Trump cutting $11.25 million in RI port funding makes no sense. The Port of Davisville drives Rhode Island’s economy and provides families with good union jobs. This action is anti-growth, anti-infrastructure, and anti-American competitiveness.

I’ll work with anyone and do everything I can in Congress to get this funding restored.

Ask the SCOTUS how a convicted felon could be in the White House.

You will get a Republican to work with you if you can show the impact as an infographic, like dem.ri.gov/sites/g/file... showing $103.3 million revenue made by fishing companies in 2021.

It’s really too bad that the founders of our country invested sole budgetary authority in the executive branch and didn’t think of some system that might be able to maybe balance that power

It makes perfect sense to the Trumpian mind. RI didn't vote for him. That's all he needs to know.

@amo.house.gov shows us the impact. It will do more to drive messaging. Get your staff data nerd to do it. See dem.ri.gov/sites/g/file... for starter ideas. Get data and show the impact of losing 11.25million. People will share it.
