Trump's violent ICE and Border Patrol agents are out of control.

Strategized with a group of diverse Rhode Island faith leaders about how we can work together to protect our communities.

It's time to impeach Noem, end the violence & chaos, and keep our neighborhoods safe.

One year later, my thoughts are with Barrington’s Lane family and all who lost loved ones in the plane crash at DCA.

This accident was preventable.

That’s why I’ll keep pushing to pass the ROTOR Act, so no more families experience this kind of tragedy.

On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jews and millions of others murdered by the Nazis.

We remember their memories, mourn their loss & commit to confronting antisemitism, rejecting hatred, and building a world where every life is valued.

Just remember: Trump CUT $1 trillion from Americans' health care…

...and ADDED $75 billion to his authoritarian, masked ICE agent fund in his Big, Ugly Law.

We are demanding accountability. No more taxpayer funds for ICE to terrorize our communities.

I’m deeply saddened to learn two Bryant University students lost their lives in a car crash early this morning.

My thoughts are with their families, friends, and the entire Bryant community.

I voted against funding ICE and the Department of Homeland Security earlier this week, and I’m calling on the Senate to do the same.

Trump’s authoritarian masked men have once again shot and killed someone in broad daylight in Minnesota.

We are all witness to this brutalization: ICE is completely out of control.

Americans are less safe. ICE needs to get off all of our streets now.

Big win for public safety!

Proud to have passed $966,000 in funding to support upgraded radio equipment for the Bristol Police Department to help keep our community safe.🚔📻

I introduced the NO NATO for Purchase Act to bar your taxpayer dollars from being spent on Trump’s territorial conquest obsession.

Trump should be focused on lowering costs for Americans, not buying allies.

Under Trump and Kristi Noem, ICE is an out-of-control paramilitary force of masked men terrorizing our communities.

We shouldn’t fund the Department of Homeland Security and ICE’s unchecked power.
January 22, 2026 at 11:59 PM
Republicans are refusing to address Trump’s persistent threats to NATO and our allies.

I'm demanding action and answers — like passing my NO NATO for Purchase Act to stop Trump from even thinking about using your taxpayer dollars to buy Greenland or any other NATO ally.

Detaining a five-year-old child to use as bait to lure his family members out of hiding is sick and morally corrupt.

This is evil behavior.

ICE is out of control and should not get one more penny to support their brutal actions.

​I want students to know that Rhode Island has their back.

​We are on a long journey to healing, but know we are on it together.

Trump promised to lower costs on day one.

A year later, Rhode Island families have paid $1,814 MORE for everyday expenses because of Trump’s inflation.

Americans need relief.

How is Trump making $1.4 billion off being President making America great?

This corruption is a slap in the face to every American just trying to make ends meet, including every MAGA voter.

He’s stealing from you, making your life more expensive, and getting filthy rich. 💰💸💵
Opinion | How Trump Has Used the Presidency to Make at Least $1.4 Billion
The president took an oath to serve the American people. Instead, he’s focused his second term on enriching himself and his family.

For more than 100 years, the Newport County Chapter of the NAACP has been at the forefront of the fight to expand equality & opportunity for all Rhode Islanders.

I appreciated gathering this MLK Day & their partnership in the ongoing fight for justice.

Celebrated #MLKDayOfService with Serve RI & community volunteers at Farm Fresh RI as they prepared more than 20,000 meals for our neighbors in need – what an incredible way to honor Dr. King!

I will keep championing AmeriCorps's vital service to our RI communities in Congress.
