Trump knows Republicans own this shutdown and its impacts on the American people.
We all know this needs to end.
It’s time for him to bring his party to the table so we can fix the health care crisis they created and reopen the government.

From collapsing people to a collapsing economy, President Trump's reaction has been about the same.
What on earth?
You don't need an ID to buy groceries or gas, and every state verifies the identity of its voters.
The 'voter ID laws' he's talking about are meant to intimidate and shut people out of our Democratic process— of course we're not just going to let it happen.
American history and relentlessly fighting for democracy.
She leaves a legacy as a trailblazer for generations of women to come.
On behalf of a grateful nation: thank you, Madam Speaker.
During my time in the House, I came to know @pelosi.house.gov as a fierce leader and advocate for American families.
She led our caucus during some of the America's most challenging times, from the great recession to COVID-19, championing some of the most consequential legislation in...
I wish this administration would focus on helping struggling Americans, but this isn't a good sign.
Last night, Americans across the country made it clear: they want leaders who stand up to bullies, work to bring down costs, and fight to protect their access to health care.
@democrats.senate.gov are ready.
The administration is only sending partial SNAP payments to families, causing headaches for states and stress for recipients.
Hunger is not a game.
They need to obey the court and send full payments out immediately.
With open enrollment underway and premiums set to skyrocket, I met with health care advocates in Wilmington to discuss the impacts they're seeing in our state.
We must act to end this health care crisis, reform our insurance system, and lower costs.
Delawareans can't wait.
This morning, I heard from Reverend Fleshman what skyrocketing premiums mean for our communities
These price hikes leave people with few options, and none of them are good— we need this administration to come to the table and take action to make care affordable for ALL of us.
After kicking millions of Americans off their insurance, Republicans are refusing to take action to prevent outrageous price hikes like this for millions more.
They're making our communities sicker and poorer, and they don't even seem to care.
Open enrollment begins today, and folks up and down our state are about to see what Republicans’ refusal to come to the table really costs.
Head to healthcare.gov to see what these skyrocketing premiums could mean for you and your family.
Millions of Americans are about to see their premiums double.
Let’s see what the President is working on:
When open enrollment begins tomorrow, a 61-year-old in Georgetown will see a premium that’s *446% higher* than it was last year - $1,192.45 per month.
With everyday costs already high, this is simply unaffordable.
We cannot let this stand.
As the Trump admin. refuses to use emergency funds to help folks on SNAP, states like ours are stepping up.
I just introduced legislation that would make sure states aren’t left footing the bill.
Let Me Be Blunt: congressional Republicans are about to let our friends and neighbors go hungry.
42 MILLION people are about to lose access to food assistance.
It’s time for Republicans to come back to the table and help us fix this.
Thanks to Republicans in Washington, a 50-year-old couple in Middletown will see their premiums go up by 224% this Saturday.
Are there any Delawareans who want to spend more than $1,200 extra PER MONTH for their health coverage?
This administration let nearly 100 million pounds of food go to waste rather than deliver it to food banks.
It’s like they WANT millions of Americans to go hungry.
The government has been shut down for 28 days.
