Donald Trump promised to lower costs for Americans on Day 1.
A year later, families can tell you that is just not happening.

Wealthy investors are snatching up local houses, jacking up rents & making buying a house out of reach.
So far, POTUS hasn’t lifted a finger to address it. In his speech tomorrow, he can change that & call on Congress to pass @warnock.senate.gov & my bill. www.foxnews.com/politics/tru...
Turns out, most Americans don’t support Trump taking over Greenland. Maybe it’s because this does nothing to address the issues they are facing every day.
On Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, we honor his work fighting for equality and for America to live up to its ideals of liberty and justice for all.
Today, we carry his legacy and our fight for equal rights forward.
Instead of actually taking action to lower costs, this administration’s solution is for Americans to just eat “a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, and a corn tortilla.” Give me a break.
Wisconsinites rely on USPS to vote, get their medication, pay bills, and so much more – but this misguided policy is putting that all in jeopardy. USPS needs to reverse course.
We need to stop wealthy out-of-state investors from buying up single-family homes and pricing Wisconsinites out of the chance to own a home.
I have a bill to do it.

This is exactly what I have been sounding the alarm about. Millions of families have been left with no choice but to drop health care coverage and hope that a health care disaster doesn’t happen to them.

The last thing Americans who are struggling with addiction or mental health problems needed was this chaos.
RFK, Jr. owes the American people some answers as to why he did this.
NEWS: Overnight, the Trump Administration cut off $2 billion from our fight against the fentanyl epidemic and to get people mental health care.
Americans are struggling and need help – but the Trump administration is turning their back on them. This is reckless and dangerous.
We’re days away from the final day to enroll for 2026 health care coverage on healthcare.gov, and instead of stopping Americans’ premiums from skyrocketing, my Senate Republican colleagues are choosing to jack up costs for families already struggling to get by.
Americans don’t want Canada, Venezuela, or Greenland.
They want to be able to afford groceries and have lower health care costs.
Because of Trump’s trade war, family farms across Wisconsin are struggling to stay afloat. I heard first-hand from farmers who are worried they might not recover from this.

Oil executives, not American families or American troops, but big oil executives. That is who Trump is prioritizing.

✔️ Workforce slashed
✔️ Longer wait times
✔️ Record backlogs
✔️ Delayed services to millions
The Social Security Administration is in shambles under the Trump administration, and Wisconsin families deserve so much better.
Wisconsin family farms are hurting because of Trump’s unnecessary trade war. Today, I heard from farmers in Cambridge about how they’ve been navigating these crushing tariffs and what the rise in costs means for their business. It’s not good, folks.
Last year, Trump gave $20 billion in U.S. taxpayer dollars to Argentina.
Now, he wants to pay Greenlanders tens of thousands of dollars each to take their land.
But when it comes to lowering Americans’ health care, child care, and grocery costs, there’s no money in the bank.
Wisconsin farmers wouldn’t need a bailout if Trump didn’t put their livelihoods on the line with his reckless trade war. The worst part is, his bailout is just a Band-Aid on a bullet wound for our farmers. www.jsonline.com/story/news/p...
This is a tragedy, and I’m thinking of our neighbors to the West. We need an investigation into this incident and accountability. But this we do know: Trump is sending in masked agents into our neighborhoods, is causing chaos, and is not making our communities any safer.
The American people didn’t ask for higher health care costs or to barrel into another costly war.
We’re 6 days into January, and that’s exactly what the American people are getting from Donald Trump.
