Today, I stood with Nancy & Erica in Milwaukee to make clear the fight for lower health care costs isn’t over.

They are two of the 275,000 Wisconsinites who rely on health care tax breaks and are scrambling to figure out how to afford care next year if Republicans refuse to act.

Republican politicians' budget bill, the Big Ugly Law, gives tax breaks to private jet owners.

Yes, it makes private jets fully tax-deductible.

It’s clear who Republican politicians are working for… and it ain’t you.
