They hate her because she’s Black.
They hate her because she’s a woman.
They hate her because her husband is Jewish.
And they hate her because deep down, they know she’s right.

Sens. Schumer, Merkley, Murray, and Peters are calling for the resignation of OMB Director Russell Vought.

"By impounding billions of dollars … and aggressively pursuing the illegal use of pocket rescissions, Vought has done everything in his power to gut the federal government piece by piece."

Our democracy can’t be run by mob bosses and people are tired of these intimidation tactics by Trump.

It’s time for the House to come back to work and deliver for the American people.
