Republicans have sent Congress home for Memorial Day weekend
It’s unacceptable that Republicans have sent Congress home for Memorial Day weekend while simultaneously pushing our country to the brink of default and threatening the health care and benefits of millions of veterans. In my district alone, a Republican default crisis would jeopardize Social Security payments for 59,000 families and put health benefits at risk for 163,000 residents who get their health insurance through Medicare, Medicaid, or Veterans Affairs coverage.
