House Dems have the votes to pass a 3yr extension of ACA tax credits.
Now Senate Republicans are the only thing standing in the way of getting this bill to the President & preventing huge spikes in costs for millions.
Leader Thune: commit to bringing this bill to a vote, now.

Every Member of Congress should be repulsed that these words came from the mouths of our colleagues. Yet this language is so normal for Republicans, they can apparently spew it w/o repercussions.
Anti-Muslim bigotry has no place in the halls of Congress or our nation. Despicable.
In 1951, Barbara Rose Johns led a walkout of her segregated high school.
Now, her statue will stand in the same spot in the Capitol where Robert E. Lee's once was.
Even as this Admin tries to erase the Civil Rights struggle, we must continue the work to recognize these heroes.
As I've said, Trump's warmongering with Venezuela is not about stopping drug traffickers.
The real goal: regime change to grab Venezuelan oil & gas reserves for his billionaire buddies.
Putting Americans in harm’s way for the thing Trump cares about most — profits.
Remember when news broke that the Coast Guard would no longer categorize swastikas & nooses as hate symbols?
That policy went into effect this week.
As hate and antisemitism rise through our nation, this Admin should be ashamed for downplaying the meaning of these symbols.
Congratulations to Maryland's newly elected House Speaker Joseline Peña-Melnyk!
Joseline has led the way on so many issues — from affordable healthcare to supporting our immigrant communities to fighting for working families — and I know she'll only build on that work for Marylanders as Speaker.
As data centers pop up in every corner of the country, their electricity demands are spiking rates for everyone.
But why on Earth should you be covering the electricity bill of a billion-dollar tech giant?
This week, @warren.senate.gov, @blumenthal.senate.gov, & I are asking big tech just that.
Good for @repilhan.bsky.social for standing up to Trump’s bullying. While she stands tall, Trump, as always, makes himself look so small.

Today, one of Hong Kong's strongest pro-democracy advocates, Jimmy Lai, was convicted of sedition under the China's draconian National Security Law.
If this Admin truly stands for free speech, it must enforce my Hong Kong Autonomy Act to hold Beijing accountable for this sham conviction.
This week, Myanmar’s military junta bombed a hospital killing over 30 people — continuing a pattern of attacking its own people.
Last week, I led my colleagues in calling on Secretary Rubio to use our influence to help end the violence & ensure accountability for these atrocities.
We must act.
This is a horrific act of antisemitism during a time meant for light & celebration. My heart breaks for the Bondi Beach community & my thoughts are with all those who lost loved ones & the entire Jewish community as we condemn this evil.
Antisemitism has no place in our world.
I am devastated by the mass shooting at Brown University and my heart goes out to the victims’ loved ones as we pray for the recovery of the injured.
These mass shootings must end. Inaction is complicity.
Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.
This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.
This ballroom not only marks the destruction of a historic landmark — it's also creating a monument to corruption in our country, as massive corporations & the ultra-wealthy have donated millions to build the ballroom & buy Trump's favor.
We need to put a stop to this entire corrupt enterprise.
For months, we've sought details about the shadowy deal the Trump Admin made with the Salvadoran govt to imprison people in the notorious CECOT prison — where they faced torture & other human rights abuses.
Yesterday, I got the official who signed the deal to publicly admit it for the first time.
Trump doesn't have this authority.
States are filling a void left by the federal government's failure to hold AI companies accountable.
But after those companies donated millions to Trump's campaign, his inauguration fund, and his ballroom, Trump is doing their bidding. This cannot stand.
We have our answer: 4 million.
Senate Republicans just voted to kick 4 million Americans off their health insurance to fund their tax cuts for billionaires & mega-corporations.
I agree with those who say we need to drastically reform the system, but this isn't reform, it's regression.
For months, the Trump Administration has sought to deny Kilmar Ábrego Garcia his rights to due process and fair treatment by our justice system.
Today’s ruling by Judge Xinis – requiring the government to immediately release him – is a forceful stand for our Constitution and all of our rights.
Tomorrow, the Senate will vote on an extension of ACA tax credits.
This vote boils down to one question: how many working people deserve to lose their health insurance to fund tax breaks for billionaires?
My answer: zero.
Tomorrow we will know Republicans’ answer.
Remember when Trump said that his tariffs might mean fewer toys for American kids? Or when he freaked out after Amazon said they might show the added costs from his tariffs on their site?
Yesterday, I reminded his top trade official of how these tariffs are a Trump Tax on everything we buy.
