This isn’t over yet. Spread the word. Republicans' Big, Beautiful Bill would: — Kick 16 million off their health care — Close 1 out of 4 nursing homes — Hike your energy bills — Add at least $4 trillion to the national debt It’s a gift to the rich and a disaster for families.
Tina Smith@smith.senate.govJun 28(source)
If Republicans won’t fix the Big, Beautiful Bill, we’ll offer amendments to fix it ourselves. They will have every opportunity to join us and save peoples’ health care.

I was so grateful to be with Melissa and Mark Hortman’s families and so many Minnesotans yesterday at the State Capitol to honor them. Today I am watching with love from afar in Washington, present in spirit. May they rest in peace and may their memories bless us all.

It’s Saturday. The day Senate Republicans try to figure out how to take away Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for billionaires, but hope nobody notices. News Flash: people will notice.

Not that he had much respect for the supposedly co-equal branch of the Judiciary in the first place…

Justice Sotomayor’s dissent in today’s birthright citizenship case is a wake up call for all of us: “No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates”   SCOTUS is essentially deciding to look the other way as Trump infringes on our rights and breaks our laws.

Sgt. Rodriguez was an exemplary public servant. Her dedication to keeping Minnesotans safe, and her commitment to helping people find a place to live was transformative. She helped to make our state a better place.    May her memory be a blessing.

Authorities say a woman who died after going missing in the waters of White Bear Lake on Sunday afternoon was a Metro Transit police sergeant. Beverly Rodriguez joined Metro Transit police in 2017 and led its Homeless Action Team.

It’s late, and I’m trying every way I know how to get home tomorrow to honor them as they lie in state in the Rotunda of the State Capitol. I’m thinking about how much they loved each other and their family, and how much they loved Minnesota and our country. That’s inspiration for all of us.

Two weeks ago, my friend and Minnesota Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark were taken from us in an awful act of political violence. Today, the United States Senate unanimously supported a resolution honoring Melissa and Mark’s life and work.

So the people that Republicans deem worthy enough to keep their health insurance at all are now also going to be told by the government where they can and can’t go to get birth control and pap smears and cancer screenings? Got it. Gross.

Breaking: WASHINGTON (AP) - Supreme Court sides with South Carolina in ruling allowing states to cut off Medicaid funding to Planned Parenthood.

Elizabeth Warren@warren.senate.govJun 25(source)
Oh so Senate Republicans ADMIT that the Big Beautiful Bill cuts Medicaid. Their bill effectively defunds rural hospitals. Some simple math: $15 billion does not plug a nearly $1 trillion hole. It doesn't add up! This is a self-inflicted wound and this band-aid won't heal it.
Tina Smith@smith.senate.govJun 26(source)
Despicable. Thousands of people rely on Planned Parenthood for cancer screenings and pap smears, STI testing, and so many more essential services. Women should not be penalized for needing reproductive health care.

They’re citing a think tank that’s actively gutting child labor laws… I’ll stick to trusting the CBO (which clearly states the big, beautiful bill is a giant pile of bullshit)
It’s free to cite the CBO—which has been dead wrong on every major prediction this century—but Senator Smith’s vote against our bill will cost the average MN family $2,360 per year in additional taxes. thefga.org/research/scori…

They won’t cut spending for things like Trump’s flights to his golf courses and resorts every weekend, but they’ll trip over themselves to cut spending on things poor people rely on like Medicaid and food stamps.
Tina Smith@smith.senate.govJun 25(source)
The news cycle is terrible because I read some horrific headline about what’s going on in the world, and then remember that while that’s happening, Republicans are ALSO taking health care and food stamps away from millions of Americans who need it.
