While Trump spends his time plotting his plans for Venezuela, Americans are struggling at home. Social Security is a mess. Trump's tariffs are increasing costs on everything. And congressional Republicans let health care costs skyrocket. Trump is putting America last.

Trump's baseless attacks on America and New York’s offshore wind projects are killing good-paying union jobs and driving up electricity costs. He must reverse this order and allow these projects to deliver low-cost energy to American families.

The Trump administration has targeted Social Security at every turn — closing field offices, driving up wait times, and threatening the safety net that millions of Americans rely on. We can't let this administration damage the agency that allows our seniors to age with dignity.

Our seniors lost nearly $5 billion to scammers in 2024. That’s devastating. And with the rise of AI, these scams are only getting more advanced. We must protect our seniors. In response, I’ve introduced legislation requiring the FBI to develop a strategy for combating scams.

That’s right – Trump’s tariffs could result in 450,000 fewer new homes through 2030. Trump is fueling the affordable housing crisis. We need more homes, not less.

Donald Trump thinks affordability is a “hoax.” He has no idea how much groceries have gone up. How much rent has gone up. How much insurance has gone up. How much electricity has gone up. He’s full of sh*t.
