Trump’s reckless war of choice with Iran is driving up the price of diesel. RI’s public transit now faces millions in unexpected fuel costs to keep buses running. We need to stop the price hikes of Trump’s chaos and end the war.

Trump is spending $1,800,000,000 on a ballroom and his vanity projects. Instead, that money could pay for: 🍎607,000,000 school lunches 💡12,000,000 electric bills for a month 🩺88,000 Veterans medical expenses this year 🥪429,500 Americans’ SNAP benefits for a year Priorities.

Quality, affordable child care is good for kids, families & the economy, but it’s out of reach for too many Rhode Islanders. We need to pass the Child Care for Working Families Act to expand access to early learning opportunities so parents can get to work, businesses can hire & children can thrive.

AI is advancing rapidly, and its impacts won’t stop at our borders. After President Xi’s visit, we need diplomacy, not pageantry, to set guardrails & keep people safe. Alongside 28 of my @houseforeign.bsky.social colleagues, we’re calling for real dialogue with China to address AI safety.

Grateful to the Rhode Islanders who joined this year’s Alzheimer’s Association Coffee with Congress and shared their stories. I’ll take their voices back to Washington as I fight to protect medical research, make care more affordable, and move us closer to a cure.

In the wealthiest country in the world, affordable, high-quality health care shouldn’t be so difficult to get. I stand with @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and Rhode Island health care workers, and together we’ll keep pushing to ensure all Americans have the care and support they deserve.

Trump’s illegal tariffs hurt Americans. Big corporations got refunds swiftly while small businesses still struggle to get what they’re owed. I’m supporting @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social & @bynum.house.gov’s RELIEF Act to make tariff refunds automatic for small businesses.

Trump and Republicans slashed $187 billion from food assistance to pay for billionaire tax handouts. Now, millions are struggling to afford meals. I’m supporting legislation to stop Trump’s SNAP cuts, support American farmers & ensure families across our country don’t go hungry.

American families are paying an extra $500 million a day for gas because of Trump's illegal Iran war. He chose conflict. Now you’re paying the price. End the war. Lower costs.

The House just passed another bipartisan War Powers Resolution — with 4 more Republicans joining Democrats — to stop the Iran War. Enough with Trump’s endless war costing us billions. Stop endangering our troops. Lower the cost of living and the price of gas.

Trump wanted to make voting by mail harder. SCOTUS just stopped him. Your ballot shouldn’t depend on the whims of Washington politicians. I’ll keep fighting to protect every Rhode Islander’s right to vote.

Workers are getting a lower share of the profits under Trump while his billionaire buddies get richer. So much for the so-called “Golden Age.” Let’s lower costs and make sure working people get their fair share.
