Republicans in the Senate blocked our resolution to reclaim Congress's power to declare war and rein in Trump's illegal strikes in Venezuela because they're more interested in bending the knee to an authoritarian strongman than carrying out their oaths. Disgraceful.

53 years after Roe v. Wade and Republicans are as committed as ever to ripping away a woman's right to make her own decisions about her body and her life. We cannot let them win—I won’t let them win. We must keep speaking out and using our voices to fight back.

FBI agents are notoriously tight-lipped and media-shy. The fact that they’re coming forward in scores to raise the alarm about Patel’s horrible leadership should scare the hell out of all of us.

With an administration intent on sowing fear and distrust, we must stand tall and sure in our convictions.

One year into Trump’s term, his chaotic tariffs are only pushing higher prices on you. Americans deserve a better economic plan than this.

If Trump tries to withhold federal funds for Delaware in an attempt to force unpopular and far-right policies on our state, he will lose in court again. If he's actually interested in keeping Delaware safe, he could return funds to local police departments that DOJ has been withholding for a year.

This is Liam Ramos. He is 5 years old. ICE snatched him and his father on the way home from school, then used him as bait to target his family. A family who followed the rules. A child as bait. Their cruelty knows no end.

A secret memo allowing federal agents to invade Americans' homes without a warrant would be a historic violation of the Constitution and further justification for the immediate removal of Kristi Noem.

This is horrifying beyond belief. No one in their right mind can see this and think it is ok. ICE is out of control. Don't let anyone look away and remind everyone that this Republican Congress could put a stop to this TODAY.

Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress gave $30 billion to ICE. You know what also would have cost $30 billion? Extending those tax credits to help people afford health care this year. We should repeal Trump’s money for ICE and lower costs instead.

A U.S. citizen dragged out of his home, barely clothed, into the cold. A 5-year-old detained on his way home from preschool. This is the reality of what ICE is doing with their $75 billion budget. Wouldn’t this be better spent on health care?

The House just unanimously passed legislation I authored to repeal a last-minute provision that lets senators cash in—up to $500,000—for legally obtained phone records. It’s a wrong-headed cash grab. The Senate needs to end it.

Four CHILDREN, including a 5-year-old, were detained by ICE yesterday in Minnesota. This is who this regime thinks is the "worst of the worst"?

Instead of investigating the shooting of Renee Good, the Trump administration is subpoenaing Minnesota's state and local leaders. We need answers and accountability for Renee's death—not political games. www.ms.now/news/klobuch...

It's important to talk directly to those impacted by Trump's actions in Venezuela. When I sat down with members of NJ's Venezuelan community they told me, we cannot prioritize oil over democracy.

Fifty-three years after Roe v. Wade, politicians are still trying to control the most personal medical decisions Americans make. That’s why Arizona voters said enough in 2024 and enshrined reproductive freedom in our constitution.

Last year, Trump proposed big cuts to Chesapeake Bay clean up & restoration. Despite these threats, in the bill that passed Congress last week, we secured a record $93M for the Bay Program & restored funding for other critical programs that support the Bay. A win for Maryland.

Today the House is voting on the ICE funding bill. It doesn’t put meaningful constraints on ICE and I cannot support it. ICE’s funding was dramatically increased by the Republican bill last summer so they are now bigger than the FBI.

It doesn't take a genius to realize that when you ban abortion and try to criminalize OBGYNs for practicing medicine, there will be fewer OBGYNs in your state.

The Trump administration is threatening the jobs and livelihoods of Sikh drivers under the false claim it will make our roads safer. It won’t. They are far less likely to be in an accident than other drivers. In Bakersfield, I sat down with a group of Sikh truckers to hear their concerns.

As I told Mishal Husain last week, several unanswered questions remain about the long-term plan in Venezuela. But what is clear is this: every dollar spent in Venezuela costs Granite Staters, who are worried about rising grocery and energy bills.

Imagine being proud to have killed Roe v. Wade. Well, Trump is. He said so himself. Proud to force women to give birth, even in cases of rape, incest or when their health is at risk.

Trump is so unpopular for a simple reason: He said he would focus on costs. But groceries are up. Health care is up. American families are feeling the squeeze. They know the President is not fighting for them.

On the campaign trail, President Trump promised to address inflation and lower prices. But over the past year, Trump has cost Illinois households an extra $1,781 because of his unnecessary trade wars and petty grudges that dictate both his foreign and domestic priorities.

When given the opportunity to lower health care costs and extend the ACA tax credits, Senate Republicans refused to come to the table. And now, because of their negligence, millions of Americans have to choose between seeing a doctor or putting food on the table.

ICE insists they’re only detaining “the worst of the worst.” This is who they’re actually detaining in Minneapolis. Do five year old children like Liam look like the worst of the worst to you?

On this 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade, I promise to keep fighting to protect and restore a woman’s right to choose. A medical office is too small for a woman, her doctor, and the government.

The budget deal in Congress will give ICE another $10 BILLION. Absolutely not. ICE is out of control. We must stop this rogue agency’s dangerous abuses of power, not bankroll it.

No one should be able to control a woman’s decision on when or if to start a family - it's a fundamental right that must be protected. As we mark the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade, know that I'll never stop fighting for every woman's access to reproductive care.

Not only was DOGE illegally accessing your Social Security information, but it was also illegally offering to share it with third-party political groups working to overturn elections. This is a deep betrayal of the public trust and must be fully investigated. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/u...

Breaking into homes without warrants. Racial profiling. Arresting American citizens. ICE is no longer enforcing the law. They’re breaking it. I will not vote to give this goon squad more taxpayer money to terrorize our communities.

Another finding of war crimes & atrocities by the RSF in Sudan. No country should be fueling this murderous group. That's why we must pass my bill with @sarajacobs.house.gov to stop arm sales to the UAE so long as they keep arming the RSF. The people of Sudan have suffered for too long.
