Sen. Tillis: "We owe it to the states to do the work to understand how these proposals affect them … How hard is it to sit down and ask the Medicaid office?" "If there's no negative impact, what's wrong with daylight? What's wrong with actually understanding what this bill does."

Our intelligence confirms this - we have intercepts of high level Iranian officials who are surprised that damage at the nuclear facilities wasn’t worse. Trump is going to refuse to admit the truth, which increases the chances that Iran is able to reconstitute their program.

The budget bill contains tens of billions to fund an army of 10,000 more ICE agents. This is a red alert moment for our democracy.

Heads up -- another new ICE tactic. They are going door-to-door, claiming to be doing a "police" welfare check. This man was smart, and this is how to stop them. Stay vigilant.

Every Medicaid cut erases a person: The name on the clinic sign-in sheet... The kid on oxygen... The mom waiting on approval for chemo... They want us to believe it’s just numbers. But it’s people. And we see them. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Thom Tillis announced he isn’t running for reelection. Here’s to him convincing some of his more human-like GOP colleagues to voting against the monstrous Big Bad Bill.

More fake ICE agents doing horrible things. Everyone should be speaking up about this. Masks and no ID required is a ridiculous recipe for horrors. @MarshaBlackburn & @SenJohnson & Sexton should be banning it, not protecting it.

Just a reminder of who Thom Tillis is: In 2013, as N.C. House Speaker, he passed a massive voter suppression law that was struck down because it targeted Black voters "with almost surgical precision.” In the Senate he voted against the Freedom to Vote Act and the John R. Lewis Voting Right Act.

Every time Collins and Murkowski furrow their brows and ‘express concern,’ a lobbyist gets their wings. They won’t do the right thing. They never do.

DO NOT GIVE UP!!! Especially if you live in Maine or even Alaska, continue to pound on Collins & Murkowski’s phones. Murkowski knows she sold out. The CBO score is horrible, there’s a chance she could flip back.

A backdoor deal with Lisa Murkowski to screw over Alaska less than the rest of Americans may have sunk the budget bill. Anyone who calls Republicans the party of fiscal conservatives has lost their minds. www.politico.com/news/2025/06... #BigBeautifulBill #conservative #Ohio #ProudBlue #DemVoice1
