Today, I spoke with dedicated former federal workers about how the Trump Administration's horrific workforce cuts cost them the jobs they loved, and how that's hurt their families. I’ll keep working to protect the federal workforce, fight illegal firings, and end the shutdown.

Trump and the GOP developed a budget plan with no Dem input. Dems offered an alternative that protects folks’ health care. Trump said he’d meet to negotiate, but then canceled the meeting. Why does he want to shut the government down AND take health care away from millions?
