Medicaid has been a lifeline for 60 years.
For new moms. Seniors. People with disabilities. Everyone.
Trump and Republicans enacted the largest Medicaid cuts in history—
Stealing health care from those most in need to give tax cuts to the richest of the rich.
Shame on them.

In Chicago, we've seen a double-digit percentage drop in gun violence this year.
If we want to keep up this trend in our cities, we should be investing more in prevention programs—not less.
But Trump would rather make our streets less safe.

When I was bleeding out on a dusty field in Iraq, I didn’t care if the troops rescuing me were trans, gay, straight or anything else.
If you’re willing to sacrifice for our nation and can kill the enemy with lethal precision—you shouldn’t be denied the chance to serve. rollcall.com/2025/07/24/b...
It is an outrage that there is still not enough aid making it to Gazans in need.
And I'm horrified to see innocent civilians being targeted and killed as they try to seek out aid.
Rubio needs to address GHF's complicity in the starvation and killing of innocent Palestinians.
The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 changed lives.
But today, 35 years later, Republicans’ Medicaid cuts are attacking hard-won progress—
Cuts that will make it harder to access health care, mobility devices and more.
Trump is leaving the disability community behind.
Ahead of the ADA’s 35th anniversary tomorrow, I led @democrats.senate.gov in introducing a resolution to send a loud and clear message:
Disability rights are human rights.
As Republicans kick millions off Medicaid, we’ll never stop fighting to protect the disability community.
NEWS: I reintroduced my EACH Act with @pressley.house.gov to end the Hyde amendment and help lift unjust restrictions to reproductive health care for millions of Americans.
As Republicans kick 15 million off health care, Democrats are working to expand access.

Remember when Trump said he'd never do anything to hurt our Social Security?
In just seven years, recipients will face an $18,000 cut.
Estimated to "at least double the poverty rate of America's seniors."
It. Was. A. Lie. www.axios.com/2025/07/24/s...
Trump and Republicans just gave $4 trillion in tax giveaways to the nation’s most wealthy—
Meanwhile millions could wind up paying $700 extra next year just to keep the same plan.
Most families don’t have that kind of money lying around. This will cost lives.
For an Administration that claims to be obsessed with eliminating waste...
This is one of the dumbest, cruelest and most wasteful things they've ever done.
Typical Trump Administration.
Create chaos. Blame the victim. Repeat.
These people will point fingers at Mother Theresa before looking in the mirror.
Let’s be clear: this rescissions package isn’t about saving money.
Please, this isn’t about saving money.
Republicans just exploded the debt by at least 4 trillion dollars!!!
To fund tax cuts for billionaires.
Defunding Big Bird and Elmo isn’t going to fix that mess.
Neither is defunding programs to help starving children.
Millions get their news from NPR and PBS every day.
For emergency alerts, disaster updates, the weather and other reliable news.
Stations in rural areas, which rely twice as much on federal funding, could close.
Defunding this basic service would put millions in the dark.
Our military has more important things to do than play immigration judge.
There are actual wars going on.
Instead, Trump is distracting our troops from their core mission of protecting our national security.
I have a bill to stop this abuse.

“People will die.”
“Veterans waiting for care will die.”
@duckworth.senate.gov sounds the alarm on President Trumps' DOGE cuts to veterans care.
She’s already hearing first hand of surgeries being cancelled. 👇

It's unacceptable that the average Black woman has to work 6 months longer just to earn what a white man made last year—doing the same job.
On Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, we’re demanding what’s long overdue: Equal pay for equal work.
4 in 10 kids are covered by Medicaid.
That's over 37 million kids that Republicans just threw under the bus so they can fund even more tax breaks for their billionaire donors.
I refuse to vote for someone who refuses to uphold the 1,500-hour pilot training requirement.
Americans do not want less-trained, less-prepared pilots in the cockpit flying their planes.
Mr. Bedford must abandon any plan to weaken this gold standard and put the safety of the flying public first.
Defunding Planned Parenthood defunds life-saving care like cancer screenings and abortion.
Republicans had one of the worst ideas.
A federal judge just blocked it.
