No one should have their hard-earned wages, tax refunds, or Social Security seized. But that's exactly what Trump and the WWE Secretary want to do. I'm teaming up with @booker.senate.gov & @warren.senate.gov on a bill to end administrative garnishment and stand up for student borrowers.

The Ending Administrative Wage Garnishment Act

Donald Trump's big, ugly bill would make people hungrier, poorer, and sicker. Republicans have lost the plot and they know their bill is unpopular. They should listen to their constituents and oppose this cruel and harmful budget scam.

‘They have lost the plot and the plot is the people’: @ayannapressley.bsky.social joins “The Weeknight” to discuss Republicans' proposed cuts to critical programs like Medicaid.

Today, every single @energycommerce.bsky.social Democrat voted to protect Medicaid, Planned Parenthood, and the Affordable Care Act. For 26 hours, our Members fought Republicans' effort to gut reproductive health care. As the GOP forces this bill to the House Floor, our fight continues.

Right now, Energy & Commerce Committee Republicans are trying to force through cuts to Medicaid, "defund" Planned Parenthood, and attack reproductive care. Co-Chairs @degette.house.gov and @pressley.house.gov are proud to join @energycommerce.bsky.social in saying NO WAY. Read our full statement👇

This is the cruelty of abortion bans on full display. This is not “pro-woman,” “pro-life,” or “pro-family,” this is inhumanity. Adriana Smith, we fight for you. Read more 👇.

RFC's statement on the tragic case of Adriana Smith, a 30-year-old Georgia mother who was declared brain dead in February and forcibly remains on life support due to the state’s abortion ban.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMay 16(source)

Emory hospital says the Georgia abortion ban requires she stay on life support until delivery, though it has been nearly 3 months. Horrifying. Devastating. Unacceptable.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMay 16(source)

Adriana Smith should be here with her 5-year-old son. Her severe headaches were dismissed and at 9 weeks pregnant she was declared brain dead, the result of blood clots. Her family visits her constantly. Her son asks when she’ll wake up.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMay 16(source)

Republicans just failed to pass their big, ugly bill that would rip food and healthcare away from people out of the Budget Committee. We won’t let up. This bill is not an inevitability. We can stop this and save lives.

Birthright citizenship in America is exactly that — a birthright recognized by the Constitution for over a century. Trump's attacks are blatantly unconstitutional & the Supreme Court must uphold the law.

Breaking News: The Supreme Court seemed troubled by President Trump’s order to end birthright citizenship and torn over a related question of judges’ authority.

The Daily Table has been an essential organization that helped folks access nutritious low-cost groceries & kept families fed. I’m devastated that they are closing their doors and grateful for their 10 years of service to our neighbors.

Congresswoman @pressley.house.gov asks us to imagine a future where everyone who needs health care can get it. “I’m just audacious enough to believe that we can #ProtectMedicaid and have care, not cuts… The budget proposal is cruel. The cruelty is the point.”

Thank you @pressley.house.gov for continuously speaking out against cuts to SNAP! SNAP is essential for families and individuals in MA and nationwide.

Republicans’ reconciliation bill would gut SNAP & increase food insecurity in the #MA7 & nationwide. I asked my GOP colleagues if any of them are willing to vote NO and make sure that children, people with disabilities, & veterans don’t go hungry. Their silence was deafening.
