Rhode Islanders have had enough of Trump's reign of terror. Across my State, they know when so-called enforcement becomes intimidation, when profiling and abuse are rampant, and when accountability is absent. Now, instead of restoring trust or lowering costs, Republicans are doing it again. Their first big, ugly bill ripped billions out of our healthcare system that will make millions sicker and poorer, all to spend $170 billion on ICE and CBP's rogue tactics. Now this budget doubles down on that spending spree, dumping another $70 billion of taxpayer funding into the same cruel system without any reforms. So here it is. They are using your money not to lower costs for gas, groceries, rent, or healthcare, not to help people, but to fund raids, roundups, and fear in American communities. I will not stand by while costs rise, rights are trampled, and working families are left behind. So we have a choice. Use your tax dollars to fund masked men and their masked raids or help families put food on the table, keep a roof over their head, and stay healthy. I choose families. I urge a 'no' vote on this latest Republican budget betrayal.
