President Trump and Republicans have passed legislation that has put more money in hardworking American’s pockets and made communities safer nationwide. At every turn, Extreme Liberal Democrats continue to attempt to obstruct commonsense policies in pursuit of their dangerous radical agenda— and their voting record proves it.

In fact, last night 192 Democrats voted AGAINST denouncing socialism and the Radical Democrat Socialists of America platform.

1. Democrats refuse to condemn Socialism. In November, nearly 100 House Democrats refused to condemn socialism. Last Night, Extreme Liberal Democrats doubled down on their embrace of socialism and the dangerous Democrat Socialists of America platform— with 192 House Democrats voting AGAINST denouncing socialism in all its forms. Their vote further proves what President Trump has been saying all along: the radical Left wants to open our borders, abolish police and prisons, give taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal aliens, allow illegals to vote in American elections, and push extreme pro-criminal policies.

2. Every single Democrat voted against the largest tax cut in American history. Democrats unanimously opposed and are actively trying to repeal the largest tax cuts for working families in history.

Extreme Liberal Democrats tried to block relief for American workers like No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, No Tax on Social Security, Trump investment accounts for children, and the expanded Child Care Tax Credit for 40 million families.

3. Extreme Liberal Democrats voted AGAINST holding Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism, accountable. President Trump is the first President in 47 years who has had the guts to stand up to this rogue regime that chants ‘Death to America.’ He is taking decisive action to ensure Iran can never possess a nuclear weapon. Meanwhile, 53 Democrats in Congress voted against declaring the Islamic Republic of Iran a state sponsor of terrorism.

4. Extreme Liberal Democrats voted AGAINST the Stop Insider Trading Act. Senate Democrats objected and nearly 200 House Democrats voted against the Stop Insider Trading Act. This commonsense legislation is aimed at preventing Members of Congress from personally profiting from privileged insider information.

5. Democrats voted against healthcare price transparency. Extreme Liberal Democrats voted against basic price transparency legislation that would require hospitals to prominently display pricing for healthcare services.

6. Democrats have UNANIMOUSLY blocked commonsense election integrity measures like Voter ID. President Trump and Republicans support passing the SAVE AMERICA Act, which includes commonsense election security requirements that are vastly supported by the American people, like verification of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote and presenting a photo ID to vote.

A majority of Americans support the SAVE AMERICA Act to ensure that our elections are safe and secure. However, Extreme Liberal Democrats have UNANIMOUSLY voted (repeatedly) against the SAVE AMERICA Act.

7. Democrats voted against protecting girls in women’s sports. Extreme Liberal Democrats have blocked Republican efforts to codify President Trump’s executive order protecting women and girls’ sports into law.

8. Democrats voted against protecting children from taxpayer-funded transgender treatments. Over 200 Democrats voted against legislation to prevent federal Medicaid dollars from being used for transgender treatments for minors.

9. Democrats voted against the Laken Riley Act. Nearly 200 Democrats voted against the Laken Riley Act— legislation named in honor of a Georgia nursing student who was brutally murdered by a dangerous criminal illegal alien let in by the Biden Administration. This legislation signed into law by President Trump, ensures criminal illegal aliens like Laken Riley’s murderer are arrested, detained, and deported.

Extreme Liberal Democrats opposition to this legislation proves yet again that they stand with violent illegal aliens over the safety and security of Americans. These same Democrats have also voted repeatedly against ICE and CBP funding, even going as far as to say that they will abolish ICE. Extreme Liberal Democrats want to protect illegal immigrant drug dealers, rapists, and murderers.

10. Democrats forced TWO unprecedented government shutdowns. Democrat obstruction and political games have repeatedly threatened essential government services, hurting millions of Americans as they voted DOZENS of times to keep the government shut down in their unrelenting pursuit to provide free healthcare to illegal aliens and their failed attempts to defund our Department of Homeland Security. Our economy has lost billions and billions of dollars due to Democrats’ reckless shutdown politics.

This isn’t your grandparents’ Democrat Party. The contrast couldn’t be clearer. Last night, the Extreme Liberal Democrat Party showed Americans exactly where they’re headed. President Trump and Republicans are putting America First and delivering commonsense policies to protect American families, workers, public safety, and our national security.
