 6 months into Donald Trump’s presidency. What has the GOP "accomplished"? Kicked 17 million people off their health care. Refused to release the Epstein files. Increase costs through senseless tariff war. Everything they promised was a lie.
Republicans fear Trump more than they love their country. They pushed through the Big, Ugly law KNOWING it would punish their own constituents. All to fund tax breaks for billionaires. Cowards.
In the richest nation on earth, no parent should have to choose between groceries and child care. No kid should be denied an early education because of cost. And no caregiver should have to live on poverty wages. Democrats' Child Care for Working Families Act is about fixing…
13 years ago in Aurora, Colorado, a senseless mass shooting claimed the lives of 12 innocent people and wounded 70 others. Today, we remember the victims. We stand with the survivors. And we honor them by fighting for an America free from gun violence
It’s pretty simple: Trump campaigned on constant, explicit promises to release the Epstein Files. Now that he’s in power, he’s changed his tune. What’s he hiding? x.com/DJJudd/status/…
I asked President Donald Trump at the White House if he’d consider appointing a special counsel for the Jeffrey Epstein investigation— he told me, “I have nothing to do with it.”
60% of Americans can’t afford the basics. The GOP response? Tax breaks for the already rich and powerful. nytimes.com/2025/07/16/us/…
I'm proud to stand with the @Teamsters25 as they fight for better wages and better benefits. It's time for Republic Services to agree to a fair contract that ensures the dignity of its workers in #MA5 and beyond. Let's get it done. boston25news.com/news/local/mas…
Overnight, Republicans passed another cruel bill that slashes local news. Steals free educational programming from kids. And makes everyone less safe. They claim the bill was about so-called waste, but they just jammed through a massive tax giveaway to billionaires. Their…
George Retes is an American citizen and a disabled U.S. Army veteran. ICE agents dragged him out of his car, pepper sprayed him, and forced him to sit in detention for 3 days. If they'll do that to Mr. Retes, what will they do to you and your family?
US Citizen detained by ICE: Clearly it didn't matter that I was a citizen, or a veteran, or that I identified who I was. They ignored everything I said, and they just they broke my window and they dragged me out. I let them know that I was a veteran and I wasn't doing anything…
“The message to families at home is so clear: You are on your own.” Health care slashed. School programs cut. @WhipKClark lays out what GOP tax and budget priorities really mean for working families.
Republicans are making life more expensive and less secure. Democrats are fighting to put the American Dream back within reach of working people.
