John,
In case you missed it, President Trump gave a joint address to Congress last night – the longest such speech in our history.
Instead of using the occasion to unite the country, his remarks were incredibly divisive, leaning into the rhetoric we’ve seen since his inauguration in January.
I hoped last night would be different. I hoped to hear real ideas to lower costs, protect Social Security and Medicare, and create good jobs. What we got instead was a flood of lies from Donald Trump.
Lies about tariffs, lies about Elon Musk’s “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE), lies about his budget cuts, lies about Social Security, the list goes on.
What I was hoping to hear, and never did, was a real plan for the American people. In his one hour and forty minute speech, a pitiful two minutes were used to discuss lowering the cost of living.
None of Trump’s plans are changing anything for the better – in fact, his actions are deliberately making our country worse. I’m doing all I can in Congress to combat the lies, but I can’t face this alone.
Please chip in $3, or any amount you can, to my campaign. Your support today will go a long way in our effort to retake the House and provide oversight on this administration.
Thank you,
Mike
