Democrats simply want to ensure Americans can afford health care next year, and Republicans are calling us the bad guys in this scenario??

Worldwide, public health leaders are pushing back against this regime’s false statements linking Tylenol to autism.
Trump can’t even pronounce the word “acetaminophen”, yet he thinks he’s more qualified than global experts and decades of research to dictate medical care?
Removing signs in National Parks telling stories of slavery, climate change, Japanese American detention, and conflicts with Native Americans doesn’t make America great…
It just proves how afraid Trump is of the truth.
Buying a house is unattainable.
Finding a job is impossible.
And the cost of groceries is becoming budget-crushing.
In just 9 months, Trump has squashed the opportunity for anyone but millionaires to live out the American dream.
In January, Trump issued an executive order “restoring freedom of speech.”
Since then, he has:
✅Arrested student protesters
✅Canceled late-night talk shows that criticized him
✅Called critical news coverage of him "illegal"
...all for exercising their freedom of speech.
First stop: Zippy's!
After a long month back in DC, it's so good to be home!
The power is with the people. Kimmel's show returning to air proves that.
This administration can try to silence and suppress the voices of its opponents, but your actions make the difference.
Keep it up, America.

We have 7 days to find a solution to stop a government shutdown, and Trump has yet to solidify a time to sit down and talk to Democrats.
Democrats are trying to find a solution while Trump is busy rambling on Truth Social.
If the government shuts down, it is 100% his fault.
This regime is weakening our nation's best tools for keeping Americans safe and healthy.
Food assistance, health insurance, and now vaccines…
Undermining the legitimacy of vaccines will cause irreparable harm to our country's health, and Americans will die because of it.
Republicans have taken full control of our federal budget with ZERO respect for bipartisanship or Democratic opinion.
Now, they want Democrats to roll over and vote for a bill that will only add to the terrors brought on by their Big Ugly Bill, without even sitting down with us.
I don't think so.
I joined my colleagues in designating this week as Community School Coordinators Appreciation Week!
Every day, community school coordinators across the country play a crucial role in making sure our students can succeed.
It's time we recognize their work www.hirono.senate.gov/news/press-r...
I held a higher ed spotlight forum to highlight how this regime is making it next to impossible for working and middle-class students to get ahead.
You should ask yourself: Why is this administration closing the door to opportunity on our students, and who is it actually working for?
Everything this administration is doing is to transform the government into a source of unchecked power for Donald Trump to strongarm his enemies.
That's not democracy, that's autocracy.
Trump cut cancer funding, & is now ramping up the release of dangerous pollutants, KNOWING that it increases the risk of cancer.
Cutting cancer funding & increasing cancer risks. That's Trump's agenda.
He's lying through his teeth when he says he's making America healthy again.
This week kicks off Hispanic Heritage Month! This month and every month, may we celebrate the countless contributions Hispanic communities have made to our culture and country!
Trump just confirmed what we all already knew.
He “couldn’t care less” about uniting Americans.
He knows he's stronger when we are divided, so he's capitalizing on political opposition & hate to distract you from realizing what you should really oppose – his policies.
This regime clearly wants to abuse its power and begin policing speech throughout our country.
Let today, Constitution Day, be a reminder that our Constitution affirms it is our fundamental right as Americans to speak freely, even if those in power don’t like what we’re saying.
Last week, I met with NHOA to discuss how we can continue to advocate for Hawaii's businesses and the communities they serve.
These are not normal times. We all need to make sure we are doing everything we can to support local communities.
That ‘huge premium shock’ means a 75% price increase, costing Americans $700 MORE a year to get essential health care.
Trump's policies are already causing costs to skyrocket; we can't add another expense for Americans to worry about.
We must protect & extend the ACA credits.
With two weeks to prevent a shutdown, Republicans are refusing to negotiate with Democrats to find a bipartisan solution that will keep the government funded.
They’d rather shut down the government than even attempt to find a bipartisan solution.
