Enorce the Emoluments Clause – Stop President Trump from Personal Enrichment with Foreign Government Money

Unlike recent Presidents, President Trump has taken no meaningful steps to disentangle himself from his private business interests. He and his family thus continue to benefit from the myriad Trump companies, many of which receive money and benefits from
foreign countries. Among other examples, a
recent report found at least 22 governments have spent money at Trump Organization properties and the Metallurgical Corporation of China, a Chinese government company,

loaned $500 million for the benefit of a massive development project in Indonesia, called Lido City, in which the Trump Organization is involved.

Improve Nutrition Education for Healthcare Professionals

There is no doubt that healthcare spending in the United States continues to rise around the nation. Cardiovascular disease cost Americans 555 billion dollars in 2016, and costs from chronic disease treatment account for over 75 percent of total national
health spending. Many chronic diseases, such as heart disease, cancer and stroke are linked to dietary and lifestyle choices. Raising awareness and increasing nutrition and physical activity education can help improve many American’s diets and help reduce
these risks of these chronic diseases.

Support Apprentices: Cosponsor the Promoting Apprentices in Public Service Act

Please join me in cosponsoring the Promoting Apprentices in Public Service Act. As you know, there are currently 585,000 apprentices developing the critical skills necessary to compete in a 21st Century economy. Apprentices that successfully complete an
apprenticeship program earn a higher median annual wage than the median for all workers. In order to build upon the success that these apprenticeship programs produce, the federal government must capitalize on apprentices’ experience and provide resources
to compel more men and women to enter into these programs.

Cosponsor the Social Enterprise Ecosystem and Economic Development (SEEED) Commission Act

Throughout the United States, social entrepreneurship has gained increasing recognition as a movement and an economic phenomenon that benefits our economy and creates jobs. As a former Mayor, I am all too familiar with many of the difficult and sometime
overwhelming challenges facing our local communities. But our social entrepreneurs are transforming society in ways traditional systems and government programs cannot, which makes it imperative that policymakers recognize and support social enterprises.

Support Team USA and America’s Athletes!

Over the past several decades, the Olympic movement has strayed from its roots. The time is now to take a serious look at the USOPC and if it is fulfilling its mission as outlined by the Ted Stevens Amateur Sports Act. As several Congressional and private
investigations revealed, United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee officials were more concerned with protecting the Olympics brand and producing medals than athlete’s health and wellbeing. The time is right to take an Olympics wide accounting of the
underlying culture that lead to the multiple sexual abuse scandals plaguing the Olympics community.
A Congressionally mandated Commission will allow experts in sports governance, coaching, child welfare and abuse to address these issues in a timely manner, free from politics

Support Naloxone Access

Increasing naloxone access has been critical in the fight against the opioid crisis, especially as the problem has progressed from abuse of prescription drugs to the use of heroin and fentanyl. Both the federal and state governments have taken steps to promote
access through the widespread use of standing orders, which allow providers to write a single prescription that can be used by any individual.
