Republicans control the House, Senate and White House. This is the Trump shutdown.

Me and my fellow Democrats want to protect your healthcare. It’s that simple. Donald Trump and Republicans don’t care if your premiums go up 75%. This is the Trump shutdown.

Donald Trump is openly declaring war on American cities while speaking to generals at the Pentagon, all while the government is on the verge of shutting down. Abhorrent is an understatement.

If the government shuts down it will be the fault of Donald Trump and Republicans. While Democrats want to protect Affordable Care Act subsidies, they are fine letting them expire. It’s wrong, and must be stopped.

As the government shutdown deadline nears—my message is simple: I’m ready to fight like hell to protect healthcare for Americans.

Today is a great day to release the Epstein files.

There’s no better day than today to release all of the Epstein files. As a member of Congress, I signed the discharge petition. I won’t stop fighting until the files are public.

I signed onto the discharge petition to demand the release of the Epstein files, and I won’t stop fighting until they are released to the public. Americans deserve the truth.

Speaker Johnson is now walking back his claim that Trump was an informant for the FBI. How about we just release the files and let the American people see the truth?

Vaccines are safe. Anything to the contrary is a complete lie. This dangerous decision by Florida must be reversed immediately.

I fully support the discharge petition to release the Epstein files. Every Republican who cares about truth and transparency should do the same.

We must believe the survivors and amplify their voices. We need to release the Epstein files. Enough is enough.

As Congress comes back into session today, one of the most important questions we need to keep asking is: Where are the Epstein files?

The tragedy in Minneapolis today is horrific. My heart aches for the victims of this school shooting and their families. Every child deserves to feel safe in their classroom. Gun violence is a public health crisis, and we must confront it. Thoughts and prayers are not enough—we need change.

Donald Trump wants to distract the world from the fact that he hasn’t (and won’t) release the Epstein files. When Congress comes back into session, you can count on us to continue fighting for their release.

A federal judge labeled the Trump Administration’s efforts to unseal Epstein grand jury material a “diversion.” Why? Because the DOJ has the files—release them!

How about releasing the Epstein files instead?

Congressman Shri Thanedar @shrithanedar.bsky.social · 14/08/2025
I won't stop working until Congress gets ahold of the Epstein files. We must keep talking about them. We cannot let Donald Trump distract the public.

Instead of federalizing DC, Trump should release the Epstein files. If he won’t, Congress will work to get them.

When Congress gets back from our August recess, we must continue pushing for the release of the Epstein files. The White House cannot get away with concealing them from the public.

On this day in 1965, the Voting Rights Act became law. Today, voter suppression is alive and well. In Texas, they’re erasing seats before elections even happen. The fight for every voice to be heard is far from over.

He’s still not releasing the Epstein files…

I was ready to release the Epstein files, but Mike Johnson sent us home for the August recess instead. Release. The. Files.

The Trump Administration must release the entire Epstein files. The public deserves to know.

I’m not afraid to hold Donald Trump accountable for his actions. Time and time again, I’ve voted against his horrible legislation, and put the people of Michigan first. I’m just getting started.

I proudly voted NO on the Republican budget bill because I would never cut Medicaid or SNAP for Michiganders. In 2026, we can start working to roll back these cuts. Give Democrats the House and let us get to work.

I voted NO on the Republican budget bill because I would never cut Medicaid or SNAP for Michiganders. Give Democrats the majorities in 2026, and let us work to bring back this critical funding.

I voted NO on this budget bill before, and I’ll do it again. We cannot claim to support American families yet gut their access to Medicaid and SNAP.

Congressman Shri Thanedar @shrithanedar.bsky.social · 01/07/2025
I voted NO on the budget bill in the House because cuts to Medicaid and SNAP are unacceptable. Senators should do the same today.

This is a terrible decision that curbs the ability of the judiciary to protect the rights of all Americans from unconstitutional executive orders. It is a sad day in America.

Congressman Shri Thanedar @shrithanedar.bsky.social · 26/06/2025
Michiganders do not approve of the “big beautiful” budget bill. I proudly voted NO in the House and will continue to vote NO on any bill that cuts healthcare for millions. The Senate should do the same.

It’s been three years since the Supreme Court ended Roe v. Wade. The damage is real — women forced to travel for care, doctors criminalized, lives upended. The fight continues until we restore and protect reproductive rights nationwide.

I voted NO on the budget bill in the House. Every Senator should follow suit. We cannot cut Medicaid or SNAP for hardworking Americans.

Instead of funding a military parade, we should be funding SNAP and Medicaid. It’s that simple.

Donald Trump is spending $134 million to send National Guardsmen to Los Angeles and $45 million on a military parade in Washington, D.C. Meanwhile, he is trying to cut hundreds of millions from Medicaid and SNAP. Don't let him get away with it.

The right to protest is a fundamental right. Peaceful protestors should never be met with force. This is an unacceptable statement coming from the President.

Elon Musk may have deleted his tweets connecting Donald Trump to Epstein, but the fact remains that Pam Bondi must release the Epstein files to the public. We deserve to know the truth.

I'm calling on Pam Bondi to immediately release the Epstein files and inform the public of whether or not Donald Trump is listed.

Michiganders should not have to die earlier merely because some of my Republican colleagues in Congress think that they are going to die anyways. We need to protect Medicaid and SNAP.
