Republicans couldn’t care less about lowering costs.

As premiums soar, they’re only interested in political retribution and padding billionaires’ pockets.

You deserve better.

Donald Trump: “I don’t want to hear about the affordability.”

Republicans promised to lower your costs on Day 1.

Instead they've handed tax cuts to billionaires while leaving you with higher grocery bills — right in time for the holidays.

You deserve better.

Today, Donald Trump threatened violence against six Members of Congress.

Where’s the Republican outrage?
November 20, 2025 at 9:15 PM
This is a new low — even for Donald Trump.

His threats against patriotic members of Congress are disgraceful and disgusting.

We should not have to remind the president that there is no place for political violence. He needs to delete his posts now.

Working families aren't making it in Trump’s economy.

They're living paycheck to paycheck, while billionaires get tax cuts.

You deserve a country where you can actually afford to get by and get ahead.

Trump promised to make life better for kids and families.

Instead, he’s defunding public education to fund tax breaks for billionaires.

House Democrats have successfully forced a vote to release the Epstein files.

But even now, Republicans are trying to justify continued obstruction.

If you can't stand up for these survivors, how can anyone trust you to stand up for them?

Republicans promised to lower costs on Day 1. They lied.

Health care premiums are skyrocketing. Costs for daily goods are soaring. 
 
Now, even the holidays will be more expensive because of the GOP.

It's long past time to seek justice for Epstein's victims.

Release the files. Now.
November 17, 2025 at 6:53 PM
This week, the House will finally vote to release the Epstein files.

This is not a difficult or complicated vote.

Every Member of Congress should vote yes, and Trump should immediately sign our bill into law.

The victims and the American people deserve the full truth.

Trump went all the way to the Supreme Court to withhold food from vulnerable Americans.

Now, he’s firing a worker for laying out the facts: Republicans were using hunger as a political weapon.

Democrats are going to fight back for Ellen, and all federal workers.

During the shutdown, the GOP doubled down on their cruelty.

They went from "let them eat cake" to "let them eat nothing."
November 15, 2025 at 5:19 PM
From Day One, Republicans have done everything in their power to attack health care.

They've slashed Medicaid and Medicare, they’ve cut medical research, and they’ve hiked premiums on millions of families.

I spoke with Haley Pepper about how Democrats are continuing to fight back. Tune in below.

Republicans have tried to repeal the ACA more than 70 times.

They have defunded Medicaid and Medicare.

They have voted to hike premiums, cut medical research, and close hospitals.

They own this health care crisis.
November 14, 2025 at 2:42 PM
The GOP shutdown is over.

But Democrats' fight for your health care isn't.

We will use every tool we have to extend ACA tax credits and lower your costs.

We’re not giving up because you deserve better.

Finally.

Now, Mike Johnson needs to bring a vote to the floor to #ReleaseTheFiles.

Epstein’s victims and the American people deserve the truth.
More than seven weeks after her special election victory, Adelita Grijalva stood on the House floor and took the oath of office Wednesday, marking the end of a bitter standoff with Speaker Mike Johnson, who had refused to seat her during the record government shutdown.

When Rep. Grijalva takes her oath tonight, she will be the final signature needed to release the Epstein files.

Now, Trump is working the phones to intimidate House Republicans into backing out.

I wonder why?
November 12, 2025 at 7:28 PM
The only con job is hiking costs on working people to hand tax cuts to billionaires.
Trump on affordability: It’s a con job. Costs are way down.

How do we honor our nation's heroes this Veterans Day?

Not with speeches. Not with thank you's.

Not with cuts to their health care, their food security, and their retirement.

We honor their sacrifice by guaranteeing them the same dignity, security, and freedom they gave to us.

This week, House Republicans will vote to inflict needless pain on the American people.
 
Their budget hikes premiums and leaves millions of families without health care.

I'll be voting no.
November 10, 2025 at 10:33 PM
House Democrats will not give up the fight for affordable health care.

We will not rubber stamp Republicans' extreme premium hikes.

We will not help them fund billionaire tax cuts with your money.

We will not back down.

Not now. Not ever.
November 10, 2025 at 6:08 PM
A GOP budget that spikes health premiums to fund tax cuts for billionaires is a grave betrayal of everyday families.

That was true in July. It was true in September. And it remains true today.

House Democrats are not giving up. We’ll keep fighting for the American people.
November 10, 2025 at 2:05 AM
Americans are losing health care, going hungry, and missing paychecks.

Meanwhile, the GOP is finding every way to hand more tax cuts to billionaires.

Their cruelty just doesn’t end.
