We are calling on the Trump Admin. to immediately cease this misguided mission. The migrant relocation operation at Guantanamo Bay is unsustainably expensive, operating under questionable legal authority, & harmful to our military readiness.

The cost to fly these immigrants and detain them at GTMO is in the tens of millions of dollars a month. American taxpayers are being insulted. Trump could implement his immigration policies for a fraction of the cost using existing ICE facilities in the U.S.
After touring, it’s obvious GTMO is wasteful, likely illegal, & certainly illogical location to detain immigrants. Trump’s plan doesn’t make U.S. safer. Our troops will always get the job done, but their time, skill & resources are being carelessly wasted by Trump Admin.
Fixing the immigration system won’t be cheap or easy. But the money Trump Admin is spending on their Guantanamo Bay migrant relocation operation is a colossal waste of taxpayer dollars & misuse of military resources. I traveled to GTMO to survey the operation.
I voted for billions in border security funding bc we must fix our broken immigration system. Those found guilty of violent or serious crimes are subject to deportation - that’s the law. A thread 🧵
This is a prudent step toward accountability.
Secretary Hegseth, Mike Waltz, and President Trump must answer for this disturbing, dangerous incident.
They must be truthful with the American people & not make the cover-up worse than the crime.

UNFROZEN: Millions of dollars in federal funding for the Washington Bridge.
Thanks to my seat on Senate Approps Committee & @whitehouse.senate.gov’s role as leading Dem on Senate EPW, RI delegation got this critical funding flowing to RI, but more to do.
Clearly Trump learned nothing from his botched 2020 pandemic response nor current mismanagement of measles outbreaks across U.S.
Firing 20k public health workers, cancelling $11.4 billion in public health funding, & spreading vaccine misinfo makes America sicker & more contagious.
I refuse to let the Trump Administration evade accountability on this massive national security failure.
Trump & Musk are out to get Social Security. By cutting staff, slashing services, & making SSA more inefficient, Trump is making it more difficult for you to get the benefits you earned.
Tell Donald Trump & Elon Musk: Hands Off Social Security!

Joined SASC Chairman Wicker in sending a letter to the Acting DOD Inspector General regarding reckless Signal group chat among senior Trump Admin officials.
There must be an immediate bipartisan investigation to deliver answers about this deeply concerning security breach.
Our communities need clean air & clean water to be healthy, safe, & productive.
Proud to join @whitehouse.senate.gov on the Senate floor to call out the Trump Admin’s misguided plans that would allow more pollution into our communities – hurting public health & the economy.
Libraries & Museums matter. Led bipartisan group of fellow Museum & Library Services Act co-authors calling on the Trump Admin to uphold the law & disburse approved funding for Institute of Museum & Library Services that helps libraries and museums serve the public and strengthen our communities.
GOOD NEWS: in 7-2 ruling, SCOTUS upheld federal regulations that take aim at untraceable, criminal ghost guns.
This is a big win for fighting crime and commonsense.
I’ll keep working to get ghost guns off our streets.

Using an unclassified app to text around highly sensitive, active military plans shows an absurd lack of common sense & unacceptable disregard for the safety of U.S. servicemembers. We need answers on this reckless security breach & a bipartisan investigation immediately.

Wishing RI’s Greek community a happy Greek Independence Day! 🇬🇷
Rhode Island is proud to be the home of a vibrant Greek community whose rich heritage, culture, and countless contributions have made our state and nation a stronger place.
The Trump Admin must reverse course and stop the chaos.
Whether it’s messing with Social Security or spilling national security secrets in a group chat – this isn’t what Americans want.
Time for adult supervision.

Food. Care. Connection. Meals on Wheels of Rhode Island delivers so much to so many and I am proud to support the effort.
It was great to visit with Ms. Patricia today. And thank you to our incredible #MealsOnWheelsRI family! #MoreThanAMeal
Classified war plans don’t belong in the group chat.
The carelessness of President Trump’s national security team is stunning and dangerous.
I’m seeking answers and accountability.
Our firefighters deserve the latest and greatest training, equipment, and support available to ensure they can safely and efficiently respond to a wide range of emergencies.
Pleased to help break ground on Rhode Island Fire Academy’s expansion to add more class and training space.
