We now have a bipartisan majority of members of Congress demanding a vote to extend ACA tax credits and keep health care affordable for all Americans.

Speaker Johnson, bring this legislation to the House Floor immediately or step out of the way.

Remember this if nothing else: Every shouted lie in Trump’s outburst tonight was an effort to cover up a Trump failure or crime. Every single one.

Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.

3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.

4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.

It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.

Story to come.

🚨BREAKING:

We just learned that the court in my lawsuit — Neguse et al. v. ICE — has temporarily stopped the Trump administration from blocking Members of Congress from unannounced oversight visits to immigration detention facilities.

The rule of law will prevail.

Good news: a court just agreed to review the case challenging Trump's illegal attempt to destroy the CFPB, the agency that has returned more than $21 billion directly to Americans scammed by giant corporations.

The courts must uphold the law – or families will pay the price.
