Republicans' budget will light more than $5 trillion on fire—not to protect Social Security or make child care more affordable—but to shower billionaires with tax cuts they don’t need, pushing our country into unprecedented debt.

I've been clear from the start: Republicans are coming for Medicaid.
They're gearing up to close down hospitals, kick kids off their health care, and push seniors out of nursing homes.
All so they can funnel that money into the pockets of billionaires.
No billionaire left behind—that is the Republican agenda.
The message Republicans are sending folks back home is that there is always more money for billionaires, but it’s tough times for everyone else—which means kicking kids off Medicaid and choking off cancer research.
As Trump runs our economy into the ground, Republicans are handing money to billionaires hand over fist, while raising prices—raising taxes—on every American.
We could stop Trump’s tariffs today—instead, Republicans are cheering Trump as he drives us toward a painful recession.
Republicans' pro-billionaire, anti-middle-class budget will take food off the family table to put more fuel in private jets.
It's absolutely wrong, and not what our constituents sent us here to do.
Donald Trump is golfing with Saudi Arabian despots while he pushes our economy toward a recession of his own making.
We could be voting RIGHT NOW to reverse Trump’s tariffs and price hikes if Republicans would work with us to save the economy.
I just voted NO on Republicans' pro-billionaire & anti-middle class budget blueprint.
I’m not going vote for a bill that lets Republicans shower billionaires with trillions in tax cuts while kicking kids off Medicaid.
Instead, we should vote to STOP Trump’s tariffs.
Keeping America's promise to our veterans is personal to me—from my dad's service during WWII, to interning at the Seattle VA during the Vietnam War, to the stories I hear each & every day.
By firing over 80,000 VA workers—Trump is breaking that promise.
Trump is the most pro-billionaire, anti-worker President ever—and his Executive Order ending collective bargaining for federal employees is just another way to intimidate workers and rip away their rights.
I joined Senate Democrats to demand he reverse this immediately.
Right now a woman in Georgia—who was found bleeding and unconscious outside her apartment—is sitting behind bars for MISCARRYING.
And now Republicans in 11 states are pushing bills to punish women who have abortions as murderers.
SPEAK OUT—they're hoping you don't notice.
Trump's tariffs are a TAX that will cost the average family nearly $4,000 *per year.*
Congress has the power to immediately reverse the Trump tax on families—and we should do so ASAP.
Any Republican who refuses to is joining Trump in raising prices and destroying the economy.
Medicaid recipients have their choice of qualified health care providers, and that includes Planned Parenthood.
The case before SCOTUS today is about anti-choice Republicans trying to shut down Planned Parenthood & block people from getting basic health care—& we're fighting back.
The Senate just PASSED a resolution to reverse Trump's disastrous tariffs on Canada.
Now, it's on the House to listen to the desperate pleas of American businesses, farmers, and families who can't afford Trump's costly price hikes.
Time to end this senseless trade war. 🇺🇸🇨🇦
Republicans are saying:
We gotta cut Medicaid & cancer research. Weather forecasting is donezo. VA staff, Social Security workers, & Forest Rangers? Pack your bags. Stopping measles is too expensive—so is stocking foodbanks!
BUT tax cuts for billionaires? Free. 🙄
Trump’s tariffs are a tax that families in WA state will pay on nearly everything they buy—at the grocery store, car dealership, or a local coffee shop.
Trump doesn't care if prices go up or small businesses close because it won’t affect him and his cabinet full of billionaires.
Trump doesn't give a damn about women's health care.
That has always been true—and his actions speak volumes more than his lies.
If the goal was to decimate U.S. leadership in biomedical innovation & fire scientists developing cutting-edge treatments—the Trump Administration is succeeding.
Trump & Elon are setting America back decades, undercutting research to discover lifesaving cures.
It's inexcusable.
NEW: The doctor behind breakthrough Parkinson’s research was among the scientists purged from the National Institutes of Health, the US’s leading medical research agency. www.wired.com/story/doctor...
Trump and Elon are ALREADY cutting Social Security.
When they fire thousands of staff, jam up the phone lines, and shutter offices...
When they make it nearly impossible for you to talk to a real person to get the benefits you're owed—THAT'S A BENEFIT CUT.
My friend @booker.senate.gov has been holding the Senate floor for over 24 hours—a new record—to make clear that this is NOT business as usual.
Americans are fed up with Republicans allowing Elon Musk to ransack government in service to billionaires.
We're with you, Senator Booker.
Forcing out 20,000 employees at HHS & shuttering agencies will jeopardize Americans’ health care and put lives at risk.
I'm demanding answers and transparency from Trump & RFK Jr. about these cuts & what they mean for people’s health.
