Last week, House Republicans left town without extending healthcare subsidies. They once again chose their own vacation over you. Democrats will keep fighting for healthcare and lower costs.

Headline and article text from LA Daily News overlayed a darkened image of someone being pushed on a hospital bed. Text reads: “In-House Opinions: Local representatives on lowering healthcare costs” and “Rep Ted Lieu, D-Torrance: “They knew the ACA subsidies were set to expire, and they chose to do nothing. Now, at the eleventh hour, Speaker Johnson has put forward a so-called plan that still fails to lower premiums or provide certainty for families. That is not leadership, and it is not a serious solution. The most straightforward and responsible path forward is to extend the ACA tax credits. That is why I support the discharge petition for a clean, three-year extension — and why a majority of members agree with me. I also demand Republicans cancel their $1 trillion cut to Medicaid and $500 billion cut to Medicare. Speaker Johnson should stop delaying and work with Democrats to stop the Republican healthcare crisis.”

Kennedy family members today denounced a plan to rename the Kennedy Center so it includes President Trump's surname.

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialDec 18(source)

Health care costs are skyrocketing and grocery prices continue to increase. So what is the Trump Administration focused on? Illegally forcing Trump’s name onto the Kennedy Center. The Democratic President next term will happily make a show of removing Trump’s name and stench.

The Kennedy Center name is established by federal statute, and therefore may be repealed only by federal statute. www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

DEAR WHITEHOUSE: NOBODY’S SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. AFTER THAT #PRESIDENTIALADDRESS (EVEN BETTER THEN THE LOW ENERGY GETTYSBURG ADDRESS), PLEASE SEND DONALD TRUMP (WINNER OF FIFA PEACE PRIZE) TO EVERY SINGLE HOUSE SWING DISTRICT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

WATCH — @terrymoranabc.bsky.social : “He was loud. He sounded like a man shouting at the nation. He said the guy who’s gone, it’s still his fault- and it’s not as bad as you think it is… but facts of people’s lives refute you. I thought that was a huge mistake.”

A grand jury can indict a ham sandwich. Trump's Department of Justice failed to indict Letitia James twice. The President is focused on retribution, not the needs of the American people.

Grocery costs continue to increase. Healthcare costs are skyrocketing. What is Trump focused on right now? Starting another forever war in Venezuela. We need congressional oversight.

As a former prosecutor, I know a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich. The refusal of multiple grand juries to indict Letitia James, along with statements by the Administration, show DOJ abused its power. Next term Congress will investigate DOJ officials for abuse of power.

Strongly support President Trump going on the road to every House district to talk about tariffs helping farmers, racial profiling by ICE, and Medicaid cuts that own the libs. Many people say that Congressman Valadao would love this.

Grocery, electricity, and healthcare costs are all increasing. What is the Trump Administration focused on? Boat strikes in Venezuela that may not even be heading for the U.S. and are not clearly legal. Their priorities are all completely messed up.
