Today marks two years since the deadliest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust. Two years later, dozens of hostages remain in Hamas custody. We cannot stop working until all the hostages are released. We cannot forget what happened on October 7, 2023.

Donald Trump knows he is losing this shutdown, that's why his language is changing. This is the Trump shutdown. It's that simple.

MAGA Republicans support extended the Affordable Care Act subsidies, yet the White House does not. Democrats should hold the line and protect health insurance in America.

Yom Kippur calls us to pause, reflect, and look within. It is a time for forgiveness, for letting go of burdens, and for opening ourselves to renewal. May this day be filled with meaning, compassion, and peace. Wishing all who observe this evening and tomorrow an easy fast.

We are one day away from a government shutdown. If ACA subsidies expire, many families could see their premiums jump by up to 75%. This would put health care out of reach for millions. Let your member of Congress know: health care must remain affordable.

ICE agents point guns at bystanders during violent arrest in Maryland β€œWhat’re you gonna do? Shoot me?” one witness yelled. β€œGo ahead. Shoot me.”

We cannot normalize this happening in the United States. We need leaders right now that will stand up and fight back. We are sliding down a dangerous path. If we don't speak up now, we may not get the change to in the future. www.thehandbasket.co/p/ice-agents...

Trump says U.S. will impose new tariffs on heavy trucks, drugs and kitchen cabinets The U.S. Chamber of Commerce urged the department not to impose new tariffs.

Tariffs are a tax on the American consumer. Congress must step up in this moment and vote to put an end to these tariffs before Americans lose even more money. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

White House begins plan for mass firings if there’s a government shutdown The Office of Management and Budget sent a memo to federal agencies Wednesday night instructing them to plan for staff reductions, including firings.

Once again, Marylanders are going to suffer because Republicans can't keep the government open. Donald Trump claims he is the best jobs President, but all he does is the complete opposite. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

There is a lot that this Administration wants to distract you from. Something that should be talked about everyday, however, are the Epstein files. We need a House majority that will order the DOJ to release them. The public deserves it.

House Republicans just passed a bill that ensures Affordable Care Act subsidies expire.

Let that sink in. They are completely fine with allowing you to pay more for health care.

We need a Congress that protects people, not makes it harder and more expensive to live.

If it was not clear before, it should be clear now. We need a Congress now more than ever that will have a backbone and stand up to this White House. The First Amendment is under attack.

The First Amendment is under attack in our nation, and Congress is nowhere to be found. We need a Democratic Congress to hold this President accountable, and we need it now.

Trump threatens to federalize D.C. police again if the department doesn't cooperate with immigration officials D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser said last week that local police would no longer be assisting ICE agents with immigration enforcement operations.

If Donald Trump tries to conduct a complete federal takeover of DC, Congress should reject it.

The deployment of the National Guard was a failure.

DC residents don’t deserve this. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

Schumer warns of a shutdown if Republicans don’t accept Democrats’ health care demands Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer is willing to risk a government shutdown at the end of the month if Republicans don’t accept Democratic demands on health care.

If the government shuts down, it will be because Republicans tried to gut your healthcare access. Democrats need to hold the line and protect healthcare for millions. apnews.com/article/schu...

We should continue demanding the release of the Epstein files. There are 217 signatories to the discharge petition. Call your member of Congress. Get them to sign on.

I am horrified today. Political violence and gun violence have no place in our nation. From Minnesota to today's killing of Charlie Kirk, our nation is broken right now. I pray for the lives lost and their families.

Maryland Dems may redraw map as redistricting battle rages Democrats are inchingΒ toward a mid-decade redistricting in Maryland, one of the few blue states with the ability to counter the GOP’s gerrymandering spree.

America’s job market flashes yet another warning sign about the economy | CNN Business The US economy added just 22,000 jobs in August and the unemployment rate rose to 4.3%, the highest since 2021.

If Donald Trump dares to send the National Guard to Baltimore, this is going to happen again. Unconstitutional actions will be shot down by the courts every single time. Maryland will be no different.

Kicking the can down the road on tariffs won't work for this Maryland manufacturer Independent Can Co. has raised prices twice this year already after Trump imposed 25% duties on steel in March and then doubled them in June.

Tariffs are directly harming Marylanders across our state. Last night's decision invalidating Trump's tariffs policy was a good one. The Supreme Court should let it stand. www.nbcnews.com/business/eco...

The scenes from Minnesota are devastating. My heart is with the victims of today’s tragic school shooting in Minneapolis.

No child should fear going to school.

No more thoughts or prayers. We need action now.

Donald Trump thinks America's museums should be investigated because they teach Americans about the horrors of slavery.

Let that sink in.

He is not only whitewashing history, he is encouraging history to repeat itself.

Congress must step in and stop him.
