Awful, awful news. This is so sad, my heart goes out to Blake Hounshell's loved ones today. A terrible reminder that so often we have no idea what others around us are going through. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

You have to squint to see it but House Republicans' "budget and spending" priorities call for holding the debt limit hostage under a threat to intentionally wreck the U.S. economy, and demanding cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Just as we warned. https://t.co/gDFyhvQiS6 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

Republicans made this their first bill, the highest priority in the new majority. They say they passed this bill to prevent a horde of armed IRS agents from kicking in your door. Here’s some expert analysis with a closer look at this claim: https://t.co/HEmRtfFiBc — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

The House just passed Republicans' bill to add $114 billion to the deficit while making Americans' tax agency less responsive to them, just to put more money in the pockets of the very rich. I voted NO; this was the final vote count. https://t.co/V0Bwc92kgZ — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

Republicans’ first priority to help ultra-rich tax evaders at the expense of their own constituents. That expense, specifically, is $114 billion, and the result will be a less effective IRS that is slower to respond to the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

I voted against the rules package. Now that it has passed, unfortunately with the support of all Republicans except Rep. Gonzales, the Holman Rule is again in force. Which means we now have to be on guard as extreme right wing Republicans try to do this: https://t.co/usMNK4L7DE — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

All but one House Republican just voted for the Republican rules package, which sets up attacks on Americans' reproductive rights, attacks on federal employees including potential defunding of law enforcement for investigating Trump, and guts the Office of Congressional Ethics. https://t.co/dYW5GYTcPx — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

We vigorously oppose these efforts to defund federal police and attack federal employees, and we urge all members of both parties who believe in the rule of law and support good governance to join us. More about the Holman Rule via @ThePlumLineGS here: https://t.co/BN4mY2o5zE — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

The Holman Rule was a top demand of the same Freedom Caucus fringe that hijacked the Speaker vote. You may be thinking, "can they do that without the Senate?" No- but they say they want to use threats of a government shutdown or catastrophic debt default to extract funding cuts. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

When House Republicans brought back the Holman Rule in 2017, a group of moderates and experienced leaders among their ranks tried to stop it. Sadly it appears that no one in today’s House Republican conference seems willing to take that stand now. https://t.co/wc8PoxeBtd — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

Let them tell it in their own words: they want to use the Holman Rule to "start defunding… the FBI, the DOJ.” Under cover of tonight's rules debate, House Republicans are giving themselves a weapon to defund federal law enforcement in must-pass bills. https://t.co/CxFTeJpvbn — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

Republican majorities have used Holman rule provisions to try to punish federal civil servants just for doing their jobs. The new MAGA majority in the House is going a step further, seeking to punish the FBI and DOJ and others investigating Trump: https://t.co/a8v167hTH0 — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

The House is debating the Republican rules package, which contains a revival of the Holman Rule. This provision allows reduction or elimination of funding to programs authorized by Congress, or of salaries of individual federal employees or offices. That's worse than it sounds- — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

Last week’s Speaker vote showed that the extreme right wing is really in charge of the new House GOP majority. Now that hard right MAGA fringe, which helped Trump try to overturn the 2020 election, hopes to extend the same chaos and nihilism to the rest of the federal government. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Don Beyer @RepDonBeyer

It's such a terrible sign for the kind of majority Republicans envision that they are starting by gutting the Office of Congressional Ethics in the rules package. As George Santos' new office neighbor, I can think of at least one very bad reason why they'd want to do this. — PolitiTweet.org
