As House Republicans move to pass Trump's "Big Ugly Bill," I stand with my @housedemocrats.bsky.social colleagues fighting for Americans' access to healthcare and nutrition assistance.
You deserve better.

Trump continues to capitulate to Russia and abandon our allies in Europe. This is a shameful threat to democracy.
Reposted byRepresentative Deborah Ross
DWC Members demanded over and over and over that Republicans remove all cuts to Medicaid and SNAP from the Big Ugly Bill.
Republicans rejected it.
The headlines illustrate the point. This bill is great for billionaires and terrible for everyone else.
If Republicans pass their bill gutting Medicaid, rural hospitals in North Carolina will be forced to close, putting the lives of North Carolinians in danger.
We can't let that happen.
Senate Republicans passed their terrible budget bill today, so I'm back in D.C. fighting for North Carolinians and everyone who would be hurt by this cruel transfer of wealth from everyday Americans to the ultra rich.
Trump said he'd end this war on day one, but the year is halfway through and Russia is only getting more aggressive.
Trump needs to stand with Ukraine by finally putting pressure on Russia.
Pell Grants help low- to moderate-income students pay for college tuition.
But Republican's Big Ugly Bill could impact the 200,000 North Carolina students who rely on Pell Grants, putting their ability to finish school and their futures at risk.
🚨 It's a complete disgrace that the Senate passed this harmful bill. It will put people's lives and livelihoods in jeopardy.
Senate Democrats and a few Republicans stood up for the American people for 24+ hours.
We will fight hard in the House to prevent this garbage from becoming law.
I'm voting NO on the Republicans' 'Big Ugly Bill' because it would harm our most at risk in NC02.
Healthcare and food assistance are at risk, and Wake County deserves better.

At recent town hall meetings, @repbonamici.bsky.social heard from Oregonians loud and clear: they're outraged by GOP's Medicaid cuts.
On today's Democratic Daily Download, she shares how Democrats are doing everything we can to fight these irresponsible and immoral Medicaid cuts.
This is a big week in Congress. Republicans are pushing their bill to
- kick 16 million people off healthcare
- implement the largest ever cut to nutrition assistance
- give billionaires massive tax breaks
- cut clean energy investments
- add over $4 trillion to our debt
I'm adamantly voting no.
Republicans can debate this budget for as long as they want.
Increasing the deficit by trillions of dollars to pay for billionaire tax breaks, cuts to SNAP, and cuts to Medicaid will never be good.
North Carolina businesses are still dealing with the fallout from Trump's reckless tariffs, facing unpredictable costs and constant price hikes.
Our community businesses deserve stability from those in power.
After Hurricane Helene, FEMA helped save people and rebuild communities in Western NC.
Cutting FEMA puts lives at risk. I spoke in defense of FEMA on the House floor and urged Trump to keep his promise to help North Carolinians rebuild and recover.
My first week in office, I watched democracy come under attack. Now, I'm displaying a plaque to honor the officers who protected the Capitol on January 6th.
I join my colleagues calling on Speaker Johnson to obey the law and honor the officers who defended us.
SCOTUS has weakened our system of checks and balances & handed Trump and his administration a blank check to violate the Constitution.
We will not be deterred. We will not stop mounting legal challenges against this lawless administration.
Trump's reckless tariffs are even worse for our country than we thought, and this is only the beginning.
He needs to focus on bringing down prices, not waging reckless trade wars.
This is another blow to women's healthcare, leaving women in SC who rely on Medicaid without access to birth control, cancer screenings, STI testing and more.
This will lead to worse care for women across the country. We'll keep fighting these attacks on women's healthcare.
Republican cuts to Medicaid could shutter rural hospitals and take healthcare from more than 600,000 North Carolinians.
I joined @foushee.house.gov, @adams.house.gov, and Rep. Don Davis in calling on Senate Leader Thune to remove Medicaid cuts from the budget bill.
