This trend of the President doling out disaster aid to the states run by his political friends, but blocking it for states who he sees as his foes, is un-American and has to stop.

Extreme weather doesn’t see party lines, and neither should our response to help communities rebuild and recover.

In fact, it will do the opposite. Taking special education out of the Department of Education and moving it to another department that has next to zero expertise in education programs makes zero sense.

I’m proud to have helped craft this bill and voted for it, and I will continue working with anyone to ensure Wisconsinites can make ends meet, achieve homeownership, and invest and live in the communities they love.

This bill should have been law weeks ago, but President Trump chose to play politics instead of listening to families struggling with the high cost of just about everything.

I’ve travelled across Wisconsin talking to families who are begging for relief from high housing costs – renters’ budgets are stretched thin and homeownership is simply out of reach for so many.

Ultimately, these changes will make it harder for grant recipients to apply for and manage federal funds – undermining public safety, public health, economic competitiveness, and the government’s ability to address rising costs.

OMB’s proposal also transforms federal grants from policy tools that Congress uses to promote the public good into a political cudgel that the President plans to use to punish his perceived political foes while rewarding himself and his…

This proposal dramatically expands agencies' authority to the point where the President could terminate or suspend any grant at any time for any reason and without any notice.

President Trump has shown time and again he’s willing to use and abuse the full force of the federal government to intimidate and harm Americans.

They’re trying to kick people who are fully eligible off the program.

This administration needs to stop putting disability programs on the back burner, ensure these services resume as soon as possible, and apologize to the Americans who have been thrown into chaos from their cruelty.

President Trump is cutting off a lifeline for Americans who are paralyzed – all while he goes full steam ahead building his luxury ballroom and is begging for more money for a war of choice in Iran.

If the election mail delays that we saw this spring are not addressed, they are likely to disenfranchise an even greater number of voters during the fall elections

Accordingly, we insist that the Postal Service abandon this proposed regulation and return to its core mission of providing universal postal services to every American.

This proposed rule risks disenfranchising millions of voters.

We write for a second time regarding the unconstitutional and illegal attempt to transform the United States Postal Service (USPS) into an election administration agency controlled by the White House and President Trump.

I call on Donald Trump to restore the service without needless limitations and with the most qualified, experienced people answering the phone calls and text messages from these vulnerable young people.

We again insist that you follow the law, refuse to implement President Trump’s Executive Order, and withdraw this presidentially-directed proposed rule.

The Trump administration never should have shut down the ‘press 3’ option and put young Americans at further risk.

Title IX changed what was possible for generations of women and girls – in classrooms, laboratories, boardrooms, and on playing fields.

I’m glad that we are finally cracking down on Wall Street investors that come into our communities, buy up single-family homes, and jack up prices for families or cut them out entirely.

Our bill will cut red tape and make it easier to get shovels in the ground and build more affordable housing.

These attacks aren’t going to stop unless we make clear in law that the government has no place making decisions for women, and I’m not throwing in the towel until that goal is reached.

But Republicans and Donald Trump continue to chip away at what is left of women’s right to choose.
