Don't let them gaslight you. It's all on the GOP to end the shutdown. It's easy. Just make healthcare affordable for Americans instead of giving huge tax cuts to the ultra-wealthy. Repost to send a message to Speaker Johnson.

We thank @ross.house.gov and @balint.house.gov for introducing this bill and standing firm in safeguarding our right to free speech, dissent, and political expression.
