Elon Musk is an unelected, self-interested billionaire with no business anywhere near the Pentagon.

On our veterans' toughest days, they depend on VA employees for care and support. Firing the people that step up for our vets is unthinkable. If you or a veteran you know needs help, please dial 988 and press 1 for veteran-specific support.

President Trump's Executive Order to shutdown the Department of Education will have devastating impacts on millions of students that rely on the department for funding.

How does fueling a hunger epidemic make America great?

Longer wait times at the VA will delay treatment for the brave men and women who served our country. This administration's cuts will cost lives. www.rochesterfirst.com/news/senator...

DOGE is closing nearly 50 Social Security offices across the country — including in White Plains — and now they're limiting phone support. Make no mistake, this is a full-blown attack on Social Security. Elon Musk is trying to take away benefits you earned. www.axios.com/2025/03/17/s...

Absolutely shameful. Instead of erasing history, this administration should be focusing on restoring their cuts to the VA. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/14/u...

Good news: the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act is helping take guns off the streets and keep New Yorkers safe. www.bkreader.com/policy-gover...

Elon Musk just admitted he wants to come after your Social Security, Medicaid, and Medicare. Every Republican should call out this attack and join Democrats to defend the programs that millions of Americans rely on. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Our economy can't afford this administration's chaos.

Millions of Americans depend on Medicaid for services like cancer screenings and pediatric care. Cutting Medicaid to give tax breaks to billionaires like Elon Musk is heartless and un-American.

Elon Musk's cuts at the Social Security Administration could undermine the entire Social Security system, delaying checks and leaving millions without the benefits they've earned. Enough is enough. Republicans must join Democrats to protect Social Security.

When Democrats and Republicans came together to pass the PACT Act, we all understood our country's responsibility to care for veterans exposed to toxins while serving. Now, President Trump and Elon Musk want to slash the workforce that cares for our heroes.

Cutting staff at the Social Security Administration could result in the collapse of the entire Social Security system. It's unthinkable, & I'm demanding answers. Millions of Americans depend on the benefits they earned, and Elon Musk has no right to take them away.
