Today would’ve been U.S. Senator Claiborne Pell’s 107th birthday. Thinking of my predecessor, mentor, & friend and the indelible mark his legacy of service made on our state, nation, & world.
If Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and democracy are all negotiated by Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Moscow without Ukraine then that is not a ‘deal’ at all. It would make Ukraine, America, and our allies less safe.
No American should go hungry. Visited Federal Hill House Swiss Street Food Pantry to see their incredible work helping neighbors in need & to tout legislation to reverse Trump’s reckless SNAP cuts and restore nutrition assistance.
AI is a complex, powerful, evolving technology that deserves careful scrutiny & balanced oversight. There should be no deal that gives Big Tech free rein & takes away states’ rights & ability to protect their citizens.
Clinical trials not only provide answers for scientists & researchers, they provide hope for patients & families. We’ve got to reverse Trump’s troubling “take-a-sledgehammer-to-all-things health approach” and restore critical funding for research & protecting public health.
I’ve worked with SENEDIA for years to create a pipeline that prepares RIers for good-paying jobs building submarines & contributing to our nation’s defense. New $98.3M contract will build on our great progress to expand opportunity & strengthen our economy.
After unnecessary roadblocks & needless delay, Congress voted overwhelmingly to release the Epstein files. Anyone connected to Epstein’s heinous crimes must be held accountable. Americans deserve the truth & Epstein’s victims deserve justice and full disclosure.
Upgrading RIPTA’s fleet to newer, energy-efficient buses results in more reliable rides, cleaner air, & lower costs for taxpayers. Proud to help deliver another $25 million to help steer RI toward a cleaner energy future.
The Trump Administration continues its war on public education & flouting the law. From K-12 education to college affordability to research and freedom of inquiry, the Trump Admin. is undermining public schools, our students, & our economic future.
Energy costs are rising while the temperature is dropping & Trump is sitting on $4B in LIHEAP aid to help vulnerable families afford their utility bills. Led 30 bipartisan Sens. in urging Trump Admin to release LIHEAP funds now!
Pres. Trump’s reckless tariffs are brewing up economic volatility, uncertainty, and higher prices for American businesses & consumers alike. Visited PVD’s Mills Coffee to hear how they’re dealing w/ Trump’s price hikes & discuss my bipartisan bill to eliminate Trump’s coffee tax.
Trinity Rep is a cherished institution for countless RIers, visitors, & artists alike. Proud to support key upgrades to make @trinityrep.bsky.social's iconic Lederer Theater Center accessible to all & expand the space to create new opportunities for students, actors, & more.
At CCRI for my annual College Financial Aid workshop for RI students & their families. Grateful for the experts who joined us last night to help answer questions & provide helpful tips and tricks for filling out FAFSA and applying for Pell grants & student loans.
