This bill will balloon our deficits and add trillions in new debt over the next 10 years, leading to higher interest rates and making things Americans buy every day more expensive.

Instead of making our tax system fairer, this bill raises taxes on the poorest 20 percent of Americans.
The parts of the bill that provide tax cuts to the wealthiest are permanent, while the parts that provide small tax cuts to middle class families expire at the end of 2028.
This bill would eliminate energy jobs, manufacturing investments, and tax credits that consumers can take advantage of when investing in home upgrades or buying a car. It would increase energy prices and further devastate our ability to address the climate crisis.
The bill would also slash federal funding for SNAP, America’s most successful food assistance program, by 30%, putting food for millions of children at risk. It would make it much harder for families already struggling with higher grocery prices to put food on the table.
This bill would enact the biggest cuts to Medicaid ever, threatening health care coverage for millions of Americans.
Millions more would see their health care costs rise and rural hospitals across the country could be forced to close their doors.
After forcing a rushed vote through, House Republicans passed the largest ever transfer of wealth from working Americans to the rich in a single law.
This disastrous bill now goes to the Senate, and my colleagues and I will keep fighting it in every way we can.
Here’s why:
Memorial Day honors the servicemembers who lost their lives fighting for our country.
They gave everything so we could live in a democracy, and we owe it to them to protect that democracy from those who are taking advantage of it.
If you’re investing in home upgrades or buying a car, you’re eligible for tax credits to help you cover the costs. But Republicans want to take these benefits away so they can give more tax cuts to the rich.

Gerry Connolly was like no other. He was a brilliant friend and colleague.
His legacy endures, and I’m proud to have known him.
The federal minimum wage has been stuck at $7.25 since 2007.
Americans are barely getting by, yet Republicans keep pushing tax breaks for billionaires instead of trying to raise wages to help those living paycheck to paycheck.
Medicaid expansion helped increase access to mental health and substance use disorder treatment.
Access to treatment saves lives, taking it away harms them – and that's the truth.

“Despite their claims of having become a working-class party, Republicans are seeking to take away health insurance from millions of Americans, and they are doing it to give billions of dollars in tax cuts to the wealthy.”

After House Republicans voted to cut taxes on the wealthy, the President is back to threatening arbitrary tax hikes on American consumers.
His incoherent and childish approach to trade will soon have us paying higher tariffs on goods from our closest partners than on China.
Today’s decision restores the rule of law and sends a clear message that our nation’s promise of equal educational opportunity cannot be unraveled by political whim.

Their attempted purge of the Department of Education is a direct assault on the protection of student’s rights and the promise of equal opportunity through education. It was a gross betrayal of American students. 5/
Their abuse targeted attorneys, student aid workers, and civil rights office staff. It left millions of students and teachers without services they need, including the enforcement of anti-discrimination laws and support for students with disabilities. 4/
The RIFs and eliminations of entire offices inhibited the Department from carrying out its statutory obligations.
I am grateful that more than 1,300 wrongfully terminated employees must be reinstated to fulfill these statutorily mandated functions. 3/
Judge Joun accurately determined that Trump and DOGE’s political purge of the Department of Education was unlawful and reaffirmed that the executive branch cannot unilaterally work toward abolishing a congressionally established agency without the approval of Congress. 2/
Judge Joun’s decision blocking Trump and DOGE's illegal efforts to gut the Department of Education and mandating the reinstatement of wrongfully terminated staff brings much-needed relief for millions of students, educators, and families across the country.
I am horrified by the act of terror that targeted the @ajcglobal.bsky.social event at the Capital Jewish Museum and claimed two innocent lives.
Our community mourns Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky. Antisemitism and political violence have no place in our society.
