President Trump said he doesn't "give a damn" about Americans struggling to afford gas. Yeah, we can tell. Americans have had enough of his failed policies that enrich billionaires while the rest of us are crushed by rising costs and another forever war.

💬 19🔁 11❤ 17Oct 28, 2026

The only myth is that President Trump would bring down costs “on day one.”

💬 5🔁 44❤ 163Oct 27, 2026

It's no secret that Washington has to get the national debt under control. But Republicans don't like to talk about how they wasted trillions of dollars on tax breaks for billionaires. It's time to make them pay their fair share so we can fix our debt. https://t.co/JmsjG1rWCF

💬 11🔁 7❤ 21Oct 27, 2026

It was an honor to join Feliz Filadelfia as they celebrate the improvements to Hammond Fields. I’m proud to have secured $500,000 in federal funding to help ensure kids in Olney and the surrounding neighborhoods have a safe place to get outside and learn important lessons. https://t.co/Q445icaggP

💬 5🔁 7❤ 16Oct 26, 2026

Glad to hear Officer Rodriguez has been released from the hospital after the ambush that took Sgt. Shane Seiber’s life. We owe an incredible debt to the officers who risk their lives to keep us safe. I will continue praying for Officer Rodriguez and for Sgt. Seiber’s family.

💬 0🔁 4❤ 19Oct 24, 2026

Do you know why you don't hear Republicans talk about their "Big Beautiful Bill" anymore? Because they know they betrayed working people. Reversing Trump's disastrous health care cuts must be Congress's top priority so we can bring down costs for American families. https://t.co/xzOYtqSKKV

💬 72🔁 56❤ 154Oct 23, 2026

Instead of lowering costs, Trump cut health care, gave tax breaks to billionaires, and started another forever war. It’s no wonder the American people are feeling terrible about this economy — and they are right.

💬 30🔁 18❤ 62Oct 23, 2026

Donald Trump has chosen to betray Ukraine in exchange for flattery from Putin. Trump's weakness is a threat to our safety at home and to our allies in Europe. I stand with Ukraine, and I won't stop working to give the Ukrainian people the support they need to defend themselves. https://t.co/uJPA0mDy0e

💬 526🔁 288❤ 1,185Oct 22, 2026

Americans have been loud and clear that they want affordable health care and lower costs. Instead of listening, Republicans in Washington cut Americans' health care so they could give billionaires massive tax breaks.

💬 112🔁 25❤ 49Oct 22, 2026

Trump's corruption and his cost-of-living crisis are out of control. His Republican enablers in Washington have looked the other way — I won't. I will do everything in my power with @housebudgetdems to make Trump's administration answer for it all. https://t.co/putsVq4cdJ

How these are counted

Each roll call takes the policy area the Library of Congress gave the bill it is about; a vote on an amendment counts under its bill. 468 of the House’s 676 roll calls this Congress have an issue. Left out as procedural (208): votes on House rules and the previous question, motions to recommit or adjourn, quorum calls and the Speaker election. “With the Democratic majority” counts every issue vote on which most Democrats voted the same way, Yea or Nay. “Against both parties” = most Democrats and most Republicans voted one way and this member the other. “With the Republican majority” = a party-line vote (most of each party on opposite sides) on which this member sided with the Republicans. Independents count with the party they caucus with.
