If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.
We will hold this administration accountable.

This is gaslighting at its finest. A whole lot of words to justify more pain & sickness for the poor to make the rich richer. Don't be fooled. They’re taking healthcare away from those struggling to pay for tax cuts for the rich.
Their words sound great, but they're wrong & purposely misleading.🧵
