Senator Amy Klobuchar: The fact that when people are hurting this much and they literally can't pay their bills and insurance premiums, that he then spends government money instead of to help people pay for their insurance, he spends it on an ad to glorify himself.

"They're ripping health care away from people all across the country, including in rural America." @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is right. Republicans gutted $1 TRILLION from health care for billionaire tax breaks. Hospitals are closing and families are paying the price. Americans are sick of it.

Rep. Pingree: People in Maine are very angry about the pending cuts to Medicaid. They’re worried about their hospitals closing. And they’re deeply concerned that having Republicans in the majority right now amounts to a rubber stamp for the president.

Morning Joe: They don't care about working Americans. If they did, they wouldn't have passed the bill they passed, which gutted health care for working Americans and gave tax cuts to billionaires and multinational corporations and millionaires.

Senator Schumer's message to Senate Republicans: Stop Trump's health care sabotage and vote to protect your constituents' coverage — or own every lost health care policy, every closed hospital, every skyrocketing premium that follows.

013

Morning Joe: We warned Republicans every day, while they were considering voting for that bill, that if they did it, they were going to savage rural health care. They did it because they had to give tax cuts to millionaires, like Roger Marshall, billionaires, and multinational corporations.

Trump and Republicans gutted Medicaid to hand tax cuts to billionaires. Medicaid pays for roughly 4 in 10 births in America. @kamalaharris.com: 80% of maternal deaths are avoidable, and the leading reason women die is simply not being able to get care. This is the GOP health care crisis.
