The Constitution is very clear (as the White House website currently explains): the Congress, not the President, has the power of the purse.

Happy Diwali to everyone celebrating in Philadelphia and beyond!
Wishing you a wonderful and joyous festival spent with friends, family, and loved ones.
While critical federal services are being cut and millions of Americans are about to see a shutdown of their health care, Trump is “uninterested” in “deploying” his “dealmaking background.”
Whatever happened to ‘I alone can fix it’ and ‘The Art of the Deal’?
#GOPShutdown
🚨Today's the day! 🚨
It's the LAST day to register to vote or update your registration in PA before the upcoming election.
Visit vote.phila.gov to make sure you’re registered to vote and that it’s up to date, then help make sure your friends’ and family’s are too!
During this #GOPShutdown, our dedicated air-traffic controllers are understaffed and working unpaid- but this what the Trump administration is prioritizing.
If the House were in session rather than on day 31 of the GOP’s vacation, we could be doing oversight of the executive branch.
Trump’s immigration enforcement policies are horrific and out of control- when will congressional Republicans join Democrats in holding his administration accountable for these abuses? (2/2)
According to ProPublica’s investigation, of the more 170 AMERICAN CITIZENS detained, nearly 20 are children- including two with cancer. (1/2)
If you’ve moved recently, changed your name since the election, or just can’t remember if you’re registered- NOW is the time to check that your voter registration is up to date!
Visit vote.phila.gov/register to check your registration or visit a Satellite Election Office (open on weekends too!):
⏰Hey Philly: The deadline to register to vote is 3 days away!
Your vote is your vote in this upcoming election- especially in PA where three state Supreme Court justices are on the ballot.
When they thought the IRS was being weaponized against conservatives, congressional Republicans went on the record against it. But now, after credible reporting of Trump using the IRS to target his critics and dissenters- most Republicans in Congress are silent.
Today, I joined Ranking Member Neal and my Ways and Means Democratic colleagues in demanding an investigation into this latest abuse from the Trump administration.
28 days and counting! House Democrats are ready and have been waiting to get to work for the American people- but once again, Speaker Johnson and House Republicans extended their paid vacation today for ANOTHER week.
Calculate how much this GOP health care spike will cost you this fall here:
Time is running out! There are only 15 days until Pennie Open Enrollment begins.
And if Republicans don’t act and extend ACA tax credits NOW, many Pennsylvanians will see a shutdown of their health care- as they see their premiums skyrocket or get priced out of coverage altogether.
Enough is enough. It’s far past time for Speaker Johnson to swear in Rep.-elect Grijalva - TODAY.
Why is he so afraid of a vote on releasing the Epstein files? What on earth is IN those Epstein files?
Reposted byCongressman Dwight Evans
Man, this freaking guy.
"I have no staff ... The phones don't work. There's no computer," Grijalva says from her sparsely furnished office on Capitol Hill. "We don't have a government email." www.npr.org/2025/10/16/g...
Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)
Exactly right.
Why won’t Mike Johnson and House Republicans negotiate with Democrats to end this government shutdown AND the shutdown of health care for 24 million Americans? What are they scared of?
Why wait? What else does the speaker have to do right now?
The House isn't voting, as he’s keeping House Republicans on a 27-day paid vacation. And he’s not swearing in Rep.-elect Grijalva because he apparently wants to duck a vote on releasing the Epstein files.
