Always hidden within a bigger bill.
@RepThomasMassie proposed single issue bills, but no one has an appetite for that. It would end the horse trading and lobbyists.
🌾 CONGRESS IS SLIPPING AMNESTY INTO A FARM LABOR BILL
Don't take my word for it. Read the official summary from the Congressional Research Service.
H.R. 9535, the "Securing Agriculture's Workforce Act." Sponsored by House Agriculture Chairman Glenn Thompson. 61 cosponsors, 52 of them Republicans.
One line tells you everything. The bill "establishes an H-2A visa pathway for current unauthorized agricultural workers who otherwise meet requirements."
Current unauthorized workers. People who are here illegally right now.
The sponsor's pitch: "With the border now secure, it is time to address these shortcomings."
The border is more secure because we finally started enforcing the law. You don't reward that by handing a visa to the people who broke it.
And the timing couldn't be worse. Monday night the President said, "We haven't put the same pressure on waitresses and on farmworkers, etc. Not even close." That's exactly the opening this bill's supporters have been waiting for.
We've seen this movie before. In 1986 Congress created the Special Agricultural Worker program, and it was riddled with fraud, with applicants claiming farm work they never did. My career taught me that every carve-out turns into a business model. Make farm work the safe lane and the fake employment letters will show up by the truckload.
Farmers have a real labor problem and I'm not dismissing it. Fix H-2A. Speed it up. Cut the red tape. Let it run year-round. That's legal labor and I'll support it.
But a visa for people who are here illegally isn't a workforce plan. It's amnesty in overalls.
Call your representative and ask one question: are you one of the 61?

Hakeem Jeffries just got outplayed again—letting Republicans pass a Veterans Day bill cutting future disability pay and raising home loan fees for disabled vets. He didn't even force a recorded vote to put the GOP on record. WTAF
True
This is not democracy. These politicians don’t care about the people. They care about power.
The people made it clear we do not want Hakeem Jeffries for speaker yet here are House Democrats chanting his name.
This party will not deliver bold change for the people because it is funded by corporations, billionaires, and AIPAC.
The people are getting nothing but excuses and betrayal from Democrats for the next 2 years.
If the people want change then we’re going to have to fight for a new party and a new system!

Her social engagements on this post are backwards.
No one wants her opinion or comments because she can't be bothered to do her job.
Good riddance.

On #VeteransDay, we honor the courage and sacrifice of our heroes in uniform.
We must ensure Veterans and their families receive the support they’ve earned and deserve. Because just as we leave no soldier behind on the battlefield, we leave no Veteran behind when they come home.

You showed how much honor you had yesterday by not voting to impeach Hegbreth

Some Democrats are using the excuse that they were stuck in traffic for missing a vote.
They are paid $174,000 with incredible benefits, but haven't learned to show up early so they don't miss votes when something comes up.
Meanwhile, millions of Americans work low-paying jobs where they can be fired for showing up 15 minutes late one time.
We need to send more people to Congress who know what it is like to work for a living and get rid of those who think it is a country club.
.@RepJeffries is not fit to be #Speaker
Let me put this in the plainest language possible.
As it now stands, I don't give a flying fuck if the dems who didn't show tonight to vote on the Hegseth impeachment were part of some procedural vote strategic plan as has been suggested by a few insiders (the best case possible).
The fact is no one in the entire goddamned party was prepared to address what happened! Jeffries himself seemed confused, and the whole thing came off as one giant clusterfuck!
APPEARANCES matter. STRATEGY matters. COMMUNICATION MATTERS! Congressional dems have not been given a free gift by the voters! It's a goddamned LOAN! We put you there, and the stakes are too high for a fuck up on DAY ONE!
Get your shit together!

.@hakeemjeffries is not qualified to be Speaker. At the rate he's starting out, by not getting enough votes for Hegseth's impeachment, he's already worse than .@SpeakerJohnson . At least he got his party to vote unanimously, especially when it counted. 🙄
At the EXACT TIME there's a backlash to the coronation of Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker, he FUCKS UP THE IMPEACHMENT OF HEGSETH BY NOT WHIPPING VOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Instead of telling us that Jeffries is going to be speaker because “Lol, no one is going to run against him, so stop bothering us,” Dems should start explaining why no one is running against him. It took Dems less than a day to have the same old attitude.
.@RepJeffries
See? Told ya. Ineffective.
Weird how @hakeemjeffries was unable to get enough Democrats on the House Floor to a vote to ensure Pete Hegseth was impeached.
And y'all want him to be Speaker?

HOLY SHIT, SEN. BERNIE SANDERS SAID HE WILL NOT SUPPORT CHUCK SCHUMER FOR MAJORITY LEADER OF THE SENATE!
Senator Slotkin agrees, says it's time for new leadership, she's not campaigning for the job.

Netanyahu says Jews have the non-negotiable right to the lands of Israel:
"This is our homeland. It’s called Judea; that’s where Jews come from, and we’ve been attached to it for thousands of years.
The entire claim remains on a fraudulent premise that Judea is to the Jews as France is to the French or Italy is to the Italians.
That premise is false.
Categorically false.
France is the state of French citizens.
Italy is the state of Italian citizens.
Israel is the state of Israeli citizens — not of Jews worldwide.
Jews are not a nationality attached to a sovereign state. They are a group of people dispersed across many countries, holding many citizenships.
Most Jews are not Israeli. They don't vote in Israel. They do not live under Israeli law. They owe Israel no political allegiance.
Zionism survives by erasing that distinction.

Senator Chuck Schumer just voted to advance the BAAJA bill, which would eviscerate the Endangered Species Act and the Clean Water Act while harming Indigenous communities.
In case you wanted another reason why he should not be the Majority Senate Leader.

I have been a life and health insurance broker for 20+ years. I remember before ACA how good it was. Now, with the high premiums and deductibles (even employer groups) I wouldnt pay for it.
Self pay along with ancillary plans like hospital indemnity and accident policies, critical illness and cancer protection are what I suggest.
These are low-cost options that pay you directly. Those lump sum payments go to you and you choose where the money is spent.
Health insurance is broken. Finding alternative ways to protect your family is crucial.

Okay, let’s reason this out. Thinking caps 𝗢𝗡.
If Hegseth committed high crimes or misdemeanors, and if he did them at the behest of, or on behalf of, or in cahoots with, someone else, say, I don’t know … uh … let’s assume the president of the United States … that would mean .…
Gosh, I’m stumped. I know there’s a logical conclusion here that should be obvious, but it’s just escaping me.
Could it mean that someone else has committed impeachable, removable acts too??
If so, who would that be?? Just completely stumped. But I feel strongly there must be a clear answer.
Damn, this is almost as hard as the president’s cognitive tests.
Can anyone out there help? @Grok, do you know?

Hi, been there and done that!
In both parties, as an incoming freshman, you are basically told to join the team and if not, you will get crappy committees and primaried on your next election.
I was kicked off my committees by Dems and 11 Reps and was effective anyways because I stayed focused on the voters who sent me.
Your job title is Representative, NOT Team Player.
I’m not a Democrat, but that’s how you navigate the swamp.
Incoming Rep. Don Leonard says top House Democrats have threatened to “make [his] life a living hell” and cost him re-election if he continues attaching conditions to his support for Hakeem Jeffries for speaker.
His conditions: 1) a vote on an amendment to end Citizens United and 2) “end U.S. support for the war in Iran and the country, Israel, that led us into it.”
He says Jeffries is refusing to meet with him and the threats are like something “out of a movie.”
