No More Waste on Glamour Projects

I’m furious and disgusted about Trump’s slush fund for criminals, his arch, his White House cage (https://substack.com/redirect/1663bff5-f1a2-4dbf-8f2b-a79b0bcfae2e?j=eyJ1IjoiNm1seXYifQ.otOmJiKbuVjJchpYlNRHfEdUeScpGrrwie9zwfsSQuI), his ballroom—all of it. Inflation is surging, the economy is awful,

Defunding ICE and CBP (and shutting them down) is the only path forward now

I have great concern about the hunger strikes at Delaney Hall in New Jersey, Desert View in Southern California, and other ICE facilities across the country. The conditions in these detention centers are unacceptable. What’s happening to inmates in them is horrific. I find it outrageous that we are

The DHS Secretary is working up plans to stop international flights from coming into Newark. Our US Senator was assaulted with tear gas outside an immigration detention center. Meanwhile, the president continues to authorize an illegal war without any checks from congress. We need a NJ-07 vote to re

Defund ICE and CBP, their usefulness has been exhausted

I’m horrified at what’s happening at Delaney Hall in New Jersey as well as at detention centers across the country. Inmates are getting rotten food, being denied medical care, being verbally abused by guards, and being denied legal help. On top of that ICE agents are abusing protesters and pepper sp

NO to the Slush Fund, Ballroom, and ICE/CBP

I vehemently oppose Trump’s 1.8 billion dollar slush fund, his 1 billion dollar ballroom, and his 70 billion dollar reconciliation bill. Two-thirds (https://substack.com/redirect/0929e803-1cbf-468c-9c3b-c957e4cf9bff?j=eyJ1IjoiNm1seXYifQ.otOmJiKbuVjJchpYlNRHfEdUeScpGrrwie9zwfsSQuI) of Americans say t

NO to Criminal Slush Fund

Please support legislation to block Trump’s $1.8 billion slush fund. This fund is blatantly corrupt and will funnel taxpayer dollars to convicted criminals and insurrectionists at the expense of the American public. I also ask that the Congressmember move to impeach Trump for repeatedly defying the

Waste, Fraud, Abuse Opportunity: Vote YES to the Slush Fund Act

PLEASE support Rep Larson’s SLUSH FUND Act (https://substack.com/redirect/3f6fc979-dd23-409b-9786-274e231cf245?j=eyJ1IjoiNm1seXYifQ.otOmJiKbuVjJchpYlNRHfEdUeScpGrrwie9zwfsSQuI), which would tax payments out of Trump’s 1.8B slush fund at 100%, thereby returning every dollar back to the government.

Vote down extraneous spending and vote FOR Americans!

Sir(s): I should probably address this to Senator Kim only since Congressman Kean is missing in action as usual and Senator Booker is missing his grip on reality, but I digress. What- and I cannot stress this enough- the HECK- is happening? We ask for representation and instead we get… blue MAHA?

Everyone deserves an informed vote!

I just watched a TikTok video about a group of Trump supporters in West Virginia who have lost access to their Medicaid and food stamps and don’t understand why. Voter education in this country seems to be reserved for the functionally literate- but why on earth in the wealthiest country in the worl

Time for this Thief in Chief to GO

Donald Trump’s blatantly illegal theft of 1.8 billion dollars of our taxpayer money is enraging and unacceptable. It’s the most corrupt and self-dealing act of his corrupt and self-dealing presidency. Congress needs to use whatever tools it has at its disposal to stop it. Also, Congress must impeach

Call Out Islamophobic Hate Speech

It is yet again horrific that three people were shot and killed yesterday at the Islamic Center of San Diego. We need common sense gun laws, and we also need Republicans to stop using Islamophobic language. Yesterday’s violence didn’t come out of a vacuum. Hateful speech is never OK, and Republicans

Explain the budget. Seriously. We’re waiting.

🚫healthcare, food, affordable gas, social security, social service benefits, childcare, livable wage, housing, etc. ✅ ballroom, war, embargo, blockades, fancy trips, etc. Do you really not see a problem here? Make better choices.

I don’t want another penny of my taxpayer dollars to go toward ICE and Border Patrol. Republicans already voted to give them the budget of a small army last year, and now I see you are trying to use the reconciliation process to give them billions more. These goons are making us all LESS safe. Not m

No on the Recon Bill

I want my MOCs to vote no on the latest GOP reconciliation bill. ICE and CBP are lawless, brutal agencies that are already wildly overfunded. Trump’s ballroom is an insult to working Americans. And our national debt is out of control. There is literally no argument FOR approving this funding. Vote n

Time to Impeach the Lot

I am disgusted that Donald Trump is going to get a 1.7 billion dollar settlement from the IRS (https://substack.com/redirect/b7f45a1a-0023-422d-8899-7d211c272e88?j=eyJ1IjoiNm1seXYifQ.otOmJiKbuVjJchpYlNRHfEdUeScpGrrwie9zwfsSQuI)—taxpayer money that he plans on disbursing to January 6 criminals and ot

Raise the Federal Minimum Wage to 25$

I understand that a group of Democratic representatives, including Reps. Delia Ramirez and Analilia Mejia, just introduced the Living Wage for All act (https://substack.com/redirect/2df8d6f0-2375-471a-849f-2aac8e4e100f?j=eyJ1IjoiNm1seXYifQ.otOmJiKbuVjJchpYlNRHfEdUeScpGrrwie9zwfsSQuI), a bill that wo

Stop the outrageous anti-weaponization fund now.

The anti weaponization fund is an outrage and only one more example of the self dealing nature of the Trump administration. It must be stopped and brought to the public’s attention immediately.

From a verified voter in Bridgewater, NJ

It's time to resign. You have been missing in action for too long. Regardless as to whatever private matter you are dealing with, it's clear you are unable to perform your duties. In the meantime, NJ-07 has no representation in congress. Do the right thing for once and resign. Now.

The U.S. is failing our future. Feed the children!

The United States of America is failing in ALL aspects of international standards. No healthcare. No access to quality education. No housing. No food. No empathy. It is a national disgrace that in one of the wealthiest nations in the world, American children are still sitting in classrooms with emp

No to the Waste, Fraud, Abuse Reconciliation Bill

I fully oppose Republicans’ reconciliation bill that gives ICE and CBP another 70B—and Trump’s ballroom 1B more—while our national debt is exploding and Republicans are stripping healthcare from Americans. Vote no, please. Talk about Waste and Fraud and Abuse.

House Bill to Stop Halt Checks when GVMT is SHUT

I understand that the Senate just advanced a bill to withhold salaries for members of Congress during a government shutdown. I want the Congressmember to support it when it comes to the House. And the salaries should be history — no getting it when the government reopens. You are not TSA…you are n

Trump said it- OUT LOUD- he doesn’t care about struggling Americans. FIRE HIM!

It finally happened- Trump said the quiet part out loud. He doesn’t think about struggling Americans’ financial hardships when making decisions. Will you move to impeach now? Is this the line in the sand yet? WE THE PEOPLE are suffering and our president does not care. Does that not rattle you at a

NO to the Ballroom Bill

I strongly oppose Republicans’ so-called “Ballroom Bill,” which gives more money to ICE, CBP, and Trump’s hated ballroom while adding 71B to the deficit. Americans are dying for lack of healthcare, we can’t afford groceries, we can’t pay our utility bills, can’t put gas in our cars. That money shoul

Hold Congressmember Kiggans Accoutnable

Rep. Jen Kiggans needs to resign for agreeing with a radio host that Hakkem Jeffries should “get [his] cotton-picking hands off of Virginia.” I am disgusted by the blatant racism being spewed by members of the Republican Party.

Tell Trump to go fly a kite!

In this economy, it already causes me nausea to spend $100 bill. Please don’t make it worse by approving Trump’s proposal to put his face on it. If he wants to replace Ben Franklin, the least hey can do is fly a kite in a lightning storm. That’s the bare minimum.

Investigate Brendan Carr

Again and again, Brendan Carr has engaged in textbook abuses of power as chair of the FCC. He’s leading an attack on our freedom of speech, and you must force his removal to protect the First Amendment. Carr has repeatedly tried to censor media critics of the White House and even accurate press co

There is no integrity in voter suppression. Tell Trump no to his “army.”

President Trump states he is putting together an election integrity army with the expectation of sending them to polling stations around the country during midterm elections. You know who else does stuff like that? Dictatorships poorly veiled as democracies. Intimidation measures in voting is voter
