You ever meet someone who says they can help with a home project but when they come over to help they just screw everything up even more? Ladies and gentlemen, that’s President Trump.
Trump Admin chaos has engulfed the National Fire Academy which firefighters rely on to prepare for emergencies & receive advanced training that helps keep them safe. Pres. Trump is again choosing chaos over public safety by denying firefighters tools and training they need.
Cutting-edge VA research is being threatened by Trump Admin cuts, jeopardizing health of America’s veterans & holding scientific discovery back. Veterans, working families, & U.S. taxpayers are paying the price for Elon’s wasteful DOGE & pony show. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/09/u...
Getting a real person on the other end of the phone when you have questions or need help with @SocialSecurity benefits is essential. Trump & Musk disagree. Their cuts have already impacted benefits.
Trump & Elon already fired thousands of veterans working in the fed gov’t. Now, a senior White House aid says some veterans are “not fit to have a job right now’ while Musk & DOGE put the VA in their crosshairs. Trump needs to rehire veterans & drop the VA cuts.
I champion LIHEAP funding in the Senate because it is a lifeline that helps vulnerable RIers stay safe & lower their home energy costs. Grateful to the team at Westbay CAP for delivering critical LIHEAP assistance & more to those in Kent County.
“In chaotic political times, when our health and spirits feel low, a long walk may be just the restorative medicine we need.” Great piece by @carlosrmunoz.bsky.social @globeri.bsky.social celebrating RI history & retracing Henry David Thoreau’s steps through Providence.
Trump’s speech fell flat because his rhetoric didn’t meet reality. The economy is backsliding because of his chaotic mismanagement. He needs to change course, stop mass-layoffs, tariff threats & billionaire-first tax giveaways & start working to strengthen the middle-class & lower prices.
Consumers, business owners, retailers, & manufacturers are concerned about the negative impacts Trump’s reckless tariffs are having on their businesses & finances. RIers: Make your voices heard by sharing what higher tariff taxes mean to you.
Special thanks to the team from East Greenwich’s Dewetron who are working on NASA’s Artemis mission for their out-of-this-world Rhode Island flag that traveled to space aboard the Artemis I flight!
As Russia, China, North Korea, & Iran work together, Trump is isolating America in an increasingly perilous moment in history. My joint statement w/ Congressional National Security Leaders:
Social Security isn’t a ‘Ponzi scheme.’ Every American pays in and earns their benefits. The real scam is multi-billionaires trying to steal your Social Security by belittling & dismantling it. We must strengthen & protect Social Security.
Celebrating Women’s History Month w/ Women’s Fund of RI. Great discussion w/ women who are making history as RI educators & leaders improving educational opportunities for women & girls and strengthening our communities.
