Hearing from RIers like Jeff who are facing sticker shock due to Trump’s health care increases & Republican refusal to help lower costs. Congress must work together to re-open the federal gov’t & save health care.
Open enrollment began this weekend. Pres. Trump & Republicans in Congress still refuse to help lower your health care premiums. Millions across the nation are in for serious sticker shock. Dems are fighting to lower your costs & keep Americans insured.
The President shouldn’t need a court order just to follow the law or do the right thing. Now, Trump’s half-baked approach to only provide partial SNAP funding hurts the whole country and underscores Trump’s gross mismanagement.
Proud to team up w/ @whitehouse.senate.gov to support Sojourner House’s tremendous work with a $1 million fed earmark that is connecting survivors of domestic violence and other forms of abuse to safe, healthy places to call home.
Once again, Pres. Trump has it wrong when it comes to nuclear weapons policy. The U.S. would gain very little from such testing & stands to sacrifice decades of hard-won progress in preventing nuclear proliferation. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...
Happy Halloween! Honored to meet her royal highness Princess Elsa of Arendelle at Hart Halloween. She was absolutely brrrrrilliant and assured me it won’t be too cold for trick or treaters tonight.
BIG NEWS: On a bipartisan vote of 51-47, the U.S. Senate just voted to help reduce prices for Americans and end Trump’s costly and unpopular global tariffs on more than 100 countries. Now the House must return from its 6-week hiatus, do its job and vote.
Maureen is right – if Republicans get their way, millions of Americans will lose their health insurance. RIers are seeing huge increases for next year & open enrollment starts this weekend. The time to act is now.
Pres. Trump’s politicization of the U.S. military could haunt us for generations. My Republican colleagues must do more than just recognize the problem. We must take concrete legislative action.
Leigh’s story is not unique, but her willingness to share it and advocate for others is courageous and uncommon. I will continue working to save health care for people like Leigh & all RIers who need access to affordable coverage.
Trump Admin has the funds & authority needed to extend SNAP. But it’s choosing to suspend benefits. Is it because of: A) Weakness B) POTUS left the country for a week & staff uncertainty C) Trump thinks SNAP recipients are lazy & wants to punish them ❌ All of the above
Democrats are working to responsibly resolve the shutdown and save health care. Republican House Speaker has kept the House out of session for a month. And Trump flew out of the country for a week. The GOP is purposefully keeping the federal government shut down and stopping a solution.
After years of investment, @quonsetri.bsky.social welcomed its 15,000th employee. We must continue to invest wisely to ensure this RI economic engine continues to grow & thrive.
Ambassador Bill Middendorf was a true patriot, a strong leader, & an impactful RIer. With his passing at age 101, RI & our nation have lost a faithful public servant who brought distinguished service to all he did.
Libraries are community assets that bring people together to learn new skills, find new passions, & meet new friends. I’m proud to be the leading champion of public libraries in Congress & was honored to deliver the keynote address at the New England Library Association’s annual conference.
Celebrated Diwali with friends & members of RI’s vibrant Indian community last night at the India Assoc. of RI’s annual celebration -- sharing hope, kindness, & happiness during this inspiring Festival of Lights!
Ahoy! Today we christened the U.S. Navy’s newest Virginia-class fast-attack submarine, the PCU Utah. Grateful for the talented men & women who built this sub and the courageous servicemembers who will operate this vessel around the globe.
