Dear Donald Trump No matter how hard you’ve tried we are still the United States of America and not Russia And the courts will thwart your attempt to act like Russia and Putin and ban the press from the White House just as you’ve been banned from adding your name to the Kennedy Center

Twenty-five years ago today, our nation changed forever. Today, we remember the thousands who perished and honor the survivors, first responders, servicemembers, and families whose lives were forever changed. We will never forget the courage and sacrifice of those who answered the call.

Memphis is a city built on community. Immigrant or not, we are all human, and we all deserve to be treated as such. ICE does not belong in our community, and its presence continues to devastate our district, which is why I’ve been urging for their immediate removal.

Gas prices have soared since the beginning of Trump’s reckless Iran War. In total, families across TN-09 have spent an additional $186 million on gas since the start of his war. That’s an average $696 more per family in our district. $696 is what “America First” is costing you at the pump.

Public court documents confirm the Trump Admin admitted, under oath, to killing thousands of good jobs, ripping away opportunities from hardworking families, & raising energy costs for entire communities so they could punish Americans for their political views. This is what corruption looks like.
