This year, 3 representatives-elect were sworn in less than 24 hours after their special elections. It’s been TWO WEEKS. I proudly joined my House Democratic colleagues in calling on Speaker Johnson to swear in Rep.-elect Grijalva as soon as possible.

Five members of Pennsylvania’s seven-member Democratic delegation to Congress signed onto a letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) calling on him to swear in newly-elected Arizona representative Adelita Grijalva. #PoliticsPA www.politicspa.com/pa-democrati...

Open enrollment starts soon, and my constituents can’t wait to find out if the GOP, who have total control of Washington, will extend the tax credits that make their health care coverage affordable. If you're already seeing your premiums rise, I want to hear from you!
If Republicans let Affordable Care Act tax credits expire, a family of four in PA-03 making $64,000 will see their annual premiums rise by 327%
If Republicans let Affordable Care Act tax credits expire, a 60-year-old couple in PA-03 making $82,800 will see their annual premiums rise by $11,485

Our dedicated federal workers should NOT be used as political pawns! Let’s be clear: it’s against the law to deny federal workers back pay after a shutdown. Trump should know- he signed the law after he last shut down the federal government.
Screenshot from Washington Post article. Text reads: Administration officials hope the memo will maximize Republicans’ leverage in shutdown negotiations with Democrats, according to two people familiar with internal talks, both speaking on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. Trump and Vice President JD Vance have threatened imminent mass layoffs of federal employees — from arms of the federal government that Trump called “Democrat agencies” — but have yet to carry out the firings.

Breaking news: Furloughed federal workers are not entitled to automatic back pay after the government shutdown ends, the Trump administration argues, adding that a law Trump signed guaranteeing back pay to furloughed workers in 2019 does no such thing.

Good to see a shift in WORDS from congressional Republicans – now let’s see ACTIONS. The GOP must end their vacation, bring the House back to Washington, and work with us to stop the shutdown of health care that’s looming for 24 million Americans. Democrats have BEEN ready to get to work.
Screenshot of NBC News Headline: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene breaks with the GOP on Obamacare, calling to avoid premium hikes Greene said she's "not a fan" of Obamacare but complained that her "own adult children’s insurance premiums for 2026 are going to DOUBLE" if Congress ignores the issue.
Screenshot of Wall Street Journal Headline: Trump Open to Healthcare Talks With Democrats to End Shutdown Since the government shutdown began, Democrats and Republicans have been at an impasse over extending Obamacare subsidies
Screenshot of NPR Headline: Time is short for an ACA premium fix in the shutdown fight, says GOP insurance leader
Screenshot of HuffPost Headline: Mike Johnson Shifts Tone On Health Care As Shutdown Drags On “Republicans are the ones concerned about health care,” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said Monday.

Philadelphians are seeing higher prices at coffee shops and grocery stores when grabbing their morning brew. ☕️ A big reason why: Trump's reckless tariffs - and congressional Republicans’ refusals to take back Congress' tariff power. #Trumpflation
Sky-high coffee prices have become ‘too much’ for some Philly-area consumers
Caffeine lovers are feeling the pinch at coffee shops and grocery stores. Small-business owners say they have no choice but to raise prices as volatile weather and tariffs put pressure on the market.
Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialOct 5(source)
Trump said he would lower costs on day one- not shut down Pennsylvanians’ health care by doubling their insurance premiums. This should not be a partisan issue - hard-working Americans across the country, in red and blue districts alike, rely on ACA credits to afford their health care.

This is a remarkable statistic: 18.7 million out of the 24.3 million Obamacare enrollees are in states won by President Trump in 2024. www.kff.org/quick-take/m...

On Sept. 12, Trump told the congressional GOP: “Don’t even bother dealing with [Democrats]... We have to get Republican votes. That’s all." Now the government is shut down. If Republicans don’t want to work with Democrats to lower health care costs, they can fund the government on their own.
Johnson won’t commit to vote on potential Senate compromise as shutdown drags on
House Speaker Mike Johnson said in an interview with Scripps News that he is not committing to putting a potential Senate compromise to reopen the government on the House floor.
Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialOct 3(source)
A quick reminder for the Speaker: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. HE is the one keeping the House closed and refusing to protect health care for millions of Americans. And that’s plain and simple.
Congressman Dwight Evans@repdwightevans.bsky.socialOct 3(source)
Our troops, TSA officers, air traffic controllers, & others who are working unpaid are not “having fun with this,” Mr. Speaker. Furloughed federal employees aren't "having fun with this." Americans whose premiums will DOUBLE thanks to Republican inaction aren't “having fun with this."

Mike Johnson on the government shutdown: “Is he trolling the Democrats? Yes. I mean, yes, because that’s what President Trump does, and people are having fun with this.”
