Elissa Slotkin says what we’re all thinking in a nicer way.
Sen. Elissa Slotkin’s remarks in response to the Address of the Joint Session last night speak for many of us, neighbors and friends, here in Manatee County. Most of us, D & R alike, have shared values that are bigger than any one party.

The US imposed the Trump ordered tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada today. Guess who foots the bill...regular American citizens. Expect prices on food, beer and autos to climb by as much 25% in the coming weeks.

The 2025 Rep. Budget will sucker-punch the middle class here. It will raise local ACA premiums, cut aid for seniors and take food out of children's mouths. And, Vern Buchanan doesn't care - he voted for it.
