My Republican colleague justified his vote to let the Senators who were investigated after January 6th give themselves kickbacks worth millions of dollars by suggesting they would be too ashamed to claim that money. Wouldn’t you say, shame is dead in DC?

We celebrated the return of Congress with a 7 hour Rules meeting (one hour for each week of Speaker Johnson’s vacation). It could have been longer, but my Republican colleagues were absent for most of our meeting - apparently under instructions not to engage.

Babies need to eat even if DC politicians are too busy playing partisan games or refusing to come to work instead of ending a government shutdown. I introduced an amendment to make WIC a mandatory funding program, to guarantee no baby goes hungry. Every Republican in the Rules Committee voted no.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social are trying to amend the Senate’s funding bill to protect Americans’ healthcare and take out the poison pills. @houserepublicans.bsky.social can’t even bother to show up to debate it.

Our @houserepublicans.bsky.social colleagues skipped town after refusing to extend the ACA subsidies. I asked @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social if that time could’ve been used to reverse the Trump tariffs and lower costs for Americans.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social are here to work to save healthcare for millions of Americans. Our Republican colleagues haven't shown up to work in two months to extend ACA tax credits, but have had no problem passing billionaire tax cuts this summer. The difference couldn't be more stark.

It’s been a wild week. Here’s what you need to know: The current CR would shut the government down again next week. Democrats offered a solution to reopen the government and keep healthcare affordable for 24 million Americans through the next year.

I’m at the Delco emergency food drive. The White House may not get it, but Delco does! People started lining up to drop off food at 7 a.m. The drive is open at 1797 Sproul Road from 9 a.m. - 12 p.m. today. Neighbors helping neighbors.
