The tariff refund portal goes live today. Maryland businesses should review eligibility and apply as soon as possible. My team will be watching closely to ensure the process works as intended, and every Maryland business gets the money back they are owed.

NEW: Another $2.7 million in federal LIHEAP funds are on the way to help RIers afford their energy bills – which are up nearly 13% nationally over last year. I’ll continue leading the bipartisan charge to lower energy costs & ensure RIers can afford their home utility bills.

It was great to say hello to my friends in the travel industry! Tourism is central to NV's economy, and although our travel industry has taken a hit from the chaos out of Washington, I’ll keep fighting to strengthen it and support the workers whose livelihoods depend on strong visitation numbers.

56,497 companies already applied to get $166 BILLION in refunds for Donald Trump's illegal tariffs. But where’s Trump’s plan to give the American people their money back? Every second that ticks by with no refund for American families is theft in broad daylight.

The Trump admin wants access to the personal medical records of millions of federal workers, including their medical visits, prescriptions, and treatment histories. This is just wrong. I'm urging them to reserve course on this dangerous decision, which puts Americans’ privacy at risk.

Trump's illegal war is emptying the bank accounts of Americans and is now impacting their ability to travel. Whether it’s for vacation or in times of an emergency, Americans should always have the ability to get where they need to go at affordable prices. Americans did not vote for this disaster.

The Trump admin portal for tariff refunds finally opened this morning, and I'm already hearing from small business owners that it's faulty. Small businesses and families deserve easy, automatic refunds—not errors and extra work to get their money back.

You're not imagining it. Thanks to Trump, inflation is the highest it's been in 2 years. Gas, energy bills, groceries—they all cost more because of Trump’s tariffs and war with Iran.

Our elections are ALREADY safe and secure. Republicans know that. But they also know that Americans are unhappy with their chaotic agenda. So instead of helping their constituents, they'd rather perpetuate lies about fraud to justify making it HARDER to vote them out of power.

Arizona already has universal school vouchers, and it’s led to wasted money and underfunded schools. Now, Congress plans to spend tens of billions of your tax dollars to take it nationwide. I’m fighting to stop this to protect public education and our kids’ futures.

Marylanders are paying over $4.00 per gallon of gas. Trump may have declared victory, but costs are still skyrocketing. The war he promised he'd never start is spiking the prices he promised to bring down. Betrayal all around. www.cnbc.com/2026/04/19/g...
