Here with @amo.house.gov & Mixed Magic Theatre in Pawtucket to celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth & the power of the arts by highlighting tremendous contributions of Black Americans to our nation and state’s culture, art, & heritage.
All night on the Senate floor: Democrats are putting up AMENDMENT AFTER AMENDMENT to fight back against the Senate Republican budget resolution Because the Republicans, Donald Trump, and Elon Musk are trying to give huge tax breaks to their billionaire buddies paid for by YOU
22 years after the Station Nightclub fire and our hearts still mourn for friends, family, and loved ones we lost. We will never forget those who perished or were injured, the brave first responders who rushed to help, and those who have made a positive difference in their honor.
Trump’s irresponsible economic policies are pushing the U.S. economy down the wrong track. Instead of helping to lower prices, he’s pushing us to stagflation. Trump's contempt for the rule of law and America’s allies only deters investment.
For 3 yrs, Ukraine has fought heroically against Vladimir Putin’s invasion. It seems Pres. Trump couldn't last three weeks. Trump appears weak right now, but it's not too late to change course, reject Putin, & show America’s strength by standing with Ukraine & NATO. www.politico.eu/article/dona...
If Trump & Musk want to fight fraud & waste, they should start with the Carried Interest loophole. For too long, Wall Street elites have taken advantage of this loophole to pay less than their fair share. Introduced a bill with @baldwin.senate.gov to say: No special tax breaks for the wealthy.
Trump's failure to erect guardrails for DOGE, Musk's total lack of accountability, and their reckless assault on constitutional order & Americans’ privacy will come back to haunt them. Unfortunately, it’s U.S. taxpayers who will be stuck paying to clean up the Trump-Musk mess.
Cutting waste is important. What Trump & Musk are doing creates more waste. Firing nuclear security agents & re-hiring them. Slashing researchers tracking bird flu. Posting misleading Social Security data to create outrage & threaten benefits. All of this hurts U.S. taxpayers.
There should be an FAA hiring push right now, not a mass-firing purge. FAA staffing shortages can be detrimental to air travel & operations. Understaffing in control towers leads to more planes on the ground & flight delays. Trump & Musk must strengthen, not weaken the FAA.
Standing w/ RI teachers, advocates, & education leaders to call out Trump’s plan to demolish the U.S. Department of Education. Declaring war on public education won’t help students succeed. Our students, teachers & schools shouldn’t have to pay for Republican tax cuts to billionaires & big business.
NIH-funded research has proven track record of fueling economic growth & discovery. Joined RI health care leaders to push back against Trump Admin’s proposed NIH cuts that would put jobs at risk, harm the economy, and needlessly delay scientific breakthroughs & new life-saving treatments.
Impressed by the tremendous teachers, staff, & kids at Tri-County CAA’s Head Start program. This critical program gives children tools they need to be healthy & successful. I’m fighting to protect funding that helps make sure teachers & families have what they need to succeed.
Trump’s tariff threats & other misguided policies are raising costs for consumers & squeezing small biz. Prices for: Flowers 🔺 Chocolate 🔺 Dinner date 🔺 Have all risen since Trump took office.
