It's the President's job to keep the government open— President Trump said so himself.   We can keep the government open and stop health care costs from rising even further, but only if he and congressional republicans are willing to negotiate.

This #NationalPublicLandsDay, I'm celebrating the beauty of Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge. Public lands like these belong to all of us. As the Trump administration tries to sell them off, we must stand strong and protect future generations' access to our natural heritage.

Another day, another major investment at Delaware State University, it's no surprise they were just ranked #4 among public HBCUs! Partnerships like this give DSU students the skills they need to face the challenges of today & tomorrow. Proud to support all they do for DE's future leaders.

Removing signs in National Parks telling stories of slavery, climate change, Japanese American detention, and conflicts with Native Americans doesn’t make America great…     It just proves how afraid Trump is of the truth.

The National Park Service has removed signs that make reference to climate change amid the Trump administration’s wider effort to remove information that it says undermines “the remarkable achievements of the United States.”

Can think of a lot of hospitals, schools and food pantries that could use twenty billion dollars to actually help our own citizens…

Donald Trump wants to lend $20 billion of our money to bail out a political ally and his global investors before an election. Oh, and Argentina just struck a major deal with China that crushes American soybean farmers already suffering from Trump's tariffs. “America First.”
Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govSep 25(source)
Instead of negotiating, the Trump admin is trying a different strategy: threaten to do something they’re already doing. While Republicans play games with federal workers’ lives, Democrats are fighting to restore health care for millions of Americans. We are not the same.
White House begins plan for mass firings if there’s a government shutdown
The Office of Management and Budget sent a memo to federal agencies Wednesday night instructing them to plan for staff reductions, including firings.

The Trump administration is rejecting help from experts - our doctors, nurses and scientists - opting instead to make medical recommendations based on no evidence at all. RFK Jr was never going to make America healthier, but now it’s clear how harmful his recklessness could be.
