Trump’s unwarranted, illegal firing of FTC Commissioners is an abuse of power & a blatant attempt to undermine the law & public good. Undercutting FTC’s independence could subject Americans to higher prices, more frequent scams, & breed unchecked anticompetitive consolidation.

Trump-Musk keep overstepping & trying to break U.S. gov’t. And they keep losing in U.S. court. America’s great b/c we’re all equal under justice. Time for Trump, Musk & Republicans to stop trying to dismantle gov’t & work w/ Dems to actually make it better.

NEW: United States senator Jack Reed on immigrant detentions, DOGE, Trump oversight and much more btown.buzzsprout.com/163601/episo...
Republicans are planning to slash Medicaid to pay for billionaires-first tax giveaway.
With @whitehouse.senate.gov @magaziner.house.gov @amo.house.gov to call out how GOP cuts would devastate behavioral and mental health care for many RIers.
We're fighting to protect the health of our communities.
Trump is cutting nutrition assistance that helps K-12 students, farmers, & soup kitchens. I am working to reverse these cuts & help local food banks & family farms feed the hungry.

Honored to serve alongside @whitehouse.senate.gov @magaziner.house.gov @amo.house.gov.
Beyond opposing Trump’s anti-worker agenda, we’re focused on solutions to help bring down costs, improve people’s lives, enhance public safety, expand opportunity & uphold RI's core values.
The sun is out & the Irish spirit is shining here in West Warwick for the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick of the Pawtuxet Valley’s annual St. Patricks’s Day Parade! 🇮🇪
Irish eyes are smiling here at Newport’s legendary St. Patrick’s Day parade! ☘️
I opposed the lopsided Republican appropriations bill. Their bill cuts domestic funding and hands President Trump vast discretion on federal spending. The Constitution explicitly gives Congress the “power of the purse” but President Trump wants to seize that power for himself.
Trump and Musk are decimating basic government services while driving up costs for everyday Americans.
Trump wants to keep flouting the Constitution.
I’m a hard no on cloture and strongly oppose the GOP’s partisan, cynical shutdown ploy.
Armand LaMontagne is an RI art legend whose portraits & sculptures brought so many iconic Americans to life for displays across RI & the nation. Saddened to hear of his passing & keeping the LaMontagne family in my thoughts. www.providencejournal.com/obituaries/p...
I welcome the White House decision to restore aid & intelligence to Ukraine. I urge the Administration to do so immediately before another Ukrainian life is lost & to explain the conditions of the ceasefire, including how they intend to hold Russia to account for any violations.
President Trump’s tariff salvos, unsteady leadership, & chaotic economic approach is increasing prices, downgrading the entire U.S. economy, & costing Americans in all 50 states. He must change course.
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.
Congrats to Cumberland for raising the student achievement bar! We should be supporting students, empowering teachers and funding education, not trying to abolish the Department of Education.

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...
Even Trump’s former VA Secretary admits Trump isn’t trying to slash his way to a better VA.
The cuts to veterans health & services are to fund a bigger tax cut for billionaires.

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.
