Senator Murray Statement on Trump and Vought Saying They’ve Started More Mass Firings
ICYMI: WSJ – Republicans Caution White House on Inflicting Shutdown Pain ICYMI: NYT – Year Will End With 300,000 Fewer Federal Workers, Trump Official Says (August 22, 2025) Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), Vice Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, issued the following statement on White House Office of Management and Budget Director (OMB) Russ Vought
Why doesn't Donald Trump remember that he was President on January 6th, 2021?
There is no insurrection in Portland unless you consider an uptick of people wearing inflatable frog costumes an insurrection.
No one is falling for this absurd propaganda, and there is NO justification for deploying our troops against peaceful American citizens.
JD Vance is LYING. These firings have NOTHING to do with the shutdown.
Donald Trump is CHOOSING to fire these scientists to threaten Democrats.
Trump is destroying what little is left of our public health infrastructure, and we will NOT be ready for the next pandemic.
BRENNAN: CBS confirmed that the Trump administration rescinded some of the layoffs of hundreds of CDC scientists who were mistakenly laid off on Friday. Some were involved with the federal measles response or the response on Ebola. How does a mistake like this happen?
JD VANCE:…
I spoke with Susan from Idaho, whose health care premiums could go up 900% if Republicans refuse to work with us to fix this crisis.
Republicans need to come to the table to work with us to extend these tax credits and save health care for millions of Americans like Susan.
Make sure everyone knows: these mass firings are not because of the shutdown.
Trump doesn’t have to fire any of these people—he’s choosing to do it as an intimidation tactic.
Difficult to overstate how stupid and reckless this is.
More than 1,000 staff members at the CDC were laid off Friday, affecting units that respond to infectious-disease outbreaks, analyze science and health data to develop policy, and monitor the safety of employees. https://wapo.st/4mWfcM1
A lot of Republican Members of Congress are in a total bubble.
Right-wing media can paint a rosy picture of our economy, sure.
But reality is gonna come crashing down on Republicans when their constituents see their premiums more than double, or even quadruple.

Over coffee, I updated @repemilyrandall on what is happening in the Senate right now: Republican leaders STILL would rather shut down the government than even talk to Democrats about how to stop health care costs from skyrocketing for millions of Americans. While families in Washington state and across the country are panicking, GOP leaders are doing NOTHING.

Bob is a retired educator in Idaho and his wife spent decades working in health care.
If Republicans refuse to work with Democrats to protect the health care tax credits, his premiums will increase from $51 to $2,250 a MONTH.

I`m tired of hearing Republicans say they`ll deal with the health care crisis they created "later." Later is TOO LATE.
If Republicans could rush to give billionaires tax breaks this summer, we can save families from seeing their health care premiums more than double RIGHT NOW.

Republicans care about your health care? Yeah, right.
Right now, Donald Trump and Republican leaders would rather keep the government closed than figure out a solution to save your health care. Watch what they do, not what they say.

“This situation is devastating—and it’s also anti-small business.”
Rebecca and her husband are entrepreneurs in Seattle who will see their health care premiums increase at least $1,300 a month if Republicans refuse to save the health care tax credits.
