I confronted Trump’s OMB Director about the Big Ugly Bill adding $4T to the deficit.
I also asked him if the Trump Administration intended to leave a better budget deficit than the one they inherited from the Biden Administration.
His response (or lack thereof) is telling.

Happy Loving Day! 59 years ago, Virginia couple Mildred and Richard Loving won a landmark Supreme Court case that ended state bans on interracial marriage. Today, let’s celebrate their love, strength, and perseverance, while committing ourselves to fight against racism and discrimination.

At a time when Republicans are cutting funding from under-resourced public schools, Congress should be investing in public education—not funneling taxpayer dollars to the wealthy. Today, @BobbyScott spoke in support of @RepGwenMoore’s Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act.

The Nation’s Report Card shows that students are facing serious academic challenges.
The response should be more support for students, educators, and families.
Instead, the Trump Administration and Congressional Republicans are undermining public education.

Despite all your hard work, Trump does not care how much you’re struggling.
In fact, he loves it.

Inflation is so high that it's erasing all wage gains.
Inflation: 4.2% in May for the past year
Wage growth: 3.4% in May for the past year.
Americans are getting squeezed financially. This isn't just "bad vibes" about the economy. There is real pain, especially for middle-class and lower-income households. It's tough because so many basic items are seeing sizable price increases: gas, electricity, food, medical care.

Under Donald Trump, prices are rising faster than paychecks.

The federal government has a duty to ensure ALL students can learn in a safe, welcoming environment.
While Republicans are focused on culture wars, Democrats are fighting for what parents want: a quality education and safe schools.

For many workers, the hard work doesn’t end when they vote to form a union— it begins there.
The Faster Labor Contracts Act ensures workers and employers can reach a first contract in a timely manner and negotiate for higher wages, better benefits, and safer workplaces.

Once again, Republicans are pushing a budget bill that does nothing to lower costs for working families.
Instead, it provides another $70 billion for ICE and CBP while doing nothing to stop Donald Trump’s slush fund for violent insurrectionists.
I’m voting NO.

Workers who unionize can bargain for higher pay, better benefits, and safer workplaces.
However, the Trump Admin is one of the most anti-union in history, putting corporate interests over workers.
Today, Democrats will question NLRB leadership.

Child care is not a luxury - it's a necessity.
But instead of making child care more affordable for working families, Republicans are fighting for a bill that would make it more expensive and harder to find.
