@reed.senate.gov blasts President Trump over indictment of former FBI director James Comey, saying, “He is seeking vengeance to settle a personal grudge. We are supposed to be a nation of laws in which criminal investigations are conducted impartially."

We’ve got to create more high-quality housing so people can afford to live in communities where they work. Presley Apartments in Warwick converted an old Sheraton Hotel property into 190 new homes for firefighters, nurses, teachers, & working RIers.

Democrats’ plan to keep the government open & working for the American people got more votes than the Republican plan. But Donald Trump still refuses to negotiate. The ball is in his court. If he doesn’t step up to lead, then Trump will own the shutdown.

Republicans just voted AGAINST a bill Democrats wrote to fund the government and also fix the GOP health care crisis. Now Republicans are LEAVING TOWN instead of working with us to lower health care costs and stop hospitals from closing. Make sure everyone knows it.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govSep 18(source)
Regular Americans are struggling to afford health care, housing, and groceries & Pres. Trump’s economy favors the ultra-wealthy. It’s way past time for billionaires to pay their fair share. Our tax system is skewed to benefit the wealthy & it must be fixed.

NSF research investments boost economic development & attract top research talent to RI. Met with PVD-based @amermathsoc.bsky.social to discuss how NSF funding, like recent $16.5M for Institute for Computational & Experimental Research in Mathematics, helps unlock discoveries & solutions.
