Cutting the HHS budget by 1/3 and laying off 25% of staff won’t make America healthier.
It’ll harm seniors and dismantle programs like Head Start that help kids learn and grow.
Just like he did with the economy, Trump is driving our public health system into a ditch.

If Republicans succeed in slashing funding for Medicaid, Rhode Islanders will feel the impact.
Here’s how:
Medicaid isn’t just a government program — it’s a promise that health challenges won’t keep Americans from living a full life.
For today’s Day of Action, I wanted to share some stories of Rhode Islanders with disabilities who would be devastated by Republican cuts to Medicaid:
The Trump administration’s chaotic foreign aid freeze forced RI-based Edesia Nutrition to layoff staff and scale back production of lifesaving humanitarian aid.
In Congress, I’m working across party lines to end the chaos and support their mission to save children from famine and starvation.
🚨Attention #RI01 High Schoolers:
Submissions are due this Friday, April 18th for the 2025 Congressional Art Challenge.🎨
Check out my website for more information: amo.house.gov/services/art...
I call on the president to comply with the court order and deliver these Congressionally-approved investments for communities in our state and across the country.
GOOD NEWS: Today, a federal judge in RI granted a preliminary injunction against the Trump admin — directing them to release frozen funds for infrastructure & the environment.

Advocating for DOGE? 😾
Advocating for dogs (& cats, wildlife, and farmed animals)? 😻
Thank you to the Humane World Action Fund for your dedicated work in Congress to end animal cruelty and abuse.
You know what’s better than a letter?
Actually voting against the bill that opened the door to “massive cuts.”
I’m glad that raising the alarm is having an impact. But we need to keep up public pressure until harmful Republican cuts are actually off the table.

7/ In short, Social Security is the largest anti-poverty program in U.S. history.
It’s about values — seniors shouldn’t live in poverty.
Congress must protect Americans who paid into Social Security and deserve its financial security & stability.
Let’s keep making our voices heard.
6/ And finally, our office continues to assist Rhode Islanders in the First Congressional District whenever they need help dealing with Social Security Administration.
We’re here to help because no one should feel like they’re fighting for their benefits alone.

5/ In January, I convened leaders and advocates to raise awareness about senior fraud.
Far too many seniors in Rhode Island have been the victim of scams, which is why I’m working to crack down on those who seek to take advantage of them and their retirement.

4/ When the #SocialSecurityFairnessAct was stalled, I helped force a vote to repeal penalties that robbed public service employees of their benefits.
Our RI delegation pushed for this law which has benefited 7,000+ Rhode Islanders & returned $50M+ in retroactive payments.

3/ Last year, I welcomed my colleague Rep. Larson to East Providence to discuss the #SocialSecurity2100Act — a bill to increase benefits across the board for the first time in 50 years.
Proud to be fighting next to a longtime champion for dignity in retirement that seniors deserve.
2/ When Republicans put forward a proposal that would have slashed benefits for 257 million Americans, I joined my colleagues in sounding the alarm on their scheme that would force seniors to work longer for less.

On this Day of Action, as Trump and Elon work overtime to gut Social Security, we all have to stand up and protect it.
Since being sworn into Congress, I have.
For the 230,000 RIers who rely on the program, I’m fighting to expand benefits & push back on proposed cuts.
How? 🧵
There’s no other way to spin this.
The president wants to deport American citizens and lock them up in foreign prisons.
Every single Member of Congress — regardless of party — should be on record against this illegal, immoral, and unconstitutional scheme.
As Trump cuts programs that Veterans rely on, I met with the Military Officers Association of America to discuss how Congress should:
🏠 invest in better housing for servicemembers
⏰ end long wait times to access health care for Veterans
🇺🇸 and expand job opportunities for military families.
