The president stole more than $166 billion through his illegal tariff taxes, driving up prices for hardworking families and small businesses in the process.
Businesses will soon get relief—but what about the Americans who were forced to pay higher costs?

Administration officials said that Americans would only have to accept short-term pain after launching another war in the Middle East.
Now, they’re saying skyrocketing gas prices may not come down until next year.
The president said he would focus on American families and lower costs on Day One.
Instead, he launched another war in the Middle East and drove up prices on everything from gas to groceries.
It’s no wonder the vast majority of Americans disapprove of his policies.
The American people want reliable, affordable, and clean energy that will lower costs and keep our communities healthy.
Last week, I was happy to meet with @americancleanpower.bsky.social to discuss how Congress can support these important efforts.
By expanding prison libraries in correctional facilities, we can support rehabilitation efforts, reduce recidivism and create better futures for all.
That’s why I introduced legislation with @schiff.senate.gov to do just that.
Happy to have the support of the ALA.

Libraries are critical for incarcerated Americans seeking to get the education and skills they need to successfully reenter society.
I’m introducing two bills with @cleaver.house.gov to expand library resources and reduce recidivism.

With the ever-worsening climate crisis, the EPA must take direct action to mitigate the climate risks on Superfund sites across the state and country.
I joined Rep. Kamlager Dove and @cleaver.house.gov to ensure we are putting the public’s health first.
Family farmers and Ag states like Missouri are being crushed by rising fuel and fertilizer prices caused by the president’s disastrous war in the Middle East.
It’s time that Republicans stood up for these hardworking Americans by joining with Democrats to end the conflict.
Please be careful out there today, #MO05!
Be sure to stay updated with the latest weather reports and check in with your loved ones.
Stay safe!
“National Historic Landmark designation is a crucial step for Quindaro, providing the national recognition it deserves and the resources needed to become a driver of tourism and economic development”
That’s why we introduced the Quindaro National Historic Landmark Act!

Our legislation would expand library resources in correctional facilities nationwide, thereby increasing educational opportunities, reducing recidivism, and creating stronger communities for all.
Access to books offer incarcerated Americans the opportunity to learn and sharpen valuable skills that will assist in their reintegration into society.
That's why I introduced the Rehabilitation through Reading Act with @schiff.senate.gov.

The President’s budget does nothing to lower costs for hardworking American families.
Instead, he’s seeking to steal taxpayer dollars out of your pocket to make the biggest year-to-year increase in defense spending since World War II.
Grateful for the opportunity to meet with Missouri Pork Producers this week to talk about the need for a strong & bipartisan Farm Bill, the importance of trade markets for MO pork, and workforce issues facing producers across Missouri.
Thank you for taking the time to discuss these critical issues.
Corporate monopolization is terrible for consumers, allowing corporate giants to drive up prices and rip off hardworking customers.
For years, I've been fighting against Live Nation's monopoly.
Happy to see this victory for music and sports fans nationwide.
The president’s disastrous war with Iran has cost the lives of 13 servicemembers, over $40 billion in taxpayer funding, and driven gas prices up over $4 per gallon.
It’s no wonder the vast majority of Americans oppose the war.
Today, I look forward to voting on a War Powers Resolution to end it.
Thankful to the thousands of Missourians in #MO05 who participated in my Tele-Town Hall last night.
Whether it is ending the costly war in Iran or passing my bipartisan housing bill through Congress, I will continue fighting to lower costs and improve the lives of families across our district.
Missouri farmers were already struggling to stay afloat due to the president’s costly tariffs and reckless trade wars.
Now, many are straining to afford fertilizer as costs skyrocket due to the president’s war in the Middle East.
America’s farmers deserve better.
On Tax Day, we are reminded that the president’s reckless tariff taxes cost American families an average of $1,700 last year—and are expected to cost families another $2,500 this year.
It’s time that Republicans in Congress stood up for families and ended these taxes on hardworking Americans.
