As I have mentioned: the times have found us to play our role, understanding the urgency of what is at stake. Republicans in Washington want to destroy Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security; keep prescription drug costs soaring and much more. That is why we must expand our House Democratic Majority, take back the Senate, and elect a Democratic President of the United States. Thank you, to the countless clubs and organizations, for your unwavering support. Let's continue to mobilize! -NP

Republicans in Washington *don't* want you to know or share this.

But House Democrats are doing it all: honoring our oath by rooting out the #CultureOfCorruption, fighting to #LowerDrugCosts and working to improve the lives of the American people.

From "everyone was in the loop" in the Trump bribery scheme to "we followed the President’s orders" -- the news coverage across the country for Trump and Republicans engaging in the cover up campaign has been brutal.

Don't take it from us though. See for yourself. 📰📺👇 🔥In Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio and North Carolina🔥

Our House Majority is showing the American people that Democrats get things done.

For our young Americans, we passed the Save The Internet Act to restore critical Net Neutrality protections and Climate Action Now Act.

(Thread) For our young immigrant Dreamers, we passed the Dream and Promise Act!

For ending discrimination against LGBTQ Americans, we passed the historic Equality Act!

We passed a strong reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act.

If it's Thursday, it's another temper tantrum and more lies. So we're correcting the record #ForThePeople.

Exactly two years ago, Trump and House Republicans celebrated the passage of Trumpcare that guts protections for those with pre-existing conditions and rips health coverage from over 20 million Americans.

📽 from @ProtectOurCare Today, instead of joining Democrats to lower the cost of prescription drugs and increase health coverage, Republicans are playing a deadly game with the lives of the American people by targeting the Affordable Care Act in court.

When I was first elected, there were only 23 women in the House. This year, as we commemorate 100 years since women won the right to vote, we celebrate the over 100 women who now serve in the Congress — the highest number in our history. #WomensHistoryMonth We celebrate our victories and the contributions women have made in all sectors of American life.

We know that when women succeed, this country succeeds.

Throughout the campaign, Trump and Republicans lied about protecting people's pre-existing conditions -- all the while pushing a lawsuit to have the ACA declared unconstitutional. Today, millions of Americans woke up this morning to headlines like this -- Republican "Judge In Texas Rules Against Obamacare"

I was Speaker when we passed the Affordable Care Act that has given millions of Americans newfound coverage and protected over 100 million people with pre-existing conditions. At the same time, I have watched as Republicans railed against it. I watched as Republicans in Washington forced over 60 votes to repeal and/or undermine people's health care. Now, they want to run around the campaign trail and claim they're in favor of protections for Americans with pre-existing conditions? I don't think so.

I have made some very powerful, rich enemies because I have been highly instrumental in passing Dodd-Frank, a big energy bill, and the Affordable Care Act which has extended health care to over 20 million people and protected over 130 million with pre-existing conditions. The special interest, dark money groups are relentlessly spending millions spreading falsehoods about me because they and Republicans in Washington have nothing to run on. They're bankrupt of ideas.

But I'm focused on winning big for the people.
