NDP Veteran's & Military Families Caucus

This is a Republican shutdown. They won the 2024 election and claimed a landslide and smashing mandate. The Republicans control all of the branches.

Joe Biden never had 60 Democratic votes and the government was always funded. Obama had 60 Democratic votes in the Senate for only 6 months out of an 8 year presidency. The government was always funded.

The Senate Democrats offered a one year extension of the ACA tax credits but the Republicans swiftly rejected the offer.

The Senate Republicans refuse to negotiate and the House Republicans have been on a long, undeserved vacation. Trump is also on vacation.

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene posted: "I'm going to go against everyone on this issue because when the tax credits expire this year my own adult children's insurance premiums for 2026 are going to DOUBLE, along with all the wonderful families and hard-working people in my district…If Republican Senators wanted to pass the CR and reopen the government they could, by using the nuclear option to override the 60 vote rule and pass the CR with a simple majority vote."

The Senate GOP needs to put on their big boy pants and pass their 114% premium increase on a party line vote. They can then try to explain it to the voters in 2026. Governing is hard.

People are about to be hit with one of the biggest premium hikes in over a decade and Trump and the Republicans would rather keep the federal government closed than do anything about it.

MAGA Means Morons Are Governing America.

Throw the rascals out! Blue wave 2026!

Today and every Friday, we wear red to Remember Everyone Deployed. It’s a small gesture with a big meaning—to honor the brave men and women serving far from home and to show we stand with them, always.

Whether it's a shirt, a pin, or a ribbon, wearing red is a way to let our deployed service members know they are never forgotten.

Let’s keep them in our hearts and prayers until they’re safely back home.

NEW: VoteVets Responds To Doug Collins being named to head the VA: "George Washington repeatedly wrote that taking care of those who serve is paramount in ensuring the best of America keep enlisting to serve in the future... By taking a wrecking ball to the VA, as Project 2025 laid out, and now Donald Trump and Doug Collins will carry out, we most assuredly will discourage service in the future. That will leave us far less safe than we are today." #votevets #veterans #veteran #suckersandlosers #trump #maga #traitortrump #usmilitary #militarylife #militaryfamilies #militaryfamily #usa #nationalsecurity #vote #voteblue #veteransvoteblue #freedom #j6 #jan6 #jan6neveragain #neveragain #neverforget #project2025 #trumpwillshootprotesters #project2025 #trumpvance #foryou #secdef #nationalsecurity

NEW: VoteVets Responds To Tulsi Gabbard Being Put In Charge Of Intelligence "Putting Tulsi Gabbard in charge of our intelligence, which keeps Americans safe here and abroad, is dangerous and reckless...Many warned that Trump would dispense of all guardrails in a second term, so every whim of his would be carried out without question or protest. We are now seeing exactly what that looks like." #votevets #veterans #veteran #suckersandlosers #trump #maga #traitortrump #usmilitary #militarylife #militaryfamilies #militaryfamily #usa #nationalsecurity #vote #voteblue #veteransvoteblue #freedom #j6 #jan6 #jan6neveragain #neveragain #neverforget #project2025 #trumpwillshootprotesters #project2025 #trumpvance #foryou #tulsigabbard #nationalintelligence
