Temps are dropping, but people are getting left out in the cold because the shutdown is delaying LIHEAP money to help pay utility bills, and energy costs are way too high.
We've got to get this fixed.
I remain ready to hash out a deal in Washington to end the shutdown.

A new Joint Economic Committee Minority report puts hard numbers to the pain we've all been feeling from our electric bills: they're up almost 10% in PA and we're shelling out $170 more per year.
Republican politicians in full control of Washington are failing to lower costs.
Airlines using AI to gather personal information—like if people are traveling to a funeral—to jack up prices on desperate people is ridiculous.
It’s an unacceptable abuse of corporate power.
I think everyone in Congress should come back to Washington to hash out a deal to end this shutdown & lower costs.
But the truth is: if Republican politicians want to re-open the govt without working with Democrats, they can.
They already get around the Senate filibuster whenever they want to.
Powerful words from Pope Leo on our shared humanity. www.reuters.com/world/americ...
These are the stakes.
There's still time to avoid this healthcare cost crisis—but only if Republican Speaker Mike Johnson calls the House back into session and we hash out a deal NOW.
More on my bill with @sarajacobs.house.gov to check presidential authority and reform the Insurrection Act of 1807: deluzio.house.gov/media/press-...
Q: Why do we need to reform the centuries-old Insurrection Act that gives presidents so much power to deploy troops to on American soil?
A: 👇
Good, but not enough. We need to get the government back open and funded for every American.

Trump is abusing his power during the government shutdown to terminate 321 energy projects that would help lower energy costs and create jobs across our country.
This job-killing decision goes after $8 billion in projects and will do nothing to make life less of a ripoff for hardworking Americans.
This Administration needs to stop playing politics, follow the court order, and get SNAP money to folks who need it now. [2/2]
On Friday—hours before courts ordered the Trump Administration to use emergency funds to keep SNAP benefits going out—I volunteered at @412foodrescue.bsky.social to help get food to hungry Western Pennsylvanians. [1/2]
It's not just people who get health insurance from the ACA who are staring down the barrel of huge spikes in their premium costs: Congressional Republicans' refusal to fix this healthcare crisis will have a spillover effect and drive up costs for many more Americans.
We can't let that happen.
I've been pushing the Trump Administration to spend stockpiled SNAP emergency funds to help hungry Americans buy food during the government shutdown. Now, the courts are stepping in to make them do it.
Good.
She bravely spoke her mind and showed a sense of urgency—but also hope—about taking bold action to better protect us from these kinds of storms.
I wrote Lily a thank you letter and encouraged her to never shy away from making her voice heard. [3/3]
Lily told me how scared and isolated she felt this spring when those big storms rolled through—school was canceled because the power was out, and she couldn't even walk around her neighborhood because of downed electric lines. [2/3]
Last week, a sixth grader joined a meeting in my office about cleaning up our air. [1/3]
The Trump Administration can act right now to fund SNAP with emergency funds—and they need to.
Washington politicians should stop playing games when it comes to Americans putting food on the table. [2/2]
Thousands of Western PA families, including some folks I met with last night, are staring down the barrel of a hunger crisis.
They and millions of other Americans are about to miss out on SNAP funds to buy food because of the government shutdown. [1/2]
We shouldn't be in this foolish government shutdown in the first place.
Speaker Mike Johnson needs to bring the House back into session so we can hammer out a deal to get federal workers back on the job and paid, and stop rising healthcare costs and missed SNAP funds from pummeling people.
