Sec. Kennedy’s move to bow down to anti-vaxxers & cancel $500 million in mRNA vaccine development funding is bad for public health, bad for science, & will stop U.S. researchers from making discoveries in the fight against cancer, respiratory illnesses, & much more.

A Bipartisan Win for Consumers & Data Privacy: Congress passed my bill w/ Senator Hagerty to stop annoying spam calls for homebuyers. I urge the President to sign it into law.

The world would be a very different place if brave young sailors like John DeLeo didn’t volunteer to serve during WWII. The Providence Journal’s Jack Perry offers a fitting tribute to a hometown hero: www.providencejournal.com/story/news/g...
‘We came that close’: RI vet recalls kamikaze attack and Japan's historic surrender
Rhode Island native John DeLeo served in the U.S. Navy during World War II and is one of the last living witnesses to the Japanese surrender.

The Trump Administration is making Rx drugs more expensive for seniors on Medicare Part D. Premiums are already expected to go up because of Trump-Republicans “Big Beautiful Bill.” Now, they’re adding even more to health care costs.

The Institute for Computational & Experimental Research in Mathematics at Brown University is a proven problem-solving powerhouse. New $16.5M fed grant will renew ICERM through 2030, continue attracting top-researchers to RI, boost economic development, and bolster American competitiveness.

Trump’s petty move to shoot the messenger still doesn’t change his poor jobs record. It’s his bad policies & economic mismanagement that need modifying.

President Donald Trump on Friday fired the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner, hours after the agency reported that job growth in the U.S. had slowed to a near-halt.

America is facing a housing crisis & Trump’s policies are making it worse. To help build more homes & apartments and bring down costs, the @banking.senate.gov Committee advanced the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govJul 31(source)
Today, Senate Appropriators advanced over $4B for #LIHEAP, rebuking Trump's move to end the program. LIHEAP helps RIers lower their energy bills, beat the summer heat, & stay safe from cold in winter. I'll keep working to lower costs for working families & those in need.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govJul 30(source)
Once again, Pres. Trump & his Administration are failing to protect Americans while setting our nation back. This reckless display of climate change denial is bad for public health, the economy, & our environment.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govJul 30(source)
Trump Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent said the quiet part out loud: Trump-Republicans want to privatize Social Security, turning it from a dependable safety net to a risky profit center for moneyed special interests at the expense of everyday Americans.

For 60 years, Medicaid & Medicare have saved lives & kept the promise that in America, your access to health care isn't determined by the size of your bank account. Now, these programs are under threat & I am working to reverse Trump-GOP's devastating health care cuts.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govJul 29(source)
With food prices up & food banks seeing rising demand, we’ve got to enact bipartisan solutions. Teaming up w/ Sen. Justice to boost food security by planting seeds of economic development for local farmers & fishermen.
