The reality is that there is a point when it will be too late to make a meaningful difference on health care premiums—and so far, Republicans are saying “never” to stopping the worst of the MAGA health care hike.

I will not let people forget that the same Republicans who did everything in their power to make tax breaks for billionaires PERMANENT refused to even negotiate ONE YEAR of health care tax credits for working families.

As long as there is time left on the clock, I will keep fighting to stop the MAGA health care hike.
Because the government funding package still does not address this crisis, I will vote no.

From clothing to coffee to consoles, the Trump tariffs have made EVERYTHING more expensive.
Republicans in Congress can join us to stop these tariffs. If you want to end these taxes on Americans, make your voice heard!

It doesn't matter what the President wants to hear—we NEED to do more to make things more affordable.
He promised lower prices but has instead made everything more expensive. And now he just wants to avoid the topic altogether. Not going to happen.

Trump can shovel money at Argentina and Republicans can shovel money at billionaires, but there’s no time for working families? There are no funds for health care?
I cannot accept that.

I am giving Republicans every opportunity in the world to DO THE RIGHT THING and work with Democrats to save the health care tax credits.
But Republicans have agency. I can’t force them to save health care for their own constituents.

I've been raising the alarm about the expiring tax credits for nearly 2 YEARS. Republicans have had all the time in the world to fix their MAGA health care hike.
There is no later anymore. Republicans already pushed us over the ACA tax credit cliff. The time to fix this is NOW.

President Trump is blocking 1.2 million veterans from getting the SNAP benefits they need so they don’t go hungry.
It's disgraceful—and we all need to speak out to make this administration get out the SNAP benefits people need and rely on.

I have never seen an American President so desperate to force children and seniors to go hungry.
Donald Trump is appealing a federal court's order requiring him to pay the full SNAP benefits for this month.
This is as ugly and cruel as it gets.

My nana hat won't let me say what I'm really thinking, but here's what you miserable crooks need to hear:
Get serious. Negotiate with Democrats. Reopen the government. Pay federal workers. Save health care.

Federal workers—including furloughed workers—are entitled to backpay after the shutdown ends. That is the LAW.
Trump and his administration of crooks saying anything otherwise are LYING to try and scare and intimidate federal workers.

Today marks the longest government shutdown in history.
Republicans need to understand EVERYONE is being hurt because of the shutdown they've caused.
And we need to work together to lower health care costs for ALL Americans NOW!

We all need to keep up the pressure and demand that Trump follows the law and gets SNAP benefits to the millions of families and kids that are counting on them to put food on the table.

Grocery bills are rising and premiums are doubling as Trump gilds his office in gold and bulldozes the East Wing for a fancy ballroom—and Republican lawmakers are doing NOTHING.

4 out of 5 people who rely on the ACA tax credits live in states that Trump won.
And over 80 percent of the people who will end up uninsured if these expire are in Trump states!
This is a MAGA health care hike, yet Trump won't lift a finger to save your health care.

Trump is throwing a blow-out Gatsby party down in Mar-a-Lago & pardoning people who helped terrorists launder money—all while REFUSING to work on reopening the government and actively CHOOSING to break the law and ignore the courts to force 42 million Americans to go hungry.

The President who threw a Gatsby-themed party the night before he cut off SNAP benefits is now vowing to break a court order so that he can force millions of children, seniors, and veterans to go hungry.
It's sickening. I won't stand for it. Time to speak up and push back.

🚨UPDATE ON SNAP: Millions of Americans are getting their benefits LATE and only partial benefits.
TWO federal judges made it clear that SNAP should be funded and forced Trump to make a partial payment using an emergency fund, but we need him to pay the FULL benefits.

Much higher health care premiums are all part of the MAGA health care hike–not just because Republicans are causing it, but because these skyrocketing price increases are hitting MAGA states harder than anyone.

Dr. Oz claimed that families’ health care premiums will only go up $13 a month. Who is he trying to fool?
Open enrollment is here, and millions of families can see the truth for themselves: costs are going up by a LOT more than $13.
