"Everyone needs health care." Full stop. Yet Trump's refusal to extend ACA tax credits will kick millions of Americans off their plans. Hear from @underwood.house.gov:

"I'm a United States Senator, but I'm also a product of good public policy." Head Start and Upward Bound opened doors for @warnock.senate.gov, yet the Trump administration has cut funding for these programs.
States have passed laws that protect people from deepfakes and other abuses using AI technology, but the Trump administration's narrow focus on federal preemption of any existing or future state AI laws threatens these protections. @publiccitizen.bsky.social's Craig Holman explains:
Do you live in a child care desert? 46% of all young children in America live in child care deserts, where for too many families, it's an uphill battle to both find and afford licensed child care. Child care access is a equity problem, and families deserve solutions.

Trump’s budget makes it clear his priority is NOT American families. CAP's @bbkogan.bsky.social breaks it down:
"Real patriotism is actually taking care of the people in our country." 👏
Young Americans and college graduates are facing an uphill battle looking for employment thanks to the rise of AI tech.
Freezing utility rates isn't enough, especially as the Trump administration continues to hike rates from gas to grocery prices.

MAHA is a lie. Beef is up 14 percent and produce is up 6.5 percent. Groceries just had their worst month in 4 years. We cannot eat healthy when we can barely afford to eat at all. Trump prices are crushing us. #WeCantAffordTrump

External intervention almost never ends well. Even killing Iran’s supreme leader wouldn’t bring automatic security to the Middle East; it would only create more unpredictability and a greater risk of rogue actions. The Strait of Hormuz is now a war zone. #r4today

I’m leading a bill to ensure our service members and federal employees get the pay they have missed so far due to the shutdown. People need to pay their bills now. Simple as that. I encourage my colleagues to get behind it as we work to address the health care crisis and end this shutdown.
Rush Doshi warned Trump pushed China and Iran toward their strongest leverage tools — rare earths and the Strait of Hormuz. Escalate, back down, and adversaries start seeing the U.S. as a paper tiger. #China #Iran #Trump @democrats.senate.gov @volteuropa.org
