McGovern: "They do not listen. Speaker Johnson said yesterday that 'the voters made the wrong choice.' Are you kidding me? ... you just ain't listening."

The American People have delivered a clear verdict on this failed Republican majority.
But it’s not enough for Democrats to win power—now we need to use our power to fight for real change that people can feel in their everyday lives.
Today at 4:00pm, the committee will convene to consider H.R. 1013, the Retirement Fairness for Charities and Educational Institutions Act of 2025.

Tonight is the beginning of the end of Donald Trump’s failed presidency and the most corrupt administration in American history.
It’s a new day in America. Folks are sick of a corrupt MAGA government that puts the well-off and well-connected ahead of working people.
Now the hard work begins—turning back the tide of fascism, delivering an affordable America, and taking our country back from the corrupt crooks enriching themselves at our expense.

Never forget that House Republicans squandered their majority debating one self-congratulatory resolution after another.
A new day in America has arrived!

When the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 came before the Rules Committee, I offered Rep. Meeks’s amendment to block President Trump from waiving Russian sanctions. My Republican colleagues voted against it.
On Friday, President Trump did exactly that: issuing an EO that exempts Russia from the new sanctions passed by Congress last month, a dangerous decision that puts our allies at risk.

3 years ago today.
I’ve participated in quite a few exchanges on the Rules Committee. This remains, by far, the most baffling one.

We’ve only had 72 days in session this year.
Under Republican leadership, this is the laziest & least effective Congress in American history.
House Rules Democrats retweeted
Industry leaders are sounding the alarm on AI, begging for Congress to put safeguards on them.
The American People are struggling with an affordability crisis caused by Trump’s stupid tariffs & his reckless war of choice with Iran.
Diesel prices are at an all-time high. Gas is through the roof. We’re burning billions of dollars on a reckless war that’s claiming American lives.
And @SpeakerJohnson is sending us home. Again. Because he cares more about his members campaigning to get reelected than solving the major issues facing our country.
It’s pathetic.
House Rules Democrats retweeted
AI experts say there’s a greater than 10% chance their technology could wipe out humanity within a decade. Even a fraction of that possibility is unacceptable.
So what are Republicans doing about it? Absolutely NOTHING.
Totally unfit to lead.
House Rules Democrats retweeted
Congress should be working to put safeguards on AI & address the affordability crisis. Instead, @SpeakerJohnson is sending his conference home to campaign. It’s disgusting.
House Rules Democrats retweeted
Trump promised (and failed to deliver):
❌Lower gas prices
❌Cheaper groceries
❌$5K DOGE “dividend” checks
❌$3K tariff checks
OF COURSE no one’s getting his $5K bribe.
It’s total BS, corrupt as hell & an insult to folks who need REAL HELP to survive in his failed economy.
House Rules Democrats retweeted
Since Republicans took control of Washington, gas is up $1.21, inflation is up nearly half a percent, and the cost of diesel is at an all-time high.
Are you better off today than you were two years ago?
House Rules Democrats retweeted
With just 4 days to legislate before Speaker Johnson sends Congress home for another 7 weeks, our Republican colleagues have decided to prioritize legislation that weakens environmental protections for our kids and communities.
House Rules Democrats retweeted
House Republicans have cancelled votes for the next two months.
The next scheduled vote after this Thursday?
November 9th. Seriously.
With one week left before the House leaves another month, the GOP is focused on virtue-signaling fraud bills, resolutions to help Big Polluters, and Russia & Iran sanctions.
Nothing to lower costs or make life easier for Americans.

Folks are struggling to pay for basic necessities. But after a month-long break, @HouseGOP’s first order of business is to jam through a meaningless resolution screaming about “socialism”—which they can’t even define.
November can’t come soon enough.
