Grocery prices are still too high, and Minnesota farmers are struggling as the bird flu devastates their flocks.   The Trump administration’s response has left too many questions unanswered. Farmers need help now and working families need to see prices come down.

Trump, Musk and Republicans are gutting the VA — firing thousands, many of them veterans — to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. Fewer doctors, longer wait times, and worse care. This is reckless and a betrayal of the veterans who served our country. They deserve better.
Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMar 17(source)
Trump lets Musk run completely unchecked through our government, firing workers managing things like housing support and veterans care just so they can give themselves and their billionaire friends big tax breaks.

Tribal sovereignty is inherent—it predates the United States and is enshrined in treaties, federal law, and the U.S. Constitution. We won't stop reminding the Trump administration of these facts.   Thank you to the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council for having me today.

Trump and Republicans set this up as an unprecedented power grab so they can slash and burn government services on their terms. I’m a firm NO — on cloture and final passage — on this ‘CR’

Millions of Americans need help finding shelter and keeping it. The Trump administration is withholding $3.5 billion in approved funding from folks who need it most. @smith.senate.gov and I are urging HUD to distribute those funds now.

Not to ruin everyone’s day, but don’t forget in the midst of this ‘CR’ chaos that they’re also trying to install a snake oil salesman (Dr. Oz) as head of Medicare and Medicaid. Finance Committee questions him today.

Project 2025 says fire federal workers, so they are. Project 2025 says abolish the Department of Education, so they are. Project 2025 says kick moms and babies off Medicaid, so they are.   Project 2025 calls for a national abortion ban using the Comstock Act… see where I’m going with this?
Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMar 12(source)
Doesn’t take a detective to uncover that Republicans are enacting Project 2025 – just last night they began dismantling the Dept. of Education. Everything points to them misusing the Comstock Act to ban abortion even in states where it’s legal. Today, I’m re-introducing a bill to stop them.
Text: This is what Heritage thinks a GOP president should do, as aid out in Project 2025: reviving the nineteenth-century Comstock Act as a federal (abortion) ban.

Don’t tell me that Trump/Musk are not trying to destroy Social Security. 30,000 people died last year while waiting to get their benefits. Under this new policy, those numbers will skyrocket. We can’t kill seniors so that billionaires get their tax breaks.

Nothing to see here this is totally normal and happens all the time and isn’t weird at all and doesn’t signal any sort of corruption

Taking health care from moms and babies just doesn’t produce quite enough money to shell out to corporations and billionaires, so he simply MUST dip his paws into grandma and grandpa’s Social Security too.   The rich can never be too rich right?

Elon Musk reiterated his intention to destroy programs like Social Security, which he has called a Ponzi scheme: "Most of the federal spending is entitlements... that’s the big one to eliminate."
