This year's Military Construction & Veterans Affairs Appropriations bill is a step toward enacting the Project 2025 goal of privatizing the VA. This bill betrays our veterans, including women and LGBTQI+ veterans who would be denied access to medically necessary healthcare. youtu.be/UL57bmYhFxk

Let's not forget that nearly every House Republican voted to take healthcare away from 16 million Americans and take food from hungry people—all to pay for a tax cut for their billionaire buddies.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJun 10(source)

Under the Republican budget bill, the poor will get poorer and the rich will get richer. We should lower taxes for working-class people and make sure the rich pay their fair share.

Rep. Mark Pocan@pocan.house.govJun 9(source)

Last month House Republicans voted to rip healthcare away from 16 million Americans. That's cruel and unhinged. On this week's throwback #MagicMonday, I use a magic trick to explain why everyone deserves healthcare.

It's not easy to describe what is happening in Gaza. The scale of death, destruction, and suffering is unimaginable. ramirez.house.gov 's Block the Bombs Act will make sure that any American-made weapons that could be used offensively by Israel have to be approved by Congress.

Today is National Gun Violence Awareness Day. We #WearOrange to remember the victims of gun violence. It’s time for my colleagues on the other side of the aisle to grow a spine and pass commonsense gun safety laws.

Trump threatens to take away Elon’s government contracts

The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts. I was always surprised that Biden didn’t do it!

POCAN: You said the president supports the big bill passed out the House. You also said the president doesn't support cutting Medicare. VOUGHT: Correct POCAN: In the bill, there's a $500b cut that gets triggered to Medicare. You might want to take a look at that provision.

POCAN: Is the federal govt currently spending less this year than it did last year? VOUGHT: No, it's not POCAN: Part of that is because you've sent us a recession package worth $9b that goes after Big Bird and Cookie Monster, but you've added $200b to Defense and Homeland Security.

Russ Vought calling the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office wrong is like failing the test and blaming the calculator. The numbers don’t lie — he just doesn’t like them. The Republican Budget Bill will increase the deficit by trillions.
