I’m hearing all the time from federal workers, nonprofits, LGBTQIA+ Americans, immigrant families, and others in our community who have been targeted and harmed by the president’s actions. I wrote this letter about our path forward.

Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg have built a nationwide pro-democracy movement with their huge and nimble group Indivisible, which led the No Kings Day protests across America. Today, we honor our Fourth of July Local Heroes straight from #MD08

Tom Paine: in monarchies the king is the law, but in the free societies the law is king. Wishing everyone an exuberant and free Fourth of July. Together we fight for a more perfect union.

Even Republicans in Congress are pointing out Trump doesn't seem to realize the bill slashes hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicaid which he says is a taboo. Why are they doing this? No one can say.

Leader Jeffries has been speaking on the House floor for more than seven hours, railing against the GOP’s tax scheme. He’s holding the floor for the American people, and we stand with him.

Mr. President, you love playing the schoolyard bully but, at age 79, it’s time to cut it out. It’s one thing to steal one kid’s lunch money, but your bill STEALS LUNCH MONEY FROM MILLIONS OF KIDS. Now, that’s real ugly.

MAGA’s job-killing, debt-explosion bill is on the House floor. We’re fighting to stop the GOP from throwing 17 million Americans off their health coverage and SNAP, staples of our democracy and lifelines for our people.

Millions of Americans know the pain and hardship of getting a cancer diagnosis. That’s a misfortune, a terrible misfortune. Voting for a tax scheme designed to rip health care from millions of Americans struggling to make ends meet? That’s not a misfortune, that’s an injustice.

The GOP’s tax scheme strips health care coverage from millions of Americans, including at least 245,000 Marylanders. I’m voting ‘hell no.’.

Rep. Self—Thank you for recognizing the moral and fiscal bankruptcy embodied in this monstrous bill. Please declare your opposition to it so we can secure its defeat and start over again.

The Senate’s version of the BBB is morally and fiscally bankrupt. We must get back closer to the House-passed version.

House Democrats have been 100% united in standing up for all Americans and saying no to the GOP's job-killing, health care-destroying, debt-exploding tax bill.

The GOP's Medicaid-busting tax scheme is filled with poison pills antithetical to the values of our people. So I wrote a proper preamble for their big, ugly bill.

Democracies use government as an instrument for the common good. Using a tax bill to destroy and deny health care for 17 million of our people is a sign of authoritarianism.

MAGA's sinister strategy to pass their appalling, Medicaid-stripping, job-killing, debt-exploding tax bill: tuck massive health care cuts in Medicaid, Medicare and the ACA in a thousand pages and hope no one has time to read it before the vote.

17 million Americans will lose their health care coverage if the GOP’s tax scheme is signed into law. Why would anyone vote for this poison?.

The MAGA tax bill will throw at least 17 million Americans off their health care, add $3.3 trillion to the debt and, as former Trump pal Elon Musk says, “destroy millions of jobs in America and cause immense strategic harm to our country!”.

Trump’s tactics of disappearing people in America should terrify everyone who still cherishes democracy and freedom. We reject this growing authoritarian assault.
