“farmers will face a mountain of supplies just as trade tensions with China dim prospects for American exports. Crop prices have been depressed as a result. Tariffs are also raising costs for key farm inputs like fertilizer, adding to the financial strain."

Republicans can “rebrand” the Big Ugly Bill all they want—but it still kicks 15 million Americans off healthcare, rips food assistance away from millions more, and adds $4 trillion to our national debt.
All while giving another massive handout to billionaires.

“US manufacturing contracted for a 6th straight month in August as factories dealt with the fallout from the Trump administration's import tariffs
"some manufacturers describing the current business environment as ‘much worse than the Great Recession.’”

As hardworking families struggle to stay afloat, the president & Republicans in Congress are making life harder for student loan borrowers.
Their Big Ugly Bill cut taxes for billionaires while gutting student debt relief for working class Missourians.

While the Trump administration tries to block the release of the Epstein Files, I signed Rep. Massie’s discharge petition to help bring transparency to the American people.
Americans deserve the truth.
While American families are struggling with the rising cost of housing, healthcare, and groceries due to the president’s tariff taxes, the Trump family is reaping billions from their corrupt crypto schemes.

Instead of working to lower housing and healthcare costs for working class families, President Trump and Republicans in Congress enacted another massive tax cut for billionaires while gutting Medicaid and Food Stamps.
No wonder families are frustrated.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans' Big Ugly Bill will ensure "overall private health insurance marketplace premiums will climb at the same time as health care tax credits fall"
And it "will disproportionately affect rural Americans."

“I’m not going to lay down, because somebody decided in Washington that they wanted to mess up our community and our state.”
I’ll keep fighting to protect the voices of #MO05

As Republicans push for another harmful government shutdown and block the release of the Epstein Files, I’m back in Washington to fight for transparency and to restore federal investments in our communities.
Let’s get to work!

As we celebrate the solidarity of American workers during #LaborDay, we are reminded that working families built this nation — and they should be the ones who decide its future.
This mid-decade power grab is an attack on our voices, our votes, and our democracy.
We won’t stand for it.
Happy Labor Day!
From securing safer working conditions to establishing the 40-hour work week, union workers have built a stronger, fairer, and more prosperous nation.
Today and every day let us honor the achievements of American workers!
The unprecedented step to redraw Missouri maps in the middle of the decade and without an updated census is not an act of democracy – it is an unconstitutional attack against it.
My full statement on the effort to gerrymander Missouri here:

Employee-owned businesses level the playing field for American workers, ensuring workers receive fair compensation for their hard work.
I was honored to meet with one of KC’s employee-owned businesses, MegaKC, to discuss these benefits and my work to expand these opportunities for more workers.
Vaccines are safe and they save lives – period.
With the support of congressional Republicans, Secretary Kennedy is purging doctors and health experts while eroding the scientific pillars of public health that keep our communities safe.

Working class families are the ones struggling to get by—but the Trump administration & congressional Republicans fought to cut taxes for their billionaire donors while ripping healthcare and food assistance away from the most vulnerable.
It’s morally reprehensible.
www.cbsnews.com/news/income-...
Secretary Kennedy is driving out qualified scientists and dedicated public health experts because of their refusal to go along with his dangerous and unfounded views on vaccines.
Congressional Republicans must work with Democrats to restore integrity at our public health institutions.
Moreover, instead of supporting short-sighted cuts to mental health programs and DOJ programs that help to reduce gun violence, as the Trump administration has done this year, Republicans in Congress should expand these programs to help save lives.
I have cosponsored legislation that would enact universal background checks, stronger red flag laws, enhanced gun storage laws, and an assault weapons ban — I call on the Speaker to give these bills a vote in the People’s House.
The time is now.
This is utterly heartbreaking.
Children in America should be free to go to school and church without having to worry about being shot in the classroom or a church pew.
There are common sense steps we can take to keep our kids safe—but we must have the courage to ACT!
