Elon Musk spent his year inflicting as much pain as possible on America’s federal workers and breaking the essential services that working people rely on. 
 And now he’s being handed a trillion-dollar paycheck on a silver platter.   Disgusting.

The Trump shutdown is now the longest EVER. Federal workers are locked out of their jobs or working without pay. Health insurance costs and prices on everything are spiking. Everyone is feeling the pain. Fund the government. Fix the health care crisis. Put working people first.

This is the longest shutdown in history - a record the Trump admin should be ashamed of. Health insurance costs are skyrocketing. Millions of working people are losing food assistance. Trump and his allies in Congress need to put working people first. https://bit.ly/4ovmkjK
