@booker.senate.gov + 15 other Dems voted for Trmp's election denier nom as ambassador to China. If we are truly in a Constitutional crisis w/ the pres attempting to install a dictatorship, why is ANY Dem going on record as supporting anything Trmp wants? Where is our unified party of NO?

DOGE initially promised to save taxpayers $2 trillion. Now it admits it's only delivered $160B in cuts. And even those minimal savings are nearly wiped out by the cost of implementing DOGE's cuts: $135B. We're losing vital government services for basically nothing in return.

We have never suffered from scarcity in America. We suffer from greed. And because of that greed, more and more people are not taking their medication, losing their health care, and dying. It’s enough. We need Medicare for All.

Public broadcasters like PBS and NPR give every American access to culture, history, art, and trusted journalism. They’re a cornerstone of civic life. Defunding them does a disservice to us all, especially in rural communities. We must defend them.

CDC reports 216 child deaths this flu season, the most in 15 years. Experts say the decline in vaccinations is certainly playing a role in this season's loss of life. More US children have died this flu season than at any time since the 2010 swine flu pandemic👇

House Republicans created a disaster for D.C. with the CR — restricting the District's ability to use its OWN money to fund its OWN schools, public safety and more. My bill with Senator Collins to fix this passed unanimously in the Senate. House Republicans need to pass it NOW.

The Republicans aren’t listening to anybody but Trump. They know how detrimental these cuts will be to their constituents but instead of developing a backbone, standing up to Trump, & doing what’s right—they’re too scared, too spineless, & too sold out to fight for the folks they represent.

We have to keep the pressure up – make your voice heard. The GOP is laying the groundwork to cut essential services like Medicaid and SNAP to make pay for a HUGE tax cut for the ultra-wealthy. Show up & let your representatives know what you think about that.
