Families are waiting in food bank lines. Millions of federal workers are either furloughed or working without paychecks. And *this* is what y'all are focused on? Throwing Gatsby themed parties, building ballrooms, and handing out favors for your billionaire buddies? Shame.

Republicans shamelessly voted for this mess. Will they finally speak up now that Trump wants to drill off their own coasts? Or will they stay silent while our coasts face the risks of oil slicks?

While millions of Americans go without a paycheck during the Republican shutdown, the Trump administration is working overtime to make sure Big Polluters don’t miss theirs.

Polluted waterways. Despoiled national monuments. The Trump administration just approved a copper mining expansion in Utah near Bears Ears without considering the impacts on local communities. This was a polluter giveaway in the middle of a government shutdown and they thought nobody would notice.

If they can do this to the White House, imagine what they’d do to Yosemite or the Lincoln Memorial.

Trump is using the Republican shutdown to give Big Oil exactly what it wants: drilling right off our beaches and coasts. Ranking Member @rephuffman.bsky.social: “This sneak attack on our coasts is the worst-case scenario we’ve warned about for years.” www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Trump's $300 MILLION ballroom is being paid for by corporations w/ active federal contracts and crypto firms tied to his allies. RM @rephuffman.bsky.social, @oversightdemocrats.house.gov RM Robert Garcia & @repyassansari.bsky.social are demanding EVERY record on these raging conflicts of interest.

Every day more Americans get notices they won’t be able to afford Republicans’ new health care rates, yet Trump is more focused on meddling in foreign imports, buying new private jets, and building a gilded ballroom. We're almost 4 weeks into the shutdown, and they're still nowhere to be seen.

Maybe literally anything else Americans are struggling with could be a priority? Cost of living? Health care? National security? Just a thought.

Donald Trump is demolishing part of the White House—the People’s House—to build his own grand ballroom and put his billionaire friends’ names all over it. @robertgarcia.house.gov, @repyassansari.bsky.social, and @naturalresources.bsky.social's @rephuffman.bsky.social are demanding answers.

They shut down the government, fired thousands of workers, and then tore down the East Wing to build Trump his palace. The only thing this White House serves is Trump’s ego.

While Americans go without paychecks or healthcare, Trump is demolishing the East Wing to build himself a private $250 million gilded ballroom funded by billionaires. 🚨🚨 Ranking Members @rephuffman.bsky.social, @robertgarcia.bsky.social & @repyassansari.bsky.social are demanding FULL TRANSPARENCY.

TRUMP ADMIN ANNOUNCES NEXT PHASE IN WHITE HOUSE DEMOLITION. GILDED BALLROOM AHEAD OF SCHEDULE.

If you love our public lands, this hits you. Republicans shut down the government so Americans can’t see what they’re doing: firing over 2,000 park rangers and staff who protect our parks and wildlife so Big Oil can cash in when this is all over.

Alaska is now running one of the largest rescue missions in state history. This is where Republicans' climate denialism has gotten us: gutting life-saving grants that might’ve helped spare these villages and homes from catastrophic flooding.

Just last week, the Trump administration greenlit 13 million acres of new coal leases and canceled billions in clean energy projects. Americans deserve better than doubling down on 18th century technology while 21st century storms wash homes into the ocean.

The Trump Admin is using the government shutdown to cancel energy funding so that your utility bills go up. A Trump shutdown completely meant to enrich Billionaires! All at your expense.

Republicans forced a government shutdown. Now national parks across the country are closed, abandoned, and without rangers.

TRUTH Social, my ass.

The world lost a beloved voice for nature today. Dr. Jane Goodall spent her life proving that humans are not apart from nature, but part of it. Her research, activism, and hope shaped modern conservation and inspired generations. She showed us that empathy, curiosity, and (1/2)

Trump and Republicans don’t want government to work for you, they want it to work only for their billionaire buddies. Thousands of public servants are being forced out and more mass firings are on the way. They're doing everything they can to make sure you won't get the services you're owed.

Congrats to Chunk!! He’s clearly more qualified to be President than the guy who can’t even keep the government open without driving up healthcare costs.

Republicans control the government and refused to negotiate. They own this shutdown. They're cutting healthcare and abandoning our national parks. They wanted this.

[email protected] Trump just ordered the Park Service to remove signs and exhibits relating to slavery. What the hell is going on here? It is pure propaganda. It's un-American.

Wildland firefighters are getting sick and dying from smoke exposure. @housedemocrats.bsky.social demanded better protective gear to keep them safe — and now it's finally on the way.

For decades, wildfire crews breathed toxic smoke without protection. Thanks to pressure from @housedemocrats.bsky.social, the Forest Service is ending its mask ban. 80,000 N95 masks are now stocked and headed to the frontlines of America’s largest wildfires.

👀 @rephuffman.bsky.social on GOP's latest scheme to silence communities, gut environmental protections & shield billionaire polluters: "Who is this legislation actually for? This bill is for corporate polluters & Big Oil donors so they can keep padding their pockets at the expense of Americans."

Diana Furchtgott-Roth — an architect of Project 2025 — just admitted under oath that Republicans’ plan “will cost jobs.”    Trump’s agenda is an attack on good-paying jobs, clean, affordable energy, and working families.

We’re just as perplexed as @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social. House Republicans keep voting for a budget bill that kills the clean energy tax credits, which they themselves said would “result in a 10% increase in electricity costs for consumers by 2026.” End the war on clean, cheap energy. Kill the Bill.

The Republican budget will stick Americans with higher energy bills. End the war on clean, cheap energy. Kill the Bill.

🚨 Senate Republicans just passed Trump’s almost $4 TRILLION Big, Ugly Bill that will: – Hike costs for clean energy while slashing fees for oil and gas – Open up millions of acres of public lands to polluters, no questions asked

BREAKING: The National Park Service. And Interior Secretary Burgum doesn't even know about it. @rephuffman.bsky.social, roll the tape:

The Trump administration is threatening to sell off YOUR public lands to the highest bidder, putting special places, local economies, and vacation plans in jeopardy. Read more here: www.americanprogress.org/article/see-...

🚨 60 million acres of our wildest forests are under attack. President Trump’s rollback of the Roadless Rule is a massive giveaway to billionaire polluters and the logging industry — and it will leave communities more vulnerable to wildfire, drought, and disaster.

Foreign-owned mining corporations have been mining our public lands for free. That ends now. I just secured a commitment from Sec. Burgum to support my plan to finally make them pay up. youtube.com/shorts/u47F2...

Mining giants are extracting your public lands—for free. No royalties. No cleanup. Just destruction. TODAY, I’ll be asking Sec. Burgum why he’s standing with them and not the people. 📺 Tune in - @NRDems www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9Eh...

👀Secretary Burgum just said Park Rangers are like soldiers who don’t get to question orders – even if Trump wants to reopen Alcatraz to “own the libs.” That’s not how a democracy works. That’s how a king rules.

Republicans are pushing the same bill AGAIN that: 💸 Hikes your energy bills by hundreds 🌲 Sells out public lands to billionaire polluters 💡 Guts clean energy across the country

Republicans don’t want you to see what they’re doing. They’re moving in the dead of night to sneak their GOP Tax Scam through, slashing healthcare for millions of Americans, selling off our public lands & handing more tax breaks to billionaires. @rephuffman.bsky.social is calling them out 👇👇

Congress and the American people deserve to know if Elon Musk is enriching himself on the backs of taxpayers.

Earlier this week, House Republicans passed the most shameless anti-environment bill in US history, over the course of a 14 hour markup that went past 1am. But the worst part? Rep. Amodei introduced an 11th hour amendment to give away public lands in Democratic districts.

Let’s be honest: the policies they’re pushing? LITERALLY straight out of Project 2025. The same plan they claimed they had nothing to do with.  Now they’re writing them into law—gutting public lands, rejecting science, and handing out kickbacks to their corporate buddies.   We’re fighting back!

House Republicans looked at America's biggest problems and decided the Gulf of Mexico needed a new name. Bold priorities coming from the GOP.

We have a moral imperative to address climate change, which will have enormous impacts on the future we leave behind for our kids and beyond. Today, at the @naturalresources.bsky.social hearing, I spoke out on the GOP's giveaway to Big Oil, the most sweeping attack on our environment in history.

House Republicans’ budget cuts national park funding, slashes clean air and water protections, and pushes the most extreme anti-environment bill in American history as the cherry on top. Today, while Democrats called out this billionaire giveaway, House Republicans hid in their offices.

@congressmin.bsky.social is right- "the economic impacts of climate change are accelerating." While some in Congress want to kneecap clean energy and favor fossil fuels, @naturalresources.bsky.social are pushing back.

I’m using every single tool at my disposal to stop House Republicans’ Big Oil give away. Our children deserve better.

Today, Republicans are holding a yard sale for America’s backyard. They're jamming through some of the nastiest environmental laws ever seen to give tax cuts to billionaires. Why? Because they want to raise a billion dollars to pay for those tax cuts. youtube.com/shorts/UbLWw...

@rephuffman.bsky.social and @naturalresources.bsky.social are fighting back against Republicans’ plans to give handouts to polluters and billionaires, strip community protections, and put our economy, our climate and our future at risk.
