House Republicans just voted to cut health care, cut school lunches, and cut veterans' benefits — all to hand $7 trillion in tax breaks to Elon Musk and his billionaire friends. They've deserted their hardworking constituents to help the rich get richer.

BREAKING: The House approves a budget that could dramatically cut Medicaid. Lawmakers voted 216-214 to pass a budget blueprint that calls for $880 billion in Medicaid cuts over the next decade.

NOW: Democrats on the @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social led by Trade Subcommittee Ranking Member @replindasanchez.bsky.social introduce broad legislation to reclaim Congress’ power, roll back Trump’s tariffs, and stop him from wrecking the U.S. economy.

The Republican budget will balloon our deficits and decimate essential programs like Medicaid that the people we represent depend on. All of this to help billionaires and corporations get tax cuts that they do not need and our country cannot afford. I will vote no.

All but three House Republicans just voted for Trump's tariffs:

Every House Republican who votes for today's rule is voting for Trump's tariffs. They're voting to surrender congressional authority and their own power to stop Trump. A vote for this rule is a vote to wreck our economy.

Today the Ways and Means Committee had a hearing on Trump's idiotic trade policy. I told his U.S. Trade Representative: that policy is "stupid and bad." It's such a disaster that shortly after this Trump suspended his latest tariffs hours after they took effect. youtube.com/shorts/R-kiT...

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 9(source)

It's good that Trump caved on some of the tariffs he put on our trading partners, but his universal 10% tariffs, trade wars with China and Canada, and auto and other sector tariffs still threaten our economy. He should drop them too. The best time to stop punching yourself in the face is right now.

House Republican leaders just again added a provision to today's rule vote - the procedural measure providing for floor consideration of the Senate-passed budget resolution - that would prevent this legislation to stop Trump's tariffs from getting a vote. Statement from @beyer.house.gov:

This resolution from @meeks.house.gov @neal.house.gov @repricklarsen.bsky.social, which I cosponsored, has privilege on the House floor. We are going to force House Republicans to vote on Trump's crazy tariffs and the destruction they are unleashing on our economy.

House Democrats just formally introduced our joint resolution to terminate Trump's April 2nd declaration of emergency, which would eliminate the tariffs he announced last Wednesday.

Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday to stand up and make their voices heard. Millions of us across the country showed we will not be silent!

As seen on the national mall today, where over a hundred thousand people gathered today to stand up for democracy:

As the lawless authoritarian in the White House is doing his damnedest to trample the Constitution, Americans across the country are standing in hope and solidarity today - and sending a clear message: We will never stop fighting for our country.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 4(source)

Tariffs are taxes. Consumers pay those taxes, and they are regressive—meaning they hit low and middle income people harder than high income people. Coupled with Trump's tax cuts for the rich, this will be the largest transfer of wealth from the working and middle class to the wealthy in history.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 4(source)

Some of you are coming up to the National Mall tomorrow to make your voices heard, and that's great. I'll see you there!

Investment is on pause. Your 401K is down. Uncertainty is up. The Wall Street Journal called it the dumbest trade war in history. When they're right, they're right. This Committee should be leading the charge to protect the economy from a tariff program that will make us poorer and kill jobs.

And similarly, @usrepjimmypanetta.bsky.social's Reclaim Trade Powers Act, which I also cosponsored, addresses potential abuses of tariff authorities using Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. We are working to address different contingencies with these bills: bsky.app/profile/usre...

Today, I introduced the Reclaim Trade Powers Act, legislation that would strip outdated presidential tariff powers and ensure that major trade decisions require Congressional approval. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govApr 3(source)

Trump reportedly has been exploring using additional authorities he can abuse to impose tariffs, including Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930. @repschneider.bsky.social's Repealing Outdated and Unilateral Tariff Authorities Act addresses that (I'm a cosponsor): bsky.app/profile/reps...

Trump's chaotic trade wars are costing American retirement accounts, businesses, and the economy. That's why I introduced the Repealing Outdated and Unilateral Tariff Authorities Act, which would remove a trade war weapon from Trump's arsenal that is ultimately a tax on you and your family.
