Last year, Pres. Trump raised your costs with his tariff taxes & massive health care cuts. This year, Pres. Trump is raising your costs with his illegal war. RIers have had enough. I’m fighting to stop this war, end the tariffs, & bring down your costs.

Mocking and trivializing faith is a failure to understand the values that matter to millions of Americans. Political attacks on the Pope only underscore the point. We’re a country built on religious freedom and mutual respect, and we should expect better from our leaders.

Congratulations to the Hungarian people on a smooth election process. The United States welcomes a closer relationship with our NATO ally and Hungary’s new government in standing up to Putin and helping Ukraine.

The threat to the Boundary Waters isn’t just about Minnesota — the legislative gymnastics being thrust upon us to allow copper-nickel mining in this watershed would mean no public lands are ever truly protected. We would be opening Pandora’s box… for what? The profits of a foreign mining company?

Senate Republicans cosigned Trump's unprecedented attacks on health care, driving up premiums and putting Americans' care in jeopardy. In November, we have a chance to flip the Senate blue and block Trump's attacks. Let's make it happen.

Prices are surging and it's thanks to two main things: 1. Trump starting a costly foreign war that no one asked for. 2. Trump's arbitrary & corrupt tariffs. He promised to lower inflation, to lower prices—he not only broke those promises, he's actively doing the OPPOSITE.

Hungary’s people just sent a resounding message to its leaders and democracies around the world in defeating wannabe dictator Victor Orbán. Authoritarian regimes breed corruption and lower the quality of life. And when people stand together, they can defeat the forces of dictatorship.

President Trump relented on his threat to wipe out Iranian civilization less than two hours before his deadline, after terrorizing the world for two days. If your head is spinning, you’re not alone. Check out our latest Substack on why we need to end this illegal war—now.

This is a DIRECT result of Republican inaction. I tried to push a vote for over a YEAR to extend the ACA credits that helped folks get the health care they needed—but Republicans wouldn't budge. I won't stop fighting until health care becomes affordable for families at home.

Families in Seattle and Spokane didn't vote for Trump's war of choice, but they're the ones paying for it every time they fill up their tank. And Republicans are blocking Democrats from putting an end to this war for good.
