DNC Talking Points | March 2025

Sunday’s ACA Anniversary Reminds Americans of the Threat Trump Poses to Affordable Health Care Access

• The Affordable Care Act’s 15th anniversary serves as a reminder that Donald Trump promised to “terminate” the ACA on the campaign trail — and is actively working to gut health care access for 45 million people. 
• On Day One, Trump immediately got to work dismantling the ACA, signing an executive order targeting ACA protections and rescinding a Biden-Harris order to lower drug costs — jeopardizing care for Americans with preexisting conditions and threatening to skyrocket costs.
• Trump’s threats to the ACA are very real: During his first term, Trump was one vote away from repealing the ACA, and he campaigned to finish the job.

Trump and Musk Are Setting the Groundwork to Eliminate Social Security

• An unearthed plan reveals the Trump administration’s agenda to severely disrupt the Social Security Administration — taking one step closer to Elon Musk’s goal of “eliminat[ing]” hard-earned benefits that working families rely on while funding tax giveaways for the ultra-wealthy.  
• Trump’s latest attack on Social Security could lead to longer wait times and cause “significant” payment disruptions — especially in rural areas.
• And tomorrow, Trump’s pick to lead the Social Security Administration, Frank Bisignano, has his confirmation hearing — and he’ll have to answer for every single one of Donald Trump’s and Elon Musk’s attacks on Social Security.

Critical Elections in Wisconsin Are Just One Week Away

• In just one week, on April 1, Wisconsinites will get the chance to elect candidates up and down the ballot, including Judge Susan Crawford to the Wisconsin Supreme Court and Jill Underly as Superintendent of Public Instruction — two candidates who will fight for working families. 
• After wreaking havoc at the federal level, Elon Musk has his thumb on the scale — spending big on Crawford’s far-right opponent because he knows this extremist will do billionaires’ bidding no matter the costs to Wisconsin families.
• The DNC is fighting back with a significant investment to support grassroots organizing for these critical elections in Wisconsin. The DNC will host phone banks and call more than 2 million Wisconsin voters in support of candidates who will move Wisconsin forward.
• Americans don’t want Elon Musk in the White House and they don’t want him buying our elections. Wisconsinites deserve better than an election bought and paid for by an out-of-touch billionaire.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Bluesky: Elon Musk called Social Security a “Ponzi scheme,” and wants to fire thousands of workers that keep the program running.

That might be easy for a billionaire to say, but Social Security is a lifeline for millions of Americans.

We must fight to protect it.

Barack Obama on Bluesky: Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. 

With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Committee on Education and the Workforce on X: For the last 15 years, millions of Americans have gotten quality and affordable health care through the Affordable Care Act.

Today, a record 24.2 million Americans are enrolled in quality coverage through the marketplaces.

Thanks, @barackobama.

Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta on X: .@TheDemocrats aren’t just investing $$ in the Congressional special elections in Florida — we are showing up! Spent two days in FL 6 with @JoshWeilFL6, including co-headlining a jam packed town hall with @davidhogg111.

It’s time to fight back!

FactPost on X: Voter to GOP Senator Grassley: We’ve trusted you with our votes for decades. We expect you to follow through on what we Iowans want and not have a government dismantled by Trump and Elon Musk. Please stand up for what is right
