Washington, D.C. – Following the House vote on the GOP-led reconciliation bill, Congressman Marc Veasey (TX-33) released the following statement:

Washington, D.C. – Today, Republicans on the House Energy and Commerce Committee shamefully voted to gut $800 billion from Medicaid—stripping health coverage from 14 million Americans. After a 27-hour markup, during which they attempted to hide from the public and silence the truth, Republicans unanimously voted to sign the death warrants of millions of children, mothers, seniors, and people with disabilities.

Washington, D.C. – Congressman Veasey released the following statement following Trump’s Presidential Address on March 4, 2025:

“The few moments of coherent speech by Trump at the Presidential Address was proof that he doesn't give a shit about you or your family” said Congressman Veasey. Don't be fooled, by the made-up numbers or the empty promises, this is an all-out attack on working Americans. It's an attack on American jobs. It's an attack on your health care. It's an attack on social security. Trump stands for Taxes, Tariffs, and Terminations."
