Washington, D.C. – Congressman Veasey released the following statement following Trump’s Presidential Address on March 4, 2025:
“The few moments of coherent speech by Trump at the Presidential Address was proof that he doesn't give a shit about you or your family” said Congressman Veasey. Don't be fooled, by the made-up numbers or the empty promises, this is an all-out attack on working Americans. It's an attack on American jobs. It's an attack on your health care. It's an attack on social security. Trump stands for Taxes, Tariffs, and Terminations."
