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.

To put it simply, this regime is doing everything it can to make it more difficult for working and middle-class families to get ahead.
Today, I'm hosting a higher ed spotlight forum to look at how they are closing the door to opportunity for students.

Senate Republicans had the opportunity to give the American people the overdue truth they deserve & release the Epstein files.
They voted NO.
I’m beyond disturbed & confused as to why my colleagues continue to cover up & protect the history of a convicted child sex-trafficker.
This September is the first official Hawaiian History Month!
As we celebrate the rich history of our beautiful state, may we remember the many contributions of Native Hawaiians who have helped perpetuate Hawaiian culture, both in the past & today.
Strip millions of their health coverage ✔️
Make health insurance MORE expensive ✔️
Destroy vaccine recommendations ✔️
Undermine health care professionals ✔️
Republicans are checking all the boxes to do everything BUT make America healthy again.
99% of Americans will have LESS income after taxes because of Trump’s tariffs and Republicans' Big Ugly Bill.
NINETY-NINE PERCENT.
The only thing the “party of fiscal responsibility” can take responsibility for is taking your money and giving it to billionaires.
24 years ago, our country experienced an unimaginable tragedy that took the lives of too many.
Today, on 9/11, we remember the victims and honor those who continue to serve and protect our country.
From Denver to Utah, our country experienced two preventable & horrific public shootings today.
We cannot continue to live alongside gun violence & accept that losing lives every day is normal.
Thoughts & prayers are not enough. Congress must pass gun safety legislation now.
MAHA’s new report emphasizes “medical freedom” when it comes to vaccines & other medical decisions.
Ironic that this “medical freedom” never seems to apply to women or anyone needing reproductive or abortion care...

Once again, Trump is ILLEGALLY trying to withhold billions in lifesaving foreign aid that Congress has already approved.
If it feels like you’re getting deja vu, it’s because you are - it’s the same abuse of power & disregard for the law we’ve seen his entire Presidency.

Despite being a convicted felon himself, Trump apparently still doesn't know what a "real crime" is.
Domestic violence is a very REAL & serious crime.
I guess we shouldn’t expect better from someone who pardoned hundreds of people who assaulted cops on January 6th...
Trump and his team know they are breaking the law and hurting the American people.
Do they care? Obviously not.
If you still think they have any respect for our democracy, our law, or the lives of the American people, you're wrong.
Trump has officially declared war against an American city & is weaponizing the military to advance his political agenda.
THIS is what authoritarianism looks like.
Make no mistake, the lawlessness of this regime is a threat to every single person in this country.
After calling the stories of Epstein survivors a “hoax”, Trump called on SCOTUS to reverse a ruling that found him liable for sexual abuse.
We should be listening to & believing women, regardless of what the misogynist in chief says.
Today RFK Jr. made it very clear he is not qualified to direct the public health of our country.
Nothing about America will ever be healthy again if we have conspiracy theorists & vaccine deniers leading our nation's top health organizations.
Keep this in mind at the end of September when Republicans try to blame Democrats for a government shutdown.
We are trying to work across the aisle to deliver for Americans while keeping the government funded - Republicans aren’t.
www.cnn.com/2025/08/31/p...
It’s been 2 months since Republicans' Big Ugly Bill became law & the last 8 weeks have been a preview of what the next 3 years look like under Trump.
More expensive & more corrupt.
Billionaires get richer while daily life gets more expensive for working-class Americans.
Take it from over 1,000 health care professionals: RFK Jr. is a threat to your health, your family's health, and the health of our country.
Innocent people will die at the hands of his incompetence.
He must resign.

As if ICE's extreme detainment goals haven't ripped apart enough families, now Trump is targeting parents simply trying to reunite with their children.
The cruelty of this regime knows no bounds. apnews.com/article/immi...
ICYMI: last week, the White House announced it will pursue a pocket rescission of $4.9 billion in foreign aid.
A “pocket rescission” is just another way to say the Trump regime is canceling $5 billion in funding that Congress approved.
Why not call it what it is? Illegal.
