Today, we mark 42 years since the Beirut terror attack that killed 241 U.S. servicemembers, including 9 brave Marines from RI. We will never forget their heroic service & the eternal sacrifice of those who gave their last full measure in defense of others.

Americans will not stand by while the Trump Admin strips away their right to privacy, tramples on their civil rights, & prevents Congress from carrying out its constitutional duties.

My colleague @merkley.senate.gov has been delivering an epic marathon floor speech for over 20 hours to protest Pres Trump's growing authoritarianism. I joined him to discuss the importance of protecting your data from misuse & abuse by this Administration.

$250 million for his ballroom. $40 billion for Argentina. $172 million for Kristi Noel’s two private jets. $0 to lower your health care premiums.

JUST IN: The White House has begun DEMOLISHING portions of the East Wing of the White House to build Trump’s $250 million ballroom — despite earlier claiming it wouldn’t “interfere” with the existing White House structure. (Washington Post)

WIN FOR RI MARINE INTERESTS: After public pushback, U.S. Coast Guard abandons plan to remove navigational buoys. I will continue to monitor this situation going forward to keep the public informed & ensure public outreach as part of any future decision-making process.
Reed Lauds Coast Guard for Listening to Public & Suspending Buoy Removal Plan | U.S. Senator Jack Reed of Rhode Island
WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senator Jack Reed (D-RI), a member of the Appropriations Committee, is lauding the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) for listening to the...

Most RIers can’t pay an extra $7,800 a year for the same health coverage they have now. With costs rising across the board, people are already tightening their belts. Democrats have a plan to stop these huge health care cost hikes. Sure seems like Republicans don’t care.

From lead pipes to lead paint, raising awareness about dangers of lead poisoning helps build stronger, healthier communities. Proud to champion efforts to boost federal funds to mitigate lead hazards, strengthen clean water infrastructure, & help parents keep kids safe.

Trump is betraying American farmers & taxpayers to prop up his buddy & foreign ideological ally, Argentinian President Javier Milei. Trump’s financial quagmire has no exit strategy, no endgame, & will cost BILLIONS of your tax dollars.

Q: What do you have to say to farmers who feel that the deal is benefitting Argentina more than it is them? TRUMP: Look, Argentina is fighting for its life, young lady. You don't know anything about it. You understand what that means? They are dying

Proud to deliver federal funds for RI’s new State Health Laboratory. From helping to safeguard our drinking water to monitoring pollution to aiding public safety & criminal investigations through DNA testing, this facility will help make RI safer & healthier.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govOct 15(source)
Higher health care cost increases for next year are already arriving in mailboxes. DC Republicans sure seem to want you to pay hundreds of dollars more per month and get nothing new in return. Dems have a plan to prevent unfair price hikes.

It doesn’t matter if you’re in a blue or a red state; health care premiums are set to skyrocket. Democrats are fighting to lower those costs, no matter where you live or who you voted for. Meanwhile, Republicans seem to only care about securing tax breaks for the top 1%.
