I met with Central FL seniors to talk about what the Republican government shutdown and health care crisis means for them.
The reality? Premiums are skyrocketing for over 100K Floridians. Republicans need to end this shutdown and I'll keep fighting to protect your care.

The Trump Admin is using this shutdown to illegally fire federal workers and instead of allowing us to come back and vote on reopening the government, House Republicans are extending their vacation another week.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

At least 15 government oversight websites went down — and with them, access to watchdog reports and required hotline and whistleblower links. It’s a deliberate move by the White House.

When you see how excited Trump, Russ Vought, and Republicans are about the government shutdown, it becomes pretty obvious the reason why they refused to negotiate a compromise with Democrats is because they wanted this and they completely own this, regardless of their lies.
