Too many at home face food insecurity, including our college students. I delivered over $740k for new refrigerated food lockers for @goodrootsnw. Everyone deserves access to fresh, healthy food. #DeliverfortheSouthSound

GoodRoots Northwest installed the lockers at the start of the year. Bates is now the first college campus on the West Coast to have climate-controlled food lockers.

I sat down with the kids from @tacomaschools' Jobs 253 program. Students should leave high school with the skills they need. It's good to see a program that I started as Mayor still thriving. Watch:

Last week, we saw the @HouseGOP bend the knee. Again. They sacrificed our healthcare, our food access, our social services. They sacrificed Americans for Trump.
As Congress gets closer to approving Trump's budget bill, @RepStricklandWA says, "What you see happening overall through this bill is that they’re basically trying to decimate our social safety net.".

#IndependenceDay is the original #NoKings day - but here we are. We must continue working to make our country a place where life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are not just ideals, but are realities for every American.

.@RepJeffries and @HouseDemocrats will always put the American people over politics – even if it means speaking for hours on the house floor. Now is the time for the @HouseGOP to find some morals, grow a spine, and finally vote NO on this ugly bill.

.@RepJeffries just broke the record for the longest floor speech in the House. @HouseGOP, take notes. @HouseDemocrats are united – this is how you fight for the American people.
Just took to the House Floor to speak in support of a country where everyone can afford to live the good life. And in strong opposition to Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill that is devastating to everyday Americans. We will not be silenced.

While the @HouseGOP is in a tizzy bending the knee to Trump while lying and stealing, @HouseDemocrats stand with the American people. #HellNo #HandsOffMedicaid.
Speaker Johnson: “If Hakeem would stop talking, we'll get the job done for the American people. It takes a lot longer to build a lie than to tell the truth. So he's really spinning a long tale in there.”

Washington State stands to lose more healthcare access than any other state - all because of this GOP scam bill. The cowardly @HouseGOP is to blame. Apple Health should never be on the chopping block. READ:

Red state residents, and rural hospitals will be hurt most by this big ugly bill that strips away healthcare from millions of Americans. Where is your spine @housegop?.
Jeffries: You’re ripping health care away from millions of Americans, Mr. Speaker. Ripping food away from children and veterans and seniors. Raising the cost of utilities, of paying your energy bill. By hundreds of dollars, stripping away millions of jobs all across America and

The @HouseGOP are not serious people. Only cruel.
Our $450,000,000 Alligator Alcatraz in Florida Everglades is already flooding. Wonder what’s going to happen in a hurricane. Don’t worry! 17,000,000 are set to lose their health care to help pay for it. We are not a serious country.

It’s not clicking to Republicans that Americans just want safety, security, and a fair shot at a good life.
🔥BREAKING: Every single House Democrat just stood united on the Capitol steps. JEFFRIES: “That is why EVERY. SINGLE. Democrat will vote HELL NO on this one big ugly bill.”. The party that defends your healthcare, your food, your future - just made their stand. And it’s badass.
