“The latest reading of the Consumer Price Index recorded the first signs of what economists had predicted all along, with U.S. businesses and consumers shouldering a growing share of the burden from the taxes Mr. Trump has imposed on imports.”

The cruelty of incinerating 500 tons of food that could feed millions of children around the world is truly unconscionable.

In 2021, Democrats passed enhanced tax credits to lower healthcare costs for millions of Americans.
Republicans just got rid of those tax credits in their Big Ugly Bill—which will result in higher insurance costs on more than 22 million people.

As Republicans do the bidding of Big Oil and slash investments in clean energy projects that help lower costs, energy prices are expected to increase on hardworking families across the country—and Missouri is at the very top of the list.
We’re grateful for his courage, leadership and the example he continues to set in the community.
Join me in thanking Corporal Templeton for his remarkable service.
He was deployed to the Mediterranean, where he supported critical operations aboard the USS El Paso—including Operation Eldorado Canyon off the coast of Libya.
For his role and leadership, he earned both the Marine Corps Expeditionary Medal and the Navy Meritorious Unit Commendation.
This past week, I had the honor of recognizing Corporal Timothy Templeton, a Missouri native and a proud U.S. Marine whose service reflects deep dedication, skill, and sacrifice.
Corporal Templeton joined the Marine Corps and served as a Small Missile Systems Electronics Repair Technician.
The Trump administration's education funding freeze, including nearly $84 million across Missouri, is jeopardizing the education of students & disrupting childcare plans for families.
That's why I joined @housedemocrats.bsky.social in demanding the release of funds.

As Ranking Member @repmaxinewaters.bsky.social makes clear, the pending crypto legislation that will receive a vote in the House this week risks opening the floodgates to massive fraud and financial ruin for millions of families.

The American people deserve transparency, particularly when it comes to a case as serious and despicable as the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Why are Republicans blocking these files from being released to the public?
www.axios.com/2025/07/15/t...
The far-right Supreme Court continues to allow the Trump administration to dismantle congressionally-mandated agencies.
Make no mistake: gutting the Department of Education will hurt students, families, and public schools in every community nationwide.
A shameful decision.
President Trump promised he would lower costs for American families on “Day One”.
Instead, his tariff taxes are raising prices on consumers and small businesses alike, while alienating our trading partners and ceding power to the likes of China.
www.nytimes.com/2025/07/15/b...
“77% of respondents said their companies are considering price increases of at least 5% in the next six months.”
The presidents tariff taxes aren’t paid by foreign nations—they’re paid by American consumers and small businesses.
www.axios.com/2025/07/09/t...
Life in America is already far too expensive.
But rather than fight to lower healthcare costs for hardworking families, Republicans voted to rip healthcare away from 17 million Americans to fund more tax cuts for the wealthy.
It’s shameful.
www.npr.org/sections/sho...
President Trump said he would go after violent criminals and gang members—which we can all support.
Instead, he’s allowing masked agents to detain hardworking migrants who have been charged with no crimes and hold them in cages.
It’s un-American.

“Trade chaos is forcing America’s allies closer together, and further from the United States.”
The president’s tariff taxes & constant chaos are pushing our allies away, hindering trade that supports American workers, while raising prices for consumers.
www.nytimes.com/2025/07/13/w...
She was told, plainly and painfully, that there were none. From that point forward, she dedicated her life to proving just the opposite.
Willa’s Books & Vinyl may have started with a question and a few books, but it became a movement.
One that will continue to echo for generations.
Willa’s Books & Vinyl isn't just a bookstore – it's been a space for conversation, education, & connection.
Miss Robinson’s desire to uplift others through books was cultivated in high school when she asked her teacher where she could learn about the contributions of Black people to American life.
I had the honor of visiting Willa's Books & Vinyl to celebrate the extraordinary legacy of Miss Willa Robinson – a true cultural icon & champion for Black literature in KC.
At 84 years old, Miss Robinson is retiring, closing a chapter that has spanned 3 decades of service, scholarship, & community.
As the administration withholds nearly $84 million from Missouri schools, including $1.3 million from Lee’s Summit & nearly $5 million from Kansas City Public Schools, I joined with 150 lawmakers to urge the president to uphold these commitments made to schools & students nationwide.
