Republicans couldn’t get out of town fast enough and leave families and workers with their doubling health care bills and no solutions.

Republicans couldn’t make a deadline they knew about all year. Now families and workers are left with the life and death consequences. More from @cnn.com: www.cnn.com/2025/12/19/p...

Republicans handed out $80,000 tax cuts to millionaires earlier this year, but couldn’t find the time to put thousands of dollars in savings back into people’s pockets.

The GOP health care proposal is this year's @merriam-webster.com word of the year: slop. Ranking Member @neal.house.gov:

"Time's up, y'all!" @repgwenmoore.bsky.social:

"The Republican bill was put together with Bubblegum and Elmer's glue last Friday night." Ranking Member @neal.house.gov:

The holidays are here. And so are Trump’s tariffs.

Almost a year of Republicans in complete control: > Unemployment at its highest since 2021 > Nearly no jobs added since April > US manufacturing has been shrinking for 9 months > Households are paying an extra ~$1,200 for tariffs > Layoffs happening in nearly every sector

They both cost the same. Guess which option Republicans chose.

This year, Trump’s tariffs are forcing households to fork over an extra $1,000. And next year, that's only expected to rise more. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

A hallmark of Trump’s America: paying more and getting less. More from @nytimes.com: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/h...

We’re only days away from millions being forced to go without health care entirely next year.

“Where is the beef?” @mikethompson.house.gov:

The best bailout for our farmers is to turn off Trump’s tariffs. @usrepjimmypanetta.bsky.social:

The GOP agenda is failing the American people, and now they are hiding from it. Ranking Member @neal.house.gov:

Key takeaway: No state or district will be spared from bigger health care bills next year.

The GOP health care crisis hasn’t gone away. We’re only days away from millions being priced out of their health care entirely, and Republicans are no closer to offering a fix. Ranking Member @neal.house.gov:

*since the last time Trump was president

Every day, people are being confronted with doubling and tripling costs for health care next year. Are your costs going up? Share your story here: bit.ly/WMHealthCareStory

There’s a new Grinch in town this season: Trump’s tariffs.

The best way to improve America’s global competitiveness is to stop kneecapping our own workers and businesses with Trump’s tariffs. @mikethompson.house.gov:

Remember when Trump’s tariffs were supposed to boost US manufacturing

The only people who think affordability is a scam are those who’ve never had to think twice about rent or bills. @repschneider.bsky.social:

Middle-income households are cutting back their spending this season, while high-income households are ramping it up. This is Trump’s economy working. www.cnn.com/2025/12/01/b...

It is not too late for Republicans to improve affordability if they can find the will to do it. @emily-gee.bsky.social with @americanprogress.bsky.social:

The average household has spent over $700 more since Trump took office.

HSAs are designed for high-income earners—and it’s why Republicans are pushing for it. More on how HSAs are not a substitute for health care coverage: www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

As Republicans scramble to come up with a health care plan, they’re pretending HSAs can do the job. Here's why they can't: www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

This Thanksgiving, the only thing Republicans made more abundant are the costs. See how the Trump Administration is responding to the higher prices in our latest Substack: substack.com/home/post/p-...

The key findings: ▪️ HSAs are not substitutes for health care coverage ▪️ HSAs are not substitutes for health care coverage ▪️ HSAs are not substitutes for health care coverage www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

It’s the season of giving and thanks to Republicans, families are giving up more just to afford it. Ranking Member @neal.house.gov:

Most Americans are saying that Trump’s agenda is making Thanksgiving harder to afford. They’re right. Your Thanksgiving is up nearly 10% this year because of him. tcf.org/content/comm...

Checking in on the affordability message

"The American dream is a disappointment when it comes to health care" "I gave up on the idea of having health care" “I don't want to put ourselves in a position where we're in debt" This health crisis can be alleviated. It's all on Republicans.

🔴 NEW THIS MORNING: @neal.house.gov requested a new GAO report that confirms what we already know: HSA savings accounts are not substitutes for health coverage. Read the report here: www.gao.gov/products/gao...

The Trump Administration was working behind the scenes to kick thousands of older workers with disabilities off Social Security. We fought back and they backed off. This is why we fight to protect Social Security. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

You've likely already spent an additional $700 just trying to stay afloat in Trump's America.

Trump’s priority isn’t your health or your costs, it’s his ego. He’ll watch your health care costs triple just to erase the name Obamacare. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

On Friday, Trump finally seemed to have caught up to what we’ve been saying all along: his tariffs are a tax on the American people. @ms.now with @neal.house.gov’s statement and more: www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Trump knows his tariffs are raising prices

Astrid, Nathan, and Shadene are among millions of Americans watching their health care costs skyrocket because Republicans won’t lift a finger to bring them down. Have a similar story? Share it here: bit.ly/WMHealthCareStory

This is the dumbest timeline to live in

The Trump Administration will move mountains to enrich themselves, bail out Argentina, and slash taxes for billionaires, but will only ease up on everyday people when the pain becomes a political liability. RM @neal.house.gov's full statement: democrats-waysandmeans.house.gov/media-center...

THEY KNOW THAT TARIFFS RAISE COSTS ON CONSUMERS www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Trump and Republicans have made their priorities clear: they’ll raise costs for everyone else so long as it means another tax giveaway for billionaires. That agenda doesn't earn my vote.

Feeling the pinch every time you check out at the grocery store? It’s not just you. It’s Trump’s economy at work.

Stories like Deardra’s are why Democrats are continuing to fight this fight to lower health care costs.
