@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov DO NOT CAVE ON THE SHUTDOWN. You cannot re-open for anything less than full extension of the ACA subsidies. The promise of a vote is NOT GOOD ENOUGH. You have momentum on your side and Tuesday's election results show we want FIGHTERS. SO FIGHT.

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.”
The result was “institutionalized hunger.”

4. Earlier this year, Johnson swore in two GOP special election winners while the House was out of session. Johnson held a pro forma session for the swearing-in ceremony within 24 hours.
Since Grijalva’s election, the House has held 13 pro forma sessions, but Johnson would not swear her in.

“to distinguish real (ICE) operations from fakes”.
Hmmm, maybe ban masks, display badges, use warrants, and employ due process rather than abduct people into unmarked cars.
It’s easy for criminals to impersonate ICE since ICE act like criminals.

Last night was a thumping from coast to coast. Across the country, voters rejected chaos and cynicism – and chose leaders who are focused on the cost of everyday life.

The magistrate judge scolded them for an "indict first, investigate second" posture and ordered them to turn over reams of material — including all grand jury info — to Comey's team
