This is Dilletta.
She’s from the Bronx.
And you need to watch her heartbreaking story about how her son’s life is at risk from the cuts to Medicaid that Trump and the Republicans are trying to make to give tax cuts to their billionaires' club.
Democrats won't stand for it.
If you can’t get the Social Security you earned because Trump's cutting Social Security staff—that’s a benefits cut
If you can’t get answers to your questions or get an issue resolved because no one can take your call—that’s a benefits cut
Dems are fighting for Social Security
In a little over one month—Trump, Musk, and Republicans have set in motion the greatest transfer of wealth in favor of billionaires we have seen in modern times.
Nothing Trump says during his address tomorrow will change that fact.
Democrats are fighting for you.
Trump is pillaging your wallets and wrecking your 401k with his misguided tariffs to give tax cuts to his billionaires’ club.
Democrats will not stop fighting for you, for our economy, for your retirement.
Our hearts break for them.
I'm inspired by their families' perseverance and resolve to keep fighting to bring all the hostages home now.
It is my profound honor to welcome Orna Neutra and Ruby Chen to the Capitol tomorrow.
Both Omer Neutra and Itay Chen, their respective children, were murdered and taken hostage by Hamas on October 7.
Tomorrow, I’m bringing seven incredible New Yorkers to the U.S. Capitol to tell the story of what’s under threat by Trump’s agenda:
Medicaid beneficiaries. Disabled veterans fired from the VA. Fired USDA workers. Home health care workers.
Democrats are fighting back.
The Trump administration is announcing massive cuts to Social Security staff—more than 7,000 people.
Elon Musk is calling Social Security the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.
They’re attacking Social Security, and Democrats are going to fight back for the American people.
Tell the 80 million Americans who worked hard to earn Social Security and depend on their benefits that it’s a Ponzi scheme.
Democrats will fight tooth and nail to protect Social Security.
Hazel Dukes was an icon to so many New Yorkers. Head of the NAACP New York State Conference, she fought so hard for civil rights and the causes she believed in. I’m praying for Hazel, her family, and everyone who knew and loved her.

Republicans are trying to gut Medicaid so they can give tax breaks to their billionaire buddies.
I spoke with thousands of New Yorkers worried about Republicans’ cuts to Medicaid.
These New Yorkers were so energized, and we’re ready to fight side-by-side for health care.
I talked with thousands of New Yorkers worried about the attacks from Republicans on Medicaid.
Health care advocates. Union members. Concerned New Yorkers from across our state.
I'm fighting for them. And we talked together about how to organize to make Americans' voices heard.
Brooklyn's Elizabeth Gloucester was one of the wealthiest Black women of her time
She was a business owner, a brave abolitionist, a philanthropist who raised money for the Colored Orphan Asylum
She broke barriers and inspired generations to come!
