House Republicans tried to jam through the GOP Tax Scam in the dark of night – but House Democrats are fighting back to expose and stop this disastrous bill. @scanlon.house.gov explains why Americans can’t afford these devastating cuts to health care and food assistance.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 21(source)

Unconscionable. They're trying to rip SNAP benefits away from families struggling to afford groceries in order to provide the largest tax break in American history to billionaires. House Democrats are prepared to fight back for as long as it takes.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 21(source)

House Republicans are attempting to give millionaires & billionaires the biggest government handout EVER—and they want working families to foot the bill.

Medicaid cuts threaten access to care for ALL Americans. Cuts to Medicaid will push hospitals, nursing homes, and health clinics into bankruptcy. When those places close, it's going to be harder for everyone else to get health care.

Fiscal responsibility ≠ Adding $3.8 trillion to the deficit

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 21(source)

Heartbroken to hear of the passing of my friend and colleague, Gerry Connolly. Gerry was a passionate public servant and a fierce advocate for good governance. My prayers are with his loved ones. May he rest in peace.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 21(source)

Sloppy and disingenuous. House Republicans were too busy these past months lying about whether they were cutting Medicaid to finish drafting critical parts of their bill.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 21(source)

House Republicans want to play Reverse Robin Hood and cut essential programs for the poorest 10% of Americans to give tax cuts to the richest 10%.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 20(source)

House Republicans are opening DC’s hottest new nightclub in the Rules Committee tonight. If they want to pass these disastrous cuts in the dark, Democrats will make them dance in the light. See you at 1 a.m.!

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 19(source)

If House Republicans want to wait until 1 a.m. Wednesday to reveal their ‘One Big BS Bill,’ we'll be there to expose that they are paying for billionaire tax cuts by gutting Medicaid and SNAP.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 19(source)

I was proud to mark Police Week in D.C. by standing in support of the heroic officers who defended our democracy on January 6. It's time for the House GOP to pay more than lip service to the brave officers who protect our Capitol and communities and actually honor them with action.

The #CongressionalFamilies Program is a bipartisan effort to increase understanding of cancer prevention and early detection. I was honored to join @preventcancer.org for their spring reception to honor the memories of those we've lost and recommit ourselves to prevention and detection efforts.

Let's talk about the real Gulf of America—the gulf IN America. The gulf between the priorities of this White House, aided and abetted by House Republicans, and the needs of the American people.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govMay 5(source)

I appreciated meeting Delaware County's League of Women Voters to address questions and concerns about the first 100 days of this Trump administration, including threats to Medicaid and Social Security, the SAVE Act’s impact on eligible voters, and why the denial of due process is a threat to all.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govApr 30(source)

In 100 days of full control of Washington, the GOP has done nothing to make life easier for the American people. Instead, Trump has gone to war against our rights and liberties in pursuit of unchecked power—and Congressional Republicans are aiding and abetting his power grab.

Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon@scanlon.house.govApr 29(source)

I enjoyed meeting with Philadelphia Job Corps, a free career training and education program for low-income individuals aged 16-24. Job Corps helps these impressive young people receive vocational training, hands-on training programs in culinary arts and healthcare, and high school diplomas.

It was a special Arbor Day in Philly, celebrating a community-led renovation of Mifflin Square Park!🌳 Green spaces are important in urban centers, providing relief from heat and congestion, and a safe space for children and families. I'm proud of the investments we've made to protect green spaces.

I’m deeply concerned about the FBI's arrest of a Wisconsin judge. These escalating attacks on due process and courts seeking to uphold the rule of law should concern all Americans. I'm working to get answers and will do everything in my power to defend judicial independence and the rule of law.

Breaking News: FBI Director Kash Patel said that agents arrested a Wisconsin county judge and accused her of obstructing immigration enforcement, a major escalation in the Trump administration’s battle with local authorities over deportations.

I was pleased to welcome @coons.senate.gov to Philly Shipyard to highlight the growing importance of regional shipbuilding for both our national security and local economy. We met with students at the shipyard's apprenticeship program and toured the Naval Surface Warfare Center in the Navy Yard.
