No matter which day they vote on, it will be the largest cut to Medicaid in American history.

National Association of Building Trades Unions: "If enacted, the [Republicans' budget bill] stands to be the biggest job-killing bill in the history of this country... the equivalent of terminating more than 1,000 Keystone XL projects... threatens 1.75 million construction jobs."

1) Biggest wealth transfer in American history. 2) Kills solar industry, raising prices 3) almost a trillion dollar cut to Medicaid 4) nursing homes shutting down 5) energy shortages 6) 4.5 trillion in NEW DEBT. — I promise you this bill is worse than you think.

Wow, the trade union that represents America’s 3 million construction workers just said the Senate’s big bill would be “the biggest job-killing bill in our country’s history.” They think it threatens up to 1.75 million construction jobs.

GOP Sen. Thom Tillis just started telling the truth hours after announcing his retirement: “What do I tell my constituents when Trump breaks his promise by pushing them off of Medicaid?”

For those who haven't been closely following how many people will lose health insurance from Republican actions: CBO projects 11.8 million more uninsured from the Big Bill. An additional 5.1 million uninsured from allowing ACA tax credits to expire and administrative actions.

Trump’s big, beautiful bill would: -End healthcare for 16 million -Shut 25% of nursing homes -Cause 51,000 to die a year -Take food from 2 million kids -End 1.75 million blue collar jobs -End Pell Grants for 1.4 million All to pay for a $975 billion tax break for the top 1%.

Baltimore ended the first half of 2022 with 179 homicides, the worst first half of a year on record (since 1970). Baltimore just ended the first half of 2025 with 68 homicides, which is the fewest on record. That’s a 62 percent drop from 2022-2025

🚨NEW INSTA-SCORE🚨 Looks like the final Senate bill will add over $4 trillion to the debt, and violate the House budget instructions by ~$650 billion. via CRFB.org

A lot of reporters pointing at Bob Casey’s loss and today’s vote. In October, Casey ran an ad saying McCormick wanted to cut Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for the rich. Both PolitiFact and WaPo said that was false, which GOP seized on. It was not. McCormick played ya’ll.

-Kick millions off of health care -Help millions go hungry b/c they can no longer afford food -Increase energy prices -Bankrupt the country -Leave states to cleanup the mess -All to give tax cuts to the rich! Seems like a great agenda to run on… #shame #sham

it only took 294 days to get from "immigrants are eating animals" to "we will feed immigrants to animals"

The Senate plan to slash Medicaid and ACA marketplace funding could lead to nearly 12 million more people without insurance by 2034 and harm the finances of hospitals, nursing homes and community health centers. buff.ly/CDnLZAj

One thing that’s genuinely novel to me about this tax bill is that at least three major models have “dynamic” scoring estimates — estimates that account for subsequent economic growth — finding the bill to be more, not less, expensive, because higher interest costs slow growth

This sums up so much of what's wrong with our politics...

With this vote, Congress makes ICE the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency in history, with more money per year at its disposal over the next four years than the budgets of the FBI, DEA, ATF, US Marshals, and Bureau of Prisons combined.

No more navel gazing or infighting. We now have a clear task. Inform blue collar America Trump once again failed them. Let’s stand on wooden crates at tractor pulls and ask for the chance to go back in and save people’s healthcare, paid for by higher taxes on Trump and Musk.

Over a dozen Maryland lawmakers joined Texas lawmakers at a rally against states "finding" Trump votes in Congress. Legislators from over 30 states showed up in solidarity:

Another way to make DC safer would have been not to pardon 1,500 J6 criminals who invaded the Capitol and assaulted and injured more than 140 police officers.
