All you've done for the last 15 years is try to repeal, defund, deauthorize, and dismantle the Affordable Care Act with no alternative. No alternative. Give me a damn break.

Mike Johnson: "Let me look right into the camera and tell you very clearly: Republicans are the ones concerned about healthcare. Republicans are the party working around the clock everyday to fix healthcare. This is not talking points for us: we've done it."

I’m glad that it looks like the war in Iran is coming to an end, but this MOU is absolutely not a good deal for our country.

This video goes out to all the graduates and the loved ones who helped them get there. Congratulations! No matter what’s going on in the world, it’s important we put things aside to rejoice in these milestones.

It’s been a big week for all of us who know we need more affordable housing. On Monday, I announced the reintroduction of my Community Housing Act to bring costs down. And yesterday, a bipartisan deal was struck on a major housing package. There’s agreement - whatever your

Let’s be clear: Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress kicked MILLIONS of Americans off health care through their refusal to bring premiums down. They quite literally took the money they could have used for this and instead cut taxes for the ultra-wealthy. Disgusting.

Obamacare insurance isn’t worth it anymore for some families. After Congress allowed pandemic-era subsidies to expire, many are going without insurance, some for the first time. From @arjonesreports ⤵️ kffhealthnews.org/insurance/unin…

The targeting of the trans community has been one of the most disgusting aspects of this administration. I’ll never turn my back on our trans neighbors, whether they’re in Vermont or anywhere else in the country. They deserve the same rights and respect as anyone else.

Surprise, surprise. Yet again, Trump lied about the funding details for one of his big vanity projects - and you’re footing the bill.

It shouldn’t be so hard to watch football. Starting next season, the only authorized way for restaurants and bars to watch out-of-market games will be through EverPass Media, a joint venture between the NFL and a private equity firm. We can already see more cost increases on

Unfortunately, it turns out we were right. The Trump admin, led by people like Stephen Miller, WAS considering invoking the Insurrection Act against American citizens. This shows that we all need to stay loud and keep calling this stuff out. They’re doing exactly what we think

Today, alongside community partners, I announced the reintroduction of the Community Housing Act. This is one of the most significant pieces of legislation I lead in Congress. This bill is full of concrete actions we can take to address the housing crisis. And we have no time to

The comment was disgusting, racist, and obviously not true, but this is a great opportunity to remind folks that First Lady Melania Trump was in the Epstein files, which is disgusting and unfortunately very true.

When I was first elected to Congress, I had no idea just how often I’d need to stand up for our LGBTQ+ rights. I am honored to do this work, and I won’t stop until every person in this country can be their whole and true self.

Trump installed a lackey to lead the Department of Justice, and now he wants to make him permanent. The absurd idea of making Todd Blanche the permanent attorney general conflicts with the entire concept of an independent DOJ.
