Rep. Pressley and House Democrats stand on the Capitol steps as a patient describes the harm of letting ACA tax credits expire.

Rep. Pressley speaks to federal workers during a sit-in on the Capitol lawn.

Rep. Pressley shares an embrace with an educator who would be impacted by a government shutdown.

Rep. Pressley holds and listens attentively as a former USAID worker describes her experience of being laid off and the harm of a government shutdown.

Proud to stand with families & workers who'd be harmed by a Republican government shutdown.

It's shameful that Republicans would rather shut down the government than address the healthcare crisis they created.

Democrats are ready to fund the government & protect our families.

Thank you for speaking with us as fired federal workers, recognizing our dedication. Thank you for looking out for those working in government now under very difficult conditions, being insulted rather than lauded for a public service career, attacked rather than supported.

Newburgh Address On March 10, 1783, General George Washington learned that his officers planned to meet on the following?

Taking out his spectacles to read: "Gentlemen, you must pardon me. I have grown gray in your service and now find myself growing blind." Bringing tears to their eyes. Given how much they went through, tattered and freezing in Valley Forge.
How easily things could have gone differently for us.
