First, the president destroyed important trading relationships that American farmers depend on.
Then, the president handed Argentina a $40 billion bailout and undermined farmers further.
Now, he’s working to undercut American cattleman.
How is this America First?

More information on my call to renew Head Start funding for Western Missouri here:
cleaver.house.gov/media-center...
Head Start and other programs that families depend on are not bargaining chips.
That’s why I’m in Washington pushing for a bipartisan budget bill that will reopen government and calling on the administration to renew grant funding for Head Start.

It Day 21 of the Republican shutdown.
Instead of working with Democrats to ensure American families don’t see their health care costs double or triple, Republicans are on vacation.
I’ll keep fighting to #ProtectOurCare
www.kcur.org/health/2025-...
The government has been shut down for 3 weeks—and House Republicans have been on vacation for over a month.
Now, they’ve canceled votes and extended their vacation another week.
Completely irresponsible and out of touch.
Instead of sitting down with Democrats and negotiating a bipartisan budget that prevents healthcare costs from skyrocketing, House Republicans have been on vacation for the past month.
It’s time for them to return to Washington and get back to work on behalf of American families!
There are thousands of Missouri farmers who are fighting for their livelihoods at this very moment.
Instead of providing relief to these hardworking Americans, the president handed $40 billion to bailout his failing friend in Argentina.
The wealthy get a $1 trillion tax cut.
Argentina gets a $40 billion bailout.
Trump gets a $200 million ballroom.
Kristi Noem gets $172 million in private jets.
But Republicans refuse to lower health care costs for families or provide relief to American farmers.
This weekend, millions of Americans stood together and did what Americans do best—exercise their first amendment right to protest their government.
It is extremely irresponsible that the Speaker and Republican leaders continue to smear these Americans and lie about the peaceful protests.
Wishing a very happy Diwali to all those celebrating in #MO05 and around the world!
May this Festival of Lights be filled with joy and spent with friends, family, and loved ones.
16 days ago, Republicans shut down the government rather than negotiate with Democrats to lower health care costs.
Since then, House Republicans have been enjoying a vacation as public servants work without pay.
How about you start by bringing House Republicans back to work?
The Trump administration and Republicans in Congress refuse to spend a dime helping to lower health care costs for American families—but they’re more than happy to give a $40 BILLION handout to Trump’s personal friend in Argentina.
It’s outrageous.
The president promised he would lower costs for hardworking families on Day One.
Instead, his tariff taxes immediately started driving up prices on everything from health care and housing to groceries and new cars.
The Protect Our TEETH Act would require the EPA to consult and publish a rapid response evidence review by independent and nonpartisan experts at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) when proposing new water fluoridation guidance.
cleaver.house.gov/media-center...
For 80 years, the addition of fluoride to community water supply has helped reduce tooth decay & improve dental health, especially for those who can't afford to regularly see the dentist.
My Protect Our TEETH Act would ensure any attempts to change these policies are backed by science—not politics.
When making policy decisions that impact the health and safety of American families, it’s important that Congress and the administration use science-backed data from independent experts.
That’s why I introduced the Protect Our TEETH Act.

“This is nothing but an attempt to intimidate and deny people the right to petition their government”
Republicans are terrified of voters, which is why they’re working overtime to prevent citizens from making their voices heard
But the power of the people is much stronger than the people in power
The Voting Rights Act is the bedrock of American democracy, upholding the voting rights of ALL Americans.
Today, as the Supreme Court considers a case to destroy the Voting Rights Act, I stood with Americans from across the country in defense of this landmark legislation.
“Over the 12 months ended in August, the price of coffee increased 20.9%, Labor Department data showed; ground beef was up 12.8%, and bananas rose 6.6%. Dairy, fruits and vegetables and cereals have all become pricier.”
The president’s tariff taxes are driving up prices & hurting American families.
Special Ed programs are life-changing for millions of families across the country, and the workers who make them possible deserve our respect.
It is reprehensible that they are being targeted and unnecessarily terminated by the Trump administration.
