The president said that he would lower costs for hardworking families on “Day one."
Instead, his reckless tariff taxes are driving up the cost of everything from housing and health care to coffee and beef.
Federal workers are not a pawn in some game—they are hardworking Americans who deserve respect for their service to communities across the country.
Instead of threatening to withhold pay and mass fire these civil servants, the president should work with Congress to reopen the government.
Instead of working to lower costs and bring people together, the Trump administration and Republicans nationwide are seeking to divide communities and silence the voices of American families.
It’s shameful.

As farm bankruptcies soar due to the president’s reckless tariff taxes, the Trump administration just provided a $20 billion bailout to Argentina before providing relief to American farmers.
Americans deserve better.

If Republicans are successful in ending the Affordable Care Act enhanced premium tax credits, 46,000 Missourians in #MO05 will see their health care costs skyrocket.
That’s why I’m fighting to #ProtectOurCare, extend these tax credits, and lower health premiums for working class families.
While House Republicans continue their 4-week vacation, I’m heading back to Washington today as Democrats continue working to reopen the government and lower health care costs.
Republicans must get back to work, stop taking away Americans' health care, and negotiate a bipartisan budget bill.
Instead of working with Democrats to negotiate a bipartisan spending bill that will reopen government and lower health care costs for working class families, the president is illegally mass firing hardworking civil servants across the country.
It’s shameful.
AG Letitia James did her job in holding the president to account—which a jury of Americans supported.
Now, she’s being persecuted for it.
The president’s weaponization of the DOJ is the hallmark of authoritarianism, and we all must stand up & speak out against this perversion of the rule of law.
Breaking News: Letitia James, New York’s attorney general, is said to have been indicted after President Trump pushed the Justice Department to seek charges against her. James, who is accused of committing mortgage fraud, brought a civil case against Trump in 2022. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...
Republicans in Congress want to use American troops as political pawns in their effort to end ACA tax credits that help American families afford their health care.
Democrats are ready and waiting to pass legislation that ensures our servicemembers and their families get paid on time.
As Missouri soybean farmers are struggling to survive, the Trump administration just gave $20 billion to Argentina—one of their top competitors.
Stop bailing out foreign farmers, start providing relief to hardworking Americans, and end the tariffs!

American troops shouldn’t be punished because of Republicans’ refusal to negotiate a bipartisan budget bill.
The Speaker should bring House Republicans back from their 3-week vacation and pass legislation to ensure our troops get paid until a compromise is reached.
I call on all the parties to implement this agreement in good faith and to do the immense work to turn this bright moment into a long term resolution of the conflict.
I am relieved that Israel and Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire and that innocent hostages will return home—which is the first step toward ensuring a durable peace across the Middle East.
If Congress waits to extend ACA tax credits until Dec. 31, 1.5 million more people will be uninsured in 2026 than if they were extended at an earlier date—and millions more will see higher health care premiums.
This crisis cannot wait.
From flight delays to delayed paychecks for workers, Republicans’ refusal to negotiate a bipartisan budget that reopens government and prevents health care costs from skyrocketing is hurting Americans nationwide.
It’s time to put the American people over politics!

House Republicans being on vacation for the past 3 weeks probably isn’t helping.
Republicans must return to Washington, sit down with Democrats, and negotiate a bipartisan solution that will reopen government and prevent healthcare costs from skyrocketing on American families.
Why would the president even consider pardoning a convicted sexual predator like Ghislaine Maxwell?
Release the Epstein Files.
First, Republicans shut the government down to undermine the ACA
Now, they’re threatening to withhold the backpay that federal workers need to keep food on the table
Stop threatening your own citizens and negotiate a bipartisan spending bill that reopens the government and lowers healthcare costs!
“First Mr. Trump imposes tariffs that he says only hurt foreigners. But when that turns out not to be true, he takes political credit for payments to offset the damage as if he’s somehow protecting the American farmer.
How about not hurting them in the first place?”
