President Trump's chaotic tariff policies are hurting American families and causing our global allies to question our judgment.
We need to return to common-sense policies and build on successes like the CHIPS and Science Act to restore sanity and credibility to our economy.
I look forward to working with my colleagues to better support our teachers and ensure our students are college and career ready.

In honor of #TeacherAppreciationWeek, I’m proud to introduce this legislation to send a clear signal that America is focused on educating our future leaders.
Unfortunately, this is urgently needed as the Trump administration has made drastic cuts to critical student and teacher resources.
We cannot compete on a global scale when we gut the educational and cultural institutions that educate future generations.
Join me live on News Nation with Leland Vittert in just a few minutes!
Tonight, I'll be on @newsnation.bsky.social with Leland Vittert around 9:15pm to discuss President Trump's chaotic tariffs and their effect on working families.
Tune in!
Honored to join @nbccstopbc.bsky.social & members of our local Breast Cancer Coalition of Rochester at this morning's Rally to End Breast Cancer.
This cause is deeply personal to me and my family, and I'm grateful for the passion of these advocates as we work together towards a cancer-free future.
That's why I've authored legislation like the PREPARE Act, which would help protect our small businesses from economic hardship caused by disastrous flooding.

This #NationalSmallBusinessWeek, local businesses need our support more than ever.
While the Trump administration puts small businesses at risk with his reckless trade war, I'm fighting for policies that bring opportunities and resources to small businesses and bolster our local economy.
Kristen Welker: "Don't you need to uphold the Constitution of the United States as president?"
Donald Trump: "I don't know."
President Trump, you swore an oath of office, and it was very clear, "to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States."
It's #TeacherAppreciationWeek!
As the husband of a retired teacher, I've seen how hard our educators work to educate and prepare our children for the future.
We must invest in their work—and we cannot allow thoughtless cuts to the resources they rely on leave our students and teachers behind.
The burden of tariffs falls squarely on the shoulders of hardworking families just trying to get by.
We need to end this chaos and focus on lowering costs for our communities.
I was honored to join Rochester's Jewish community today for their annual Jewish Veterans Memorial Service.
Remembrance is an active responsibility. Today, as we honor the memory of those we've lost, we recommit ourselves to living up to the ideals they fought to defend.
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.
