Trump is actively making our goods more expensive by blocking a piece of key infrastructure - apparently all because his most Epstein-linked Cabinet Secretary conveyed a request from a billionaire GOP donor. America does not have to tolerate this kind of corruption.

Here’s what’s at stake in the shutdown:
If Republicans get their way, 50,000 Americans will die unnecessarily every year.
15 million will lose their health care.
20 million will see their premiums double.
All so they can give a trillion dollar tax break to the 1%.
