Restricting and attacking the free press is a move straight out of the authoritarian regime playbook.
These are public services, not pawns for Trump's political agenda.

Seniors earned their Social Security benefits. They don't deserve to have their livelihoods used as political bargaining chips.
While the Trump administration plays dangerous games with the program, I support legislation like Social Security 2100 to keep benefits available for generations to come.
We will fight back—because we know investing in early education doesn't just pay off in the long run, it's just the right thing to do.
Our families deserve far better.
The Trump administration's latest budget proposal would eliminate the Head Start program, a cornerstone of early childhood development for nearly six decades.
Once again, they have shown us where their priorities lie—and it's not with working families.
The Congressional Art Competition is a yearly event.

Congratulations to this year's Congressional Art Competition Winner, "Paddling Near Home: My Rochester," by Youyou Wu, a 10th grader at Pittsford Mendon High School!
This piece will hang in the halls of the Capitol for the next year, available for visitors from around the country to see.
In May, we honor #JewishAmericanHeritageMonth by celebrating the rich history and countless contributions of Jewish Americans to our nation.
From science to the arts, activism to public service—the Jewish American community strengthens the fabric of America.
Millions of Americans rely on Medicaid—it's not a luxury, it's a necessity for our neighbors to stay healthy.
We cannot allow Republicans to follow through on these dangerous cuts.
President Trump’s reckless tariffs have alienated allies, tanked retirement accounts, and threatened our national security—leaving Americans worse off than when he took office.
Thank you to @lettercarriers.bsky.social for joining me in Washington today.
I'm proud to stand with our unions—especially on International Workers Day as we honor the strength and contributions of workers everywhere who fuel progress and shape our future.
Groceries are more expensive and retirement savings are deteriorating—all to make room for massive tax cuts for the wealthy elite.
We can not let this stand.
We're fighting back through litigation, legislation, and advocacy for the communities that are counting on us.
Deporting a child with metastatic cancer does nothing to make America safer.
I support secure borders—but the Trump administration’s haphazard, chaotic, and frankly cruel approach to deportation is un-American.
America has long prided itself as a global scientific leader.
These cuts tear away at our investment in the knowledge of tomorrow—and without that investment, we will fall behind.
I'll be live on @newsnation.bsky.social talking about Trump's first 100 days and Tom Homan's visit to Rochester in just a few minutes.
Tune in.
I proudly joined County Executive Bello to announce emergency funding that kept their doors open, and I'll keep fighting to support these critical facilities because no one facing addiction should be left alone in their darkest moments.
Earlier this month, we stood with Delphi Rise, our area's only 24-hour addiction treatment center, to speak out against thoughtless cuts by the Trump administration.
It's #FentanylAwarenessDay, but our community organizations are fighting the opioid epidemic every day.
We need to fight for the programs that prevent overdoses, deliver treatment, and offer hope—and we can't allow the Trump administration to continue gutting their funding.
In Trump's first 100 days he has wiped trillions in value from our stock market, raised costs for hardworking families, cut critical funding for community organizations, and threatened free and fair elections in America.
In short, he's broken the promises Americans elected him on.
I look forward to continuing to push for a comprehensive solution to this horrific problem, including allowing victims full access to justice in civil court, and ensuring all our nation’s laws stay up-to-date with technology.
I was proud to lead a bipartisan effort supporting similar legislation, the Preventing Deepfakes of Intimate Images Act, which would establish both criminal and civil penalties for these heinous acts.
