He has championed a national, total abortion ban with no exceptions for rape or incest, and he wants to slash your hard-earned social security benefits. At a time when Congress faces urgent pressures on a domestic and global scale, inexperienced extremism is not the answer. “Republicans rejected every attempt Democrats made to work together on behalf of the American people. With a Republican majority in the House and Democratic majority in the Senate, bipartisanship is the only path forward.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:49:26Z |
