MAGA Republicans want to cut taxes for very large corporations and eliminate the power we just gave Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices.

We must reject reckless proposals from Congressional Republicans to take our economy hostage in order to cut taxes for the wealthy and large corporations, bring back failed trickle-down policies that would ship jobs overseas, and gut programs that are lowering costs for seniors.

We are continuing to fight to lower costs for families.
That includes historic action to lower prescription drug costs for seniors, capping insulin at $35, and allowing Medicare to negotiate lower prices.

Federal investment attracts private investment. It creates jobs and industries, and it demonstrates we’re all in this together.
Since I took office, we’ve attracted commitments for more than $435 billion in private investment in American manufacturing and American energy.

From Florida to North Carolina to the U.S. House of Representatives, we’ve seen Republican officials double down on dangerous bills that make our schools, places of worship, and communities less safe.

MAGA Republicans in Congress are putting our economy in jeopardy by threatening to refuse to pay America’s bills. Bills that took 200 years to accumulate.
That would mean for the first time, America would default on its debt.

We’ve created 12.6M jobs since I took office.
The unemployment rate is close to the lowest it has been in more than 50 years.
Thanks to the policies we have put in place, the recovery is creating good jobs you can raise a family on, pulling more Americans into the labor force.

A federal district judge in Texas ruled that a prescription medication that has been available for more than 22 years, approved by the FDA, and used safely and effectively by millions of women should no longer be approved in the United States.

Earlier, I spoke to Reps Jones, Pearson, and Johnson to thank them for their leadership and courage in the face of a blatant disregard of our nation’s democratic values.
Our country needs to take action on gun violence — to do that we need more voices like theirs speaking out.

Most Americans want lawmakers to act on commonsense gun safety reforms that will save lives. Instead, Republican officials across America double down on dangerous bills that make our schools, places of worship, and communities less safe.

After a tragic mass shooting in Tennessee, state Republican lawmakers called votes to expel three Democratic legislators who stood in solidarity with students and families.
The expulsion of lawmakers who engaged in peaceful protest is shocking, undemocratic, and unprecedented.

And what are GOP officials focused on?
Punishing lawmakers who joined thousands of peaceful protesters calling for action.
It's shocking, undemocratic, and without precedent.

Our plan to invest in America is working.
Here’s what it looks like across the country: a record 12.4 million new jobs, including 800,000 manufacturing jobs, since we came to office.
That’s more jobs created in two years than any president has created in four.
