Breaking down 3 myths about the government shutdown with @mcbride.house.gov (she still can't find the Republicans on the House side).

🚨 It’s Mythbusters time. I asked my Democratic colleagues to help me clear up the shutdown misinformation being spread by Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @pelosi.house.gov @frost.house.gov @raskin.house.gov @kim.senate.gov

2/ In Delaware, that means over 20,000 of our neighbors will lose critical support that helps families make ends meet and keep food on the table.Cruelty knows no bounds in this administration.

1/ Funding for WIC is running out because of the government shutdown. American women and children will lose food assistance as a direct result of Republicans’ partisan policies.

‼️ It’s Day 9 of the Trump Shutdown.‼️ @mcbride.house.gov and I have updates on the latest.

Rep. Ted Lieu@reptedlieu.bsky.socialOct 8(source)

We are in the second week of the Republican shutdown. Where are House Republicans? On vacation. Went looking around the Capitol to see if any Republicans had the common sense to come back. Featuring @mcbride.house.gov.

2/ These cuts threaten Delaware jobs, raise energy costs for working families, and set us back in the fight for affordable, reliable power.

Delaware clean energy projects in jeopardy from Trump cuts of projects in blue states

This announcement comes days after the federal government shut down on Oct. 1.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govOct 6(source)

1/ Amid a government shutdown, Donald Trump is seeking political revenge by canceling investments in projects that would lower energy costs in Delaware and across the country.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govOct 6(source)

2/ Still, Trump’s crooks and cronies are encouraging him to defy a federal ruling that blocked this abuse of power. If Donald Trump cared about law and order, he’d stop acting like the law doesn’t apply to him.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govOct 6(source)

1/ Donald Trump is attempting to deploy the National Guard to Portland and Chicago—using members of our military as political pawns—under the false pretense that these cities are war zones. This. Is. A. Lie.

Grateful to the Rotary Club of Wilmington for hosting me at their weekly meeting for a discussion about my first nine months in Congress, including our efforts to address the health care crisis and reopen the government.

Hear directly from my constituent Jan—a small business owner and cancer survivor—on what this shutdown means for Delawareans’ health care: "Lives are on the line." Republicans must work with us to reopen the government and fix the health care crisis they created that's impacting people NOW.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govOct 2(source)

Republicans’ refusal to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits means Delawareans could soon face massive premium hikes. My Democratic colleagues and I will continue to stand together to protect health care, lower costs, and reopen the government.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans have shut down the government. I am working to stop the shutdown and save Delawareans’ health care. Do you have questions about what the shutdown means for you? Our office is here to help. Go to mcbride.house.gov for assistance.

I wish all who are observing Yom Kippur in Delaware and across the country a meaningful and easy fast. May this be a time of peace, reflection, and renewal. G’mar Chatimah Tovah!

An update now that Republicans have shut the government down: there’s absolutely no reason they can’t do their jobs and come to the table to negotiate a deal. Democrats are ready—and we’ll keep holding the line for people’s health care and to get the government reopened.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govSep 30(source)

Donald Trump is in over his head. He doesn't understand what's at stake. He doesn't understand the ACA. He doesn't understand Medicaid. While Republicans vacation with a shutdown looming, House Democrats are here to hold the line for the American people.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govSep 30(source)

I went searching for Republicans in the Capitol. Turns out they’re not in Washington to keep the government open or protect your health care.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride@mcbride.house.govSep 30(source)

2/ Why? Because Donald Trump and his party refuse to negotiate a deal to fix the health care cuts they created—cuts that will leave millions of Americans without health care. Don’t let them spin it otherwise.
