Among all Trump’s immigration cruelties, this one would be especially hideous. Afghan allies who protected our troops were promised safety if America left. Now America is abandoning them & breaking its promise. Pass our Afghan Adjustment Act immediately.

By going after the Southern Poverty Law Center, the Trump administration has dramatically escalated its attack on civil rights organizations and its defense of white supremacists. These intimidation tactics won't succeed.

We should all be concerned about what Trump is trying to do to the SPLC.

Trump sees a “threat” and goes after it with any lever of power he can grasp. It’s the same story time and time again. But the “threat” that Trump sees is an organization that’s been at the forefront of the fight for a more equal and just society.

Health care delayed is health care denied. Unconscionable & unacceptable, staffing cuts at the VA are resulting in reduced access to health care. Advocacy by @commondefense.bsky.social is elevating this cause & providing a voice to veterans across the country.

Donald Trump dodged the draft to fight in Vietnam but he's sure he would've done a better job. This kind of arrogance is exactly how America keeps getting stuck in long, bloody wars. We need real leadership and a plan and a goal to end this war in Iran, and he has none of it.

Federal Reserve Chair nominee Kevin Warsh proved his groveling subservience to Trump—parroting judicial nominees in evading questions on who won the 2020 elections & numerous other issues. Independence is indispensable in this job. His lack of it is disqualifying.

This is insane. All because Donald Trump launched a war with no plan and took away your healthcare. Americans deserve relief now. We’ve paid enough.

Instead of fighting to lower costs, Republicans are fighting to give ICE and Border Patrol another $70 billion. Which makes these agencies better funded than the FBI, DEA, ATF and all of the other federal law enforcement agencies — combined.

Kevin Warsh told me he was "independent" and a "tough guy." So I asked him to name just one aspect of President Trump's economic agenda that he disagrees with. You'll never believe what he said.

Let's be clear: The Trump Admin's vendetta against the SPLC is a sign of how impactful their work is. The SPLC has been at the forefront of exposing some of America's most notorious hate groups, like the KKK. The fact that the Trump Admin feels threatened by that speaks volumes.

Trump Admin’s short-sighted policies are driving up costs for energy, health care, & more. I just delivered nearly $27M in LIHEAP aid to help RIers afford their home energy bills & will continue to block Trump’s efforts to eliminate this critical program.

Vaccines save lives. Flu outbreaks threaten military readiness. But this Administration clearly doesn’t care. This Administration's junk science is jeopardizing the health of our troops and our national security. Shameful.

I asked X, Paramount, ABC, and Meta where their donations to Trump's Presidential Library went. None of them could give a clear answer. Tens of MILLIONS of dollars are missing. Why should Americans trust that this money isn’t going straight into Donald Trump’s pockets?

Rock Island Arsenal is a pillar of the region and a center of innovation. But the Army executed significant personnel changes at the Arsenal without consulting Congress. I joined @duckworth.senate.gov, Senator Grassley, & @ericsorensen.bsky.social to demand answers from the Army about this shift.

Republicans are working hard to cut another blank check to ICE and CBP with NO reforms. Americans want affordable health care and housing—NOT billions of their tax dollars funneled to rogue agencies. I voted NO.

Trump is considering a large bailout for a multibillionaire dictator while he cuts health care for 15 million Americans. This is insane. The working families of the United States need help, not one of the richest families in the world.

The President spent more on bombs in ONE WEEK of his war with Iran than we spend in an entire YEAR to help parents afford child care. Trump & RFK Jr. are asking to spend $500B more for war—but they won't increase funding for child care by a cent.

Lori Chavez-DeRemer was a scandal-ridden disgrace but more importantly she ended up being a stooge for Trump's anti-worker, pro-billionaire policies. America deserves leaders who stand up for working people and the middle-class.

It’s been weeks since the Senate came together across party lines to pass a bill to pay TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard. As the Trump Admin warns it won’t be able to pay TSA agents after this next paycheck, House Republicans continue to play politics and block the bipartisan deal to pay TSA.
