Daily Dems Doing the Work, Making Noise adn Fighting Back Day 183
If you think Democrats are being lazy, you might want to stick around to find out what Rep Jennifer McClellan (VA-04) and Rep Kim Schrier (WA-08) and many other others did today…
Repping the Rep: Sylvia Garcia (TX-29)
Is in Arlington, Texas today for another ridiculous Trump Texas takeover hearing, which is pretty much second verse, same as the first. My favorite quote today is “[they are] playing political games to appease the felon in the White House.” I love that she’s not afraid to call him that.
You can watch the full hearing below, which is still live as I’m typing this

Reps Kim Schrier (WA-08) and Sean Casten (IL-06)
Led 77 of their Democratic colleagues in a letter to the CEOS of the largest healthcare insurers: UnitedHealth Group, Aetna, Kaiser Permanente, Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, Elevance Health, The Cigna Group, and Health Care Services Corporation, demanding that they keep covering vaccines.
Today the
DNC ( The Blue Print )
Are continuing to focus on the TrumpTexasTakeover for the Daily Blueprint.
Hannah announced the DNC launched a Texas organizing program, which includes volunteers contacting persuadable Republicans and independents and educating them about the gerrymandering scam.

Rep Jennifer McClellan (VA-04)
Visited the Chesterfield courthouse to learn how Ice is impacting that community. She also mentioned a letter she wrote to DHS two weeks ago demanding answers about the despicable ICE conditions and to know how many US citizens have been taken.

Rep Susie Lee (NV-03)
followed up her warning about the Republican sham hearing promoting TrumpTax, with quotes from constituents who will be harmed, who definitely did not have their voices heard during said hearing.
Rep Yassamin Ansari (AZ-03)
Was denied the ability to see three of her constituents in the Eloy ICE facility who are in dire straits. And the facility had the audacity, when they were denying her flawless request, to say, Well you can’t see your constituents, but you can get another tour.

And finally….
Team Maryland
As they’re calling themselves, which includes MD Sens Angela Alsobrooks and Chris Van Hollen, and Glenn Ivey (Rep.’s Substack MD-04), Johnny Olzsewski (MD-02), Sarah Elfreth (MD-03), and Kweisi Mfume (MD-07)
Attempted to conduct an oversight visit at the Baltimore ICE facility, and of course, you know what happened next. But they did make a whole spectacle out of it.
Alsobrooks posted these photos:
Ivey posted this totally badass IG reel
And they held a press conference:
This is the kind of coverage we need for every single one of these denials.

I hope you learned about some fighters you didn’t know!
If you made it to the end of this post, comment 🍦(ice cream) because ICE makes me scream
And if you watched or read any of the stories, comment with what you learned and 👨🏻💼(a man in a suit,) cause that’s literally what comes up when you put insurance into emojis
Our voices are our superpower, but only when we use them!
