Make no mistake, removing the CDC recommendations for COVID-19 vaccines for kids and pregnant women is going to kill people, and it will disproportionately affect people who cannot afford to pay for vaccines out of pocket. Do not forget that this decision was made without a confirmed CDC Director.

A new analysis estimates the Trump/GOP budget's rollback of clean energy tax credits will eliminate nearly 830,000 jobs by 2030 and raise energy prices by 50% by 2035. Just another way the "big beautiful bill" will make the economy worse and your life more expensive.

I’ll say it again - when any politician uses the ‘I haven’t read that story’ lie about something they knew they would get asked about, the interviewer has a duty to say ‘Okay, in that case I’m going to terminate this interview and you can come back when you’re better prepared.”
