No, throwing a Great Gatsby-themed party at his gold-plated club while 42 million Americans lose their SNAP benefits isn’t President Trump’s "obligation," Speaker Johnson. It’s just careless.

Sen. @merkley.senate.gov reflects on last night’s Democratic victories—and how they stand in stark contrast to Trump’s growing authoritarian streak and attacks on struggling families.
Watch the full interview on Substack.

We’re in the longest government shutdown in American history because Republicans raised the cost of YOUR health care and are refusing to work with Democrats to fix it.
The Trump family crypto grift and the Binance pardon boil down to one thing: CORRUPTION.
Trump is profiting off the presidency every day, while leaving Americans out in the cold.
Trump is ending clean energy and opening pristine wilderness to drilling.
He's killing the planet and raising prices for YOUR family to line the pockets of fossil fuel oligarchs.
Climate chaos is the challenge of our time. If we don't move swiftly to renewables, we're cooked.
I went to the Senate floor to demand Trump release all of the SNAP benefits he’s cruelly withholding.
Republicans blocked me.
Health care costs are skyrocketing for 20 million Americans.
House Republicans can’t even be bothered to come to work.
Republicans need to come to the negotiating table and help fix the health care crisis THEY CREATED.

Reminder: Trump isn't choosing to fund SNAP—Democrats sued the Trump Administration to force him to fund SNAP so families wouldn't go hungry.
And Trump is still refusing to fund half of the program, continuing to use children and vulnerable families as bargaining chips.

Trump could end his government shutdown, fully fund SNAP, and prevent the drastic increase in health insurance costs for millions of Americans right NOW if he would just prioritize families over billionaires.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, under the direction of Dr. Oz, launched a database with incomplete and erroneous provider information, leaving Medicare beneficiaries in the lurch.
Ranking Member @merkley.senate.gov is demanding answers and calling for changes.
In Oregon, over 750,000 people depend on SNAP benefits—210,000 of them are children.
Trump is using food as a weapon against vulnerable families.
I went to the Senate floor to demand full SNAP benefits be released.
Republicans blocked me.
Trump is hell-bent on carrying out unconstitutional and unlawful strikes on Venezuela that are dangerously escalating tensions. Maduro is a brutal dictator, but that does not give Trump a blank check to pursue regime change.
Trump’s authoritarianism is here NOW, and I will keep ringing the alarm bells and fighting back! We cannot allow it to become entrenched.

🚨 ICE is abusing furloughs to basically end all Congressional and public oversight of their actions. No oversight as Trump tightens his authoritarian grip and harms our communities.
We can’t be silent—I’m ringing the alarm bells and fighting back!
Hope everyone has a happy and safe Halloween! 🎃
Trump is defying the law and every moral code, using food as a weapon to harm vulnerable families, including children and seniors, across the country who count on SNAP.
No other President would hurt American families in this way. Unbelievably wrong on every level.
This is a huge blow for independent reporting on China—Radio Free Asia is a vital news source. Xi must be celebrating Trump’s America abandoning its commitment to press freedom around the world. Just another way Trump is bending to China. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
I’m ringing the alarm bells on Trump’s crypto corruption!!
We need to pass my End Crypto Corruption Act to stop any elected official from setting up crypto scams.
