@ocasio-cortez.house.gov @salinas.house.gov Stop the maddness!
What about House Democrats? Glad you asked! Back in 2017, @nadler.house.gov shared a memo showing how Dems could fight back. It still holds up! With a razor-thin GOP majority, House Dems can win fights—or at least slow MAGA chaos by staying unified and making every vote a battle.

Let’s be clear: This is just another Republican Rip Off that will hurt working families in my district.
President Trump needs to abandon this foolish scheme and start working with Congress on real solutions that will actually bring down costs. (4/4)

Trump doesn't care if the economy crashes and communities suffer. His goal is to force you and your family to accept a lower standard of living while he and his friends get richer. Cutting support for law enforcement, schools, small businesses and firefighters is chaos by design.
President Trump’s order freezing trillions of dollars in federal grants and loans sent officials at schools, hospitals, nonprofit organizations and many others into a frantic scramble to understand the extent of the directive. Here's what to know.
Order to pause federal spending creates deep uncertainty for schools, nonprofits and companies.

Please, please listen, I am literally begging you:
I'm a healthcare lawyer who is alive because of Medicaid. I just came from Hill meetings about Medicaid. I'm very plugged into "the groups" — if you're covered by Medicaid, do not cancel anything medical because of the OMB mess.
