The only thing I want to hear from elected officials or candidates is that, the moment they possess the power to do so, they will hold Trump and his accomplices responsible for their rampant lawlessness. It's a litmus test I will 100% apply regardless of who it is. This is a pass-fail test.

Word is that MAGA Mike Johnson is bringing the budget bill for a vote today (4/9). It cuts $880 billion from Medicaid to give tax breaks to billionaires.
WATCH this! Then tell the Republicans in Congress that when they're burning down this house, there's people still inside.

@schiff.senate.gov explains why the Rs would own the gov shut down & why the CR is bad for us-it would give trump 6 months to continue to cut off funding, close SS offices, and waive the ability of Congress to stop the tariffs, etc. Ds want a 1 month CR & negotiate funding that works for all of us.
Is the Government Shutting Down?

Don’t let Trump’s & Musk’s constant efforts to distract us keep you from focusing on the real issues, like the SAVE act, which will take the right to vote away from millions of American citizens. The voting rights of women are especially at risk if this bill passes.
