Sec. Hegseth doesn’t have the temperament or management skills to lead the Pentagon. And he’s proving that over & over.

I am a hard NO on Frank Bisignano to lead the Social Security Administration. He was handpicked by Pres. Trump to run the agency into the ground & make it harder for seniors to access the Social Security benefits they earned.
Heading to Senate floor to speak about how the chaos and dysfunction of the Trump Administration is making America less safe.
Trump just ousted his Nat'l Sec. Advisor, but Sec. Hegseth’s mismanagement and sloppiness have made DoD a mess.
Our servicemembers & the American people deserve better.
GREAT NEWS: New $18.4 billion Navy submarine contract to boost Rhode Island workforce and help safeguard the nation.
Thank you to the thousands of hardworking Rhode Islanders who contribute to building these next-gen submarines.
Trump’s anti-voter executive order and the GOP’s undemocratic SAVE Act are about making it harder for American citizens to vote.

Removing lead service lines & ensuring clean water for every RIer is a top priority.
Proud to work with @whitehouse.senate.gov to deliver federal funds to accelerate lead pipe replacement.
The Biden "Overhang”
GDP GROWTH:
End of Biden Admin: +2.4%
Under Trump: -0.3%
CONSUMER CONFIDENCE INDEX:
End of Biden Admin: 104.7
Under Trump: 86 (lowest since COVID-19 outbreak)
S&P 500:
End of Biden Admin: 5,996.66
Under Trump: 5,503.64 (down 9%)
Every American deserves healthy air & clean water. Gutting these environmental grants harms public health, increases pollution, & kills jobs.
In RI, the Trump cuts would halt $500,000 to combat childhood lead poisoning and $1 million to enhance our local waterways.
By any measure, the first 100 days of Pres. Donald Trump’s second term have been a disaster for regular Americans and our Constitution.

The Women, Peace & Security Initiative contributes to U.S. national security. WPS was authored by then- Rep. Kristi Noem & championed by then-Sen. Marco Rubio. Trump signed it into law. Mr. Hegseth should do his homework.
Trump Admin's reckless funding freeze has thrown the U.S. economy into chaos – harming small biz, farmers, & families. It's halted promising research & the ability to make polluters pay.
Trump needs to stop the funding freeze & work w/ Dems to get our economy working again.
Tremendous contributions from dozens of RI student artists this year at my annual High School Art Competition. Special thanks to these talented artists, their families and art teachers, and all who helped make this year’s competition a success. Keep up the great work!
Standing with the Armenian Martyrs’ Memorial Committee & Armenians across the nation to commemorate 110 years since the 1915 Armenian Genocide.
Providence College’s state-of-the-art Ben Mondor Center for Nursing & Health Sciences offers hands-on opportunities for students to train & prepare for careers helping keep RIers healthy & safe.
Proud to join students, faculty, & leaders to officially dedicate this new facility.
Donald Trump is a one man financial crisis. In the last 100 days, he has forced up prices & fueled economic chaos for working families & Main Street businesses. Trump must reverse course & work w/ Dems to lower prices and get our economy working again.
My thoughts are with Rhode Island’s Armenian community today as we recognize & remember the more than 1.5 million killed during the #ArmenianGenocide of 1915.
Head Start helps kids reach their full potential.
Joined parents, teachers, & Head Start leaders at CCAP in Cranston to highlight success of these programs in RI & rally against Trump Admin efforts to cut Head Start.
Supporting families & ensuring kids have the best chance to succeed strengthens our communities. Home visit programs do just that. We need to grow & protect these programs, not slash their funding. Joined families & advocates at Meeting Street to call out GOP's misguided cuts.
Proud to join Rhode Island College’s Cyber Institute to celebrate its Nat’l Security Agency designation as a Center for Academic Excellence. Grateful for dedicated students, faculty, & staff helping to create next generation of cybersecurity leaders ready to meet a rapidly evolving threat landscape.
Our firefighters deserve the best equipment available to stay safe while responding to a range of emergencies throughout our communities.
Proud to deliver $1M federal grant for Warwick Fire Department to purchase 72 state-of-the-art breathing apparatus units.
