Trump’s big, ugly bill in action:. An $80,000 tax cut for ONE millionaire is paid for by stripping health care from FOUR Americans.

Trump is destroying Social Security - and the massive debt in his big ugly tax giveaway bill will jeopardize the program for years to come. Trump's friends get rich, we get screwed.

The agency, which serves 73 million beneficiaries, has struggled to improve customer service amid cutbacks, long wait times and a crashing website.

I was honored to join @GCRTA to break ground on the E. 79th Street Station Reconstruction - made possible by the Bipartisan Infrastrutcure Law. This project will make the station safer, more accessible, and warmer in the winter. Another important investment in Cleveland.

A new proposal from @CMSgov under @DrOz wants to add catheters, ostomy & trach supplies to Medicare’s competitive bidding program. This is a bad idea and will worsen outcomes for seniors & Medicare recipients. My latest in @MedPageToday explains why ⬇️

Limiting urological, tracheostomy, and ostomy supply options will do more harm than good

Trump's funding freeze is harming people in need in Northeast Ohio. Republicans shouldn't say one word about "fiscal responsibility" when they just voted for Trump's budget that increases our debt by $3 trillion dollars.

Republicans voted to kick 17 million Americans off their health care. Republicans voted to strip SNAP from 5 million Americans. Republicans voted to raise energy costs on every American. Republicans voted to add $4 trillion to the debt. We won’t let them forget it in 2026.

That’s our Leader! @hakeemjeffries, you made us proud. PRESS ON!.
Jeffries ends his nearly 9 hour speech by quoting MLK and saying, "We're gonna press on until victory is won. I yield back.". "John would've been proud," Terri Sewell tells him.

Excited? About what?. This bill doesn’t make one positive change to Medicaid. No expansion of benefits. Not one cent invested back into the program. Just the single biggest cut to health care in history.
BLITZER: The CBO projects 12 million more people will be uninsured because of this legislation. Did the president mislead the American public about not cutting Medicaid?. McCLAIN: I don't think so. If you're one of the most vulnerable and need Medicaid, you should be extremely

Things that never happened for $1000. Even if true? Weird flex. “This bill is bad. But Leader Jeffries pointed out how bad it is, so I’ll vote for it.”

Republicans are on the verge of passing this nightmare of a bill. All 212 House Dems are going to vote NO. If we can get 4 Republicans to join us, we can take down this bill.

This bill is beyond cruel. And my republican colleagues know it. That’s why they delayed Medicaid and SNAP cuts until AFTER the midterms.

I can’t even…. Cutting MEDICAID BY $1 TRILLION to pay for tax cuts is the whole point of HIS BILL.
New: During a meeting with Mods in the WH, Trump told members that if they want to win elections, they shouldn’t touch: Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security. “But we’re touching Medicaid in this bill,” one member responded to Trump, per 3 sources.

Headed back to the floor. If all these so-called fiscal conservatives end up caving, we can never let them forget that they voted to add $4 trillion to the debt.

Republicans are about to light the social safety net on fire to keep the country club warm. What an absolute disgrace.
