Trump’s tariffs are a painful tax eating away at Americans' hard-earned money
Americans deserve to know who's picking their pockets
My bill with Rep. Raskin will make clear that Trump's promise to lower costs on day 1 was fiction—all for a tariff policy that's sending our economy into a tailspin

Donald Trump is taxing the American people with his tariffs, and they have a right to know exactly how much.
I'm introducing legislation with @raskin.house.gov to require retailers to show consumers precisely how much the tariffs are increasing the prices of their products.
Donald Trump’s trade war is the biggest tax hike on American families in half a century.
It is a gut punch to American families.
This report makes clear the disturbing trend I have been warning about—the rise of antisemitism in America.
Social media has become a breeding ground for antisemitism.
We must not allow this to grow unabated. It’s everyone’s responsibility to fight back against antisemitism.
The Knicks wiping out 20-point deficits twice and Bridges with second monster defensive play on the last shot!

Good. The Trump chaos caused all kinds of problems with the FAA and at Newark Airport that increased delays and safety issues. That should never have been allowed to happen. I’ve been fighting for this—it is time for them to clean up this mess.
The flash firings and chaos at the 9/11 World Trade Center Health Program should have never happened.
Trump and RFK Jr. put key staff and sick 9/11 first responders through a lot of pain with these gratuitous firings.
Once we raised hell, they had no choice but to start fixing this mess.
There is no end to the cruelty of the Republican plan.
They want to rip away healthcare from millions of Americans—millions—to pay for their billionaire tax cut.
Democrats will fight tooth and nail to expose this devastating plan and protect Medicaid.
The Senate Republicans just forced through Frank Bisignano, Mr. Slash-and-Burn himself, as the head of Trump’s Social Security Administration.
They own the dismantling of Social Security.
They are Trump’s enablers, his collaborators, his co-conspirators.
The closer you look at the problems the Trump chaos has caused with the FAA and at Newark Airport, the more alarming the story gets.
The Trump administration is putting air travelers’ safety at risk.
It’s unacceptable.

Small business owners like them are facing the wreckage of Trump’s tariff tax and his reckless economic agenda.
Hear what they have to say:
Senate Republicans just pushed through Mr. Slash-and-Burn Frank Bisignano to be Trump’s head of Social Security.
Every single Senate Democrat voted no.
Make no mistake:
Senate Republicans own the cuts and chaos at Social Security.
Trump’s budget shows how much he’s a conman who does not care about the struggles of everyday Americans.
He'd rather listen to his billionaire buddies than to the American people in terms of what the country needs.
Trump’s FAA has failed to show they’re up to the task of keeping people safe.
On April 28, air traffic controllers overseeing Newark lost all communications with planes in the air for up to 90 seconds risking lives.
We need the Inspector General at the FAA to conduct a full investigation.
Today, Senate Republicans are threatening Social Security by voting for Frank Bisignano.
The last person we need overseeing seniors’ benefits is a DOGE fanatic who will accelerate office closures, rollbacks, and risky practices that DOGE set in motion.
I joined Sen. Markey to introduce the Small Business Liberation Act that would exempt small businesses from the chaos & uncertainty of Trump’s tariff tax hike
Small businesses are the backbone of America
It's time for the Senate GOP to grow a backbone and save small businesses

NEWS:
As we begin National #SmallBusinessWeek, @klobuchar.senate.gov, @markey.senate.gov, @smith.senate.gov and I stood with small business owners from across the country that have been directly impacted by Trump’s tariff catastrophe.
Trump and RFK Jr. have fired more than a quarter of World Trade Center Health Program staff.
These cuts have nothing to do with efficiency and all to do with hurting those who risked their lives on 9/11.
NY Republicans: Find the courage our heroes had and stand up to these cuts.
Instead of advancing someone who'd bring order & stability to Social Security, the GOP is backing Frank Bisignano—a billionaire CEO with zero experience in government or Social Security
But he has plenty of experience in slashing jobs & downsizing!
That's who they want in charge of your benefits
