This is the most corrupt administration in American history. Trump only cares about enriching himself and those around him, all while slashing your health care and driving up the costs of gas and groceries.

The last 3 Democratic Presidents have created 24X times as many jobs as the last 3 Republicans. 50 million under Democratic leadership, and just 2 million under Republicans. Democrats are better for the economy.
Real wage growth was negative for the fifth month in a row in August.

Donald Trump’s reckless trade war with Canada is a huge blow to Wisconsin’s economy, and is driving up the cost of living. Canada is our closest trading partner. We should be strengthening the relationship, not playing petty games.

Agreed! That’s why I’m leading legislation — the Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act — to repeal the national federal tax credit voucher scheme included in the Republicans’ so-called One Big, Beautiful Bill.

Rep Steil is leading the charge on legislation that exempts Trump from stock trading oversights and allows these corrupt and self-dealing trades to continue. The Administration is cashing in while you are faced with runaway gas and grocery prices.
BREAKING: Trump bought up to $100,000 in bonds tied to a Georgia coal plant. 57 days later, he exempted that plant from EPA pollution limits.

The new voucher rules issued by the Trump administration make it clear as day their plan is to funnel taxpayer dollars into private schools while our public schools are asked to do more with less. Public dollars should strengthen public schools—not subsidize private education. I’m leading the effort to repeal this voucher scheme. washingtonpost.com/education…

This is devastating news. Salah’s case is part of a longstanding effort by the Trump administration to silence, target, and punish those who engage in protected political speech with which they disagree. This sets a dangerous new precedent that undermines the rights and freedoms that we all cherish. I support his appeal. Salah should remain in our community.

Milwaukee is hosting G20 trade ministers this week. While Milwaukee is resilient, Trump’s trade policies are failing our workers, families, and businesses. I urge the Administration to seize the moment to abandon its senseless trade wars that are making everything cost more. It’s time to advance policies that will actually work for us and make us stronger.

Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans wanted to give billionaires more tax handouts, and they did. To pay for it, they cut SNAP, forcing Americans, including foster youth, to go hungry. I’m working hard to reverse these cruel cuts.

Hungrier. Sicker. Poorer. That is Donald Trump and the Republican Party’s vision for the American people, and it will be their legacy.

Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans ripped away SNAP protections for some of our most vulnerable communities, including youth aging out of the foster care system. I’m leading legislation to restore those protections, because we should be providing these young people the resources to secure stability for themselves.

Natives face some of the most acute housing shortages of any population. NAHASDA gives Tribes the tools they need to serve their community. I am pleased to see this legislation advance in the Senate and hope to advance NAHASDA in the House.
SCIA advanced S. 5354, the NAHASDA Modernization Act of 2026. Following testimony from Cherokee Nation Deputy Principal Chief Bryan Warner on behalf of NCAI, we thank the committee and urge Congress to pass this legislation before the end of the year.

You can’t claim you care about moms while also voting to cut programs that support them. @RepGwenMoore:

Nothing says “we care about farmers” than starting another forever war in the Middle East to drive up diesel prices right before harvest season.

Trump & Republicans are looting America’s land and treasure. MAGA vandalizes what it can’t sell for scrap. Thank God Rep. Beatty is at her garrison on the board and fighting back.
Joyce Beatty is the unlikely leader of the opposition to President Trump’s push to rebrand the Kennedy Center in his own honor. on.wsj.com/4iGsUUY

🚨Since Trump won’t let the press corps in the White House, we didn’t get audio today. Thankfully someone leaked it to me.

Donald Trump and Republicans are destroying the economy and the American dream.
The labor share of economic output hit its lowest point on record in Q2 2026.
