Social security and Medicare

Congress SHOULD be in charge of appropriations. Do your job!

Do your job to protect us from Musk

Why is Musk talking with DOD officials about potential war plans against China? He does Tesla business with China and besides that being in conflict, he probably doesn't have properly vetted security clearance for that. Congress needs to reign in Musk and protect our privacy, bank info, and IRS data

From a constituent in Ooltewah, TN

Republican leadership has instructed party members to stop holding public events like town halls, claiming they are being disrupted by "paid protestors."
