He shouldn't be surprised. Trump ran on a promise to lower the cost of groceries but so far he is only focused on:
➡️Raising prices with his extreme tariffs
➡️Slashing civil servant jobs
➡️Working to cut Medicaid, SNAP, Social Security
The American people do not approve.

Senator Booker — you continue to demonstrate what loving this country and loving the American people looks like.
I am proud to be your sister in service.
Happy birthday!
What a powerful moment.
I joined Leader Jeffries, Sen. Booker, Rep. Carson, and NEA President Becky Pringle on the Capitol steps in faith and fellowship.
America will know us by our love. Slashing Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for billionaires? That's not love, that's greed.
Trump needs to unfreeze Head Start funding.
And while the billionaires in Trump's orbit do not care about programs like Head Start, I do. And Americans across this country do. Every kid deserves a shot.
I was so thrilled to open my office in Bowie and celebrate with the community at the First Baptist Church of Glenarden - Ministry Center.
I’m honored to represent you in the United States Senate - and I promise I will always listen to your concerns and fight for you.
Today we marked Holocaust Remembrance Day. Not only do we remember and honor the countless innocent lives lost, but we also must recommit ourselves to the fight against antisemitism.
It was a tremendous honor to tour Walter Reed National Military Medical Center to see the outstanding, lifesaving work that our nation’s best and brightest are performing for the brave men and women, and their families, who have sacrificed everything for our nation.
The Chesapeake Bay is the heart of our state - it fuels our economy, our environment, and our recreational activities.
I was thrilled to stop by Rod ‘N’ Reel Resort to hear about how we must continue to protect our Bay to fuel tourism and job growth in the region.
This Admin continues to make clear: it's fighting for billionaires and corporations.
While middle class families suffer.
It's shameful.
I'm joining my colleagues in calling on the Admin to allow Americans to continue to use the efficient, free Direct File.
LifeStyles in La Plata provides for our homeless community.
But they've faced cuts by this Admin that has jeopardized their work. Our most vulnerable, those looking for food and shelter, are who suffer because of these cuts.
I will keep fighting to restore their resources.
Happy Earth Day!
It’s our collective responsibility to protect our earth, lower emissions, and preserve our precious Chesapeake Bay.
On the Environment and Public Works Committee, I continue to push for legislation that will help conserve our planet.
I went to Leisure World for a town hall and heard from residents about their greatest concerns: cuts to Social Security, Medicaid, and more.
I assured them that in spite of this Admin's cruelty, we are fighting back. I will always defend seniors and their hard-earned benefits.
I join the world in mourning Pope Francis, who used his voice to advance social justice and peace across the globe. He was the embodiment of, “love your neighbor as yourself” and taught mercy over judgement.
Rest in Peace.
Happy Easter Maryland!
I pray your days are filled with love, joy, and peace.
I am thinking today of Psalm 30:5: "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning."
Let that joy be with you and your families on this Easter Sunday.
A small group of rogue gun dealers supply most of the guns used in crime.
Commonsense policies have helped curb their damage, but now the Trump Admin wants to put these dealers above the law.
Trump & his friends value gun industry profits more than our lives.
Jesus’s final instruction was to love one another.
On this Good Friday and holy week, I pray that no matter our faith, we honor that lesson.
Thank you Howard County!
I joined Congresswoman Elfreth and County Executive Ball in meeting Maryland seniors at our Howard County Town Hall.
Your concerns are my concerns. I am fighting for you against this lawless and callous Administration.
This is what leadership looks like. I’m proud of my partner and our senior Senator, @vanhollen.senate.gov
We won’t stop until we bring Kilmar home.
Reposted bySenator Angela Alsobrooks
Slashing Medicaid threatens the health care of millions of Marylanders. Today, I joined @alsobrooks.senate.gov & Sandy Washington from LifeStyles of Maryland, Inc., in La Plata to highlight LifeStyles’ important work & the devastating impact of Republicans’ proposed cuts to Medicaid.
Secretary Kennedy owes Maryland answers.
I led Team Maryland in pushing Sec. Kennedy for answers on thousands of Maryland workers fired at HHS-at a time when measles is spreading, avian flu is proliferating through our livestock, and cities are reeling from fentanyl overdoses.
