In today’s Democratic Daily Download, @amo.house.gov calls out Republicans for cutting millions of Americans’ health insurance, food assistance and access to higher education, while driving energy costs through the roof.

Trump and republicans are gambling with people’s lives. Their ‘Big Ugly Bill’ guts Medicaid, stripping health care from millions. The human cost could be deadly.

The Trump administration has decided to push sweeping deregulations, threatening the safety of workers and protections for children. These quiet rollbacks speak volumes, our workers and kids deserve better. news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-...

Punching In: DOL’s Quiet Regulation Rollback Raises Eyebrows

The Department of Labor is rolling out plans to cut regulations and Trump’s pick to be the NLRB’s general counsel languishes.

Happy Independence Day! Today, we celebrate the hard-earned freedom and democracy we value as Americans, and we renew our commitment to protecting them for generations to come. 🇺🇸

The GOP passed the Big, Ugly Bill through Congress. It will cause 17M people to lose health insurance, 3M to lose food assistance, and it will add over $3T to the national debt. And they have the audacity to call the legislation "beautiful." bobbyscott.house.gov/media-center...

Just took to the House Floor to speak in support of a country where everyone can afford to live the good life. And in strong opposition to Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill that is devastating to everyday Americans. We will not be silenced. www.youtube.com/live/3pbFrch...

Important message from @NABTU who know that President Trump’s budget bill will stop energy projects from coming online, and threaten *one million* union jobs across America.

The Republicans' One Big, Ugly Bill is the largest Medicaid cut ever, and it takes health care away from 17 million Americans, including 322,984 Virginians. And it will make health care costs go up for everyone else. I am voting NO.

Congressman Bobby Scott@bobbyscott.house.govJul 1(source)

The Senate passed the GOP's Big, Ugly Billionaires' Bailout Bill. I am on my way back to Washington to vote against it and prevent 16 million people from being kicked off their health care.

On today’s Democratic Daily Download, @ramirez.house.gov lays out how Trump’s One Big, Ugly Bill will take health care and food assistance away from working families while rewarding billionaires with tax breaks that explode the deficit.

Currently on the State of the People Marathon to discuss the Republicans' Big, Ugly Bill. Their disastrous bill funds tax breaks for billionaires by slashing food assurance, education, and health care for 16 million people. www.youtube.com/live/uax8jmJ...

Congressional Republicans constantly say that we need to pass One Big Beautiful Bill—and make low-income families pay more for health care and groceries—to avoid raising taxes on families. But the tax cuts go far beyond the cost of extending the 2017 tax cuts for families

The Senate bill would make the bottom 40% of America, on avg, poorer It would take from the poor while giving to the rich This isn’t shared sacrifice where everyone tightens their belts. The poor have to tighten their belts while the rich loosen theirs Stunning graph from @budgetlab.bsky.social
