Senate Republican's budget resolution would hand Elon Musk MORE power—when what we really need is to hold this unelected billionaire accountable for the damage he's already caused to American families & communities.

The only path forward to fund our government is a bipartisan one. It's where Congress works together to avoid a shutdown, stops the de facto DOGE shutdown that is already happening, & reasserts its authority to protect the funding our communities need.
It's unbelievably dangerous that Republicans want to elevate a conspiracy theorist like RFK Jr. to lead HHS—where he'll have power to oversee vaccine recommendations & insurance coverage, undermine important work at FDA, & derail lifesaving research.
Elon Musk is making big decisions about our country’s spending not just without Congress—but in SPITE of Congress.
If Musk really has nothing to hide, then he should leave his safe place on X and come before the full Senate Budget Committee to be accountable to the public.
Not only will Tulsi Gabbard not stand up to Trump & Musk and uphold our laws—she has a history of echoing Russian sentiment & siding with dictators.
Senate Republicans just confirmed her to a top intelligence role anyway.
Senate Republicans' partisan budget resolution would toss programs like SNAP and Medicaid into the woodchipper—all in service of passing tax giveaways for the wealthiest Americans.
We should not be cutting health care for working families to deliver massive tax breaks for billionaires.
Repost if you agree.
I'm walking into a major Budget Committee markup and I'll be voting NO against Senate Republicans' pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget blueprint today.
The latest EO ordering massive job cuts to federal agencies is yet another senseless move by two billionaires who have no clue what the federal government does or what it’s like for regular people who have to work every day for a living.
There will be devastating consequences if RFK Jr. is confirmed. Senate Republicans need to show some courage, show some conscience, and say NO to a vaccine denier becoming our highest-ranking health official.
I've met with many cabinet nominees across many admins, and my meeting with RFK Jr. was by far the most troubling.
He rattled off debunked conspiracy theories & lied to my face—denying his own statements he'd made on record. We cannot confirm an anti-vaxxer as Secretary of Health.
The problem right now is that Trump and Elon Musk are effectively shutting down the government—whichever parts they don’t like—all on their own, without any regard for the law.
Elon doesn't decide if we fund our public schools or replace lead pipes—Congress does.
Trump's illegal EO to freeze EPA funds has created mass chaos & confusion—& it's hurting communities that need access to clean drinking water & affordable clean energy.
I'm demanding that Zeldin follow the law and disburse this funding with no exceptions. thehill.com/policy/energ...
Trump's ham fisted tariffs will just mean more inflation and fewer jobs. The truth is there is really no good reason for us to be picking fights with trading partners and close allies like Canada.
Parents & teachers need to know what's working for students. We learn so much of that through IES’s independent, high quality research & data.
But now a billionaire is shutting down this research and keeping parents in the dark—that's WRONG, and it's bad for students. www.npr.org/2025/02/10/n...
Musk's illegal & arbitrary cuts to NIH will dismantle biomedical research in America as we know it. Labs will shut down. Sick kids won't get the treatment they need.
Just because Elon doesn’t understand indirect costs doesn’t mean Americans should pay the price with their lives.
CFPB protects YOU! It has returned billions of dollars to working Americans who big banks and mega corporations cheated. Getting rid of it means more money in the pockets of billionaires—so it's no surprise the richest man in the world is leading the charge. www.cnn.com/2025/02/09/b...
Hard-working people who do so much for our country are being threatened with arbitrary layoffs because of the whims of the richest man in the world.
INCLUDING nuclear safety engineers at Hanford. How does that leave anyone better off?
Congress is meant to be a check on Presidential abuse of power—it’s the way our democratic system of checks & balances works.
It’s time for Republicans to say “enough” and stand with the people they represent and against the corruption & lawlessness we’ve seen from Trump & Elon.
Republicans' budget blueprint shows they are serious about eliminating the Department of Ed, cutting Medicaid and Medicare, and increasing wait times for veterans by slashing the VA. They are blindly following Elon Musk's lead rather than the American people's needs.
We have a new statement from CBPP President @sharonparrott.bsky.social on Senate Budget Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham’s proposed budget resolution, which presents an opaque and troubling plan with policy trade-offs that are purposely unclear: www.cbpp.org/press/statem...
