Brendan Boyle: “I feel quite confident that unfortunately the other credit agencies will downgrade us if this debt ceiling drama plays…”

I hope that after this, the spirit of this event will live on.

I am very proud and excited this historic and special event is happening. It will be a unifying moment for the Congress and our country, at a time when we need it most.

As the nonpartisan [Congressional Budget Office] just confirmed to me, Trump's budget bill will make it harder for working Americans to make ends meet while sending thousands to the ultra-rich.

I truly fear for our health systems, particularly in rural areas as well as urban areas. They will not be able to withstand the full amount of these cuts once the bill is finally phased in.
