The President promised to lower costs for hardworking Americans on day one. Instead, he’s doubling down on making life more difficult and more expensive. Making these tariffs permanent is a permanent tax on working families.

We’ve seen this story before – endless wars cost American lives, explode the deficit, and leave working families paying more while priorities at home are neglected.
Congress has a constitutional obligation to reign in President Trump’s costly and harmful war of choice.
Great meeting with Members of the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives, including Missouri’s own MFA, Inc. I always value hearing directly from those on the front lines of agriculture as we work to strengthen Missouri’s farm economy and support rural communities.
Excited to reintroduce the Transportation for Reentry Act! Reliable transportation opens the door to work, education, healthcare, and opportunity. Investing in second chances means investing in safer communities and a stronger workforce.

While I could not support final passage of the NDAA, I’m proud that my bipartisan amendment investing $5 million in alpha-gal syndrome research was included in the bill.
My full statement below:
Every day Trump’s open-ended war continues, the costs grow higher – for our servicemembers, our economy, and our standing in the world. The American people deserve foreign policy grounded in strategy, diplomacy, and constitutional accountability.
Americans don’t want higher gas prices. They also don’t want an unnecessary war that makes life harder and more expensive. It's time our policies reflect that.
You can’t wage war in the name of stopping nuclear proliferation while facilitating it elsewhere because there’s money to be made. Any nuclear cooperation agreement should include the strongest possible safeguards against weapons development, without exception.

Today, I’m proud to introduce the CHARTS Act. For too long, long-term care providers have been left behind in the transition to electronic health records. This bill helps close that gap – improving care, reducing costly errors, and putting patients first!
Republicans are keeping loopholes open that would still let them – and the President – get away with insider trading. Democrats are demanding nothing less than real accountability.
I’m voting NO.

Republicans say they want to stop Congress from trading stocks, but their bill only stops Americans from getting to the polls.

CNN: An investigation finds that Trump cuts created a "perfect storm" for a slowed response to the Cyclospora outbreak. More than half of states are reporting Cyclospora infections.
Every number on this chart is a family, a senior, or a child. In the wealthiest nation on Earth, hunger is a policy choice and Republicans made theirs when they passed a budget that slashed SNAP to finance tax breaks for the wealthy.
🚨NEW: In the 9 months after last year’s reconciliation law enacted unprecedented SNAP cuts, the number of people receiving SNAP fell by more than 4.5 million. Based on available data, we estimate that at least 1.5 million fewer kids are receiving SNAP.

Kansas City continues to lead. We’re celebrating $34 MILLION for the KC Bio Tech Hub to grow jobs, strengthen our economy, and accelerate the next generation of biotechnology and advanced manufacturing.
Another major investment in our region’s future that I was proud to support.
Republicans are choosing to spend your money on warfare instead of your health care. The $73B war chest Republicans want to give Trump and Hegseth for their botched Iran War could instead fund a 3-year extension of the ACA tax credits, lowering health care costs for more than 20 million Americans.
We were promised a manufacturing renaissance. Instead, workers got layoffs, businesses got uncertainty, and communities got left behind. Turns out “golden age” wasn’t an economic plan, it was just a campaign slogan.
