Trump & Republicans made the largest cuts to health care in American history so that they could dole out tax breaks to billionaires and blow billions on another war in the Middle East. For Republicans, there's always money for war and the super-rich—but never money for you.

Instead, Donald Trump chose to fund war. Congress must reclaim its constitutional authority and stop this illegal war now.

Trump’s illegal war with Iran cost $11.3 BILLION in the first six days alone. Here’s what that money could fund instead for the American people:

Let Me Be Blunt: Democrats have put forward multiple bills to fund DHS — Republicans keep rejecting them. I want to keep you in the loop.

Too many New Mexicans are being priced out of a place to live. I'm proud the Senate passed our legislation to help more families find a safe, affordable place to call home. New Mexicans deserve housing they can afford, and I’m committed to making that a reality.

That is not the level of growth we need to see in order to have any confidence for the future. Instead, it is another warning sign that the economic policies of this Administration are wrong-headed and need to be changed. (2/2)

The more data that comes in, the clearer it becomes that the economy is headed in the wrong direction. An already dismal initial estimate of growth for the fourth quarter of 2025 of 1.4 percent, was cut in half by today’s revision to 0.7 percent. (1/2)

It was great to meet with Prime Minister Minseok Kim of South Korea as well as Ambassador Kang Kyung-wha. The U.S.-ROK alliance is critically important to NJ and our country, and one we should continue to foster and grow. 1/3

I am keeping in my thoughts these six airmen and their families. I'm forever grateful for their service and sacrifice. President Trump must explain immediately how his administration plans to prevent this war from further endangering the lives of American troops and destabilizing the region.

Heartbroken by the loss of 6 more U.S servicemembers. I'm thinking of them, their loved ones, and all of our brave servicemembers. This cannot go on. Congress needs to do its job and end this war.

Not one more dime for an illegal war of choice that is making us less safe. The best way to protect our troops, end the killing of school children and civilians, reduce skyrocketing oil and gas prices, and stop wasting billions of taxpayer dollars is to cut off the funding.

My thoughts are with the Air Force and the entire military community in the wake of this tragedy. We know they will always answer the call and execute their missions, despite their grief. Congress must do its job and vote to end this war.

This loss of life is devastating, and I’m sending my most sincere condolences to their families who pay this tremendous sacrifice to our nation, too.

The true cost of war. 6 more Americans have been killed while executing their mission during Operation Epic Fury, never to return home to their loved ones.

Donald Trump is saying the quiet part out loud. He's driving up gas prices so his Big Oil cronies can rake in massive profits at your expense. No war with Iran.

With the expiration of the ACA’s enhanced premium tax credits, 22 million Americans will see their health care costs skyrocket—with the average recipient confronting premiums that are more than double what they once paid. This is the President's health care plan in action.

Donald Trump is demanding billions in personal payoffs from the federal government. It's taking abuse of taxpayer dollars to a whole new level. My Corruption Clawback Act would ensure that the government can get that money back when he leaves office.

Democrats tried to fund: ➡️TSA ➡️Cyber defense ➡️Coast Guard ➡️FEMA ➡️Everything at DHS but ICE & Border Patrol Republicans blocked every single bill. Why? They want to give ICE & CBP more money without basic reforms. Not on my watch.

The SAVE Act is nothing but modern-day voter suppression by another name. Republicans in Washington are trying to stop us from making our voices heard at the ballot box. When this comes before the Senate, I'll vote NO— as many times as it takes.

We’ve seen the havoc wreaked by Donald Trump’s mass deportation campaign. But it’s particularly harming the mental health of children of America—in schools, families, daycare centers. I’m announcing now: I’m bringing in survivors of the MAGA mass deportation campaign to the Senate on Tuesday.

Donald Trump is Putin’s puppet. Always has been, always will be.

Trump: “when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money.” Translation: “We” = Trump’s big fossil fuel donors.

Immigrants make our country stronger. Secretary Noem’s ouster, public outrage towards ICE, and so many other instances prove the Trump Administration is out of step with the American people.

The government can legally scoop up and read Americans' emails and texts, track everywhere they go, and feed huge amounts of data into AI without court oversight. Next month, Congress will have a chance to rein it all in. I'm leading a bipartisan bill to restore real privacy.

Yesterday’s attack at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan was an act of antisemitic hate and terrorism that must be called out. We have much more work to do to ensure that everyone is safe in their communities, particularly at houses of worship.

If the SAVE Trump Act passes, it will be easier to buy an assault rifle than it will be to register to vote. Let that sink in.

It costs American taxpayers $11,500 every second to fund Donald Trump’s war in Iran. So while your money flies away to fund this war, remember that Donald Trump wouldn't lift a finger to lower health care costs here in America.

Costs are ⬆️. Inflation is ⬆️. Economic growth is ⬇️. We are all feeling the squeeze of Trump’s tariffs, of higher prices as a result of Republican budget cuts, and of this war in Iran. You deserve a government that works for you, not against you.
