Just weeks after Congress gave Trump more tariff power under the guise of sanctions on Russia, he reminds us of just how little he can be trusted. Instead of ending his disastrous war that has sent your costs soaring, Trump is opening the door for the U.S. to bankroll Putin's war machine.

No matter how many times Trump tries to put his thumb on the scale, Fed independence isn't up for debate. By creating this committee, he is wasting resources and time on a debunked fishing expedition that should instead be spent making your life easier.

Trump cannot simply bypass Congressionally authorized funding for lifesaving research. Democrats will keep fighting to restore it and put a stop to Trump’s public health assault.

Congress’ Watchdog Finds Trump Illegally Withheld More Than $1 Billion in Federal Funds

The White House impounded funds from the EPA and HHS last year, the Government Accountability Office reports.

The Trump Administration’s attacks on health research are an affront to public health & are blatantly unlawful. Of the 150+ grants they illegally withheld, 16 were headed to Massachusetts. That was funding for expecting & new mothers, patients with chronic illnesses, & future medical researchers.

.@newyorkfed.org stated it plainly: “Every percentage point increase in average tariffs, consumer goods prices increase by about a quarter of a percent after one year.” The result of Trump’s policies are crystal clear: higher prices for workers and families across the board.

It’s staggering how rampant this level of corruption and pay-to-play scheming has become in the Trump administration. It comes from the top: Trump bends the rules for his taxes and now, for the right price, his wealthy donors get special treatment when it comes to theirs?

Today’s jobs report shows why nearly three-quarters of Americans reject Trump’s economy: 🔴 Fewer opportunities 🔴 Higher prices 🔴 Paychecks that can’t keep up It's clear Republicans have no intention of stopping Trump & his friends from enriching themselves at your expense for as long as they can.

The contrast couldn’t be clearer: while Trump is using tax dollars to promote himself on TV, he’s taking more resources away from communities that need them. Congress approved this funding, and denying these funds from the American people is a blatant attack on Congress’s constitutional powers.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 28/09/2026

These taxpayer-funded ads do nothing to serve you. They only serve Trump. This is yet another example of how Trump is again ripping off the American people and elevating himself all on the taxpayers’ dime.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 25/09/2026

Trump’s Administration has repeatedly failed to keep your data safe. Now, this decision lets Trump use your SSA data for something it was never meant to do: verify voter eligibility. Your data should be protected, not misused as a tool in Trump’s voter suppression agenda.

053

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 24/09/2026

The American people have a right to know the truth about their government and members of the press have a right to report it. Trump just showed us the extreme lengths he will go to thwart that. That isn’t the hallmark of a courageous leader, it’s cowardice and un-American.

041

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 22/09/2026

As if making coverage harder to access through skyrocketing premiums and more red tape wasn’t painful enough, Republicans are doubling down to take it away entirely. It’s clear that Trump is perfectly okay with that, as long as those at the top can keep cashing in.

Social Security Commissioner Bisignano told Congress he has “the right amount of staff.” Meanwhile, field offices are described as “ghost offices” & record-low morale has created the worst staffing crisis in SSA’s history. His failure to respond after 3 months leaves serious questions unanswered.

The Kennedy Center is a beacon of performing arts & a memorial to one of our greatest presidents. Demolishing it would be illegal & un-American. Imagine a president adding their name to the Washington Monument or Lincoln Memorial. Only weak leaders grift their names onto the legacies of great ones.

040

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 16/09/2026

Trump's track record speaks for itself. The American people can't afford for Congress to hand more price-hiking tariff power to the most corrupt president in history.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 15/09/2026

If this sanctions bill passes, $6.2B worth of imports into Massachusetts could face tariffs as high as 100%. That means higher costs at the grocery store, gas station, & everywhere in between. Massachusetts already faced an estimated $3.7B tariff tab. This is the last thing families need.

Where Trump's tariffs hit Massachusetts the hardest

States bear wildly different burdens from President Trump's $342 billion in tariffs.

House Democrats stand with Ukraine. But giving Trump even more tariff power while people are struggling to get by isn’t the answer. We need a bipartisan bill that holds Russia accountable without risking higher costs for the American people.

It was also a reminder of how close they hold these individuals to their hearts, and how deeply the memory of their loved ones endures. We will never forget.

This morning, I joined the Westfield community and the families of four Westfield residents who were taken from us 25 years ago. Hearing their stories was a poignant reminder of how much time has passed and the many milestones their loved ones should have had the chance to witness.

Today, as we commemorate the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, we remember the nearly 3,000 lives that were lost, and honor the brave men and women who answered the call not just that day, but in the days, months, and years that followed.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 09/09/2026

Trump promised you he’d cut costs on day 1. Nearly 600 days later, and you’re footing the bill for his costly war, thoughtless tariffs, and grandiose vanity projects. Workers and families in Massachusetts deserve better.

Trump is taking his war on child care one step further, making it even harder for parents to find child care while keeping their jobs. His latest move will strain resources, limit access to benefits for workers, and threaten the funding that providers rely on to keep their doors open.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 04/09/2026

Republicans decided to give up and go home after handing you the most expensive August at the gas pump and for diesel on record. The Trump Administration's message? Be grateful it isn’t worse. Republicans made this economy too difficult to get by in, never mind get ahead.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 03/09/2026

For Republicans, there’s never a problem giving those at the top every advantage money can buy. But when it comes to everyone else, they’ll go out of their way to kick the ladder out. Democrats won't stop fighting until these racist attacks are put to a stop once and for all.

John F. Kennedy was a son of Massachusetts who dedicated his life to serving our nation. The Kennedy Center has carried on his legacy and continues to serve as a beacon for performing arts around the world. That legacy cannot be demolished to satisfy Trump’s vanity.

Trump has once again blown a trade negotiation in the eleventh hour. Picking fights with our closest allies doesn’t project strength – it just shows the world the American president doesn’t give a damn about his people and the prices they’re forced to pay.

Every day the Trump Administration launches attack after attack on hard-working people. In this case, the IRS and CEO Bisignano are trying to trample on the rights of IRS unionized employees. I’m demanding answers and accountability.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 20/08/2026

Trump promised to cut the national debt. Instead, he is adding a trillion to the debt every 150 days. Republicans claim to be "fiscally responsible," but the reality is they would cut taxes for billionaires & stick future generations with the bill all for the sake of Trump and his buddies.

U.S. Debt Hits $40 Trillion as America’s Borrowing Binge Continues

President Trump’s promises to restore fiscal order and reduce the amount of America’s debt burden have been undercut by spending on the Iran war, tax cuts and tariff refunds.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 18/08/2026

The same people who promised you trillions of dollars in savings are now responsible for ballooning the debt to $40 trillion. More broken promises from a president only focused on enriching himself.

Rep. Richard Neal @neal.house.gov · 16/08/2026

Republicans are forcing families to make harder choices just to get by. Their paychecks aren’t keeping up. Their savings are disappearing. And the cost of everyday essentials keeps climbing.

Trump’s sham lawsuit against the IRS was so corrupt that a federal judge ordered him to pay his opponents’ legal fees & referred his attorneys for potential discipline. Now, he’s doing everything he can to protect himself from the consequences of trying to pickpocket taxpayers to the tune of $10B.

The same President who says there's no money for day care or health care wants to hand you a nearly $1 billion tab for his personal playground. There's a golden age happening alright, but only for residents at the White House.

I’ll say it plainly: Americans are seeing prices soar and jobs vanish because of Trump’s tariffs. How can you look at this reality and decide now is the time to give this lawless president more tariff authority?
