Don't forget, Republicans SLASHED health care funding to afford tax breaks for the wealthiest people in our country. So while Americans go into debt to afford the life-saving care they need, Trump and his billionaire buddies are getting richer every day.

Thank you to the Planned Parenthood Alliance advocates from WA who visited me in DC. We talked about ways to ensure that Planned Parenthood can continue to provide care for the tens of thousands of Washingtonians who count on their services.

With tariffs and rising costs creating real uncertainty, it means something to see Kris’ Fresh Frybread still looking out for their neighbors. Local businesses like this, and the people behind them, are why I'm proud to call Arizona home. And the fry bread is worth every bite.

Trump is taking our national security hostage. All the consequences that come from undercutting our national security will fall on Trump and any Republicans who go along with his dangerous, partisan games.

In February, Renee King of Fund Black Founders shared her testimony on the hurdles many Black small business owners face. Last week, we met in Washington to uplift the SPARK Act, which would support the growth and creation of minority-owned small businesses nationwide.

That’s why I introduced the SPARK Act—to supercharge minority entrepreneurship nationwide. We must keep up the fight to ensure every entrepreneur can grow their business and thrive.

Donald Trump, the developer: Tear down a historic building for a project that the public didn’t want or approve. Triple the initial price tag. Make taxpayers foot the bill after promising they wouldn’t.

Access to child care is one of the biggest challenges facing rural Minnesota. Ottertail is showing what's possible when local leaders, small businesses, and families come together to find solutions. I'll keep working to support efforts like these across Minnesota. https://ow.ly/Hita50ZcNg0

The U.S. is not and was not founded as a Christian nation. As we approach the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding, I’m reminded that to defend our nation and our Constitution is to defend religious freedom.

The Trump administration's newest corruption scheme just dropped. Kash Patel may be using the FBI's budget as his personal slush fund to pay agents tens of thousands of dollars in exchange for carrying out illegal orders, or as hush money to keep quiet about what they witnessed.

If spending alone guaranteed security, America would be the safest nation on earth. But the Trump administration has proven that the military industrial complex is not creating real security. Instead of giving out blank checks to defense contractors, we must fund programs that support all Americans.

The Trump administration is funding destabilizing nuclear weapon programs—and their demand every year keeps getting higher. Americans need diplomacy, not destruction. We cannot allow $100 billion for Trump to spend on nuclear Armageddon. www.youtube.com/shorts/mCFBt...

The housing shortage is raising costs for renters and homebuyers and is nothing less than an existential threat to the American dream. That's why the ROAD to Housing bill is an important first step toward lowering housing costs by putting in place critical new reforms to build more housing.

How much does President Trump’s war in Iran cost? We owe it to the American people to be honest about what the actual cost of this war will be, and what we will have to sacrifice.

Wow. Iran gets sanctions relief, the release of frozen funds, the ability to export oil, and a $300 billion reconstruction fund. The U.S. gets a reiteration of the vague promise Iran won’t develop a nuke. Hard to imagine a more thorough capitulation.

Even Pentagon officials are wondering how they would spend Trump’s $1.5 trillion blank check. It’s way past due that funding goes to programs that make a sound difference in American’s lives—from food assistance, to education, to healthcare needs. www.youtube.com/shorts/gNbRO...

It is time Republicans stop treating matters of life or death like they are a game. Stop funding Trump’s illegal wars abroad. End the funding of the military occupations of American cities. Slash the Pentagon budget and stop lying to Americans about what their money is actually funding.
