HAPPENING NOW: Senate Republicans are trying to push through an extra $70 billion for ICE, which already has a record level of funding. This does nothing to lower costs for families. I’ll be opposing this bill.

50-49—By one vote the GOP chose to keep Trump’s insurrectionist slush fund dream alive After they fumbled around for hours, we needed one more Republican to muster the courage to end Trump’s taxpayer handout to cop beaters & felons As per usual, they were spineless www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

In case you didn't know, Republicans have put the entire Senate floor on hold so they can jam through a $70 BILLION check for ICE. After all the brutality we've seen, this is how they respond: A blank check and an absolute refusal of commonsense reforms. I'm voting NO.

I just offered an amendment to the Republican budget to finally reveal the truth about Trump’s cuts to health care. The American people deserve to know how many have lost coverage. Washington Republicans voted it down. Why are they so afraid of transparency?

This is a dangerous moment for our republic. Tonight, I’m forcing a vote to block Trump’s slush fund, championed by Todd Blanche, from sending taxpayer dollars to people convicted of attacking cops on January 6th.

Republicans want billions of dollars for ICE funding, slush funds, and billionaire giveaways. When it comes to lowering health care costs or helping families afford groceries, suddenly there's nothing left. That's the choice they're making.

Is the White House running a pay-to-play loyalty program for wealthy donors? More than HALF of the known companies bankrolling Trump's ballroom have won new or expanded federal contracts. I have a bill to stop this.

What I saw inside Delaney Hall was unjust. It was cruel. That’s why I’m fighting to get an audit done immediately and improve conditions. No more taxpayer dollars to fund this lawlessness.

Republicans should work with Democrats to ban Trump's criminal slush fund. In law. Today. Why won't they? Because the President has explicitly said he LOVES it—and Republicans are more than willing to cut checks to violent insurrectionists with YOUR tax dollars.

While your electricity bills are going up and taking cash out of your budget, Trump is stealing out of our national wallet—using taxpayer dollars to pay for polluting, expensive, and unnecessary coal plants. We need to save Americans’ money, not give it to Trump’s fossil donors.

Not only are Senate Republicans trying to give BILLIONS of more dollars to ICE for mass deportations… They just tried squeezing in their SAVE America Act too. Luckily, Democrats defeated it.

Beyond grateful that we were able to secure Andrea’s release. Her ovarian cyst could have lifesaving complications if left untreated, and she was in incredible pain. Now she’ll be able to get the lifesaving medical care she should have been able to receive back in February.

ICE agents shouldn't be kicking down doors without a warrant, wearing masks, or operating by rules that would never fly for local police. But instead of accepting these basic reforms, Republicans are trying to push through another $72 billion tonight for Trump’s mass deportation agenda.

Pennsylvania guarantees permit refunds if the state misses its deadline. Arizona requires it by statute. Connecticut just signed it into law in January. When I’m Governor, we’ll get this done for Minnesotans.

The cost of groceries rose faster last month than at any other time in the past four years—all while personal savings plummeted. More loans won’t fix Trump’s affordability crisis or deliver real relief to American families. Ending Trump’s reckless economic policies will.

Back in March, Rubio said this war would end in "weeks, not months." Yet, here we are, 4 months later. Hundreds of troops injured or killed. Billions of dollars set on fire for a war Americans do NOT support.

Blanche acts as Trump’s personal attorney and political henchman, but the Attorney General’s client is supposed to be the American people. He will never understand that.

Trump intends to damage the rule of law, to protect his massive corruption, and Blanche is his hatchet man.

... pursuing illegal U.S. Attorney appointments, having courts regularly throw out indictments and grand juries return "no bills," and costing the Department its customary "presumption of regularity." He is a walking disgrace.

Unrepentant & unreformed ICE & DHS don’t need another $62 billion. But Americans need more affordable homes. I offered an amendment that would build & rehab 2.1 million homes nationwide instead of constructing more ICE detention warehouses in communities that don’t want them. Republicans refused

Housing costs are a significant burden for millions of families. Senate Democrats just put forward a proposal that would fund the largest federal grant program to create more affordable housing. Republicans voted it down.

This amendment was blocked. Instead of helping Americans grapple with sky-high housing costs, Republicans want to funnel billions of taxpayer dollars to immigration agencies—that are already funded at historic levels—to send more masked ICE agents to terrorize our communities.

Within the last year, Republicans reduced Medicaid funding by nearly $1 TRILLION, nutritional assistance grants by almost $190 BILLION, and diverted $500 BILLION from public schools. Over $1,700,000,000,000 in cuts. And apparently, for Republicans, that $1.7 trillion isn't enough.

Our tax code should reflect our values. After 15 years of Republican tax cuts for the wealthy, it no longer does, and ordinary Americans are struggling. It's time for you to pay less and the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share again.

Buying a home is the cornerstone of the American dream, but for many Americans, it’s out of reach. Senate Democrats supported @reed.senate.gov amendment to the Republican budget bill to make affordable housing more accessible, but Senate Republicans blocked it.

The public clearly opposes this war because it is driving up costs at the gas pump, the grocery store, and in housing and energy prices. That has real ramifications. People are unhappy because they thought this president was running to address affordability.

Republicans voted down an amendment to block Trump's $1.8 BILLION slush fund for violent insurrectionists. They're choosing to bend the knee to this corrupt President who wants to pay off cop beaters—all while Trump & Republicans won't spend a cent to lower health care costs.

ICE and CBP already have enough money for the next three years. They don't need another $62 billion. So Democrats are forcing a vote on a legislation to reinvest that money in building over 2 million units of affordable housing.

As the price of groceries, gas, and housing balloons, a gilded White House ballroom is the last thing your taxes should be spent on. But Senate Republicans just voted down an amendment that would ensure this ballroom does not receive one cent of federal funding without congressional approval.

But we know that Trump will do anything he can to get his way – so Senate Democrats forced a vote today to make sure he can NEVER use taxpayer money for his ballroom. Republicans refused to join us and instead blocked our efforts.
- JR
In the first version of Senate Republicans’ budget bill, they tried to give Trump $1 billion in taxpayer dollars for his ballroom. Democrats fought back and forced Republicans to strip out this wasteful spending.
