Trump’s illegal war and reckless brinkmanship are driving up the cost of doing business for the people who feed all of us. Diesel and fertilizer prices need to come down now. That means ending the Iran war NOW to give our farmers a break.

Children and teenagers, parents and teachers—these are the American citizens that ICE has detained under Trump. Their cruel mass deportation campaign makes all of us less safe and threatens the very freedoms our nation was founded on.

RFK Jr. is a hazard to the health of the American people. He ought to resign. And if he doesn't resign, the president should fire him.

Americans' health and well-being must come before the president’s political agenda. That means taxpayer funds should be spent on what experts think is the best bet for medical breakthroughs, not spent on pet projects for Trump and his loyalists. I will keep fighting these threats to your healthcare.

From fair wages to protecting workers, I've never been afraid to take on tough fights for Minnesotans. That's why I'm honored to have the support of the Minnesota Teamsters – they know that Minnesotans need a Governor who will take on the powerful and stand up for the people of our state.

Last week, Azerbaijani anti-corruption advocate Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu was finally allowed to get the medical care he desperately needs & has been denied for years. Meanwhile, the bogus charges against him remain. The Aliyev govt must immediately & unconditionally drop all charges.

Between the war in Iran, wasting taxpayer dollars, reckless firings of qualified military leaders, dismissing servicemembers’ mistreatment, and the bombing of a girls' school, it's clear Pete Hegseth is not fit for the office he holds. It's time for him to resign.

Honored to accept the inaugural Lifetime Achievement Award from the FBA Chicago Chapter. I have taken the responsibility of recommending judicial nominees to the President very seriously, and I’m proud that the federal bench in Illinois today is more diverse and highly qualified than ever.

I am downright sick of this President attacking the millions of patriotic Americans who live in "blue" states and cities. We are ALL Americans and this type of rhetoric is divisive and sickening. What a disgrace.

$1,749 → $2,297 Heating oil bills are estimated to spike over $500 for New England families this winter. A huge reason why? Trump’s Iran war increased prices for heating oil. End the war. Lower costs.

Donald Trump’s war in Iran is spiking gas costs for the school buses that get your kids to school every day. If school districts have to spend more money on gas, there’s less money left to spend on students. To Trump, this is a “small price to pay.”

Trump thinks he can bribe the American people, but voters have been burned by his failed promises too many times. They're tired of his corruption and the Republicans in Congress who refuse to stop him. It's time to send them all packing this November.

Declaring war on Chicago wasn't normal. Inciting treason and encouraging an active adversary to bomb Southern California isn't normal. Who's next? A President hellbent on going after "the enemy within" is a threat to us all.

Remember – this was a war of choice. Every extra dollar at the pump, on groceries, and on everything else you buy was a policy choice that didn’t have to happen.

This was historic corruption, and the President announcing he will illegally coordinate with a Super PAC won't cut it. Trump MUST refund the American people for these taxpayer-funded ads. You can bet a Senate Democratic majority will investigate and deliver accountability.

First, Trump steals money from taxpayers to fund his propaganda. Then, he illegally coordinates with a Super PAC to keep the propaganda going. And to top it all off, he won’t reimburse taxpayers for the money he stole. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

MAGA Republicans kicked 34,000 Coloradans off SNAP, including 13,000 children. It’s cruel. It’s inhumane. And it never should’ve happened. We’re fighting to restore food assistance for these Coloradans and the over 5 million Americans who were left behind by MAGA.

When towns and cities spend more on gas for garbage trucks, fire trucks, and snowplows, they have to make cuts elsewhere. Wisconsinites want their tax dollars going to public safety, schools, and parks – not higher gas prices from Trump’s war in Iran. www.wpr.org/news/wiscons...

This means a handful of Trump’s billionaire buddies will control huge parts of the media. The next president needs to break up all the mergers approved under this administration. Big business has to understand there are consequences when they team up with corrupt government.

Trump promised to cut your energy prices in half within 12 months. Today, a gallon of regular in Illinois costs $4.66. One year ago, it cost $3.31. That’s $20 more to fill a 15-gallon tank. Trump broke his promise to cut costs and avoid war. Now you’re stuck holding the bill.

It's complete! Ninth time’s a charm! That’s how many times we tried to get this funding for a rail underpass in Moorhead from the feds. The last time I said “please put us out of our misery if you don’t like this project but if you do, fund it.” And they did.

With affordable, high-quality early education out of reach for too many, we should be strengthening Head Start. Instead, the Trump Administration is weakening standards and jeopardizing services at Head Start that have successfully served children and families for over 50 years.

What a sad state of affairs when a president can joke about letting Iran “take out” Los Angeles or San Diego and it barely makes news. Can you imagine the outrage if any other president said that? America – we can do better than this.

Donald Trump’s ridiculous, corrupt propaganda ads are straight out of Putin and Kim Jong Un’s playbook. As he guts Medicaid, SNAP, and cancer research funding, he somehow finds millions of taxpayer dollars to air blatantly political ads.

Trump may be backing down, but not before blowing more than $10 million in taxpayer funds on political ads. Every day, this president finds a new way to waste Americans’ money while making life more expensive for working families.

The share of production spending by major U.S. studios on movies filmed in the United States has declined from 74% to 42% over the past quarter century. This is why Congress needs to pass my bipartisan film tax incentive proposal with Sen. Tim Scott. We need to act now before it's too late.

In June, Belgium’s diamond industry gifted Trump an 18-karat gold ring encrusted with 321 diamonds and 75 gemstones. A month later, European diamonds got an exemption from Trump’s tariffs. We don’t know where the ring is today. Where did it go? Did Trump keep it for himself?

The President says the Iran war will end "very soon." How many times have we heard that promise? And if it means attacks on two major American cities in the process, he is not troubled by the cost.
