If there is anything we have learned from America’s wars of regime change in Afghanistan and Iraq, it’s that the use of American military force can threaten the very people fighting for freedom—by associating them with foreign forces and interests.
- PW
At the same time, I’m deeply opposed to President Trump’s threats to use military force against Iran. Any decision to do so must be made by Congress, consistent with the Constitution and the War Powers Act.
- PW
They also illustrate the horrific risks of deadly force when autocratic governments with so much power consolidated in a single person refuse to share any of that power.
- PW
I’m outraged and disgusted by the shootings of thousands of unarmed protesters in Iran. These protests demonstrate that the brave Iranian people share the same desire for freedom and a better life as Americans and people everywhere.

These small businesses are more than storefronts. They’re employers, mentors, and sponsors of the local Little League team. We need to bring down costs so these businesses, and their employees, can focus on serving their communities, not just surviving.
- MK
In every Arizona town, there is a diner, a barbershop, or other small business fighting to keep their doors open as costs keep climbing. Rising rents, health care premiums that squeeze both owners and employees, and tariffs that drive up what they pay for supplies — they all add up.

I’ve called attention to right-wing efforts to capture the courts to do Trump’s political favors. But what happens when those courts don’t do as he wishes? I’m headed to the Senate floor for my 36th Scheme speech.

While the goons in this administration try to be cute about racist dog whistles, it's important to affirm that we reject their hateful vision of America. Diversity IS a strength. Out of many, we are one. THAT'S America. Greatest Democracy on Earth—if we can keep it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Every day the Epstein files remain hidden by President Trump and his pawns at the DOJ is another day the victims are denied justice. Trump is breaking the law to keep Epstein’s victims – and the public – in the dark. It’s shameful, and it’s illegal.

Trump's top economic advisor—who didn't even resign his job at the White House—thinks his boss's abusing the law to push out Jerome Powell and take over America's central bank is "just noise." What else would you expect from Trump's sock puppet?

As if driving up your grocery bill wasn’t enough, President Trump is threatening to withhold federal funding for the programs New Yorkers depend on. We will not stand by and let him make life harder for working Americans.

Imagine spending $125 million to try to look badass instead of using money to say, oh idk... Feed 55,000 hungry Veterans.

With only a day left of open enrollment, 1.4 million fewer Americans have signed up for ACA health plans compared to this time last year — over 1,500 of them being from Hawaii. Our neighbors are going without coverage because Trump refuses to address his health care cost crisis.

Republicans say they care about women. Then they raise health insurance costs, threaten hospitals, lie about safe medication, and fight for a national abortion ban. Restricting abortion has never been about protecting women. It’s about control. We must stop them. youtube.com/shorts/pZLag...

Today, I met with the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago to discuss federal reimbursement for MWRD’s work on the Thornton Reservoir. I will continue to push for this reimbursement and to offer the resources MWRD needs to keep our state’s water infrastructure up and running.

While Trump is focused on Iran, Greenland and Venezuela, his tariffs and de facto moratorium on renewable energy permits are raising the cost of housing, groceries, and energy.

Women deserve the right to make their own reproductive health care decisions. Mifepristone is a safe, effective, and FDA-approved medication. We’ll always fight for mifepristone to remain legal and accessible so women can get the care they need.

Outrageous. The Trump administration terminated $2 billion in mental health and addiction prevention grants. Communities nationwide will lose critical services for people in crisis. The Administration must reverse course, immediately – lives are on the line. www.npr.org/2026/01/14/n...

Trump & RFK Jr. just ripped away billions to help communities tackle the fentanyl crisis & get mental health care. So much for Make America Healthy Again & saving Americans from addiction. Republicans need to join me in demanding this gets reversed.

This is about scaring anyone who would report on things the Trump administration wants to keep secret. Intimidating a free press is a hallmark of authoritarians.

No, President Trump. Illegally canceling $2 billion in funding to deal with the mental health, addiction and opioid crises will not Make America Healthy Again. It will lead to more illnesses, more overdoses and more deaths. This blatantly unconstitutional act must be rescinded.

With the ACA tax credits gone, many Americans are seeing the soaring cost of health insurance and are choosing to opt out entirely. That harms our health care system. Democrats have been clear - Republicans in Congress and the White House must join us and act.

Trump said he'd bring down prices on day one. But now he's too busy passing tax breaks for billionaires, governing Venezuela, and plotting to invade Greenland. Working Americans are facing skyrocketing costs and Trump is making it worse — not better.

Erfan Soltani; remember that name. He is at risk of being executed by the Iranian regime. He didn’t engage in violence; he only sought the same freedoms any of our families would want. The Iranian regime has shown it will do anything to silence its people and keep power. 1/2

I just brought legislation to the Senate floor to restore ACA tax credits for 3 years. This legislation passed the House with bipartisan support. Senate Republicans said NO, ensuring health care costs continue to spike for millions of Americans. We are not going to stop fighting.

NEWS: @schumer.senate.gov just attempted to pass a bill that would extend the Affordable Care Act’s enhanced premium tax credits and prevent insurance prices from doubling for 22 million Americans. Even though this bill passed the House with 17 Republican votes, Senate Republicans still blocked it.

Delighted by the House’s bipartisan vote this week to renew and extend the African Growth and Opportunity Act. The Senate should quickly join them to strengthen the cornerstone of U.S.-Africa trade and reinvest in our partnerships on the continent.

We pledge an oath to a Constitution that says war can't be initiated without a vote of Congress. How can we allow this President—or any President—to single-handedly make decisions about deploying our military against other nations? It's reckless.

American companies like Nvidia should prioritize U.S. customers over Chinese tech giants - this policy was core to my GAIN AI Act with Senator Banks. If the Trump Admin implements this rule in good faith, it will not approve a single H200 license to China. I will be watching.

Don’t let them distract you. Trump promised lower costs – we just saw the highest grocery inflation in years. He doesn’t care about your costs.

There are allies on this list. Trump's obsession with playing the big, tough strongman is weakening our relationships abroad—and putting all Americans at risk.

Banning immigrants from 75 countries to the United States is unjustified, misguided, and just plain cruel. This reckless policy is not rooted in security—it is rooted in rejection and hate. @MarcoRubio must reverse course and resume visa processing.

The resignations of Joe Thompson and 5 other seasoned prosecutors from the U.S. Attorney's Office in MN mark a significant setback for our state and public safety. They took on fraud, shooting investigations & so much more. Justice must remain free from political interference.

Senate Republicans have once again moved to increase health care costs. Extending ACA tax credits will immediately help millions of Americans afford their coverage. Instead, Republicans would rather do nothing to lower your costs.

I’ve already heard from families across New Hampshire about how unaffordable health care has become since the expiration of the ACA tax credits. One of my constituents from New Boston, Darla, will see her family’s premiums spike by $15,000 a year. Watch below ⬇️
