"[Trump's] the one holding back on the number one program that keeps kids out of poverty in this country." @pocan.house.gov tells @deanobeidallah.bsky.social that the money is there to feed the 40 million people on SNAP; Trump just refuses to release it.

Halloween got your wallet a little spooked? You’re not alone! It’s not a trick, Trump’s tariff taxes made Halloween much more expensive this year!

GREAT NEWS! Thanks to Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul, Wisconsin joined 25 states to sue Trump, and force him to release SNAP contingency funds. If they don’t pay, we’ll see them in court!

The Pentagon has NEVER passed an audit. If we’re serious about tackling government waste, that’s where we start. I spoke with Dylan Hedtler-Gaudette from @pogo.org about how defense contractors are ripping us off and how we can hold them accountable to protect our tax dollars.

It’s Medicare Open Enrollment season. Don’t get fooled by the flashy commercials from Medicare Advantage companies. A new report from the Kaiser Family Foundation shows that traditional Medicare beneficiaries have access to TWICE as many doctors! Remember, only Medicare is Medicare.
Medicare Advantage Enrollees Have Access to About Half of the Physicians Available to Traditional Medicare Beneficiaries | KFF
Medicare Advantage enrollees were in a plan that included just under half (48%) of all physicians available to traditional Medicare beneficiaries in their area in 2022, on average. The limitations of ...

I'm outside what used to be the East Wing. For visual learners, its destruction is a perfect demonstration of what Trump is doing to our country. An update on the White House demolition.

Let’s be clear: The @usdagov.bsky.social has the money and the authority to pay for SNAP benefits. If they don’t, it will be because they chose to let Americans go hungry to score political points.

Today, I joined my friends @govevers.wisconsin.gov, @baldwin.senate.gov, and @repgwenmoore.bsky.social to discuss how nearly every Wisconsinite will see higher healthcare costs if the Affordable Care Act tax credits expire. We’re all fighting to make your healthcare more affordable!

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent (worth more than half a billion dollars) claims he’s a soybean farmer and says he’s felt their pain too. Here’s my response. 🙄

This is bad, but Democrats are fighting like hell to make sure you don’t have to pay these massively increased costs.

BREAKING: According to new data from the Wisconsin OCI, if Republicans fail to extend enhanced Affordable Care Act tax credits, Wisconsinites are going to pay hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands more dollars a year for their healthcare coverage. This is really bad, folks.

It’s time for House Republicans to get back to DC next week, reopen the damn government, and prevent healthcare costs from soaring. I wonder if they will…

COURT WIN! A federal court unanimously ruled against the Trump administration’s attempt to delay decisions on veterans’ claims that they were unfairly denied service-related benefits. A win for our veterans and the American people!
