Here in Spain, presently in Madrid. I just ate at the world’s oldest restaurant in continuous operation, @CasaBotin celebrating 300 yrs this year! One of Hemingway’s favorite spots! ¡El cerdo está magnífico!

Congresswoman, you represent ppl who trust your judgment - you’re purposely lying to them! $350B wont extend the Obamacare subsidies even THREE Years. 2025 alone cost $138B. Please resign your station and get as far away from govt as you can. You’re an embarrassment to Seattle!
The Big Bad Betrayal Bill will cost $3.4 TRILLION over the next ten years. Extending ACA tax credits would cost $350 billion over ten years — a fraction of the cost. Republicans would rather give tax breaks to billionaires than make health care affordable for American families.

States w/ highest fuel costs have highest grocery prices. Transpo relies on diesel & gas, which adds 3%-10% of total grocery cost. Beyond any tariff issues, fuel & road taxes are within the state’s control & CA, OR, WA etc are all affected by their nutter Govs in this respect. 🤡

No Robert, just like Medicare & Medicaid, it would add an ever increasing amount of Federal debt which taxpayers are responsible for. It would cost an additional $3.3T annually. The @mercatus researched the proposed M4A policy extensively and found it is extremely malfeasant!
Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

This is what broke the dam, Senator. Your party, your leader destroyed confidence in our world leading med system in 15 short yrs. It’s time that you all own it and we implement minimally invasive oversight of Direct Care med. Calls for M4A is even worse!
Our health care system is broken. Millions more are about to be uninsured. This should outrage and activate us to fight for change.

Tony, if you’re right, why have @WhipKClark, @SenSchumer & others stated that Dems used the shutdown to maintain leverage (to get benefits for illegals)?
Between Republicans jeopardizing access to food and healthcare and President Trump’s chaotic trade wars, families are already struggling to make ends meet. It's time to get serious, folks.

You were saying? @WhipKClark says Dems have the leverage and are using it… https://t.co/EnzWRpIQCH
The Republican shutdown showed us two things: ✅ Republicans want to make you pay MORE in health care costs ✅ Trump will let millions of Americans starve just to get his way

Katherine, you’re correct, the internet never forgets your cruelty…h/t @bafornols
During the shutdown, the GOP doubled down on their cruelty. They went from "let them eat cake" to "let them eat nothing."

Except when they don’t. This is yet another straw man that Dems created to fight a problem that doesn’t exist. The problem you need to solve is your love fest w/ insurance executives who you empowered to rob Americans blind over their health. Poor policy is more govt not less!
I encourage anyone who opposes increasing the national minimum wage to try surviving on $7.25 an hour.

What did taxpayers do to wrong you that protecting their interests are secondary to the people whom you are expecting that they support? Their efforts are what fund the program. Wasting their tax $ money bankrupt the program. As a lawyer, make the argument that this isn’t dumb!
This is completely unacceptable. After holding SNAP benefits hostage, the Trump administration is trying to make it even harder for people to receive the support they need to feed their families. This is wrong.

Just wait Seattle, Wilson will lead the charge to put the kibosh on s/t rentals, followed w/ implementing a CA, NY style of regressive rent control that will kill the private rental market. This type off socialist capital destruction will further send Seattle into economic ruin!

Remember, @SpeakerPelosi championed this ill-conceived legislation. Your party’s 2010 ‘fight for health care’ broke the system, coerced us to purchase unisex policies at astronomical prices, so now you own the fallout 15 yrs later. h/t @Lancegooden
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.
