As energy prices skyrocket due to the president’s war of choice in the Middle East, his administration is seeking to spend $1 billion in taxpayer funding to kill offshore wind farms that would help lower energy costs.
All so his Big Oil donors can gouge Americans.

The president’s reckless and regressive economic policies have delivered higher costs and fewer jobs to American families.
Congress must take action to reverse course and provide relief before more damage is done.
The American Dream is simply out of reach for far too many Americans—which is why I’m fighting to cut outdated regulations and incentivize the construction of affordable housing across the country.
Together, we’ll keep working to ensure every family has a safe and affordable place to call home.
I was honored to speak with @sen-marcmorial.bsky.social and members of the National Urban League about the Housing for the 21st Century Act and the work I’m doing to expand affordable housing and lower costs for hardworking families in communities nationwide.
Grateful for the opportunity to sit down with local leaders from Lee’s Summit to discuss the need for Congress to boost investments in public safety and critical infrastructure.
I’ll keep fighting to bring these investments back home to #MO05!
If you’re waiting in an extraordinarily long TSA line or awaiting assistance from FEMA, you can thank congressional Republicans for blocking funding for these critical agencies.
Democrats will continue working to restore funding while holding ICE accountable.
As diesel prices skyrocket, so do the goods that are shipped around the world.
American families are already struggling to keep up with rising prices—and the president’s reckless war with Iran is only exacerbating the crisis.
The Trump administration says the quiet part out loud: American consumers are the last of their concern right now.
Hardworking families deserve better.
Thankful for the opportunity to speak to local leaders from across the country this morning at the National League of Cities conference about the work I’m doing to enact comprehensive housing reforms.
Together, let us continue working to build affordable housing & lower costs for families.
Wishing everyone in #MO05 a happy St. Patrick’s Day!
As we celebrate Irish heritage and culture with family and friends, may your day be filled with joy and cheer!
The American people have a right to know—and the president has a responsibility to explain—why our men and women in uniform are being sent to participate in a war that has not been authorized by Congress.
Missouri farmers and families were already struggling due to the president’s trade wars and tariff taxes.
Now his unilateral decision to start another war in the Middle East is further driving up prices on everything from gasoline to fertilizer.
The president’s reckless war in the Middle East is driving up gas prices and hurting hardworking American families.
The president’s response?
“I don’t have any concern about it”

Check out the link below for more information about yesterday’s roundtable:

Yesterday I hosted leaders from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines for a roundtable with Kansas City housing leaders to highlight funding opportunities that can expand affordable housing and strengthen our communities.
Partnerships like these help deliver real results for #MO05 families.
We sanctioned Russian oil for a reason: to cut off funding for Putin’s aggression.
Creating carve-outs now, while claiming to stand up to global threats, undermines the very pressure our allies have worked to build.
That’s weakness, not leadership.
Devastating news. My thoughts are with the families, loved ones, and fellow service members mourning the loss of these six Americans.
Their sacrifice painfully underscores the real cost of the President’s war of choice.
All six crew members killed after Air Force refueling aircraft crashed in western Iraq, US military says https://cnn.it/4uzES6n
While American servicemembers are put in harm’s way, the Commander-in-Chief should be focused on the mission – not rubbing shoulders with billionaires at the golf course.
The superstition doesn’t scare me. GOP policies that hurt everyday Americans do.
I’ll take my chances with Friday the 13th.
$11.3 billion in six days.
Imagine what that could do for schools, housing, health care, and infrastructure here at home. Before the costs climb even higher, Congress must have a full debate about the path forward.
