Sen. Smith and I just spoke about the lives of Melissa and Mark Hortman on the floor. I shared these poignant words from their kids: “The best way to honor our parents’ memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else.”

$75 billion firm wins carve-out in tax bill after lobbying push Lobbyists for a private equity firm were paid to influence Congress on the obscure provision, records show.

This is why you always need to read the fine print. In addition to a tax plan that heavily favors the most wealthy, there’s plenty of carve-outs like this for their friends. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

The GOP budget bill is 1,116 pages long but it boils down to this one simple fact:

Republicans are facilitating a massive transfer of wealth to the richest Americans while making cuts that would rip away healthcare and food from millions of people.

It's Robin Hood in reverse.

A new analysis estimates the Trump/GOP budget's rollback of clean energy tax credits will eliminate nearly 830,000 jobs by 2030 and raise energy prices by 50% by 2035. 

Just another way the "big beautiful bill" will make the economy worse and your life more expensive.

The Trump administration has slashed jobs and programs worldwide, they are preparing to make historic cuts to Medicaid and other services, but Trump continues to find ways to enrich himself, from crypto-scams to now accepting a "gift" of a 747.

It’s a recalibration of economic control.

Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way.

When the dust finally settles, they will own more.

The rest of us will own less. A lot less.
