The Republican Big Ugly Bill rips health care from 14 million people and leaves millions more hungry—all to fund tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk. It will also pile on trillions in reckless debt. All we need is four Republicans to stop this. politico.com/news/2025/05/1…

Ranking Member Rep. Rick Larsen explains how the GOP’s Big Ugly Bill will slow infrastructure investments, strip Americans of healthcare and leave millions of kids hungry at school.

House Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill rips food assistance from hungry kids, guts Medicaid, and leaves veterans without vital resources—all to hand billionaires a $5 trillion tax break.  Working families, seniors, and vets will pay the price if we don’t fight back.

Cutting Medicaid and Medicare neither makes Americans healthy nor American great - because health is the prerequisite for social and economic stability.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

41% of babies’ births are covered by Medicaid. 49% of children are covered by Medicaid or CHIP. 62% of long-term care residents in nursing homes are covered by Medicaid. 35% of people with disabilities are covered by Medicaid. HANDS OFF MEDICAID.

Yes, the person who makes the fries at McDonald’s should be able to pay for housing, groceries, and other bills with their paycheck alone.

This is getting lost in the conversation: Medicaid cuts aren’t just bad for folks who rely on it. They’re bad for everyone. Hospitals will close & health insurance premiums will go up across the board.

It’s time to talk about the House moving to impeach RFK Jr. His unilateral actions to restrict COVID vaccine access and also cancel the contract with Moderna for mRNA flu vaccines places the health of this country in jeopardy. He’s unfit to be HHS Sec. statnews.com/2025/05/28/mod…

Trump declared a fake “emergency” to sidestep Congress on tariffs. He lost in court, but it’s crucial that Congress reclaim its powers. The casual use of emergency declarations by successive presidents violates the Constitution, undermines representation, and threatens liberty.

This is incredibly dangerous --- Trump is infusing his own megalomania with delusional divine sanction. Christians should find this borderline blasphemous. Instead, all too many agree . . . and cheer.

It shouldn’t be this hard to start and support a family. People should make living wages, be able to buy homes, and retire at a reasonable age. Instead, our system has sunk working class people into student and medical debt while paying high rents and making low wages.

If residents can’t make police reports of crimes committed against them without fear of deportation- then it will be open season on immigrants. Sanctuary policies that allow interaction with law enforcement without fear of deportation make the whole community safer

Job Corp is community building, helps many transitioning from foster care, from juvenile court, those unable/or not qualified for college. JC assistes w/ GEDs, learning skilled trades. It is a homelessness and crime prevention program. So much for supporting working class jobs 😞

It's important to call these actions what they are: evil. One estimate says Elon Musk's cuts to USAID "have already resulted in 300,000 deaths." The world's richest man has made the poor suffer even more. nytimes.com/2025/05/30/opi…

SecState Rubio claims that no on has died because of USAID cuts and suggested that I had lied in my reporting. So here I show him photos of specific children who have died because of the Trump administration's reckless cancelation of aid: nytimes.com/2025/05/31/opi…
