Three-time Trump voter on his economy:

"My kids' daycare went up. I can't afford the cost of food. Using credit cards for everyday expenses. No money left after their bills are paid. Pretty much just a whole bunch of financial mess... I'm very, very let down because I feel like it's only gotten worse."

We stand ready to fight back against this attack on our secular democracy and the rights of non-Christians.

Today, I introduced a resolution to fully condemn the distorted message that was preached at President Trump during the National Prayer Service on Monday. I strongly urge my colleagues to act quickly on this resolution to show President Trump that the sermon given is not reflective of the faith community at large.
