Trump doesn't want YOU to vote. Joined Women’s Fund RI, Common Cause RI, and RI Secretary of State Amore to call out the so-called SAVE America Act which makes it harder for married women, seniors & military families to vote. Proud to stand with so many Rhode Islanders fighting for our rights!

The American people have EYES. We could see gas prices under $3 before Trump, and we can see them now over $4 and rising while he retreats into a White House ballroom project. A BALLROOM. People are struggling to eat and he’s picking out chandeliers. #TrumpsGasCrisis
