Congressman Gabe Amo
@RepGabeAmo
Proudly representing Rhode Island's First Congressional District in the United States Congress.
It’s Tuesday and Speaker Mike Johnson is sending Congress home to avoid talking about Jeffrey Epstein. We should be fulfilling our duty to serve Americans and address the cost of living crisis NOT helping the President hide from the truth. Shame.
I introduced the Stop NOAA Closures Act with @RepHuffman to block Trump from shuttering @NOAA facilities around the country. NOAA protects lives, livelihoods, and property by helping us predict, prepare, and respond. Americans deserve nothing less. #StopTheCuts
🚨Trump is gutting @NOAA and @NWS while climate change is causing catastrophic extreme weather.🌊🌪️🌀🔥 @RepHuffman and I introduced my Stop NOAA Closures Act so the President can’t close labs predicting storms & leave Americans vulnerable to disasters.
For all the Admin's talk about eliminating waste, @StateDept is planning to burn $10 million of taxpayer-funded lifesaving commodities — rather than selling them to willing buyers who would have delivered the aid to those who desperately need it. reuters.com/legal/litigati…
Spoke with young @epbgc leaders from East Providence about how the Boys and Girls Club helped them develop essential skills. Despite recent Trump administration threats, I’m committed to protecting @BGCA_Clubs funding for our future leaders.
🚨FEMA’s Urban Search & Rescue Chief just resigned because Trump’s mass firings & @Sec_Noem’s power trip are slowing down search & rescue, costing Americans’ lives. I’m demanding accountability from Trump on the Texas flood response to ensure FEMA can keep Americans safe.…
Met with @RhodeIslandFFA’s president to discuss career & technical education. Trump’s cuts to @usedgov are hampering @NationalFFA's ability to grow the next generation of RI agricultural leaders. I'm fighting in Congress to fund hands-on, skill-building education. 🌾
The United States cannot lead in weather protection, cannot harness innovation, and cannot protect lives and property – without people. This storm season is a reminder that we need a fully staffed National Weather Service. wsj.com/articles/lawma…
Wishing a very happy birthday to my friend representing Rhode Island's Second District, @Rep_Magaziner! Grateful to work for Rhode Islanders in Congress together!
The big, ugly bill is now a law. And it’s worse than we thought. ❌Millions kicked off health insurance 📈$3.4 trillion added to deficit 💵 More money out of your pocket This law dips into your pocket & steals from your kids & grandkids. It’s a betrayal of the American people.
JUST IN: President Trump’s "big beautiful bill," which he signed into law this month, will add $3.4 trillion to the U.S. national debt over the next decade, according to a new report by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
SNAP cuts are an attack on working Rhode Island families just trying to make ends meet. ⅓ of Rhode Islanders already struggle to afford groceries. Trump and Republicans' big, ugly law is full of red tape that will hurt Rhode Islanders. wpri.com/news/washingto…
1,000 more Americans will die each year. 100,000 more will be hospitalized. All because Trump and Republican lawmakers gutted health care to gift the ultra-rich an extra $847 a day. This big, ugly law is shameless. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
Check out this quiz from @nytimes to see how the 900+ page big, ugly law impacts you. *Spoiler alert: it only really pays off if you’re a whaling captain in Alaska or ultra-wealthy nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Nelson Mandela fought for justice, equality, and peace – showing the world that courage and conviction can dismantle injustice. Honoring his civil rights legacy today as we continue to stand up for real change.
Don’t just take it from my alarm bells: more than 50,000 Rhode Islanders will lose health coverage because of Trump’s big, ugly law. This will destabilize RI’s already strained health care system and cause premiums to skyrocket. Nothing beautiful about making people sicker…
More than 50,000 Rhode Islanders are expected to lose their health insurance in the coming years due to the “big beautiful bill,” as well as other changes happening at the federal level. My deep-dive into what’s happening locally 👇 wpri.com/target-12/over…
