My Finance Committee team immediately sought key documents from that investigation. What was the result, and why did the investigation end? We were notified that the DEA intended to release those documents to the Finance Committee. Then Deputy AG Todd Blanche intervened.

Recent reporting revealed that Epstein was one of several targets of a big drug trafficking investigation a decade ago. DEA has key info. Based on what we know, Epstein was likely pumping his victims, young women and girls, with incapacitating drugs to facilitate abuse.

President Trump’s war with Iran sent gas and diesel prices through the roof, all without any clear or coherent endgame. You are paying more at the pump because of the President’s foreign policy whims.

President Trump terminated more than $8 billion in grants for clean energy projects and grid upgrades, making you pay more for your power bills. We cannot cut off an affordable supply of new power as demand continues to rise.

Trump and his friends are in political trouble. Their response? Make it harder for you to vote and disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans. Trump said it out loud: If they pass the SAVE Act, Republicans will "never lose a race for 50 years.” Vote NO.

The “SAVE America Act” is an extreme Republican attempt to make it harder to vote. At a time when the prices of gas, groceries, and health care are going up, this is what they’re focused on?

In addition to the lives lost & the fact that it's making us less safe, the Iran war has cost $12 BILLION so far. With that we could provide: - Healthcare for 1.3 MILLION people, or - SNAP for 5.5 MILLION people, or - Universal pre-K for 900,000 kids How is this America First?

Meta wants to quietly roll out facial recognition technology in its smart glasses, hoping Americans won’t notice the potential risk to their privacy and civil rights. They’re mistaken. I have serious questions about the privacy risks and ethics of deploying this technology.

Last summer, Trump laid off 1,300 State Department workers, including many of the agency's oil and gas experts. Would Americans be paying less at the pump if those who were supposed to have oversight of the Strait of Hormuz were still on the payroll?
