The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.
And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.
This is not about politics. It's about people.
Let’s break it down:
An urgent warning from the last six surgeons general about RFK Jr’s threats to America.
It’s long past time for this hack to resign.

Republicans can end their shutdown and all the pointless pain it’s causing at any point.
Instead, they’re intent on raising your health care premiums and unleashing flight delays, missed paychecks, and chaos on Americans.
Thoughts and prayers and lowered flags don’t cut it. It’s time for Congress to do more to stop senseless mass shootings.
Good to be in Bedford this morning nerding out on broadband expansion. Virginia’s leading the way towards universal coverage, and I’m going to do everything in my power to ensure we get more homes and businesses connected ASAP.
What I’m hearing in Southside Virginia about the impacts of this administration’s chaos…
Great afternoon at KC Farms talking Red Angus beef, tariffs, and dairy production…. And got some delicious Homestead Creamery ice cream too. Always glad to hear how I can better support Virginia’s incredible farmers & producers.
Senate Republicans and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Bill.
The fight isn’t over. There is still a chance to stop this legislation in the House, so keep up the pressure.
Yesterday, Senate Republicans tore health care away from 323,000 Virginians.

One man and one party are responsible for this mess. Donald Trump and the Republicans.
Wondering what’s going on with the vote-a-rama? For the last 24 hrs, I’ve been answering your questions on my Instagram stories – follow me at senatorwarner for live updates on the tax scam’s prospects, how I fuel for an all-nighter, and the real story of how Tim Kaine and I met.
7 AM update. Been fighting this terrible, cruel, bullshit bill for almost 24 hours. Egg McMuffin in hand, I’m not backing down from trying to protect millions of Americans’ health insurance.
Sick and tired of Republican Senators coming to me privately saying, “Mark, keep speaking up, you’re our conscience.”
I don’t want to be their damn conscience.
I want them to vote their conscience.
6:05 am.
Hour 21 of fighting this awful tax scam.
Been up all night, but not going to give up anytime soon.
The health care of 17 million Americans is too important not to fight for.
3 AM update: hour 18 of fighting this horrible tax scam, but hanging out with Casper in between votes — we’ll be here as long as it takes.
1 AM update: Still here, still fighting for the millions of Americans who will lose their health care as a result of this tax bill.
Unbelievable. While his party does all-night votes to rip away health insurance from millions, Trump hawks his perfume. Bet it smells like this whole bill — garbage.
ICYMI — I’m doing an “ask me anything” on my Instagram stories. Follow me at senatorwarner (and tap on my highlight AMA: tax scam) to submit questions and hear about how I’m fighting this horrible, cruel bill.
My friend Sen. Tillis is right to ask — what are Republicans going to tell the American people when they realize that Trump broke his promise and pushed them off of Medicaid?
Wow.
Under Senate Republicans’ latest scheme to gut Medicaid, more than 900,000 Virginians could lose their health insurance.
There’s still time to stop this if my Republican colleagues can find the courage to do the right thing.
I’m tired of my Republican colleagues telling me in private how they feel about this terrible bill… it’s time to vote like it.
Today’s the day. I’ll be fighting the worst, most destructive bill I’ve seen in my time in the Senate.
Medicaid is a life-changer for families like Ben’s. I will never stop standing up to protect this essential coverage.
The “Big Beautiful Bill” is a giveaway to billionaires on the backs of the working class. I will vote hell no.
