But it was so expensive, Republicans set many of their tax cuts to end after 2025.
Now, Republicans want to steal from working people to pay for more tax cuts for billionaires.

In plain English: Republicans in Congress plot more severe budget cuts to health care, nursing homes, and school lunches to pay for tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk.
It sounds absurd, but it’s true.

Let me get this straight: RFK Jr.’s idea of fixing his ethics issues is to hand his stake over to his son? The son who works at the same law firm that RFK Jr. made millions off of?
RFK Jr.'s nomination should not move forward one inch until we get answers.

It’s alarming that Elon Musk has access to government payment systems used to deliver Social Security and Medicare benefits.
He also drove out the senior career official at Treasury responsible for preventing a potential default on U.S. debt.
Congress must investigate.

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.
We hammered this time and time again and yet.

Trump’s tariffs are a tax increase for Minnesota families, plain and simple.
While Trump raises prices, I’m proposing the first sales tax rate cut in our state’s history to help Minnesotans weather the storm.
