The more Americans learn about Trump’s Big Ugly Bill, the more they hate it. We’re forcing GOP to read the bill in its entirety, so Americans get the facts. You can tune in to @c-span.bsky.social now to see this bill exposed for what it is: A giveaway to special interests at your expense.
Republicans voted to advance a shameful 1,000 page bill to explode the national debt & rip away Medicaid from millions of Americans in order to give bigger tax windfalls to billionaires. We're making them read every word of this unpopular bill on the Senate floor. Starting now.
We need responsible, forward-looking investments in America’s future. Instead, the Trump-Republican budget gives handouts to old-money interests & outdated industries at the expense of everyday Americans. That’s not gonna lower prices, nor will it help America outcompete others.
If Trump and Republicans are really eliminating fraud and abuse in Medicaid why not invest the savings back into the program to improve health care for those still in it instead of blowing it on billionaire tax cuts?
The big, shameful Republican budget would make health insurance more expensive, bureaucratic, & difficult to obtain. People without insurance will still get sick & hospitals will have to treat them in emergency rooms. This bill is a prescription for higher health costs for all.
Glad to see fed court continue to put the brakes on the Trump Admin’s illegal attempt to shutter the Job Corps program. The fight is far from over. We’re continuing bipartisan effort to #SaveJobCorps & preserve opportunities for all.
AI is rapidly evolving & regulations must evolve with it to keep pace. The Republican budget bill would strip states of their right to regulate AI at the state level and protect their citizens from the misuse of artificial intelligence. This GOP provision should be stripped.
The Republican budget would rip affordable health coverage from millions & trigger enormous cuts to Medicaid, restricting people’s access to affordable health assistance when they need it most.
I created the CFPB's Office of Servicemember Affairs to shield our troops from fraud & go after scammers that targeted military families. The Trump Admin. is abandoning this post & leaving U.S. forces & veterans more vulnerable to exploitation.
Trump Admin is failing to stop hundreds of thousands of U.S. firearms smuggled into Mexico in vehicles each year. That fuels crime & drug trade. AG Bondi saying "our borders are closed” doesn’t cut it. It’s time for the AG & Trump to actually stop gun trafficking.
The cyber threat from Iran & affiliated hackers is rising. We must strengthen U.S. cyber defenses, but the Trump Admin is cutting cyber staff & budgets. The Trump Admin should reverse course, rehire cyber talent, & put American security first.
We need to get machineguns out of the hands of criminals. Instead, the Trump Admin walked away from a ban on 'forced-reset triggers,' which increase the killing force of semi-automatic rifles. This puts profits over people & increases likelihood of mass-shootings.
Before kicking 16 million Americans off their health insurance to give massive tax breaks to billionaires, Republicans should consult with their doctors. Across the U.S., health care workers are warning about disastrous consequences of Trump’s so-called Big Beautiful Bill.
