Glad to hear that the Strait of Hormuz is open again. Of course, Iran can close it again at any time. Trump’s expensive, dangerous, and unnecessary war has allowed Iran to weaponize the Strait. Iran controls it and there is no going back. Thanks, Trump.

Donald Trump's war of choice has left our farmers paying the price. Today, I was in Mt. Horeb to talk with farmers about how the illegal war in Iran is driving up fertilizer and fuel prices. This war needs to end, now.

@ibewinternational.bsky.social is a historic union that that quite literally helped light every corner of this country. From helping us win World War II to bringing power to rural America to helping the Artemis II launch -- IBEW workers are foundational to who we are as a nation.

Access to capital is access to success. Our bipartisan Investing in All of America Act will help rural small businesses get the resources they need to succeed. It’s now on its way to becoming law!

Last year, Trump’s cabinet showed up to Congress completely unprepared to defend Trump’s indefensible budget. It’s that time of year again and I’ll be pressing top officials for the answers the American people deserve.

I met with AARP NJ to discuss how we can work together to support caregivers and protect seniors from fraud and scams. As a member of the Sandwich Generation looking after my two little boys and my aging parents, I am grateful to have AARP NJ as a partner in this fight.

Worthy piece, particularly describing Trump’s dark blather as “the photographic negative of the Sermon on the Mount.”

Every airplane ticket includes a fee intended to support security – but more than $13 billion collected from the fee is redirected elsewhere. That’s why I helped advance a bipartisan bill through committee to ensure these dollars actually go toward security!

Nevada’s tourism economy depends on safe and secure air travel. To keep up with an evolving security environment, we must continue investing in screening technology improvements to ensure travel safety at airports.

For all Trump cares, gas could be $100 a gallon. Skyrocketing fuel prices don’t affect him. But that’s not reality for the vast majority of Americans. We need to bring down costs ASAP.

Tulsi Gabbard’s decision to recommend a lawful whistleblower for prosecution is yet another example of her willingness to carry out politically motivated, bogus orders to appease President Trump.

While Trump gave tax cuts to billionaires, 70,000 Arizonans have already lost their health insurance this year because of rising costs. I’m working to lower premiums and protect Medicaid so our families can keep their doctors and rural clinics can keep their doors open.

Predatory for-profit colleges provide low-quality education, worthless degrees, & crushing student debt. I sent a letter to Illinois principals, counselors, & teachers to encourage them to warn college-bound students & their families about the risks associated with attending for-profit colleges.

I shared the continuing concerns of Michiganders with deep ties to Lebanon and Israel, and discussed how to turn this into a durable ceasefire that supports the security of both countries.

Yesterday, I met with U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Michel Issa, just a few hours after some of the first direct-contact between the Lebanese and Israeli governments helped move us to a temporary ceasefire between the two.

Deepfakes are creating new ways to exploit—and these images can ruin lives. That’s why I worked to pass the bipartisan TAKE IT DOWN Act so victims can get images removed from social media platforms and law enforcement can hold perpetrators accountable.

Yesterday, the House passed an extension of TPS for Haiti in a major bipartisan vote. I applaud my partner in this fight @pressley.house.gov for her leadership and urge the Senate to vote to protect TPS for 350,000 Haitian nationals—including 46,000 in Massachusetts—immediately.

Senator Mike Lee and I disagree on a lot. But we both are deeply concerned about warrantless government surveillance of Americans. Read our op-ed in NYT below about how we can reform FISA Section 702 to protect our national security while upholding Americans’ constitutional rights.

Trump is fighting a war in our name, at our expense, but without our say. That's why I introduced a War Powers Resolution to end Trump's costly war of choice. It's time we bring this to an end and focus on making life less expensive for families.

Another member of the Admin’s mass deportation apparatus is leaving after terrorizing families & communities with indiscriminate immigration raids. I hope the departures at DHS will give Congressional Republicans pause before they pour more money into the President’s anti-immigrant agenda.

There is no authority for the President to make sweeping changes to our elections. But that’s exactly what President Trump is trying to do. The executive order goes against the very heart of the free and fair elections that make our nation a strong democracy.

The administration says we can’t invest in child care or health care — but wants $200 billion for a unilateral war in Iran. That same money could lower costs and expand care for Americans across the country.

Corruption at the highest levels of government is destabilizing. We must make major reforms to address corruption at all levels of government. It won’t be easy but it is necessary.

One year ago today, I met Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. As I said from day one, this case was never about one man, it was about all of us. If they can deprive him of his rights, they can deprive you of yours. One year on, they’re still trying but we’re still fighting.

Let’s be crystal clear about what is happening: Donald Trump is literally paying for bullets and bombs for war abroad by cutting health care for Americans here at home.
