Our nation needs nearly 12 million homes to meet our housing needs—and @ushousefsc.bsky.social just took a real step toward closing that gap. Two of my bipartisan bills to cut red tape and accelerate homebuilding advanced out of committee in a landmark package. Next stop: the House Floor.

Inflation is high. Groceries cost more. Too many Americans are struggling to find work. Instead of lowering costs, Trump is raising prices w/across-the-board tariffs, bailing out #Argentina, escalating unlawful conflicts abroad—and telling families affordability is a hoax.

At today’s @ushousefsc.bsky.social hearing, I pressed #AI executives on the risk of an AI-driven market bubble, the need to prevent AI from drifting toward self-awareness, and to ensure it never displaces human intelligence or enables discrimination.

@ushousefsc.bsky.social believe in responsible #AI innovation. That means addressing bias and discrimination, putting safeguards in place against misinformation and deepfakes, and ensuring AI supports workers who are already struggling under Trump’s failed economic policies.

Trump is gutting AI safeguards to empower Big Tech billionaires. Their priority? Speed and profit. The cost? 💸 The safety and well-being of the American people. This isn't responsible innovation—it's recklessness.

Trump's AI deregulation is NOT innovation; it's a Big Tech sellout. He's rolling back essential safeguards, giving billionaire-led companies a free pass to prioritize speed and profit at the expense of safety and the American people.

Trump has gutted the very programs and departments designed to tackle the affordable housing supply crisis. If Republicans are truly serious about working to increase the housing supply, they should stop President Trump.

❌ Dismantling @hudgov.bsky.social
❌ Rolling back civil rights protections, and
❌ Unleashing ICE into American neighborhoods
