A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

Trump spent HOURS with a victim at Jeffrey Epstein’s house and “knew about the girls,” according to released emails.
Those who suffered are owed peace. And those who are responsible for that suffering must face justice — no matter who they are.

For over 50 years, this bedrock environmental law has significantly decreased water pollution, helped preserve our waterways, and protected public health. With these long-standing protections under attack, we won’t give up on fighting for our basic right to safe, clean water. 🧵👇

Some of us are still waiting for a public option.
This moment’s health care emergency was created a generation ago. Ignoring this history now dooms us to repeat it in the future.
The Health Care Crisis Origin Story
A generation ago, Democrats helped the insurance industry shut down a rare opportunity - leading to this moment of chaos.

Unacceptable. There are 189,000 people in my district who will be paying 50–300% more for the same, and in many cases worse, healthcare.
I won’t do that to the people I represent. I’m a NO on this “deal.”

I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.
We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.
A vote for this bill is a mistake.
