Republicans are stealing food off children’s plates by letting their partisan wandering affect WIC payments. Millions of hardworking families are already struggling to make ends meet, and Republicans are hellbent on worsening their suffering. www.cnn.com/2025/10/06/p...

Millions of moms and young kids could lose WIC food assistance within two weeks amid shutdown | CNN Politics

Barbie Anderson is trying to conserve the milk her three young children drink in case she doesn’t get her WIC benefits on October 15 as scheduled.

Trump is trying to steal federal workers paychecks. The law is clear: Every single federal employee affected by the Republican shutdown is entitled to full back pay. Congress passed it, and Trump signed it. Denying workers paychecks is wage theft.

Furloughed federal workers face threat of no back pay from shutdown, despite 2019 law requiring it

As the federal shutdown stretches on, furloughed federal workers face the threat of not receiving back pay, despite a 2019 law that requires it.

We can’t keep kicking this can down the road. Nobody should have to choose between their healthcare or paying rent, but that’s the reality Republicans are building. We need to save our healthcare now.

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govOct 9(source)

It’s just another lie to distract the public from the real threat—millions of Americans will see their healthcare costs double. Check the facts yourself: (2/2)

Do Democrats want health care for ‘illegal aliens’?

Republicans said Democrats shut down the government because they want health care for immigrants in the U.S. illegally. That’s False. Democrats want to reverse parts of Trump’s spending law that made ...

Republicans are spreading misinformation and false claims to fearmonger and corner Americans into the healthcare crisis they created. Undocumented individuals are not eligible for healthcare tax credits or Medicaid coverage. (1/2)

This isn't the time to kick up your feet, it’s time to roll up your sleeves and do your damn job. (2/2)

Rep. Gil Cisneros@cisneros.house.govOct 9(source)

We are over a week into a government shutdown and House Republicans are no closer to striking a deal. Vital resources are paused, thousands of federal workers—including our servicemembers—are going without pay, and the healthcare of millions of Americans is on the line. (1/2)

Trump's off-script comments cause shutdown headaches for GOP

President Donald Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune are straining to project a united front against Democrats.

300,000+ people in CA-31 rely on Medi-Cal for life-saving healthcare. I stopped by El Proyecto Del Barrio to speak with patients and providers about how Medi-Cal funding cuts would impact them.

If you live in HUD or USDA housing, make sure to brush up on your legal rights. Tenants should not face rent increases, terminations, or evictions because of the shutdown.

Are you a HUD or USDA tenant? Know your rights during the government shutdown! 🏢Continue paying your portion of the rent ☎️Contact an attorney ASAP if your landlord tries to hike your rent or evict you during the shutdown 🔍Check out nhlp.org/govshutdown for more detailed info on your housing rights

Graphic titled "HUD and USDA tenants' rights during the government shutdown" that explains what happens during a government shutdown, urges tenants to find legal help so they can know their rights, and notes that most tenants in HUD and USDA housing should not experience a disruption in their housing at this time because of the shutdown. There is a disclaimer at the bottom that notes this is not legal advice and if the shutdown lasts past November, tenants' rights will change and they should seek legal help.

Today marks two years since the horrific terror attack on Israel. We grieve the innocent lives lost on October 7th and the war that has continued after. It’s past time to bring the hostages home and put an end to the violence, once and for all.

The Hatch Act isn’t a suggestion, it’s the law. Federal agencies work for the people, not the President. This is a blatant violation of the law.

Speaker Johnson is preventing Representative-elect Grijalva from getting sworn in and adding the final signature needed to release the Epstein Files. It’s cowardly and unconstitutional. Swear in Rep-elect Grijalva and release the Epstein Files. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/u...

While Republicans rip away healthcare, our providers are continuing to serve the needs of our neighbors. I visited a community center in West Covina to discuss what we can do to support patients and providers during the Republican healthcare crisis. (1/2)

Republicans have the House. Republicans have the Senate. Republicans have the White House. They keep trying to shift blame on Democrats, but Americans see right through them. End the Republican vacation and let’s get back to work.
