The Trump Admin’s reckless & abrupt cancelation of SAMHSA grants will have a devastating impact.

Trump Admin’s reckless rollback of clean air safeguards undermines the core mission of the EPA and is bad for your health, the economy, & our environment.

This isn’t just about Senator Kelly’s rights. It’s about your first amendment rights & the rights of all veterans.
In America, you’re allowed to disagree with the government without the government unfairly punishing you.
I hope the court moves to curb Trump Admin’s authoritarian impulses.

Once again, President Trump loses in a court of law.
His indefensible, job-killing order to needlessly halt Revolution Wind, weeks away from delivering cheaper & cleaner power to RIers, has been overturned.

Last week, 17 House Republicans finally stood up against Trump & voted to extend ACA tax credits and lower health care costs.
Now, Senate Republicans must do the same & join Dems to protect affordable health care for millions of Americans.

The Trump economy is not working for working Americans. Pres. Trump’s tariffs are driving up costs & his billionaire giveaways are hurting Main Street.
I’m fighting for lower costs & economic policies that work for everyday RIers.

Five Republicans voted against Trump as U.S. Senate voted 52-47 to advance a resolution curbing Pres. Trump’s Venezuela war powers. More work remains, but this is a step in the right direction.

In the wake of the Venezuela military raid, the Trump Admin’s threats to Greenland’s independence are appalling & counterproductive.

Trump’s attack on offshore wind is really an attack on our economy. He’s jacking up energy bills, firing thousands of union workers, & leaving our nation behind.
We need more energy in order to bring down costs. Trump is leading us in the wrong direction.

Many holiday shoppers are turning to Buy Now, Pay Later options. But buyers beware: BNPL can come with risks & strings attached.

Republicans cut $1 trillion from Medicaid & refuse to help lower costs for Americans on ACA.
This month, Trump plans to get rid of thousands of jobs for VA doctors & nurses.

Woke up with a heavy heart thinking about the Brown shooting & remembering today is the 13 year anniversary of #SandyHook. We owe it to every child & their families to keep pressing for real progress. Together, we can make a difference & help prevent future mass-shootings.

I’m hearing from RIers across our state about huge increases for their health insurance premiums.
This week, I voted to extend the ACA credits & lower health care costs.
Yet again, Republicans failed to show up for working Americans.
