Whether it is illegal tariff taxes or another regime change war in the Middle East, the president’s reckless policies are driving up prices, crushing hardworking families, and increasing the likelihood of a recession.
Americans deserve better.

I'm glad to see the administration allowing summertime sales of E15—but more is needed.
I urge Republican leaders to bring forward a proposal that will enable year-round E15, which will help to lower gas prices and support Missouri farmers.

The deployment of troops in Iran is an escalation that will guarantee months, if not years, of additional conflict—and billions more taxpayer dollars spent on another regime change war in the Middle East.
Congress cannot allow the president to unilaterally drive our nation into another quagmire.
The American people are paying the price for President Trump’s regime change war in the Middle East.
www.cnn.com/2026/03/25/e...
Democrats are fighting to ensure TSA agents, emergency responders, and our men and women in the Coast Guard receive their paychecks.
But President Trump and Republicans in Congress are blocking the funding bill that will make it possible.
It's time to put people over petty politics.
As the costs continue to skyrocket and families struggle to make ends meet, the president is more focused on spending tens of billions of dollars on another regime change war in the Middle East.
It’s no wonder the public is extremely unhappy.

“whoever purchased a large amount of stock futures and sold or shorted crude futures at that moment made a lot of money just minutes later.”
Congress must investigate these shady dealings immediately.

Happy National Ag Day!
Today and every day, we show our appreciation for the American farmers who keep food on our tables and our nation strong.
I’ll keep fighting for farmers by working to strike down costly tariffs and enact policies like year-round E-15.
As energy costs skyrocket, the administration is spending $1 billion in taxpayer funding to kill renewable energy projects that would lower utility costs for American consumers.
www.nytimes.com/2026/03/23/c...
By the end of the week, the administration will have spent more than $25 billion in their war with Iran—and they are requesting another $200 billion.
All while driving up gas and grocery costs for hardworking American families.

As gas prices skyrocket due to the president’s reckless war in the Middle East, American families are paying the bill.
Congress could fund TSA today.
But the president would rather use TSA employees and American travelers as hostages over his extreme demands to keep ICE unchecked and enact voter suppression legislation.
www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...
The president’s reckless decision to start another war in the Middle East has sent gas prices soaring, putting more strain on families that were already struggling to stay afloat.
I’ll keep fighting to end this unnecessary conflict & lower costs for Missourians.
www.kctv5.com/2026/03/22/g...
Congress is ready to make a bipartisan deal that will end the chaos at airports across the country.
But the president is personally standing in the way.
Instead, he is sending untrained ICE agents to airports nationwide.
16 years ago, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law by President Obama, giving millions of Americans quality, affordable health care.
While Republicans fight to defund health care programs, @housedemocrats.bsky.social are working the strengthen the ACA & lower costs for the people.
This week, I introduced the Fair Wages for Incarcerated Workers Act with @booker.senate.gov and @kamlager-dove.house.gov to mandate minimum wage for all incarcerated workers.
Happy to have the support of criminal justice reform advocate Kim Kardashian!

Senate Republicans have blocked funding for TSA SEVEN times.
Republicans should stop holding these federal workers hostage and pass a bipartisan funding bill while Congress continues to negotiate much needed guardrails on ICE.
TSA callout rate reaches nearly 40% at Atlanta airport as partial shutdown continues www.wrdw.com/2026/03/19/t...
FIFA has an obligation to ensure every fan has a chance to enjoy the World Cup—which is why I’ve joined @davids.house.gov and dozens of my colleagues to urge an end to their dynamic pricing model and more affordable tickets for loyal fans.
Whether it was investments in public infrastructure projects or the need to remove red tape to enable the construction of more affordable housing, it was great to sit down with the National League of Cities & local representatives this week to discuss how Congress can better serve our communities.
Eid Mubarak to all those celebrating Eid Al-Fitr in #MO05 and around the world!
Wishing you and your loved ones peace and many blessings as you celebrate the end of Ramadan.
