House: Democrat Feed
The @HouseGOP agenda:
❌handouts to the ultra-rich
❌slash seniors' retirement security
❌trample women's rights
❌cut food assistance for kids
The American people are in the GOP's rearview mirror.
House Dems will always defend our democracy.
Uphold the rule of law.
And aggressively push back against the Insurrectionist-in-Chief.
ICYMI 🌲➡️ On Friday, I was in eastern Whatcom County visiting with students, teachers & administrators in the Mount Baker School District & hearing about community needs & volunteering at the @FH_FoodBank.
Hear about this & more on this week's #RecapWithRick ⬇️
Ben Barnes deserves praise for disclosing that GOP skullduggery is not new as discussed in this fascinating article about efforts to delay Iran’s release of American hostages to undermine President Jimmy Carter’s reelection. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/18/us/politics/jimmy-carter-october-surprise-iran-hostages.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

All three of the leading insulin producers in America have now heeded President Biden’s call to reduce their prices.
Congress should act next and pass legislation to cap monthly insulin costs at $35 for every American.
Putin's abduction and deportation of Ukrainian children is a despicable war crime that continues to this day. The International Community has a moral obligation to defend Ukraine and the countless innocent children who cannot defend themselves.

We can afford to offer every American free public college and vocational training.
No one should have to go into crushing debt to get an education in this country.
Thank you @DreamProjectVA for all you do to support our outstanding students! Inspired today by stories of overcoming struggles to make the American Dream a reality.
I’m taking on Big Pharma to lower prescription drug costs for older Americans—including successfully capping the cost of insulin at $35 a month.
This is great progress, but I won't stop until we lower the price of all prescription medication, for all people.
1/2 Thanks to @nickcollinsma for another entertaining St. Patrick’s Day Breakfast with good food and a celebration of Irish traditions in South Boston. Finished the day with the huge crowds in the Southie St. Patrick’s Day parade with @WuTrain, @MassGovernor and @mfflaherty…
Long-term care is draining seniors’ retirement savings, and now House Republicans are considering drastic cuts to Medicaid that could jeopardize the long-term care of seniors.
Instead, Medicare coverage should be expanded to include both home health care and nursing home care.
Senior care is crushingly expensive. Boomers aren’t ready. https://wapo.st/3FwO0AJ
#OTD 44 years ago @cspan began showing your Congress live — a landmark of government transparency. The first speech? Then- rep @algore! It remains great television today!

📺On March 19, 1979, the Cable-Satellite Public Affairs Network (C-SPAN) launched
So excited to be here at FDU with students, faculty, and the North Jersey community to cheer on the Fifth District’s own @FDUKnightsMBB as they continue their historic March Madness run!

It was wonderful and refreshing to be back in El Paso this week.
I made more visits to current and previous Community Project Funding awardees, joined @ElPasoTXGov and @ElPasoCounty for presentations on federal funding, and so much more 👇🏽
