Navy veteran Daniel Fisk Bennett after the Trump Administration changed the VA website to blame Democrats for the shutdown:
"I was shocked. I was like, 'this is unprofessional,' this is not what the VA is for. We did not swear an oath to a party."

A government run by billionaires is not “for the people”.
It’s for billionaires.
It’s why they’re getting billions in subsidies, tax breaks and government contracts.
Meanwhile, working class Americans are losing their jobs and healthcare.
It's this simple: Republicans control the House, Senate and White House - and so the government has been shut down because they chose to shut it down rather than pass a budget that protects our health care and keeps costs from rising.

Using an online calculator, Kara Pitt-D’Andrea estimated her premiums will increase from $392 a month to more than $500 if the Republicans in Congress let the tax credits expire.
“We know the storm is coming in December,” she said.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.
Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.
Donald Trump SHUT DOWN the government last night.
Why? Because he and Republicans in Congress would rather shut down the whole government than lower your health care costs.
It’s shameful.

Our grassroots partners from around the nation rallied at the Capitol Wednesday evening, calling for lawmakers to put Healthcare Over Billionaires as Republicans pushed the federal government into shutdown.

Today’s the last day of government funding and MAGA Republicans are doing NOTHING to make sure kids, families, and seniors can continue to access affordable health care and thousands of civil servants can continue to get paid while serving their country.

Winsome Earle-Sears doesn't care about us. She wouldn't listen to me, and she had no answer for why she supports ripping health care away from 350,000 Virginians to give Elon Musk and the billionaires more tax breaks.

FACT: Republicans control the House, Senate and White House.
If the government shuts down, it’s because they chose to shut it down rather than pass a budget that protects our health care and keeps costs from rising.
Let's get that message out on Tuesday - see the rally details here:
Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move.
1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year.
Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
On Tuesday, September 30th, hours before the government is expected to shut down, we will hold a rally in DC to hear from elected leaders and people across the country about the real human cost of the Republican tax and budget agenda. RSVP below 👇

But if you’re a working parent or small business owner, they’ll shut down the government to block yours.

America First!
Until some billionaires start losing their investments in Argentina.
Then it’s our patriotic duty as working Americans to bail out Argentina’s economy and stock market.
The greatest innovation billionaires have come up with is they found a way to have billions of dollars and still be miserable and angry all the time

Rural hospitals are struggling, and families are already at risk of losing their health care, but Tom Tiffany thinks there should be even MORE cuts.
"I think there are some ways in which they can find more savings... there are more reforms that can be made." #WIGov
