I’ve heard from farmers, manufacturers, and small business owners across Wisconsin who tell me that Trump’s tariffs are crushing them. They deserve certainty, not this unnecessary chaos.

Giving DOGE staffers — who have little to no experience in agriculture — sweeping access to farmers' most sensitive data is a mistake that could put our farmers’ privacy and livelihoods in jeopardy.

Americans are footing the bill for an unnecessary trade war, grocery prices are rising, and inflation is up. Trump came into office promising to lower costs. So far, he’s done the opposite.

I’ve been traveling the state and visiting food pantries that are already struggling to feed all the hungry families in our communities. Sadly, it’s only going to get worse when more families lose their food stamps because of Republicans’ budget bill.

Everyone should be able to afford their healthcare — especially our healthcare workers. I support these health professionals in their fight for fair benefits and a safer workplace. Mercyhealth should negotiate in good faith so our workers can get back to caring for Wisconsinites.
“We are mothers and daughters. We are fathers. We have children. We want to get back to work. We want to get back to taking care of our patients and making the wages that can allow us to support our family," said Enrique Casiano, a nurse at Mercyhealth.

We are going in the wrong direction. Yesterday, we celebrated 3 years of the 988 suicide hotline saving lives. Today, Donald Trump is dismantling a key part of it that puts lifesaving help in reach for kids who are contemplating suicide. Just cruel.

Last night, Republicans gutted funding for our local public TV and radio – something that folks in Wisconsin, especially in our rural communities, rely on in cases of emergencies like floods, storms, and AMBER Alerts. And why? Because Donald Trump told them to.
The Senate passed a bill to cancel $9 billion in funding to foreign aid and public broadcasting. The House faces a Friday deadline to pass it next.

Elon Musk’s DOGE should not have access to Wisconsin farmers’ sensitive financial data. Allowing DOGE staffers to alter or cancel payments and loans with little oversight would be a blow to our farmers’ privacy and jeopardize their livelihoods.

I can’t believe I have to say this but shutting down the Department of Education is a bad idea. Wisconsin teachers, parents, and kids are going to pay the price for this.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon is expected to move quickly now that the Supreme Court has cleared the way for the Trump administration to continue unwinding her department.

Farmers’ suicide rate is 3.5x higher than everyone else, and we have to treat it like the crisis it is. Proud to partner with @SenJoniErnst to put lifesaving support within reach for rural Wisconsinites. Let’s pass it.
