Every time we think we’ve reached the bottom with this Administration, they sink a little lower. washingtonpost.com/national/healt…
Trump’s budget pays for his ludicrous tax giveaway by cutting $1.5 trillion from Medicaid.
After repeatedly promising to protect Medicare during his campaign, Trump’s budget will reduce spending by $845 billion over the next ten years.

Around the country, seventy-one percent of parents of children under age 18 say it is a problem to find quality, affordable child care in their area.
In an effort to help ease the burden and raise awareness for legislation aimed at tackling the nation’s child care crisis, I’m joining with working mothers to call for swift passage of the Child Care for Working Families Act.
I also announced my introduction of the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit Enhancement Act.

Today, I’ve joined with @SenateDems to support #NetNeutrality because we stand with the 86% of Americans, 82% of independents, and 85% of Republicans who want a free and open internet. #SaveTheNet
Last year’s effort to restore net neutrality had bipartisan support in the Senate, and I hope my colleagues will continue working to pass legislation permanently enshrining strong net neutrality protections in our code of law. #SaveTheNet
With more of our lives happening online—from education to entertainment, commerce to health services—we need to make sure that all Americans have access to a free and open internet. #SaveTheNet

I believe I'm going to elaborate on both of these links.

@realDonaldTrump: I will never waver from my sacred duty to defend this Nation and its people. We will get the job done.

Trump is reassuring #America he has & will continue to keep every campaign promise made & he will continue to fight for #WeThePeople

President Trump was elected partly on his promise to secure the Southern Border with a barrier and, since his first day in office, he has been following through on that promise.

A year after the middle class tax cut, the rich are winning. Here's how
The promise: The wealthy won't benefit.

Trump: "The rich will not be gaining at all with this plan."

That's false. On average, in 2018, taxes declined for everyone, but top groups got the biggest benefit
The promise: Middle class will be the biggest beneficiaries.

Trump: "Our framework ensures that the benefits of tax reform go to the middle class, not to the highest earners."

False: Families earning $200K-$1M will see a 9% drop, 1 point more than families earning $75K-$100K

If you were lucky enough to get part of the 13% of the tax cut that went to bonuses and raises, better save it up for the coming price hikes and trade war.

1. Listen up @GOP @HouseGOP @SenateGOP! My entire life, every time #GOP takes control they break the economy. Every. Time. Clearly you don't learn from your mistakes, or just cave to the disgusting 'party over country' battle cries. Pay attention - this is why you fail.
2. Two consistent platform features push diametrically against each other. An adherence to the failed 'Trickle Down Economics' model & Deregulation. Your core desire for small government will result in failure of your economic plan every time. The #GOPTaxScam will be disasterous.
3. Your model fails because you stack the deck for those at the top and then sit back touting your laissez-faire foundation, just hoping your 'plan' is going to magically happen in a socially beneficial way - and, repeatedly, it doesn't. Why not?
