The Trump administration is canceling a Biden plan that would have required airlines to pay passengers cash when their flight is disrupted and it’s the airline’s fault. This would have put money back in Americans’ pockets. Not anymore.

The Trump administration is trying to convince you that they are lowering food costs by removing the tariffs that increased prices in the first place. Don’t believe their lies.

Blame the former President, and try to convince Americans that costs are down, not up. That’s Trump’s “strategy” to bring down prices.

Trump’s Deputy Attorney General and former personal lawyer went to meet with Epstein co-conspirator Maxwell in prison in July. Then she was moved to a lower security prison. Now she’s getting special treatment. Why?

When my hometown of Sumter, SC is mentioned, I need to set the record straight. 1. That plant was initiated under Biden, not Trump. 2. It's tied to EVs, which Trump calls a hoax. 3. Trump's "big, beautiful bill" will kill thousands of EV jobs. Facts matter.

Yes, there is a split screen. Democrats who are fighting to lower health care costs. And Republicans who refuse to do anything to address costs, and are in fact kicking millions of Americans off their health care. The contrast really couldn’t be clearer.

Trump put tariffs on things not grown in the U.S. (coffee, bananas, etc.), causing prices to go up. Then they turn around and remove the tariffs and claim they are lowering prices. Scott, the American people aren’t stupid.

On Veterans Day, we honor all who served—and the families who stood beside them. Your sacrifice, your courage, and your commitment to our country will never be forgotten. Thank you for your service.

The Trump administration is returning to the Supreme Court after losing an appeal of a court order to fully pay November SNAP benefits. That means SNAP funds will be delayed further. Trump's fighting to keep people from having food. It's astonishing.

Trump is sounding like a broken record. When is he going to stop lying? Undocumented immigrants can’t receive health insurance subsidized by the federal government. Plain and simple.

Are you getting less food for what you pay at the store this Thanksgiving? That’s “fake news” according to the President.

Trump would rather talk himself into believing everything is “far less expensive” under him than actually doing anything to make things less expensive. It’s truly astonishing.

Trump is in denial about his failed policies and doesn’t want to hear about Americans struggling with high costs. I know he is frustrated that voters made him hear about it on Tuesday, but we’ll keep making him hear about it until families get some relief.

A judge ordered the Trump administration to pay full SNAP benefits for November by today. They’re appealing. Yes, that’s right: instead of accepting this judge’s order to feed Americans, Trump is asking other judges for permission to let them go hungry.

This government shutdown is about 20 million Americans being faced with huge monthly premium increases or losing health care entirely. That might be “nothing” to Republicans, but that’s definitely something to everyday people.

SNAP recipients: Nov. benefits are delayed but are being processed as ordered by courts. However, payments will be smaller than usual. The Trump Administration has the authority to pay full Nov. benefits but is refusing—they're trying to use hunger as leverage in shutdown talks.

We are 10 months into Trump’s presidency and Republican control of Washington. The only major thing they’ve accomplished is Trump’s “big beautiful bill,” which kicks 10 million Americans off their health care, strips food assistance from millions more, and hands $1T in tax cuts to the top 1%.

Yesterday Trump said he’d violate court orders and continue holding SNAP benefits hostage, forcing Americans to go hungry. Thankfully, members of his own administration ignored his rant and are issuing partial payments as directed by courts. Trump is out of control.

This government shutdown is now the longest in American history. Federal employees are still furloughed or working without pay, funding for essential programs has run out, and 20 million Americans are staring down health care premiums that have doubled.

Today is Election Day in South Carolina and across the country. From races for governor to local offices to ballot questions, every election is important and affects your daily life. Make sure you get out and vote today. www.vote.org

According to the Department of Social Services, South Carolinians will not receive SNAP benefits next month if the government shutdown continues.

Does anyone feel like their wages are rising at record pace while their energy and grocery bills are coming down?

The Trump administration is prepared to hold Americans' SNAP benefits hostage and let children and seniors go hungry rather than meet with Democrats to end the shutdown. Republicans need to stop the games and start acting like adults. This is people’s food we are talking about.

No, this White House “renovation” is not like the others. If only President Trump were as focused on getting the government open, distributing SNAP payments, and preventing health care premiums from increasing as he is on getting his ballroom built.

SNAP has a contingency fund that legally must be used to extend benefits into November, but the Trump Admin is refusing to follow the law. I signed a letter urging the Agriculture Secretary to change course. Now Democratic Attorneys General are suing.

Rosa is right. The Trump administration is saying it lacks authority to use the SNAP contingency fund for November benefits. Not true. They’re illegally withholding the funds to put further pain on Americans during the shutdown. They have the money, but refuse to use it.

The SNAP crisis could actually be resolved if the White House would stop illegally refusing to use a reserve fund to continue SNAP payments. If Americans lose their SNAP benefits, it’s because Trump wanted them to.

I get a real chuckle out of Republicans saying year after year they are coming up with a health care plan, but never actually showing us what it is. Republicans gutted Medicaid. Now they want to gut the ACA too. That’s their health care plan.

The Trump administration has contingency money for SNAP—they just aren’t planning on using it. If SNAP benefits don’t go out next month, it will be because the Trump administration didn’t want them to.

Let’s recap Trump’s week: Demolished the East Wing of the White House—without any Congressional approval—to make room for a $300 million ballroom funded by wealthy donors.

Senate Democrats introduced two bills that would have paid ALL federal workers, from military and law enforcement to Social Security workers. Republicans blocked both of them.

The cornerstone of Obamacare is the subsidies—the tax credits that help Americans afford health insurance. They are precisely why the law works so well for 20 million Americans. This incoherent question is just Jim Jordan trying to wrestle away Americans’ health care.

The Trump Administration is claiming they don’t have SNAP funding for next month. That’s not true. SNAP has a contingency fund that could last well into November. If Americans don’t get their SNAP benefits, it will be because the Trump Administration decided to stop them.

The White House (or what’s left of it) is working hard to persuade the American people that Trump’s $300m ballroom is a great idea, and spending zero time trying to save Americans’ health care premiums from skyrocketing.

While 40 million Americans are at risk of being unable to put food on the table without SNAP, and millions more at risk of losing health care or paying skyrocketing premiums, Trump is boasting of his $300 million ballroom where he can host lavish parties for his donors.

Democrats’ main priorities are saving Americans’ health care and lowering costs. Donald Trump’s main priority is a White House ballroom. Don’t believe me? Let’s see what his Press Secretary says:

Give me a break. Republicans’ “big beautiful bill” strips Medicaid from 7.5million and weakens the ACA to cut care for millions of others. The cuts were so drastic they had to include funds to try to keep hospitals from closing. Now they want to cut the ACA even more.

I'm hearing from folks across S.C. concerned about health care premiums skyrocketing. Yet Republicans refuse to reconvene the House so we can address our constituents' concerns. Mr. Speaker, bring members back to D.C. so we can open the government and save Americans' health care.

Keeping Obamacare premiums from skyrocketing shouldn’t be a partisan issue. Just as many Republicans are enrolled in a HealthCare.gov plan as Democrats. Democrats are fighting for all Americans’ health care. Republicans are fighting for their rich donors. It’s that simple.

75 years ago, my friend Ronald McNair was born. Denied books as a child at his segregated South Carolina library, he later became the second Black American in space. And today, that library bears his name. Happy Birthday, Ron. Your legacy continues to inspire us.

A new report suggests that more than two-thirds of Trump’s tariffs will be paid by consumers. Prices are already too high, and Trump is slapping his tariff costs on top of it.

Only 21% of S.C. businesses with fewer than 50 employees can afford to provide health insurance for their employees. These employees rely on HealthCare.gov to get coverage. If Republicans allow premiums to skyrocket, small businesses and their employees will get hit.

600,000 South Carolinians—small business owners, young families, people nearing retirement—face soaring Obamacare premiums in weeks. Many already live paycheck to paycheck. Republicans must join Democrats to protect their care and reopen the government.

Due to Trump’s tariffs, small businesses are suffering. Many are freezing hiring, cutting employee salaries, and even having to let people go. And now with Trump refusing to address skyrocketing Obamacare premiums, many will lose their health care too.

American citizens are being detained by Trump's masked ICE agents. They are terrorizing American communities. Our immigration policies should improve American lives. Arresting Americans and tormenting our communities is the complete opposite of that.

With a lot of Republicans out there saying the Affordable Care Act is a “scam”, let me just take a moment to explain what they mean by that. 🧵

WATCH: @repjamesclyburn.bsky.social responds to U.S. Rep. Ralph Norman’s op-ed urging Trump to push South Carolina to eliminate his district, saying Norman – now running for the Republican nomination for S.C. governor – “wants the whole game to be rigged in his favor.”

PLUS: Republicans are reaching desperate measures in the blame game over the government shutdown. They’re now claiming the No Kings protests are responsible for the prolonged stalemate. @repjamesclyburn.bsky.social joins The Weeknight to discuss the latest.

The Trump Administration is abandoning American communities as they recover from natural disasters.

Trump's Big Ugly Bill sold out American families to line the pockets of billionaires. Now, ahead of the holiday season, inflation in the grocery aisle is picking up. Corporations get rich. American families foot the bill. This is Trump's economy.
