Together with former Congresswoman Cheri Bustos and @duckworth.senate.gov, we secured a $23.7 million grant for East Moline’s downtown revitalization project, & today I attended its ribbon cutting. This initiative will breathe new life into this town, & I am pleased to see it near completion.

It was great to be down in Yuma County. Folks in Southern Arizona deserve leaders in the legislature who understand what working families are up against, and that’s why they’re supporting Emilia Cortez, Mariana Sandoval, and Brian Fernandez for LD23.

Billionaires like Elon Musk are spending gobs of money to elect candidates who can then turn around & funnel your taxpayer dollars to those same billionaires’ companies. @robertgarcia.house.gov & I have a bill to close this corrupt campaign cash-for-contracts loophole.

Republicans call Social Security a "Ponzi scheme" and talk about making cuts. Democrats have plans to scrap the cap and real fixes to make sure you get YOUR money. You get to choose what happens with your voice and vote on Election Day.

Congress made overwhelmingly clear that we must close sanctions loopholes to intensify pressure on Russia and end this war in Ukraine. Yet Trump continues to defy Congress and Americans' voice. His focus on appeasing Putin and enriching Russia further erodes trust with our allies and partners.

Assault weapon bans work, & states and localities should have the ability to enact them if they choose. I led my Democratic colleagues in submitting an amicus brief to the Supreme Court urging the justices to uphold the constitutionality of these responsible restrictions on military grade weaponry.

What we need here is for the “high ambition” countries to gather outside the UN process that gives polluter countries a veto. Together, they’re an economic force sufficient to change industry behavior. But they need a better venue.

We’re 8 months into Trump’s war that he started without any idea what his goal or plan was. Is life any better? No. Everything is more expensive and our country is less safe.

Health care open enrollment starts this Sunday, and more Delawareans are facing impossible choices as premiums climb. Republicans are driving up the cost of health care. We need to act to lower costs and reinstate the ACA tax credits before more families lose coverage or go without care.

Since Day 1, Trump has given the biggest polluters a free pass to poison our air and make Americans sick. His message is clear: Big Polluters profit. American families pay the price. Trump’s corruption costs.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang was reportedly “targeted” by a suspected Chinese spy whose Singapore-based firm bought billions in AI chips. Huang and NVIDIA’s board owe Congress answers. And we must pass bipartisan legislation to keep our advanced AI technology out of China’s hands.

Inflation is up. Margins are tighter. Prices are skyrocketing—and small business owners are on the front lines of Trump’s war on Main Street. Small businesses and workers should not have to bear the costs of Trump’s reckless economic policies.

President Trump promised to lower costs for Americans. Instead, life has become more and more expensive for families. Americans are falling further behind, and all the President cares about are vanity projects and price-raising, reckless trade wars. www.nhpr.org/business/202...

Officially 8 months into an illegal war the President said would only take a few weeks. 22 servicemembers killed. Hundreds more wounded. Munitions stockpile drained. Military bases damaged. Diplomatic footprint eroded. $47+ billion spent. Republican inaction is unforgivable.

Trump is about to throw millions of people off their Medicaid. He stripped away tax credits that helped millions afford their insurance. And his Supreme Court rolled back the clock on reproductive rights. His legacy is making care harder to afford and harder to access.

Trump’s war in Iran has cost taxpayers more than $47 billion. And that doesn’t even count what Americans are paying in higher prices at the pump, the grocery store, and on their utility bills. This war has been a disaster. It needs to end now. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/27/u...

Science and public health must come before politics. We need an investigation of this alarming decision, which appears to have little to no evidence or FDA experts behind it. Secretary Kennedy cannot be allowed to replace FDA's gold standard for safety and effectiveness with junk science.

Dolores Huerta dedicated her life to fighting for workers’ rights, equality and justice. Her legacy is a powerful reminder that we must never stop fighting for a more just future. I'm keeping her family, friends and all those whose lives she impacted close in my thoughts.
