1/ Another ridiculous lie from @realDonaldTrump.
From day one, @HouseDemocrats have been focused on delivering on our promises to the American people. Meanwhile, Mitch McConnell calls himself the “grim reaper” and refuses to even consider our bills.

2/ We have the receipts to back it up.
We passed #HR1, the For The People Act — the most ambitious set of ethics & election reforms in a generation. It gets big money out of politics, protects voting rights & strengthens ethics laws.

3/ We passed the #EqualityAct to ensure #LGBTQ Americans get the same legal protection as everyone else.
4/ We passed the Dream and Promise Act to give patriotic young people, TPS & DED holders the path to citizenship they deserve.
6/ We passed the Bipartisan Background Checks Act, standing up for families who’ve been impacted by gun violence & voting to make sure common-sense universal background checks are the law.
7/ We passed the #ClimateActionNow Act to combat the climate crisis and block Trump from pulling the U.S. out of the Paris Agreement.
8/ We passed the #RaiseTheWage Act to: raise the minimum wage to $15 by 2025, give up to 33 million Americans a raise, and lift at least 1.3 million Americans out of poverty.
9/ We passed legislation to #ProtectOurCare by reversing Republicans’ ACA sabotage and rescinding the Trump administration's “junk plan” rule.
10/ We passed the Save the Internet Act – a bill to restore the popular, strong, bipartisan net neutrality provisions for internet users that were repealed by the Trump administration in 2018.
11/ We passed the Securing America’s Federal Elections Act to provide funding for states to replace outdated and vulnerable voting equipment and mandates strict cybersecurity requirements for both election technology vendors and voting systems.
12/ I could go on and on, but here’s the bottom line: the president is a liar. @HouseDemocrats have been doing our job, but Mitch McConnell refuses to do his.
We will continue to fight #ForThePeople despite Senate Republicans’ unwillingness and inability to get anything done.
