I'm tired of hearing Republicans say they'll deal with the health care crisis they created "later."
Later is TOO LATE.
If Republicans could rush to give billionaires tax breaks this summer, we can save families from seeing their health care premiums more than double RIGHT NOW.

I voted NO on the annual defense policy bill.
Trump is lying about chaos on our streets to deploy the military against our own citizens.
I support our troops always, but I DON'T support a President who says Democratic cities should be used as "training grounds" for the military.
The corruption on display here is clear as day. But we can't simply be quiet.
We all have to speak out against the weaponization of our Justice Department.
We need a DOJ that works for the people, not one that is focused on political retribution for Donald Trump.
Republicans care about your health care? Yeah, right.
Right now, Donald Trump and Republican leaders would rather keep the government closed than figure out a solution to save your health care. Watch what they do, not what they say.
"This situation is devastating—and it's also anti-small business."
Rebecca and her husband are entrepreneurs in Seattle who will see their health care premiums increase at least $1,300 a month if Republicans refuse to save the health care tax credits.
People in red states will hurt the most from Republicans' refusal to address this health care crisis and they deserve to know who is fighting for them—and who isn't.
Idaho families could see premiums jump from $611 to $2,083 a month if Republicans refuse to work with Democrats to save the health care tax credits. That's an increase of $1,472 a month for the SAME plan.
Republicans won’t talk about it but Democrats refuse to let that happen.
A reporter asked me what my conversations have been like with GOP WA Reps Newhouse and Baumgartner.
Nonexistent—they've been on vacation.
But if they WERE here, I'd say it's YOUR constituents that are most at risk. You need to talk to Speaker Johnson about protecting health care.
We are not at war with Venezuela and NO President can go to war without Congress.
Trump's illegal strikes in the Caribbean have already killed 21 people, with no evidence that they are who Trump says.
This puts us all at risk, so I voted to END these dangerous abuses of power.
When tax breaks for billionaires were set to expire in December, Republicans made that priority number 1—because heaven forbid billionaires have to worry about filling up their private jets!
But tax credits for families to afford health care? Republicans refuse to talk about it.
Every Congressional Republican needs to answer: Do you support the President's call to imprison the Governor of Illinois and Mayor of Chicago?
Trump is not a king. This is not acceptable. Do Republicans want a dictator or a President?
There is nothing Republican leaders are doing that even suggests they are serious about ending the shutdown or preventing your health care costs from skyrocketing—House Republicans aren't even here!

Big thank you to the great @murray.senate.gov for joining Meidas Health today with my great friend and physician leader @drkavitapatel.bsky.social to break down the terrible impacts of rhe government shutdown on our nations health.
On Day 8 of the Republican shutdown I want to be clear: Democrats are still here. We are still at the table. And we are still ready to work together on a deal to reopen the government and address this health care crisis.
Republicans ARE in disarray.
It's because Americans are realizing Republicans chose to shut down the government rather than work with Democrats to stop your health care premiums from doubling.
Chaos, higher prices, and shutdowns—that's the Republican agenda.
House Republicans haven't shown up to work in 18 days. But if they do decide to show up—I have a message for them.
3/4s of the families that rely on the expiring health care credits that you refuse to acknowledge live in red states.
Time to show up and do your jobs.
The scenes out of Chicago should outrage us all. These federal agents are out of control, committing senseless acts of violence & putting everyone at risk.
American citizens are being detained & brutalized.
This kind of immigration "enforcement" shouldn't be acceptable to anyone.
Here are the 10 states that will see the highest premium increases for families that lose tax credits if Republicans refuse to act.
West Virginia 387%
Wyoming 382%
Alaska 346%
Tennessee 320%
Mississippi 314%
Texas 289%
South Carolina 285%
Alabama 284%
South Dakota 235%
North Dakota 234%
Trump promised he wouldn't touch your Social Security benefits. He lied.
This is a benefit cut. Republicans don't care, and in fact, they're doing everything they can to undermine the Social Security Administration.
Democrats are fighting to protect Social Security.
The letter of the law is as plain as can be—federal workers, including furloughed workers, are entitled to their backpay following a shutdown.
Another baseless attempt to try and scare & intimidate workers by an administration run by crooks and cowards.
