We can't afford to extend the ACA health insurance credits.
We can't afford to give weapons to Ukraine.
However, we CAN afford to donate $40 Billion to bail out Trump's pal in Argentina🤷♀️

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.
They make sure we have clean water.
They protect us from financial fraud.
They provide healthcare to our communities.
They make our government actually work for people.
Do not forget this.

Here is a story where #SecCookieMonster defends $5 billion in cuts to the Department of Interior.
The political masochism is overwhelming. He seems to take pleasure in fighting to harm his own workforce.
How can he continue to visit parks, refuges, and DOI offices while tearing us apart?

We’ve talked about this before, but we wanted to expand on it a little more. Late last week, Elon Musk’s so-called “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) effectively took control of the Department of the Interior without a single Senate confirmation, public hearing, or vote.

Musk is rapidly pushing forward the privatization of space and satellite operations that have long been managed by the NOAA. DOGE has acquired confidential data from NOAA’s competitors—an alarming development that has further cemented SpaceX’s dominance in the space and satellite industry.

This means Trump/Musk could legally cancel funding for any program for any reason.
This is unacceptable.
A shutdown is bad. This bill is worse.

We have to talk about the absolutely insane CR the GOP has proposed.
This bill formally abdicates Congressional authority over the budget and allows the Executive to sequester funds for any reason or no reason at all.
