Rep. Mark Pocan
@pocan.house.gov
While more than half of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, Trump is trying to increase the war budget by a mind-boggling 42% to $1.5 TRILLION. This is an insult to the American people.

I asked my Republican colleagues to explain why they want to ban the IRS from providing an online tool that ALREADY EXISTS to allow people to file their taxes for free. *Silence* Every Republican voted against @gluesenkampperez.house.gov's amendment to allow the IRS to offer Direct File.
Donald Trump is currently suing the government HE runs for $10 billion. I offered a commonsense amendment in @democrats-appropriations.house.gov to ban him and future presidents from suing and settling with the government they run to avoid any president from taking advantage of their office.
The $200 BILLION in additional funding the Trump administration has requested for the war in Iran is so outrageous that even Lauren Boebert opposes it. Every one of my Republican colleagues should be saying the same thing.
Project 2025 lead author and Trump’s current budget head, Russ Vought, is STEALING Congressionally-approved funds. Today, I offered an amendment to withhold funds from his office until he testifies before @democrats-appropriations.house.gov and answers our questions.
When local officials and neighboring tribes all express opposition to a proposed national park at the Apostle Islands, the federal government should listen. Unfortunately, Rep. Tiffany's bill, which has NEVER moved forward in Congress, was jammed into the Interior Appropriations bill.
Good news is rare in Washington these days, so watching countless beagles being rescued from Ridglan Farms was a welcome change. I’ll continue working to ensure that what happened at Ridglan never happens again.
Trump posted a depiction of himself as Jesus. Instead of admitting it was a stupid, narcissistic move, he claimed it was meant to depict him as… a doctor. Look, I watch the Pitt & I’ve never once seen them heal patients with light coming from their hands. Maybe that’s next season.

If you need a label to explain what’s going on, that’s your answer. Healthy relationships don’t require decoding. Situationships do, because they rely on unpredictability to keep you hooked. Instead of analyzing messages or reading into moments, start paying attention to effort. #situationship
