I oppose Trump’s unjustified defense budget increase. The U.S. Department of Defense doesn’t lack funding, but it currently lacks responsible civilian leadership & management. My statement: www.reed.senate.gov/news/release...

Dems will continue pushing for commonsense reforms to rein in out-of-control ICE & Border Patrol agents. Accountability must come for unjustified violence & unconstitutional actions. GOP should stop trying to ignore Americans’ demand for needed reform & oversight.
The unanimous agreement re-passed today is virtually same deal that was proposed a month ago, but Pres. Trump delayed it while trying to leverage DHS shutdown to punish federal workers & win unrelated concessions. He failed, wasted time & money & inflicted damage on avg Americans.
Today the GOP-controlled U.S. Senate once again repassed the exact same DHS funding bill. Pres. Trump endorsed it. Now House Republicans are last remaining obstruction. They should prioritize homeland security over petty intra-party squabble & reopen DHS immediately.
Good housing news for RI!
🏡New $28M fed investments will help strengthen RI’s affordable housing safety net & upgrade public housing.
🏗️RI Federal Court ruled Trump Admin’s attempt to politicize HUD housing grants was unlawful, helping housing and service providers & removing red tape.
Proud day for the men & women of NASA as the Artemis II mission prepares for liftoff.
Kudos to the terrific RI businesses, universities, & researchers who’ve contributed to the #Artemis missions!
Chag Pesach Sameach to all gathering around the Seder table tonight! I hope the spirit of joy & renewal fills your #Passover celebration with family & friends.
150 Richmond is home to RI’s state-of-the-art new state health lab & the Ocean State's first life science incubator which is helping drive economic growth & push biomedical advancements forward.
Great things happening in RI for public health & our economy.
As Pres. Trump’s policies raise prices, weaken job market, & shrink federal food aid, it increases food insecurity. As more Americans struggle with cost of living, Congress must keep investing in effective hunger relief programs like SNAP.
Russia is actively helping Iran target U.S. forces & assets. Donald Trump’s lifting of oil sanctions on Russia & Iran has enriched both countries & enabled their malign activities.
Any time House Republicans make phony claim that Dems are uncommitted to strong homeland security, remind them: The DHS funding bill they are insulting was UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED BY REPUBLICAN-CONTROLLED SENATE. House Republicans are fooling no one but themselves.
By blocking the bipartisan DHS bill that unanimously passed U.S. Senate, the House GOP is needlessly forcing homeland security personnel to go unpaid and hindering critical work of agencies such as FEMA and CISA (which Trump previously tried to eliminate and undermine).
It's not easy to get 100 U.S. Senators in full agreement. But every Senator from every state agreed to put the safety & security of the American people first & UNANIMOUSLY passed a bipartisan DHS bill to help secure the homeland. Now, House GOP is refusing to vote.
Big turnout at #NoKings rallies was a peaceful yet forceful reminder to Pres. Trump: In our American democracy, the power of the people is stronger than the people in power. We have a system of checks & balances and the president is not above the law.
Denying promotions of individual officers based on their race or gender would betray every principle of merit-based service that military officers uphold. It would also violate federal law.
I am demanding answers from SecDef Hegseth & the Pentagon.
In addition to raising gas prices, Pres. Trump's reckless economic policies are:
Taxing Americans with blanket tariffs that increase costs
Reducing access to affordable health care
Undermining retirement security
Making it harder for people to secure a middle-class life
Polluting air & water
Reposted byU.S. Senator Jack Reed
@reed.senate.gov blasts President Trump for calling dyslexia as a “mental disability” in attempt to taunt California Governor Gavin Newsom: “Trump’s hurtful, ignorant comments were offensive and wrong. Instead of taunting people with learning differences, he should educate himself and apologize."
House Republicans want to shut down TSA & DHS rather than pass a bill supported by every Senate Republican. Make no mistake, GOP controls every branch of gov’t. They're prioritizing Trump’s chaotic, violent & over-aggressive ICE raids over reopening DHS & real homeland security.
Pres. Trump’s national security advisers warned him that attacking Iran could shut down the Strait of Hormuz. He did it anyway.
Now the White House is scrambling to reopen it while our economy takes a hit, oil prices surge, and Trump's war expands.
