Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

We can’t let this happen.

And any Republican who refuses to renew health care subsidies for hardworking American families, saying we can’t afford it, needs to explain how they found $1 trillion in tax cuts to give away to the wealthiest people in America.

“We’re here peacefully protesting, looking as ridiculous as we can, just so maybe we appeal to the president because he’s a ridiculous leader that is normalizing abuse of power. And we cannot stand and act like nothing is happening.” 🦄

just talked to Gov. Pritzker who dared President Trump to “come and get me” after POTUS threatened him with arrest. But Pritzker said he thinks Trump will chicken out.

I cherished every day I got to call myself a Soldier—but ordering troops to intimidate the very Americans they sacrifice to protect doesn’t make us safer.
 
Trump is wasting millions to terrorize citizens exercising their First Amendment rights. It's wrong.

Guess how many times Republicans have tried to negotiate with Democrats to save health care? None. Zero. Not once.

Republicans would rather shut down the government than lower health care costs.

Mike Johnson is delaying the swearing in of Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva, the last vote needed on releasing the #Epstein files.

Arizona residents deserve a representative, and Speaker Johnson needs to allow the House to vote!
