TO ALL FEDERAL WORKERS: if you were illegally fired today and have information of wrongdoing or abuse of power by the Trump Administration, our whistleblower tip line is open. We want to hear from you. All whistleblowers are federally protected. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/contact/tip-li…


Instead of working with Democrats to negotiate a bipartisan spending bill that will reopen government and lower health care costs for working class families, the president is illegally mass firing hardworking civil servants across the country. It’s shameful.

AG Letitia James did her job in holding the president to account—which a jury of Americans supported. Now, she’s being persecuted for it. The president’s weaponization of the DOJ is the hallmark of authoritarianism, and we all must stand up & speak out against this perversion…

New York Attorney General Letitia James has been indicted on at least one count of alleged fraud following pressure from President Trump. She is the second political figure in a span of just three weeks to face prosecution after Trump's public demand that the Justice Department…

Republicans in Congress want the President to use American troops as political pawns in their effort to end ACA tax credits that help American families afford their health care. Democrats are ready and waiting to pass legislation that ensures our servicemembers and their…

As Missouri soybean farmers are struggling to survive, the Trump administration just gave $20 billion to Argentina—one of their top competitors. How is this America First? Stop bailing out foreign farmers, start providing relief to hardworking Americans, and end the tariffs!

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the US has finalized a $20 billion currency swap framework with Argentina’s central bank bloomberg.com/news/articles/…



American troops shouldn’t be punished because of Republicans’ refusal to negotiate a bipartisan budget bill. The Speaker should bring House Republicans back from their 3-week vacation and pass legislation to ensure our troops get paid until a compromise is reached.

Republican C-SPAN caller to Mike Johnson: "As a Republican, I'm very disappointed in my party,and I'm very disappointed in you, because you have the power to call the House back. You refuse to do that just for a show."



I am relieved that Israel and Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire and that innocent hostages will return home—which is the first step toward ensuring a durable peace across the Middle East. I call on all the parties to implement this agreement in good faith and to do the immense…

Israel and Hamas agreed to the first phase of a deal to end the war in Gaza, President Trump, Israeli and Hamas leaders said. Hamas agreed to release all the remaining hostages in exchange for Israel’s release of Palestinian prisoners. wapo.st/4h2re5j



If Congress waits to extend ACA tax credits until Dec. 31, 1.5 million more people will be uninsured in 2026 than if they were extended at an earlier date—and millions more will see higher health care premiums. This crisis cannot wait.

ICE is shooting ministers with pepper balls, the president is sending troops into American cities, and American citizens are being unlawfully detained. This administration has been out of control for months—and it’s about time Republicans stood up for the Constitution.

House Republicans being on vacation for the past 3 weeks probably isn’t helping. Republicans must return to Washington, sit down with Democrats, and negotiate a bipartisan solution that will reopen government and prevent healthcare costs from skyrocketing on American families.


For the past seven days, President Trump and Republicans have refused to work with Democrats to forge a bipartisan deal that will reopen the government and lower health care costs. It’s hurting hardworking Americans in Kansas City and across the country.

.@Repcleaver (D-MO) tells me his constituents are becoming increasingly worried during the government shutdown. "In Kansas City, Missouri, people are trembling over the fact that they are in trouble," he said.



Why would the president even consider pardoning a convicted sexual predator like Ghislaine Maxwell? Release the Epstein Files.

COLLINS: Pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell -- is that something you're open to doing? TRUMP: Who are we talking about? COLLINS: Ghislaine Maxwell TRUMP: I haven't heard the name is so long. I can say this -- I'd have to take a look at it ... I will speak to the DOJ COLLINS: She's…



While families are already struggling to stay afloat and keep food on the table, the president’s reckless tariff taxes are driving up prices on everyday goods that Americans rely on. They deserve better.

The costs of Trump's tariffs are starting to drive higher prices for US consumer goods from cans of soup to car parts. on.ft.com/4mMoM3Z

If the Speaker is serious, he can extend the ACA tax credits that will prevent healthcare premiums from skyrocketing, restore the $1 TRILLION in funding Republicans cut from Medicaid, and end the Republican shutdown!

Trump: "He wants to be the healthcare president, as he is for all these other matters. And he's going to do it. We have lots of ideas."



Just like he wants to rip health care away from hardworking families, the president wants to steal paychecks from federal workers. The law is clear and @HouseDemocrats won’t stand for it.

.@RepJeffries: "The law is clear; every single furloughed federal employee is entitled to back-pay. Period full stop. The law is clear and we will make sure that that law is followed."



The president continues violating court orders in his lawless attempts to sow chaos in American cities. At what point will Republicans in Congress stand up to this blatant abuse of power? nytimes.com/2025/10/05/us/…
