This is a win for your privacy & for election integrity. Yet again, the Trump Admin has lost in a court of law. While Pres. Trump repeats his lies about U.S. elections, I’ll remain steadfast in defending RI’s elections & protecting your rights.

Joined the Disabled American Veterans, Department of Rhode Island to help kick off their 91st annual convention and discuss my work in the U.S. Senate to ensure our veterans and those injured in service to our nation have access to the benefits and services they earned.
With the help of federal investments, South Kingstown’s brand new Perryville EMS Station will help boost public safety & public health by lowering response times & improving service. Proud to help cut the ribbon on this great new facility w/ @whitehouse.senate.gov & partners.
$18.1M in fed funds for RI’s innovative researchers will help grow capacity, discover new cures & treatments, improve health care & public health, and save lives. I’m working to expanding these investments to help advance pioneering research & promote hope and healing.
Americans are paying a steep price for Pres. Trump’s reckless and repeated mistakes in Iran. It is past time he seriously pursues a diplomatic, not military, solution to the war. Democrats will continue working to responsibly end Trump’s war abroad & lower costs at home.
On Yom HaShoah, #WeRemember & honor the millions of victims of the Holocaust and recommit ourselves to rooting out antisemitism & hate wherever we see it.
ICYMI – Sat down for a wide-ranging discussion on Trump’s reckless war in Iran, national security, NATO, & holding the Trump Admin accountable on @nbc10wjar.bsky.social News Conference. Watch here: turnto10.com/politics/10-...
Pres. Trump has an incoherent strategy in Iran. The American people & our servicemembers deserve better. I’m fighting to bring Trump’s misguided & reckless war in the Middle East to an end.
Trump’s Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) is shedding enforcement staff, dropping cases against corporate wrongdoers, leaving investors without relief, & diminishing the integrity of U.S. markets.
Pres. Trump must start putting Main Street over Wall Street wants.
Trump Admin is raising energy costs and withholding $400 million in LIHEAP energy assistance to help Americans in need lower their energy bills.
I’m leading a bipartisan push to get this funding flowing immediately for Rhode Islanders and Americans who’ve been hit by the Trump energy shock.
Last year, Pres. Trump raised your costs with his tariff taxes & massive health care cuts.
This year, Pres. Trump is raising your costs with his illegal war.
RIers have had enough. I’m fighting to stop this war, end the tariffs, & bring down your costs.
While you worry about healthcare and the price of gas bc of Trump’s war, he’s busy designing a 250-foot arch he's calling the "Arc d'Trump" #allabouthim www.bostonglobe.com/2026/04/10/n...
After delivering a $1 million earmark for URI to advance their quantum research, innovation, & discovery, I visited campus to celebrate #WorldQuantumDay with students & faculty and tour future site of URI’s next-gen low-temp Quantum lab.
Saddened to hear of the passing of MLB legend & RI native Davey Lopes. From his days as a 4-time MVP stealing bases w/ the Dodgers to coaching a host of teams, Davey was a great guy on & off the field. Check out this heartfelt tribute by ProJo’s Joe McDonald:
Grateful for the quick response from local firefighters & first responders at last night’s industrial explosion in East Providence. Keeping the injured workers, their families, & coworkers in our thoughts today and wishing them a speedy recovery.
Trump’s reckless immigration crackdown isn’t targeting the ‘worst of the worst.’ They are going after military families on base & separating newlyweds as they actively pursue legal paths to citizenship.
What Pres. Trump suggested in this morning’s Truth Social post is wrong, ominous, and against America’s interests and ideals. His reckless rhetoric is unacceptable.
So many GOP falsehoods about the DHS shutdown. But the truth is simple: Republican divisions and Pres. Trump’s lack of interest in paying all federal workers is the real reason GOP has yet to reopen DHS.
RIC & CCRI are doing great things to prepare RIers for good-paying careers in high-demand fields like cybersecurity.
New cyber apprenticeship program launched today will help connect more students with the skills & hands-on experience they need to succeed & help grow our economy.
U.S. media works hard to inform Americans, uphold the 1st Amendment, & respect sensitive details & nat’l security. Pres. Trump said he wants U.S. journalists prosecuted for reporting details on the downed U.S. plane, even though Israeli media apparently broke the news.
We are so grateful that U.S. forces successfully rescued both the pilot & weapon systems officer of the F-15 fighter jet that was shot down over Iran.
Since the East Bay Bike Path bridges went out of service in 2019, bike path lovers & neighbors wanted to bring them back better than ever.
Working w/ @whitehouse.senate.gov, we delivered $14M in fed investments to help make it happen.
Today we cut the ribbon on this great project!
Happy Easter & best wishes to all who celebrate! May your hearts & homes be filled with joy, love, faith, & family.
I oppose Trump’s unjustified defense budget increase. The U.S. Department of Defense doesn’t lack funding, but it currently lacks responsible civilian leadership & management. My statement: www.reed.senate.gov/news/release...
Dems will continue pushing for commonsense reforms to rein in out-of-control ICE & Border Patrol agents. Accountability must come for unjustified violence & unconstitutional actions. GOP should stop trying to ignore Americans’ demand for needed reform & oversight.
The unanimous agreement re-passed today is virtually same deal that was proposed a month ago, but Pres. Trump delayed it while trying to leverage DHS shutdown to punish federal workers & win unrelated concessions. He failed, wasted time & money & inflicted damage on avg Americans.
Today the GOP-controlled U.S. Senate once again repassed the exact same DHS funding bill. Pres. Trump endorsed it. Now House Republicans are last remaining obstruction. They should prioritize homeland security over petty intra-party squabble & reopen DHS immediately.
