Secretary Noem has dodged testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee for months. It’s caused frustration... and not just from Democrats. It’s time for Judiciary Republicans to work with us—and issue a bipartisan subpoena.
- RD
I applaud my five Republican colleagues for joining every Senate Democrat to advance this resolution. While Nicolás Maduro was a brutal dictator, Trump’s actions risk sparking a long-term conflict that jeopardizes American lives. The American people cannot be kept in the dark.

Today, I voted for a bipartisan war powers resolution that would block the use of the U.S. Armed Forces to engage in hostilities within or against Venezuela unless authorized by Congress. (1/2)
- AK
I just voted for the bipartisan bill to prevent President Trump from continuing his war in Venezuela without authorization from Congress. In an unexpected move 5 Republicans joined us to move this forward. We need to lower costs in America, not try to “run” another country.
- LR
The Constitution explicitly gives Congress the power to declare war for a reason, that's why I voted 'yes' on today's war powers resolution. It's time my colleagues started taking this president at his word and acting before he recklessly drags us into war.

The video of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis is incredibly disturbing. A full and impartial investigation is urgently needed. My thoughts are with Renee Good's family. Our government should not be deploying ICE in ways that make our neighborhoods and communities less safe.

Five Republicans joined with Senate Democrats today to take a step forward in checking President Trump's unlawful actions in Venezuela - but we need everyone to stand up and use your voice to demand the Senate assert our Constitutional authority over the use of military force.

Today we send a powerful message to the Trump administration: no more endless wars.

JUST NOW: The Senate advanced @kaine.senate.gov and my bipartisan war powers resolution, which would block the Trump administration’s use of the U.S. armed forces to engage in hostilities within or against Venezuela unless authorized by Congress.

Last year, Kristi Noem slowed down FEMA response times for Americans dealing with weather catastrophes. Now, reports say she wants to eliminate more than 1,000 of the FEMA employees who help respond and prepare for disasters. It’s unbelievably dangerous.

HUGE – a few Republicans finally found their spine and voted to take the first step towards reining in Trump’s chaos in Venezuela! America owes a debt of gratitude to @kaine.senate.gov, who has fought to rein in presidential overreach and force abroad for years. His moral clarity makes us stronger.

This administration has been very open about the fact that they now believe they own Venezuela.

Federal immigration agents’ use of force shocks the conscience. A federal judge said that in November. Now, their continued use of excessive force has led to another shooting and another death.
- AK
The Senate just passed a bipartisan vote signaling deep concern about Trump’s continued military actions regarding Venezuela. Americans don’t want us to “run” Venezuela and they deserve to have their voices heard.

I’m joining @markey.senate.gov's bill to block President Trump’s Executive Order, which denies states the ability to regulate artificial intelligence.

BREAKING: The Senate just PASSED a bill to prevent war with Venezuela. Don't let anyone tell you this is just symbolic. We will keep pushing until it passes the House, and then we push to pass it with a veto-proof majority. No war. No occupation.

Whether helping pass the Affordable Care Act or championing the Americans with Disabilities Act, @hoyer.house.gov has always fought to provide all Americans with the dignity they deserve. I am honored to call Steny a friend, and I wish him all the best in his retirement.

Now this Administration is shooting unarmed mothers in their cars? Their cruelty knows no bounds. We need a full investigation immediately, and based on what I saw in the video — somebody must be brought to justice.
- RB
Sickening brutality & fatalities will continue without independent scrutiny & Congressional action & reform. Internal investigation alone is blatantly inadequate.
- RB
My PSI investigation of ICE agent brutal assaults & detention of hundreds of U.S. citizens shows a pattern of abuse & excess that must be stopped. The Minneapolis tragedy was predictable & preventable.
- RB
The investigation of this heartbreaking ICE killing must be immediate & independent, not depending solely on federal agents. Credibility is critical. Beyond individual accountability, there must be thorough scrutiny of ICE practices & tactics.

To summarize the legacy of accomplishments that my friend Congressman Steny Hoyer has achieved would require an entire novel — his impact on the people of Maryland’s fifth district — and people across this nation — over his storied career is as profound as it is enduring.

Donald Trump brought some of the worst, most unprofessional, and most poorly trained federal law enforcement officers and agents into Illinois. Now he’s doing it in Minnesota. And another family is grieving.

I am sending my prayers and deepest condolences to the family and colleagues of Uxbridge Police Officer Stephen LaPorta, who was tragically killed while responding to a vehicle crash yesterday morning. Officer LaPorta’s sacrifice and his legacy of service in his community will not be forgotten.

I know a company that was going to expand manufacturing in the U.S. but had to reconsider because of tariffs on manufacturing equipment it needed.

Every single Senator and every single House member voted for our Arkansas Valley Conduit bill. But then Trump vetoed it. Trump is leaving real people out to dry for his own political grievances and making our rural communities pay the price.

Guess Trump didn't know about the housing affordability crisis when his party killed our bipartisan bill in December that would have helped lower Americans' housing costs.

The Trump Administration is planning to gut emergency workers and disaster preparation efforts. As we mark one year since some of California’s worst fires, this will make our communities less safe and more prone to repeat disasters.

I’ve said it time and time again. The Trump Administration’s militarized immigration raids are dangerous political theater. Now, it’s led to another fatal shooting, this time of a woman in Minneapolis.

Today, we remember those who we lost, and we honor their memory by continuing the work to reduce gun violence so more families don’t have to experience the same pain we did on January 8th, 2011.

In the years since, I've watched Gabby fight her way back with a strength that inspires me every day. Her courage, and the courage of the other survivors, reminds us why we can’t accept gun violence in our everyday lives.

Fifteen years ago today, a gunman opened fire while my wife Gabby Giffords met with constituents outside a Tucson grocery store. Six people were killed. Thirteen others were injured – including Gabby. That day changed everything for my family and our community.

“When a president puts political vendettas ahead of clean water for schools, hospitals, and ranchers, he isn’t ‘shaking up’ Washington. He is undermining the people he swore to serve. And it’s working people and rural communities that pay the price.” Read more from @senatorhick.govpeeps.us and me.

American servicemembers and communities deserve access to safe drinking water, free of toxic PFAS chemicals. I secured language in the national defense bill to help hold Trump's Defense Department accountable for PFAS contamination at military installations all across the country.

On the one-year anniversary of the Palisades and Eaton wildfires, I joined @governor.ca.gov and @padilla.senate.gov to hear from fire survivors about their efforts to recover & rebuild. There is so much more that needs to be done to help LA communities come back from these devastating fires.

The shooting in Minneapolis today by an ICE agent is deeply disturbing. We cannot have federal agents killing people in our neighborhoods. There must be a full investigation and accountability.

The Trump Admin continues to lie about ICE's killing of a 37-year-old mom — claiming she engaged in ‘domestic terrorism.” They have given ICE a massive budget and allowed them to act with impunity. I cannot & will NOT support any funding for Trump’s ICE’s operations.

Congressional Republicans are preventing the oversight of ICE actions across the country. We must stop the recklessness that put lives at-risk.

I'm deeply disturbed by the shooting in Minneapolis today. Immigration enforcement should be focused on going after violent criminals to make our communities safer, not hindering local law enforcement and sowing chaos. There must be a full investigation into what happened.
