BREAKING: THE HOUSE DID SOMETHING GOOD.
They just passed an extension to the Affordable Care Act subsidies that expired last month.
The bill now heads to the Senate, which MUST PASS this bill and provide relief to the millions of Americans facing skyrocketing health care costs.

We've heard your concerns, Illinois.
Families are paying more to keep the lights on, and Trump's only making it worse.
With the steps we're taking, residents today will benefit from new jobs and lower prices and residents tomorrow will benefit from a stronger power grid.

Commentators have to stop describing these rebukes of Trump as rare. The Senate voted to roll back his tariffs. Both chambers delivered a historic rebuke on the Epstein files. The House is voting this week to undo part of his health care agenda and override two vetoes. His coalition is fraying.
NEWS: Senate votes 52-47 to advance a measure restricting Trump's power to use military force in Venezuela.
A rare warning shot from Congress to Trump as he dials up foreign rhetoric.
Voting YES: Democrats + Rand Paul, Collins, Murkowski, Young, Hawley.
