Last night, the Republican shutdown began. But we didn't get here overnight. This crisis has been nine months in the making. Here's a step-by-step look at how Trump and Republicans have been steering us towards a shutdown all year:

On everything from education to women’s health to wages, Republicans’ latest spending plan is a gut punch to everyday Americans and another whopping win for billionaires and big corporations. Appropriations Committee Democrats are calling it like they see it TODAY at 11 AM: youtu.be/azyKOybUcSQ

When America retreats from the world stage, the working class and middle class pay the price for our weakness. By slashing investments in soft power and kneecapping the State Department, Republicans are guaranteeing a more dangerous world for everyone.

For nearly 60 years, Corporation for Public Broadcasting helped fund the local stations that taught our kids to read and write, kept us informed during emergencies, and aired our local football games. CPB made life better for everyday Americans, and Republicans killed it.

In what world does gutting food stamps and housing assistance lower costs for the working class? Republican cuts have always been about transferring wealth to billionaires and big corporations, leaving the rest of us with scraps.
