Representative Jim McGovern
@repmcgovern.bsky.social
Lisa's husband. Patrick and Molly's dad. Proud to serve the 2nd Congressional District of MA. Co-Chair of the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission. Top Democrat on the House Rules Committee. Hunger is a political condition.
During my visit to the Central Massachusetts Veterans Support Inc. food pantry, Anne Marie told me they’re seeing a “drastic increase” among veterans and active-duty service members.

Some in Washington are cutting nutrition assistance & leaving our veterans behind. It’s shameful.

There’s a special place in Hell for people who rip food away from hungry children.

Republicans give every tax break & giveaway they can think of to greedy billionaires and then tell Americans we have to pick between food & healthcare. It’s a false choice and I reject it.

Trump is a lousy president & a lousy human being. Republicans in Congress know this—but they’ve all fallen in line. It’s outrageous & pathetic.

Trump can find $40 billion to bail out Argentina, but can’t find it in his heart to help millions of hungry Americans.

I spoke with @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com about how Republicans are illegally cancelling nutrition assistance & using hungry families as sick political leverage.

Republicans talk about their “clean” continuing resolution… It was “clean” before Trump ignored the law and obliterated programs that Congress authorized & appropriated money for. That’s what would “continue” under their CR.

Trump’s tariffs are putting Argentina FIRST & American farmers LAST.
