Cuts to Medicaid would be absolutely criminal
What could cuts to Medicaid look like in #CT05 under the Republican Budget framework?

❌ 32K seniors blocked from vital long-term care
❌ 90K children, including 25,000 children with disabilities, removed from coverage
❌ Nearly 251K people–over a third of our community–lose access to essential care

Thankful that I qualified for a Pell Grant back in 1993 - couldn’t have attempted paying for college without it.

Big companies only want federally funded workforce training - Pell Grants are a form of workforce training investment too for crying out loud
53% of all college students in CT-05 received more than $10 million Pell Grants.

Today, Ed & Workforce Republicans are trying to pass legislation that cuts Pell Grant eligibility, leaving millions of working students in limbo.

The teacher shortage in our country has spiked to unprecedented numbers. Common sense legislation like this supports our country’s most valuable assets - supporting teachers supports our children
I introduced an amendment that would ease the loan repayment process for teachers in high-needs districts. Unfortunately, my Republican colleagues voted against my amendment and retained the burdens- creating even more obstacles for those entering the profession.

Even as the teacher shortage has become increasingly widespread, nothing is being done to solve the problem. Our students need great teachers now more than ever, and candidates are being driven away from the field because of stringent loans & outdated repayment plans.

Americans in red states must make their voices heard to stop this travesty
Threats to Social Security jeopardize the retirement security of Americans.
Tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy cannot be a trade off for the financial stability of workers & retirees.

There are 15 Social Security field offices across Connecticut – 6 in #CT05. Given the impulsive nature of the Trump Administration, my colleagues and I are seeking to know which offices could be closed next, why, and how services will be impacted.

Sorry but if 2016 teacher of the year winner, Rep Jahana Hayes, is the first person I see you bashing on a voting record, you’re probably unserious.

During CNN’s town hall, Mike Lawler interrupted Jahana Hayes as she criticized Elon Musk, accusing him of trying to ‘burn down the house’ to bankroll tax cuts for billionaires.

Watching #CNNTownHall and Rep Jahana Hayes is winning tonight and Mike Lawler and Ryan McKenzie are weak and spewing the MAGA BS. McKenzie blamed the measles outbreak in TX on immigrants. More of Hayes for Dems, young, smart and not afraid to push back.
