Of course they are. We knew they would– that’s why we’ve been pushing to stop the Trump administration’s haphazard and ever-changing trade wars.
They said they would lower costs on day one, but their actions tell a different story.

Local small and mid-size businesses are the beating heart of our communities.
In a moment when these businesses are facing rising costs and workforce challenges, I’m glad to see leaders at every level stepping up to help our entrepreneurs thrive.
In the wealthiest nation in the world, there's no reason Black women should face some of the worst health outcomes.
It's past time we fix this, and that's what we’re fighting to do.

Republicans made clear their top priorities were tax breaks for billionaires and kicking families off Medicaid.
I wrote a bill to make sure the typical family doesn't pay more than $15 a day for child care, while finally setting us on the path to universal pre-k.
Let Me Be Blunt: this administration is setting us up for disaster.
From Texas to Delaware, extreme weather is becoming more and more frequent, yet this administration is doing nothing to keep our communities safe.
We can’t afford leaders who don’t take disasters seriously.
The time to prevent Medicaid cuts was when you were drafting the bill.
Those cuts passed with your support.
We’ve seen what happens when you embolden anti-vaccine conspiracists: long-forgotten diseases return and people get hurt.
We need leaders who understand the importance of public health and make decisions based on science, not conspiracies.

This is unspeakably cruel, but unsurprising for this administration.
This aid could strengthen our standing abroad and help starving kids and families who desperately need it. Instead we're going to burn it in their faces.
8 out of 10 women in America will develop fibroids by age 50. No woman should have to suffer which is why we unveiled a package of bills —including mine —to tackle this issue.
Thank you to Lupita Nyongo and the advocates who joined us today, sharing stories and saving lives.
The Trump administration took more than half a million meals away from Delawareans and Republicans’ budget just threatened SNAP for thousands in need.
Because of these policies, the richest country on the planet is facing a ‘new era of hunger.’
The only way through is together.
Every woman in America should have access to abortion care, but @ppfa.org is so much more than that.
‘Defunding Planned Parenthood’ is going to close hundreds of clinics and cut millions off from cancer screenings and STI treatment.
Patients everywhere will suffer, but they don’t care.
No one in our country should be forced to go hungry, but that's what Republicans' big bad budget means for thousands of Delawareans.
In Delaware, we're a state of neighbors. This morning, we came together as a reminder that when neighbors stick together, we can get through this.
These are their priorities as millions of Americans are kicked off of their health care?
Today is Black Women's Equal Pay Day— the day when Black women working full time finally make as much as their white, male counterparts made in 2024.
In recognition of the work ahead, I wanted to share a poem I wrote dedicated to all the Black women fighting hard for equal pay.
🪙 66 cents on the dollar isn’t enough and it isn't fair.
That’s what Black women working full time, year-round are paid, on average, for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men working full time, year-round.
#BlackWomensEqualPayDay
This administration knows that elderly medicaid recipients aren't coming out of retirement to work on farms and in meat-packing facilities.
Their cruel immigration crackdown is creating a labor shortage, and it's raising everyday costs for you and your family.
Our state has the lowest mean elevation in the nation, and Delawareans are deeply concerned about rising sea levels and inland flooding.
When devastating storms are getting worse and worse, cutting funding to those who help us predict those storms and alert our communities is a costly mistake.
157 years ago, our country enshrined in the constitution three fundamental rights: birthright citizenship, due process, and equal protection under law.
No matter how hard the Trump administration tries to erode them, we'll never stop fighting to protect these fundamental rights.
Last week, I emailed Delawareans asking what they thought about the big, ugly bill Republicans just rushed through Congress.
More than 11,000 people said they strongly disapprove of it.
Numbers don't lie. Delawareans know how bad this bill is going to be.
