The Trump-Republican economy has been a disaster for everyday Americans.
Meanwhile.
House Democrats are fighting hard to lower the high cost of living.
The affordability crisis is NOT a hoax. It’s very real.

G’mar Chatima Tova.
Wishing all those observing Yom Kippur an easy fast.
And a meaningful day of reflection and renewal.
Donald Trump and Republicans promised a Golden Age.
Gas prices are up. Grocery prices are up. Housing costs are up. Health insurance premiums are up.
They have delivered nothing but a Rotten Age.
And the American people know it.

My statement addressing the rise of hate targeting the South Asian community in America.
The Republican economy is a disaster and your reckless war of choice in Iran is a failure.
That’s not fake news.
It’s stone-cold reality.
House Republicans just cut and run on AI safety.
These extremists don’t give a damn about protecting the American people.
On the first day of Hispanic Heritage Month, Chairman @RepEspaillat and Democratic Leader @RepJeffries convened Latino leaders from UnidosUS, Latino Victory Project, LULAC, Voto Latino, Mi Familia Vota, NALEO Educational Fund, Hispanic Federation & America’s Voice.
A powerful conversation on protecting our communities, strengthening our economy, defending the right to vote, and building a stronger future for the Latino community.

Thank you @RepBeatty for your incredible leadership in forcefully pushing back against the President’s reckless vanity project at the Kennedy Center.
If Donald Trump spent half as much time trying to lower the cost of living as he does plotting to demolish national treasures, our economy would not be failing.
These extremists are completely unhinged.

We will always stand with the Ukrainian people until victory is won.
But I cannot support legislation that fails to mandate sanctions on Russia.
While giving Donald Trump additional Tariff authority that he will use to raise costs on everyday Americans.

A new CBO report finds nearly $40 billion has been squandered on the reckless war of choice in Iran.
And the cost keeps growing.
Donald Trump and House Republicans can spend billions to wage war.
But the extremists won’t spend a dime to lower the high cost of your groceries, healthcare, or housing.
Enough.

Donald Trump tried to interfere with mail-in voting weeks before the election.
We sued and the Supreme Court shut him down.
There will be a free and fair election in November.
The Supreme Court just blocked Donald Trump’s diabolical scheme to restrict mail-in ballots.
Democracy won.
And far-right extremists have lost.
A federal court in the Jeffries v. Trump case just blocked the administration from restricting mail-in voting.
We will make sure America has a free and fair election in November.
Donald Trump is on the ballot.
The American people will send him and House Republicans a very clear message in November.
Enough with the empty promises.
The Republican economy is a disaster.
Hardworking American taxpayers deserve better.
House Republicans are partying with their billionaire donors in Dallas.
Meanwhile.
The cost of living crisis continues to drown everyday Americans.
Enough.
Americans paid record-high gas prices on Labor Day.
Republicans promised to lower costs.
Their reckless war of choice in Iran and the Trump Tariffs have instead made life way more expensive.
They are all unfit to govern.
