House Republicans were on paid vacation for two months and couldn’t be bothered to come up with a real plan to stop costs from skyrocketing for 24 million Americans. Speaker Johnson won’t even hold a vote.

Hard to escape the conclusion that they don’t care.

Shitler’s entire address was ALL lies and projection. If this was a Dem president articles of impeachment would’ve been drawn up before the end. Republicans are cowards and are destroying our country by keeping him in office. History will treat Johnson & Thune like Himmler & Keitel.

Today four Repubs have signed onto a Democratic-led petition that will force a House vote on extending subsidies for 3 years. With their votes, it will pass. The vote should happen in January.

On Monday, ICE agents violently restrained a woman in Minneapolis, dragging her in the snow and pinning her face down as onlookers shouted the woman was pregnant.

In response, one agent fired a taser into the crowd. “Who wants more?” he taunted, according to a WCCO reporter. trib.al/vdWc3qj

McGovern: "When billionaire CEOs need something, Republicans move at lightning speed. But when it comes to working people needing affordable health care, suddenly the story changes. There's hand wringing and the money is gone. My friends, if you are ok with that, we do not share the same values."

🚨More chaos in the Republican-led House...

Our discharge petition has the signatures to force the ACA extension to the floor. Speaker Johnson doesn't want to do it.

The good news: Republicans are feeling the pressure. If you have a friend or relative in a red district, tell them to call their Rep!

Speaker Johnson – no more delays. Listen to the people.

Let the House vote TODAY.

Millions are depending on us to cancel the cuts and lower the cost of health care.

218 members signed the discharge petition to force a vote to extend ACA tax credits.

If Speaker Johnson refuses to bring forth the vote, he’s telling the American people loud and clear that rising health care costs are acceptable to him.

Fascist House Republicans have now passed a bill that subjects immigrant children to invasive bodily searches as well as being able to hold them in detention instead of releasing them to their families.

Child abuse, cruelty, fascism in every way. Party of Pedos strikes again.
