Townie Pride is alive & well here in East Providence as we cheered on ironworkers placing the final beam for the brand new EP Community Center! Proud to support this exciting project w/ over $10 million in federal funds to create new gathering spaces for residents.

Happy Rhode Island Independence Day! RIers have always been independent. 250 years ago today, they embraced liberty & renounced allegiance to King George III – the first North American colony to do so.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govMay 4(source)

☀️The future is bright here at Narragansett’s Maury Loontjens Memorial Library where new solar installation is saving taxpayer $$ & protecting our environment. New upgrades will offset about a quarter of the library’s energy usage & help power 2 new EV chargers.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govMay 3(source)
It’s a centennial celebration here at the beautiful William Hall Free Library on Broad Street. A lot has changed over the last 100 years, but one thing that is constant is this special library bringing people together & serving the community.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govMay 2(source)
The cost of Republican inaction in action. Frankly, it’s unacceptable. Dems voted for & continue pressing to responsibly lower health care costs & extend ACA tax credits. Republicans should listen to the American people & join us.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govMay 2(source)

Americans are paying the price of a war they never wanted and have gained nothing from. After 60 days of war, the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, gas prices are sky high, & our military has suffered significant costs. Pres. Trump owes the American people answers & a plan.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govApr 30(source)
Speaker Johnson extended the DHS shutdown for over a MONTH for no reason at all. This is the same bill the Senate passed five weeks ago.   An inexcusable failure by House Republicans. But it’s a very good thing the TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard, & more will finally be funded.
House approves bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security and end the record shutdown
The House has voted to fund much of the Department of Homeland Security and bring an end to the longest agency shutdown in history.

NEW: $11.25M grant for @quonsetri.bsky.social will enhance port infrastructure development. I’ll continue working to deliver federals investments that improve our economy & position RI for long-term, smart growth.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govApr 28(source)
Even as Trump policies worsen the economy & increase prices, tone-deaf Republicans are prioritizing Trump’s opulent ballroom over affordability. Democrats are working to lower household costs. GOP is trying to jam through Trump’s unpermitted, $400M+ vanity project.
