Energy and Commerce Democrats
Official account of the House Energy & Commerce Committee Democrats. Led by Ranking Member Frank Pallone, Jr.
- @ocasio-cortez.house.gov: Georgia has the THIRD HIGHEST number of uninsured Americans in the country, and Republicans want to model our Medicaid system after it.
- Cutting Medicaid by $715B and removing millions of Americans through red tape and copays = "morally bankrupt and politically suicidal" Don't just take it from @repgreglandsman.bsky.social—Republican Senator Josh Hawley said it too!
- Reposted by Energy and Commerce DemocratsIt is 1:00 am, and we are just getting to the Medicaid provisions. They are trying to take health insurance away from 13.7 million Americans in the dead of night.
- Debating catastrophic Medicaid cuts for millions of Americans should not be happening in the middle of the night. Yet Republicans just rejected a motion by Ranking Member Pallone to recess until the morning—so our markup continues now while the nation sleeps.
- Reposted by Energy and Commerce DemocratsRepublicans think they can hide their dangerous agenda to cut health care & Medicaid by passing it at night. Well, they can’t hide because @energycommerce.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social will continue to shine a spotlight on Republicans’ plans to cut health care for 13.7 million Americans.
- Leader @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social & @repkimschrier.bsky.social break it down: Republican cuts to Medicaid will make people sicker, hospitals & nursing homes will close, health care costs will rise & nearly 14 million Americans lose their health coverage. Democrats are going to continue fighting 🔥
- BREAKING: Non-partisan Congressional Budget Office confirms Republican Medicaid proposals CUT benefits for Americans. No matter how House Republicans try to spin it, this will kick people off their health care.
