After driving down the market price of the overdose-reversing naloxone, we're now working to do the same for insulin.

California is taking direct action by supporting contracting for a quality, low-cost insulin supply — and we will keep fighting to slash costs for Californians.

Adelita Grijalva should already be sworn in: Congress still has to be in their offices regardless of shutdown. Mike Johnson's avoidance of her swear-in stops her completing the vote to #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Trump LOVES the shutdown not only because it gives him attention, but because it delays the Epstein files vote once again. He DOES NOT want those files published.

Trump’s “border czar” Tom Homan is caught on tape accepting a bag containing $50,000 in cash from undercover FBI agents-and the Trump administration quashes the investigation…

…so he can summarily detain immigrants who have lived in the US peacefully for decades-without committing crimes

NOT accurate (nothing on Twitter is: don't repost X junk). There's a live Epstein bill in House just 1 vote from passing. Senate just tacked an Epstein *amendment* (among 100s others) onto Pentagon Budget which sadly always passes w/ dead amendments. All laws go thru the House FIRST.
