The same people in Congress who talk about how helping everyday Americans is too expensive never seem to feel the same about war.

Chat, are higher gas prices and a war in Iran considered winning?
Billionaire spending in federal elections has increased by more than 6,000 percent since the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision. We need to get big money out of politics and end Citizens United!
Religious freedom is literally in the First Amendment.
Muslims are part of America — full stop.
Those who promote this vile bigotry don’t belong in congress.
It wasn’t enough that Trump made our healthcare prices skyrocket with the Big Ugly Law, now he’s made gas prices go through the roof with his reckless war with Iran.
Happy International Women’s Day! I’ll always work to protect, advance, and celebrate women’s rights in America and around the world.
On this day in 1965, peaceful marchers in Selma, including my friend John Lewis, were beaten by state troopers for demanding the right to vote.
The violence of Bloody Sunday shocked the nation and helped lead to the passage of the Voting Rights Act just months later.
I’m tired of seeing seniors tricked into signing up for for-profit healthcare plans that they think are Medicare. The Save Medicare Act will put a stop to it.

I’ve been fighting for these basic checks and balances for years and will continue to defend our Constitution.
Today, I voted YES on the War Powers Resolution. The Constitution is clear: only Congress has the power to declare war.
The American people are tired of presidents abusing their power by spending billions of our taxpayer dollars on unnecessary wars without congressional approval.
I just voted to stop the war in Iran.

Let’s be clear: Medicare Advantage is not Medicare.
Medicare Advantage is private insurance that too often denies medically necessary care, restricts providers, and overcharges taxpayers by billions.
Seniors deserve transparency and access to the full benefits they've earned.
Trump is spending a BILLION dollars a day on an illegal war, while cutting Medicaid and food assistance for millions of Americans.
According to Trump and Congressional Republicans, money isn’t an issue for war, only for helping Americans survive.
Over the weekend, Donald Trump started a war with Iran. The same guy who is really, really upset he didn’t get a Nobel Peace Prize.
So much to unpack. For the latest episode of my podcast, I spoke with @mattduss.bsky.social with @cipolicy.bsky.social, an expert on foreign policy in the Middle East.
I’m reintroducing the Save Medicare Act with @khanna.house.gov and @schakowsky.house.gov, which will ban private insurers from using "Medicare" in their plans’ names. (2/2)
