Small businesses across New Hampshire are facing spiking fuel costs—squeezing Granite State business owners at a time when they can least afford it. From tariffs to the war in Iran, President Trump is hurting small businesses in my state. www.keenesentinel.com/news/local/h...

Families can't afford to fill their tank and put food on the table because of Republican wars and tariffs. Health care is more expensive than ever thanks to Republican cuts and obstruction. Americans simply don't care about a stupid ballroom.

U.S. and Iranian ships are exchanging missile fire today in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump’s claims that hostilities have ceased were bullshit. He is lying to the American people and prolonging his disastrous war of choice— And he’s doing it illegally.

Trump can call this war over all he wants… Americans know the truth. It’s way easier to get into a war in the Middle East than it is to get out of one. We’re still deep in this one.

I’m glad to see the Supreme Court has temporarily restored mail access to mifepristone after a lower court tried to get rid of it – and I urge the Court to move swiftly to permanently protect access to this critical medication for women.
- JR
Mifepristone has been used safely and effectively for decades, and restricting access puts women’s lives at risk. 🧵

My Prediction Markets Security & Integrity Act would regulate this scheme for what it is—gambling—& put much needed rules to prevent insider trading, addiction & misleading or dangerous bets.

Prediction markets are rigged against consumers—insider trading, misleading bets & worse returns than Vegas slot machines. A shocking 67% of profits go to only 0.1% accounts.

Family farms are in crisis. We need to end tariffs on our trade allies. We need to provide more assistance after natural disasters. And we need to pass a Farm Bill that gives farmers the price stability they need.

The American people cannot rely on the courts alone to protect their rights. The only real remedy is for Congress to do its job: pass laws that protect the Voting Rights Act, and ban partisan gerrymandering once and for all.
- ES
Politicians shouldn't get to draw the lines of the districts they plan to run in. Nobody gets to cook the books for their party. And the only antidote to what we're seeing now is to pass a federal law that calls on all states to do the same.

This comes as President Trump kicked off a partisan redistricting war that has rippled across the nation. Here in Michigan, voters made their voices heard in 2018 when we passed a ballot initiative -- with overwhelming bipartisan support -- that ended partisan gerrymandering altogether.
- ES
The Supreme Court again attacked the right to fair representation in Congress. By again slicing away at the protections of the Voting Rights Act, communities of color in Michigan and across the country could see their voices diminished and lose the ability to elect a representative of their choice.

GAS PRICES ARE $4.39 AND CLIMBING I stood at a gas station in Upstate NY with veterans, farmers, and families paying the price every time they fill up. This is Trump country. They don’t want to pay for his reckless Iran war. They’re saying: enough. End the war. Stop the pain at the pump.

When discussing a bill that would tackle housing affordability, Trump reportedly said, “no one gives a [bleep] about housing,” insisting Republicans focus on his voter disenfranchisement bill, the SAVE America Act, instead. This Admin would rather undermine democracy than lower costs for families.

Breaking good news: The Supreme Court just restored access to mifepristone via mail, pharmacy and telehealth. But remember it is simply temporary and the fight to restore a woman’s right to health care access continues state-by-state and on the national level.

Trump passed the largest cuts to Medicaid in history. Hospitals are laying off staff and closing because of him. Right now, in several states like mine, he's using AI to deny seniors on Medicare the treatments their doctors are recommending. These are just facts.

$2,300 – that’s how much MORE the things you buy every day have cost your family since Donald Trump took office. These skyrocketing prices aren’t what he promised you on the campaign trail. We need real solutions to address this cost of living crisis.

This is terrifying. After Director Patel purged the FBI workforce, 9,000 seasoned professionals were forced to work on a Trump pet project. I have repeatedly questioned the FBI about this ill-advised threat to our public safety and readiness.

Hegseth says he’s ordering a “real science” study on women in combat arms. But this isn’t about discovery—it’s about doubt. Women in combat have already proven themselves. The real question is whether this regime will follow the facts or cherry-pick findings to fit its agenda.

Women deserve the right to make their own health care decisions. We’ll fight any attempt to restrict reproductive freedom at every turn.

While I’m glad the Supreme Court has temporarily reinstated access to mifepristone, women are still left in limbo with a constantly shifting landscape of regulations across the country. We need to pass strong legislation that protects reproductive care.

Firefighters and nurses don’t get to hide their money in a trust fund and skip out on paying their taxes—billionaires shouldn’t get to either. My new bill would close tax loopholes for billionaires with more than $50 million in dynasty trusts.

Limiting access to healthcare that has been in use for decades & has been proven safe & effective is an attack on women. SCOTUS must continue to uphold access to mifepristone & Congress must act to codify Roe & stop these attacks once & for all.

Alrededor de los EE.UU., legislación en contra de inmigrantes está fallando en asambleas estatales—en gran parte porque la comunidad comercial se está oponiendo.

I'm glad to see the Supreme Court standing up for reproductive health and freedom. We can't go backwards. This is only one part of the fight to protecting abortion access. We must continue to advocate for Americans' right to make decisions about their own bodies and healthcare.

I have a real problem with political gerrymandering. Last week, the Supreme Court ruled to limit parts of the Voting Rights Act. Ultimately, this will make it easier for states to dilute the votes of Black voters and other minority groups. We need to outlaw gerrymandering. Period.
