Isn't it interesting that Trump made Republicans stick around DC to give his billionaire friends tax breaks & to cut healthcare and public school funding by July 4, but he won't make them do the same for the Epstein files? Why do you think that may be? 🤔 www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Federal workers are our neighbors, friends, and family who serve our communities. They make the essential services we all rely on run.

This is the biggest redistribution of wealth from the poor to the rich in decades—far worse, to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars, than the version passed by the House. www.aft.org/press-releas...
