Russ Vought calling the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office wrong is like failing the test and blaming the calculator.

The numbers don’t lie — he just doesn’t like them. The Republican Budget Bill will increase the deficit by trillions.

Republicans are hiking costs, tanking the economy, and waging a trade war on working people.

And it’s constituents like Ross who are paying the price.

I led a group of House Democrats to demand answers from the Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon, on her illegal efforts to undermine public education. Only Congress can shut down Department — not Trump or McMahon. We will keep speaking out and fighting for students.

Trump put in place the largest tax increase on the American people yesterday. Meanwhile, House Republicans ran out of DC early so they won't have to defend Trump's tax hike.

On today's Democratic Daily Download, @repdelbene.bsky.social explains what this means for families, businesses and farmers.

I realize this is a race to the bottom, but if Trump can have a third term, so can Obama, right?

Welcome to the Democratic Daily Download. 

Every day, you will hear from @housedemocrats.bsky.social on how we’re fighting back against Trump and the GOP — as they rip off working families to give massive tax breaks to their billionaire donors. 

Today's update: our Day of Action to Save Medicaid.

This ruling validates what we have maintained from the beginning: the Administration's attempt to gut our federal workforce was unlawful and executed without proper legal authority.

🚨BREAKING: VA slashes 1000 jobs of disabled veterans, military spouses & medical researchers in massive cuts. $98M in claimed "savings" = longer wait times & reduced care for veterans. This isn't reform - it's a reckless abandonment of those who served.
