Daily Dems Doing the Work, Making Noise and Fighting Back Day 122
I know it’s a little earlier than usual, but I am going to an event tonight so everything’s gonna be sped up a little bit.
So let’s get started!
Repping the Rep Bill Foster (IL-11)
Joined his Dem colleagues on the House Financial Services Committee, Ranking member Maxine Waters (CA-43), as well as Emanuel Cleaver (MO-5), Stephen Lynch (MA-8), Nydia Velázquez (NY-7), Brad Sherman (CA-32), Al Green (TX-9), Joyce Beatty (OH-3), Rashida Tlaib (MI-12), Sylvia Garcia (TX- 29) in introducing the Stop Trading, Retention, and Unfair Market Payoffs in Crypto Act of 2025, another very clever title, and kind of self-explanatory
Rep Kathy Castor (FL-14)
Has today’s Democratic Daily Download. And it's all about another part of the Big Bad Billionaire Bill you might not know about. Did you know it’s gonna raise your electric bill because it removes all the clean energy consumer credits? Here’s some more information.

Rep Rick Larsen (WA-02)
Attended NATOPADayton where they discussed things like fighting back against Russia and showing the importance of NATO to regular people.
In another timeline, this wouldn’t be post-worthy, but, we live in a world where our president thinks NATO is our enemy.

Rep Joe Morelle (NY-25)
Made a post, acknowledging LGBTQ+ Domestic Violence Awareness Day, which is today, and I wouldn’t have known that without this post.
He also used this as an opportunity to promote Willow Center, an organization in New York, that supports domestic violence victims with separate information specifically for the queer community.
Rep Sam Liccardo (CA-16)
Held a press conference a couple days ago on his bill to reverse DT’s cuts to FEMA’s BRIC (Building Resilient Infrastructures and Communities) program which, on the California coast, protects against coastal erosion, something the administration thinks is a waste of money.

Rep Hillary Scholten (MI-03)
Posted a great breakdown on the cuts to the VA especially the part of what DT says he’s doing versus where it’s actually gonna affect.

And finally…
Rep Chellie Pingree (ME-01)
Posted about a hospital in her district that is already closing. It’s important to remember that while this big bad billionaire bill would create new problems, it would also just exacerbate massive problems that are already there, like rural hospitals, closing, something that could’ve gotten better under Kamala, but I digress.

So those are some of today’s fighters, and I do mean some, the list of stories I found today is more like 20 and I whittled it down to these seven.
If you made it to the end of this post comment with 🔌 ( plug) letting people know that their utility bills will be going up might be a way to get some people to contact their R electeds
And if you watched or read any of the stories comment with 🏖️ (beach) cause we gotta protect our coastlines not just clean up after the fact
Our voices are our superpower, but only when we use them!
