🛑 Today’s the last day to register to vote in NJ. Jack Ciattarelli backed Trump’s agenda and billionaire tax breaks. If you’re not rich, he’s not fighting for you. Register now and shut the door on MAGA politics.

The #GOP refuses to even show up in DC. They want to blow up the government and our healthcare. This is a #Trumpshutdown.

Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson predicted Monday the federal government shutdown may become the longest in history, saying he “won’t negotiate” with Democrats until they hit pause on their health care demands and reopen. https://to.pbs.org/4nfq5Je
WATCH LIVE: Senate gavels in as Johnson warns this shutdown could be longest in U.S. history
It's a highly unusual mass layoff widely seen as way to seize on the shutdown to reduce the scope of government. Vice President JD Vance has warned of "painful" cuts ahead, even as employee unions sue...

A new report suggests that the DHS blocked funding for Muslim organizations that were seeking federal grants for increased security to combat hate crimes at their centers. FEMA allocates hundreds of millions of dollars in federal funds to religious organizations that require enhanced security.
Report: DHS Cut FEMA-Based Security Funds to Muslim Orgs
“I think they were worried about the optics of giving money to Muslim organizations,” one source suggested.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.

I was working at the U.S. Attorney’s office taking on the opioid crisis at the very same time as Jack was making millions of dollars creating materials downplaying the dangers of opioids. Families across New Jersey suffered while Jack got rich.

REPORTER: Do you support repealing Obamacare and what's your healthcare plan?

MIKE JOHNSON: We worked on repealing and replacing Obamacare back in 2017. I still have PTSD from the experience. We know that American healthcare needs dramatic reform. We have lots of ideas.

(So, no plan)
