BREAKING: NEW VIDEO
Are you tired of politicians being bought up by billionaires like they’re just another vacation home? Join us in the fight to end Citizens United!

We all must come together to reject this egregious waste of taxpayer dollars.
While more than half of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, Trump proposed an absurd $1.5 TRILLION war budget.
A 42% increase over last year’s already ridiculously bloated budget.
More than the next 34 countries combined.
More than the height of military spending during World War II.
Do you have a private jet?
No? Well, last year’s Republican Budget Bill made private jets tax deductible. When you’re filing your taxes this year, just remember who Trump and Congressional Republicans are looking out for.
Trump’s desired $1.5 trillion dollar war budget would cost more than the peak of World War II. Whether you believe we should prioritize actually helping Americans or you’re against adding trillions to the national debt, we must all come together to call out this absurdity.
Even Fox News is blaming Trump and his war in Iran for rising inflation.
Republican politicians campaigned on lowering costs. They now control the House, Senate, and White House. But from groceries, to gas, to housing, things are only getting worse.
We need to shift our focus from foreign wars to making life more affordable!
But in early 2025, Trump took a sledgehammer to USAID, crushing our humanitarian efforts & diplomatic influence on the world stage. I had a great discussion with Allison McManus with @americanprogress.bsky.social on the importance of USAID and what comes next.
USAID’s funding was only about 0.5% of our total budget, yet its impact has been felt around the world. It provides health and education to some of the most impoverished people on the planet, saving millions of lives every year.
So much for being the "champion of U.S. Steel."
While more than half of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, Trump is trying to increase the war budget by a mind-boggling 42% to $1.5 TRILLION.
This is an insult to the American people.
My joint statement with @repilhan.bsky.social on Trump’s $1.5 trillion war budget request.
Trump proposed an absurd $1.5 TRILLION war budget. This is a 42% increase over last year’s already ridiculously bloated budget.
As a Member of the Appropriations Committee and Co-Chair of the Defense Spending Reduction Caucus, I will be voting HELL NO if this is introduced in the House.
I wonder what she's trying to hide?
Last night’s victories in Wisconsin up and down the ballot prove once again that Wisconsinites are tired of rising costs and ready for change!
-Eliminate the National Endowment for Democracy
-Cut $5 billion from the National Institutes of Health
-Eliminate the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
AND add trillions of dollars to the national debt over the next decade. (3/3)
-Cancel $15 billion for clean energy
-Cut $2.5 billion for clean drinking water
-Eliminate $1.6 billion for youth job training
-Cut $3.5 billion from the Labor Department
-Eliminate $395 million for senior employment
-Eliminate $775 million in food assistance grants (2/3)
Trump wants a $1.5 TRILLION war budget, 42% more than last year’s and more than the next 34 countries combined. And to help foot the bill, here's just some of what he plans to cut:
-Cut the EPA budget by half
-Cut $10.7 billion for housing
-Cut $8.5 billion for K-12 programs (1/3)
Trump’s proposal to increase the war budget by over 40% with no justification would be the most egregious waste of taxpayer dollars I have ever seen.
