Delay on floor: The Republicans hand wrote more paybacks into the 900 plus page bill and no one can figure out what they are. I mean it only adds 4 trillion plus in debt already so why not add some more by hand.

Here's the proof: Republicans are only looking out for their millionaire and billionaire friends – and they're willing to gamble with your lives to pay them off.

We've been on the Senate floor for 25 hours fighting this awful bill.
Republicans have blocked us at every step — while rewriting the bill behind closed doors to strong-arm their members into cutting health care for 17 million people to pay for billionaire tax cuts.
Shameful.

If a bill is so bad that you have to exempt entire states from its consequences to win the votes you need—just don't pass the bill!
Why do people in Washington state deserve Medicaid & SNAP cuts, but others don't?
This is plain wrong, and it's just no way to legislate.

“Is there any sign of life?”
“Have we heard a heartbeat?”
“Does she feel any kicking?”
“We don’t have the equipment to do that.”
That’s the full 911 audio from a nurse inside an ICE detention center near Denver, calling for help as a four-months-pregnant woman bled and cried out in pain.

Holding a hearing at 1:00 AM? What is it? They’re hiding? Good opportunity for us to all set our alarms and get up for a little midnight popcorn & airing of the truth.
House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it.
I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.
