If I had a nickel for every lie Trump and Bruce Blakeman peddled to Long Islanders to win their votes, I’d almost be able to pay my taxes.

Republicans are going to try to take health care away from tens of millions of Americans to give tax breaks to the wealthy and corporate interests.
In today’s Democratic Daily Download, Rep. Frank Pallone shares how Democrats are fighting back because Medicaid matters to the American people.

Let’s be clear: passing this bill will lead to the deaths of thousands of Americans. Nothing about this makes America great.
The disastrous Republican reconciliation bill would cut Medicaid & the Affordable Care Act by $715 billion – throwing 13.7 million Americans off of Medicaid & the health insurance they currently have – in order to give a $1.2 trillion tax break to the top 1%.
It must be defeated.

“Crime in Nassau is out of control, we need a citizens militia” …guys, this was an actual Ring app alert that I received last year. Let’s calm down, Bruce Blakeman.

As we celebrate #TeacherAppreciationDay and everything teachers do for our students, we won a court order forcing the Trump administration to restore over $1 billion in educational funding to states.
I'll always fight for our teachers, our students, and the resources they need.

If I had to pick my favorite Bruce Blakeman-ism, it’d probably be that he felt the need to create a citizen militia to protect Nassau County shortly after it was named the safest county in America.
