Secretary Kristi Noem: “We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate this city from the Socialist and the burdensome leadership that this Governor and that this mayor have placed on this country, and what they have tried to insert into this city.”

Trump found millions of dollars to build a ballroom for himself and billionaire corporate donors.
But he can’t find the funds to lower health care costs for 15 million Americans who'll otherwise lose health insurance.

Trump’s EPA is fine making our drinking water dirtier — exactly what the big polluters want. We must prioritize community health and safety. The EPA must reverse course.

Millions of Americans are about to see their health insurance costs increase by thousands a year, and many will lose coverage altogether because Republicans in Congress refused to fully fund the ACA.
RIers are already seeing the impact. Here are some of their stories:

Trump ran on ending forever wars. So why is he putting U.S. servicemembers at risk with dangerous escalation in Venezuela?

We tried to show them after the last surrender. There's no sense in trying to convince them anymore. Primaries are the only path to a fighting opposition party now.

The American people cannot pay their premiums with promises.
The Republicans have had TEN MONTHS to extend the insurance tax credits that tens of millions rely on. They’ve done nothing. Why would this time be any different?
It’s either in the bill or it isn’t getting my vote.

BREAKING: Senators reach a tentative deal to end the government shutdown which, if passed, will take days to reach Trump’s desk to become law.
Senators reach tentative deal to end the government shutdown
The deal, negotiated by a group of Democrats and GOP leaders, funds the government through Jan. 30. If it passes, it will still need to clear the House, which will likely take days.

This bill doesn’t address the core issue that millions of Americans will no longer be able to afford ACA insurance coverage next year. I’m willing to work with anyone to create a path forward but this isn’t it.

Republicans caused the longest shutdown ever to avoid giving people affordable healthcare.
And then Trump literally sued for the right to starve Americans.
This is not the time to cave. It’s a time to fight back.

Bullies gain power when their misconduct succeeds in causing righteous people to yield in the face of wrongdoing. That’s why voting for Trump's continuing resolution - without any protection against his health care cuts or his growing illegality - is a mistake.

Trump and R’s have more than doubled Americans’ health care premiums, and for 40 days they have refused to lift a finger to do a thing about it. In fact, they’ve made it worse by taking food from kids.

Americans can’t afford food and they can’t afford health care. We are in a cost-of-living crisis of Republicans’ making and we must address it now – not at a later, undisclosed date. Any deal that doesn’t address the cost of health care doesn’t work for the American people. We have to keep fighting.

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.
