Today I met with members of the NTEU from #PA03 to discuss the impact of the Musk-Trump Administration’s actions on federal workers & services in Philly. Trump promised not to "touch" Social Security- but his actions speak louder than words and are harming hard-working Americans.

I think I know why a lot of Republicans didn’t applaud last night when Trump attacked the Chips & Science Act. AWKWARD A reminder: this NY GOP congressman lost by 8 points just days after the speaker said this in his district.
Hi everybody - you might remember me from when I asked Speaker Mike Johnson if he and Trump will repeal the CHIPS Act. (He said yes.) You can watch that again here: youtu.be/hzwQXL77VVA?...
Completely or largely missing from Trump's speech last night: • Details on lowering prices & costs for working-class Americans • Tackling the affordable housing crisis • Health care affordability & accessibility • Ending our nation’s gun-violence epidemic • Caring for our nation's veterans

Most Americans did NOT vote for higher prices.   Co-president Trump promised to lower prices on day 1. Today is day 44.   While the White House and Congressional Republicans are focused on kissing up to their billionaire donor buddies it's hard-working Americans who continue to suffer.
I took some time today to speak with Kathy, a mom from Northwest Philadelphia whose daughter relies on Medicaid. She told me Republicans’ proposed cuts feel like "an unfathomably cruel abandonment." Listen to our conversation below.
As President Trump continues to act unlawfully and legally questionably, like his mass federal firings and refusing to deliver federal funding already appropriated by law, I feel he has not earned the honor of my presence to listen to his speech in person tonight.
Having served as PA House Appropriations majority and minority chair for 20 years, if a governor of EITHER party refused to spend appropriated funding, I'd insist on guarantees in the funding we pass into law. Read my statement below on the current government funding negotiations:

Text: Rep. Evans’ statement on March 14th Funding Deadline. 

It is outrageous that Republicans would walk away from bipartisan negotiations to fund the government, raising the risk of a wider shutdown than we’re already enduring. They currently control the White House, Senate and House of Representatives and have the duty to earn votes for any bill.

For my part, having served as Pennsylvania House Appropriations majority and minority chair for a total of 20 years, if a governor of either party had refused to spend funding required by law like President Trump is doing, I would insist on guarantees that the funding we pass into law will be spent on the services and benefits that our constituents count on! And Congressional Republicans would expect the same if a Democratic president tried what Trump’s doing. 

I’m unmoved by Republican comments that we haven’t included these types of safeguards in spending bills before – we haven’t had to before! New circumstances often require new actions. 

This is about the impact on the people we represent, who are already suffering from shutdowns happening right now across their government!
