The idea that allowing what’s been happening the last two months to continue is a way to avoid “blame” is madness

The CR passed in the House will provide a blank check for Trump and Musk to continue their savage war against working families, the elderly, children, the sick and the poor in order to lay the groundwork for massive tax breaks for billionaires.

This is a bill I cannot support.

Trump's proposed "unfair" tariffs on the EU claim to address economic exploitation but only escalate investor anxiety and market instability. His rejection of the U.S. Chips Act highlights a troubling prioritization of aggressive tariffs over vital industry support. /1

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
