Congressman Gabe Amo@amo.house.govFeb 14(source)

There you have it. Every Republican on the Budget Committee just exposed our middle class to higher costs, Medicaid recipients to benefit cuts, and gutted programs that feed kids. All this betrayal to cut taxes for their billionaire friends. That’s it, that’s the headline.

Denmark has been one of America's closest allies, trading partners, & friends for generations. Donald Trump's desire to annex the autonomous Danish territory of Greenland, through possible economic coercion or military force, is absurd. My full statement: hoyer.house.gov/media/press-...

Trump claimed he would lower costs – he has not delivered. Instead, Elon Musk and his gang of DOGE hackers are gutting programs that make job training affordable for working-class Americans. Join me and @democrats-appropriations.house.gov today: youtu.be/mnkppvqUnuk
