Today, seeing visitors and Kansas Citians connected from the Plaza to the river reminds us what’s possible when we invest in people and in our city’s future.
Proud to celebrate this moment for Kansas City.

Today’s @kcstreetcar.org Riverfront extension grand opening is more than a transit milestone, it’s the realization of a vision for a more connected, accessible, and vibrant KC.
I have always believed our riverfront could become a place where community, opportunity, and culture come together.
American consumers and small businesses are being crushed by skyrocketing costs driven by the president’s disastrous war in the Middle East.
I will continue pushing to end this reckless conflict before more damage is done to local businesses and hardworking families.
#HappyBDayHeadStart!
Today, we celebrate 61 years of Head Start and the more than 40 million children and families it has served.
Head Start represents the best of America, providing opportunity and support for the next generation of Americans.
I’ll always support this essential program.
The president promised he would drain the swamp.
Instead, he is personally enriching himself more than any president in U.S. history.
It is way past time that Congress banned lawmakers and administration officials from trading stocks.
While gas and grocery prices are skyrocketing due to the president’s disastrous war in the Middle East, congressional Republicans refuse to put the best interests of their constituents above their loyalty to the president.

As Americans are struggling to keep up with the Republican cost-of-living crisis, the president is stealing $1.7 BILLION in taxpayer funding to start a slush fund benefitting himself and his personal allies.
Congress must push back on this brazen corruption.

After hundreds of Democratic lawmakers called on SCOTUS to uphold access to mifepristone, I’m pleased the court made the right decision & restored access to this safe and FDA-approved medication.
But this fight isn’t over.
We must continue to defend reproductive freedom for every woman nationwide.
This bipartisan agreement improves the legislation crafted by Chairman Hill, Ranking Member Waters, Chairman Flood, and myself to cut through red tape, expand the development of affordable housing, and lower costs for families.
Let’s deliver for the American people.

$13 million for the president’s vanity project.
$1 billion for the president’s ballroom.
$29 billion on the president’s disastrous war in the Middle East.
Why is this taxpayer funding not going toward providing relief to hardworking American families?

The president’s disastrous war in the Middle East is driving up energy costs to the highest levels in years.
And American families and small businesses are paying the price.
www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
Hardworking American families are being crushed under rising costs caused by the administration’s disastrous war in the Middle East.
The president’s response?
“I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation.”

At a time when farmers and families are being crushed by higher energy prices, allowing the sale of year-round E15 will strengthen farm economies and provide relief to Americans across the country.
Proud to have supported this legislation.

If he hadn’t made it clear with his disastrous policies that are crushing American families, the president says it plainly: he “doesn’t think about Americans’ financial situation.”
“Not even a little bit.”
This money could have gone toward lowering costs for American families.
Instead, Republicans started another disastrous war in the Middle East that has taken the lives of 14 servicemembers, driven up gas and grocery prices, and cost taxpayers billions.
The president promised he would lower costs on Day One.
Instead, inflation is meaningfully higher than when he took office, as his reckless tariff taxes and disastrous war in the Middle East drive up prices on everything from gas to groceries to health care.
While Americans are struggling to stay afloat due to rising gas and grocery prices, Republicans in Congress want to spend $1 BILLION in taxpayer funding for the president’s vanity project.
Democrats won’t stand for it.
That money should go toward lowering costs for families.
Inflation is currently higher than when the president took office.
Gas prices are substantially higher than when the president took office.
Unemployment is higher than when the president took office.
The administration is completely out of touch with the struggles of working-class Americans.
“Hudson and her children have been swept up in a wave of new restrictions and bureaucratic hurdles that have begun to ripple across the country as a result of Trump’s marquee legislation”
“The law extends tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations while cutting $187 billion from [SNAP]"
Sinful.
