● President Trump thinks Americans should “shut up about egg prices.”

● House Republicans are pushing a budget plan that is “likely to lead to” Medicaid cuts, and this week, President Trump endorsed it. More details are below!
I’m continuing to work with Democratic colleagues in Congress and outside organizations to push back against actions by the Trump administration.
Many Philadelphians have contacted me asking what’s being done to fight abuses by the Trump administration, including actions by the “DOGE” team led by a billionaire Trump donor - unelected, unconfirmed Elon Musk.
President Trump continues to flip-flop on things like a funding freeze affecting programs and benefits that Americans rely on, or whether he’ll slap new taxes (tariffs) of up to 25% on your groceries (currently paused, but only for 30 days).
My offices have heard from many constituents this week about the Trump administration’s “funding freeze,” which I oppose and believe to be unconstitutional. I remain concerned that this radical act will endanger vital services that so many Americans rely on such as Medicaid, SNAP, Meals on Wheels, Head Start, and veterans’ services.
