“Edesia supports domestic peanut farmers, creates jobs, and helps distribute the only proven treatment for acute malnutrition and famine. To date, Edesia's products have saved over 26 million lives around the globe, including in sub-Saharan Africa. Mr. Speaker, as the son of West African immigrants, it means the world that America shows up in this way, in this important way, for the vulnerable. Now, more than ever, we should be investing in Edesia's work, not stripping them of funding. That is why I will be relentless in sounding the alarm and pushing Trump to release the remaining funds that Edesia is owed. I will continue to fight so that Edesia's programs receive the funding they desperately need in fiscal year 2026. The stakes are literally life and death for millions of children, mothers, and vulnerable populations across the world.”
“Today, I join President Ruggerio's friends, family, staff, and colleagues who will carry the torch that he lit and ensure that his legacy shines a light for generations to come. Supporting Edesia Nutrition Mr. AMO. Mr. Speaker, today, I also rise in support of the lifesaving producer of humanitarian aid, Rhode Island's own nonprofit, Edesia Nutrition. Since coming to Congress, I have been proud to advocate for Edesia in hearing after hearing as vice ranking member of the Foreign Affairs Committee. I have joined over 200 of my Democratic colleagues in an amicus brief to push back on Trump's and Elon Musk's unlawful destruction of USAID, and I have led bipartisan appropriations letters to support funding for Edesia's work. Why? Because it reflects the best of America's values.”
“From infrastructure to the environment, labor protections and more, he fought for the places and people who make the Ocean State great, hardworking people, like my mom who worked for years as an SEIU nurse in Rhode Island nursing homes. Every time our paths crossed, he would remind me how, with enough hard work, grit, and determination, that anything is possible, even my own story. He loved our State, and he loved our Rhode Island State House. Throughout his tenure, he mentored so many legislators, countless legislators, regardless of the aisle they sat on. His passing last week, after a lengthy battle with cancer, is both a profound loss for our community and for our State. Earlier this week, we came together at St. Anthony Church in North Providence to remember this beloved icon in Rhode Island history.”

Mr. AMO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Rhode Island's late, great, senate president, Dominick Ruggerio. Mr. Speaker, ``Donny,'' as he was referred to by those who knew him best, was a ``force'' to be reckoned with, a ``forza,'' as his Italian loved ones would say. For over 40 years as a State legislator for North Providence, a jewel of the First Congressional District, President Ruggerio served as champion for all Rhode Islanders.”

“Recently, I visited a Head Start provider in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, to hear from those who rely on the great program. I met with Savanna, who told me that Head Start is how she provided her children with safety, stability, and education after years of struggling. Head Start helps families like Savanna's break the cycle of trauma, fostering resilience and creating lasting change. Mr. Speaker, let's choose a better path for our vulnerable neighbors. Let's protect Head Start. ____________________”

Mr. AMO. Mr. Speaker, across the country, Head Start lives up to its name. It provides quality early childhood education so that working- class families can get ahead. However, right now, Head Start is under attack from Donald Trump and Republicans in this Chamber. They froze program funds, closed regional offices, and forced mass layoffs of those who administer Head Start. Worse still, Republican budget proposals open the door to hundreds of billions of dollars in cuts to Head Start.”
“It is not fear-mongering to say that Republicans' plans would hurt Al to prop up billionaires. I will be voting ``no'' for the middle class, for families, for seniors, and for folks like Al.”
“Mr. Speaker, Republicans refuse to listen. They refused in February when they spiked my amendments to support Medicaid and SNAP, and they refused again today. This is despite the pleas of Americans protesting Donald Trump and Republicans' plan to steal their healthcare and let kids go hungry and despite the overwhelming majority crying out for everyday Americans over the whims of billionaires. Clearly, Republicans don't care about the facts or figures. Maybe they will listen to my constituent Al. Al is a 74-year-old resident of an assisted living facility in East Providence. He is petrified of Republican cuts that will force him onto the street. Al needs Medicare and Medicaid to make ends meet. Even with assistance, he lives on $120 a month. That is $30 a week.”
