President Trump cited outdated drug overdose data to justify tariffs against Canada, China, and Mexico. He also offered no evidence Canada is fueling the U.S. drug crisis.
Trump says new tariffs will cut U.S. drug deaths but fatal overdoses were already plummeting

I want to thank the 34,000 Vermonters who joined Sen. Welch, Rep. Balint and me in our delegation town hall by phone & online.

An extraordinary turnout for a state of 650,000 people. Needless to say, the people of VT are deeply concerned about what’s going on in DC right now.

Vermonters & Americans need lower electric bills.

I'm outraged that Trump’s EPA put an illegal hold on funding Solar for All, which could lower electric bills for working families by 80% through the installation of solar panels on rooftops. The funding freeze must be rescinded.

This morning I dragged myself out of bed at 3:00 to head to the West End Bridge in hopes of capturing the moon over PPG Place and the Christmas tree at the Point in #Pittsburgh. Luckily the clouds stayed away for long enough to allow that to happen. Made for an amazing view.
