Over 50 years ago, Congress passed the Endangered Species Act with a unanimous vote in the Senate. Senators banded together across party lines because doing our part to help species survive and reach recovery must be a bipartisan cause.

Trump is using your taxpayer money on ads to boost his own image. This administration is the epitome of waste, fraud, and abuse.

Why would ICE hide the medical reports of people who died in its custody? Because they show that many of those who died were medically neglected by the agency responsible for their care. These damning reports display the extent of ICE’s callous cruelty.

Trump fired Western Washington's U.S. attorney less than an hour after he was sworn in. Today a judge put him back. The president doesn't get to ignore the law to install his loyalists. This is a win for our democracy.

For the typical worker, more than half of every dollar of income growth is going right back out the door in debt payments. This new report from @tcfdotorg.bsky.social and @protectborrowers.bsky.social makes it clear: the economy is rigged against working families.

Yesterday, organizations across the country saw grant funding they use to provide housing for vulnerable communities expire. And HUD has done nothing to address it. This is hurting my constituents, and why I'm pressing HUD to right this wrong. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2026...

Elon Musk advising Trump on warfare is just handing over your taxpayer money to a trillionaire. Musk will push his AI and space technologies, make money from defense contracts, then pour that money into MAGA campaigns. Corruption in plain sight.

Doctors shouldn’t be punished for providing their patients with legal abortion care—and extremists in Louisiana have no business dictating what doctors in Seattle can and can't do. This was never about states' rights—it was ALWAYS about banning abortion nationwide.

Donald Trump has waged an all-out war on free and fair elections in the United States. He’s tried to disenfranchise millions of Americans, kill vote-by-mail, and make it harder for people to make their voices heard in their democracy. We have defeated him at every turn.

CEO compensation has increased 1,316% since 1978. And worker compensation? Just 28%. The system is rigged. We need to start taxing the rich so they pay their fair share.

Trump's traded Google, Meta, XAI, and Nvidia stock all year. Is it any surprise he doesn't want real AI guardrails? AI companies will not regulate themselves. This kind of inaction is what happens when a President is beholden to their own financial interests, not yours. 1/2

At the same time our country is grappling with a serious and horrific case of sexual assault at Cornell, Trump has watered down the very rules meant to protect student survivors of sexual violence. Enforcing Title IX is not political. It's common sense, and it is sorely needed in America today.

Remember: Trump is continuously stoking doubt in mail-in voting when he cast votes that way TWICE THIS YEAR ALONE. There’s no basis to his claims – he just wants to make it harder to vote.

Bill Pulte has abused his position to cry wolf on mortgage fraud against Trump's perceived enemies. Now, Pulte is getting rid of the law enforcement personnel who investigate criminal mortgage fraud, leaving the US housing market at risk. All to protect himself.

Americans pay into Social Security their entire working lives. They need to understand what benefits they’re entitled to so they can make informed decisions about retirement. I’m glad that my bipartisan bill to make that information clearer is going to the President's desk.

This just confirms what we already knew. Republicans' Private School Voucher Program helps wealthy families, private schools, and unaccountable SGOs, while governors who “opt in” have no control over the program, but all the responsibility for cleaning up the mess. Ridiculous.
