Trump's ACA cuts aren't just bad; they're brutal for OH-11, and now families are paying the price. Here’s what Talia from Cleveland says she is going through thanks to Trump’s agenda.

I am praying for the two West Virginia Guardsmen and their loved ones after today’s horrific attack in D.C.
There is no place for this sort of senseless violence in our country.

Republicans have made everything more expensive — even Thanksgiving. Thanks to Trump’s agenda everything from the cost of cranberry sauce to turkey is up 10% from just last year!

Elon Musk & Trump bragged that DOGE would cut $2 TRILLION in fraud/waste, and they'd cut everyone a $5k check.
The exact opposite happened. They fired thousands of federal workers, cut resources for the poorest and most vulnerable, and wasted taxpayer dollars. What a disgrace.

‘That doesn’t exist’: Doge reportedly quietly disbanded ahead of schedule
Statement by Trump administration confirms longstanding suspicions that Musk-led agency is on its way out
The “department of government efficiency” (Doge) has apparently been dissolved with eight months still remaining on its contract, ending a drawn-out campaign of invading federal agencies and firing thousands of federal workers.
“That doesn’t exist,” office of personnel management (OPM) director Scott Kupor told Reuters earlier this month when asked about Doge’s status, adding that it was no longer a “centralized entity”. Continue reading...

The Do Nothing MAGA Congress is at it again. After hiding for six weeks during Trump’s shutdown, they wrapped up the legislative week with a vote on denouncing socialism...
Meanwhile, grocery prices are up and millions are about to lose health care. 🙄😒

It doesn't have to be this way. Democrats have been ready to vote to extend ACA credits for months.
Republicans haven't been interested - and now millions will see huge price increases.
Cancel the cuts, lower the costs, protect health care.

Trump’s Big Ugly Law made the largest cuts to SNAP in history. MILLIONS lose benefits. All to give tax cuts to the rich.
Today, Dems in Congress filed legislation to cancel the cuts – and I’m proud to be on the bill. NE Ohio can’t afford Trump’s greed.

There's always a new low with Trump. His latest deranged posts calling for the death of Democratic lawmakers are beyond repulsive. This is such a dangerous path. We simply cannot keep tolerating this - Trump's awful comments must be condemned.

Rural communities are so important to our country, yet they're often treated as an afterthought.
That's why @newdems.bsky.social is stepping up to fight for affordable housing and health care, keep rural hospitals open, and a stronger rural economy. We need all zip codes and counties to thrive.

New Dems are excited to unveil our Rural Revitalization Agenda!
This agenda puts a much-needed spotlight on our rural communities and pushes for policies that will rebuild and reinvest in these areas.

The Epstein Files matter because the survivors matter.
Tonight, I stood alongside women who are fighting for justice and accountability. Epstein and his enablers caused so much pain, but they are not backing down. End the coverup, release the files, deliver the truth.

[UPDATE] The Epstein Files Transparency Act has passed the House of Representatives.
We did our job in the House. Now the Senate needs to act. No games, no delays, no tricks. We need justice for survivors and truth for the people. Release. The. Files.

I’m on my way to vote YES on releasing all of the Epstein files. The American people deserve to know the truth, the survivors deserve justice, and the perpetrators need be held accountable for their crimes, no matter who they are.

Don't be fooled folks, if the White House wanted to release the full Epstein files, they could direct the DOJ to do just that. Trump is trying to save face after months of a coverup. He couldn't care less about justice, transparency, or supporting survivors.
President Trump on Sunday urged House Republicans to back a measure that would compel the Justice Department to release the Epstein files, reversing his stance after facing the prospect that the measure could receive dozens of Republican votes. Follow live: nyti.ms/44ad50z

I just spoke on the House floor to expose the truth about who Donald Trump is really working for. Spoiler alert- the answer is NOT the American people.

Republicans have made one thing clear: they do not care about your health care.
Open enrollment is in full swing, and 38,000 of my constituents will have to deal with huge price increases due to Trump's cuts.
Where is the GOP's plan to address that? Oh, I forgot they don't have one!

Yea, I’m not waiting on this supposed GOP health care plan.
The truth is Republicans have had TWO DECADES to produce a bill to lower health care costs and protect care.
They don’t have a plan because they don’t want to lower your costs. Period.

The lengths that Trump and Republicans are willing to go to in order to coverup the Epstein files is a serious red flag.
The people deserve the truth, and next week I will vote to force the White House to release the files.

I stood with the @demwomencaucus.bsky.social to declare in one voice: HANDS OFF OUR HEALTH CARE. 38,000 Ohioans in our district will lose coverage because of GOP cuts. It’s up to Congress to act to help save access to care nationwide. This fight is not over.
