The reckless House Republican budget is a complete betrayal of working-class and middle-class Americans who want government to lower prices. Instead, Republicans in Congress are scheming to cut Medicaid and funnel tax breaks to their billionaire donors and giant corporations.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 25(source)

House Republicans intend to bring their budget for a vote today. They want to cut Medicaid by $880 billion, cut SNAP by $230 billion, and add $4 trillion to the deficit — all to provide a massive tax break to billionaires. I will stand up for Minnesota and vote NO on this damaging GOP plan.

As we mark three years since Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine, the U.S. should be standing strong with Ukraine and our democratic allies in Europe. Ukraine has a right to sovereignty, and Ukrainians should be able to live life freely without fear of violent attacks.

Today I joined UMN President Cunningham and business leaders in St. Paul for the first National Security Research & Innovation Day. Investments in research and workforce are vital to our national and economic security — and have the bipartisan support of Minnesota's Congressional delegation.

For almost 250 years, USPS has provided critical mail delivery ranging from letters to loved ones to prescriptions and social security payments. I have zero confidence in the ability of this White House to handle six-day deliveries across the country. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Trump expected to take control of USPS, fire postal board, officials say

The move threatens to upend trillions of dollars in e-commerce business and the 250-year-old Postal Service.

I commend the 14 Republican Minnesota Legislators who recognize the damage the U.S. House GOP budget would cause. It’s wrong to cut Medicaid — a healthcare lifeline for over a million Minnesotans with disabilities, seniors, and children — to give more tax breaks to billionaires like Elon Musk.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 24(source)

The Republican budget makes an $880 billion cut to Medicaid. In Minnesota, 31% of kids and 34% of new moms and their babies depend on Medicaid. I'll fight this and any other budget proposal that takes away health care from kids, parents, seniors, and people with disabilities.

President Trump has fired her without cause. In Admiral Franchetti, I see only hard work, dedication, and the experience needed to serve as the Chief of Naval Operations.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 22(source)

In addition to the firing of General Charles Q. Brown Jr., I am shocked at President Trump’s decision to dismiss Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations. Admiral Franchetti earned her stars through her forty years of distinguished service to our nation.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 22(source)

General Charles Q. Brown Jr. has honorably served our nation for over forty years. I am appalled by President Trump’s decision to fire him from his position as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Just so everybody is clear on Republican priorities: We put up an amendment to make sure nobody making over $500 million gets a tax cut. Republicans voted against it.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 21(source)

Republicans in Washington are coming for Medicaid. Access to health care is essential. I will never stop fighting to protect this lifeline for seniors, children, and families.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 20(source)

President Trump is wrongfully firing Minnesotans serving the American public, from the Park Service to the VA. These reckless cuts don’t just impact our neighbors who've been laid off — they impact critical services for all of us.

Dozens of Minnesota federal workers fired in latest cuts, with no severance

The Minnesota Star Tribune talked to roughly two dozen workers who all said they were not the only ones in their departments to be cut.

President Trump and House Republicans want to cut Medicaid and food assistance for millions of seniors, children, and families — all to cut taxes for billionaires. Despite these huge cuts, their plan still increases the Debt by $3 trillion. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 19(source)

President Trump is lying. Ukraine did not start this war. We all watched in horror as Putin launched the illegal full-scale invasion of Ukraine. President Trump’s whitewash cannot change the fact that the Russian military has killed thousands of innocent Ukrainian civilians.

Trump says Ukraine 'should have never started' war in Ukraine

Trump made the remark while deriding Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, whose country was invaded by Russia in February 2022.

After cheering on Elon Musk's draconian cuts, Republican Senators now want to shield their states from the consequences of their inaction. Federal funding for me, but not for thee. It doesn't work like that. Time for Republicans to get serious and take back the power of the purse.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 19(source)

Firing probationary DoD employees will shift the burden of their work to uniformed personnel or more expensive military contractors, making our military less efficient. The Department of Defense needs major reform. This isn't the way to do it. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Defense Department firings expected to start soon, officials say

Pentagon agencies were told to submit lists of probationary employees after members of Elon Musk’s DOGE arrived, people familiar with the matter said.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 18(source)

Working families expect the president to work with Congress to protect Social Security and Medicaid, ensure a fair tax code, and protect workers’ rights and safety while on the job.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 18(source)

Today at a town hall with local union members I heard concerns about the reckless and illegal actions by President Trump and Elon Musk to raid agencies providing services and projects that Americans rely on to pay for more tax cuts for billionaires.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govFeb 18(source)

Donald Trump has fired hundreds of FAA employees since taking office, including several hundred on Friday alone. This reckless approach to the security of our skies is wreaking havoc and endangering the safety of American air travelers.
