Millions will lose health care.

Hundreds of thousands of jobs will be lost.

Electricity costs will skyrocket.

Needy families will lose access to food.

The GOP’s budget bill does all that so Donald Trump can give hundreds of billions in tax breaks to his rich friends.

Wow. The Senate was just interrupted by someone screaming: "You people are awful."

This is so needed.

🚨 🇺🇸 #ICEkidnappers agents are literally taking #immigrants cars that they have detained instead of having them towed!

How do they have any right to get into an #immigrants car and drive off in it ‼️

No member of Congress unable to cognitively perform their duties should be able to hide behind their staff.

Everyday Americans see it — and I know my colleagues do as well.

Yet, my amendment was just shot down to ensure members of Congress can actually fulfill their oath of office. ⬇️

Have you written your Senator.about protecting #SNAP and #Medicaid? This vote could be this week!

This is not a partisan issue.
It’s a moral emergency!
