Former Army Staff Sergeant Thomas Martin bravely and courageously served our nation during the Vietnam War, and he was injured while fighting to protect our freedom.

Trump has tried to pit Americans against one another to distract from the real fight: the fact that he and his billionaire buddies are rigging the system against workers. We must call it out at every turn.

By removing all members of the independent and bipartisan federal Election Assistance Commission, President Trump is making our elections less secure. Only Congress can eliminate the EAC -- but that hasn’t stopped the President from trying to fully disable it. (1/2)

Republicans chose tax breaks for billionaires over health care for working families. Costs are already soaring because of Trump’s illegal war with Iran; this is the last thing they need.

$1 billion of your taxpayer money went toward retrofitting a luxury jet Donald Trump received from Qatar— And it's still not even safe for him to fly home in. The American people paid seven figures for a flying national security risk. What a waste.

During a Senate hearing, I asked Todd Blanche if the Epstein investigation was ongoing. He acted like he didn’t know what I was talking about. I guess we know why.

I spent 10 years in county government seeing how important housing is. That’s why I’ve secured tens of millions for affordable Delaware homes and why I’m celebrating the largest housing bill in a generation becoming law tonight. Affording your rent or mortgage shouldn’t be out of reach.

Trump is wasting more than your tax dollars on his ballroom, gold plated statues, reflecting pools and get-rich quick schemes. He's wasting time he should be using to focus on lowering your costs.

Trump ousted every commissioner at the Election Assistance Commission. I chaired the committee that oversees this agency. It trains election officials and ensures our elections remain safe and secure. Gutting it before the midterms is reckless and dangerous. https://ow.ly/YVCf50ZmAqI

After losing in court, the Trump admin is now threatening election officials in Maryland and across the country to get access to voter rolls. This is yet another outrageous attempt to sow doubt in our democracy & intimidate states. We must hold the line. marylandmatters.org/2026/07/08/j...

Lineworkers work long hours in dangerous conditions to ensure we have safe, reliable electricity. They deserve to have the tools, training, and jobs to thrive. As the son of an IBEW lineman, I’m proud to join in introducing a resolution recognizing Journeyman Lineworkers Day.

President Trump said that he was going to lower prices on Day One. But this is one of the few times Congress has worked together to get something done to bring down prices on something as important as housing, and he’s fought it every step of the way.

Kash Patel’s FBI is reassigning hundreds of analysts to investigate kooky conspiracy theories about the 2020 election… when they could be focused on fighting serious crimes. How does that make us safer?

Trump spent BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars to kill projects that would’ve helped to lower energy costs. He promised to cut electricity bills in half. Instead, working families are paying record-high costs.

Once again, ICE shot and killed someone in broad daylight. This time, a loving father and husband, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. This latest tragedy is a reminder of why we’ve been fighting for real reforms of DHS and an end to this administration’s cruel and dangerous immigration agenda.

The people of Syria deserve a fighting chance after Assad’s brutal rule. @shaheen.senate.gov, Rep. Joe Wilson, and I called on the Trump Administration to remove this barrier to recovery while preserving targeted counterterrorism tools. This is good step forward.

Everything costs more, and working families are the ones paying the price. Instead of looking out for billionaires and special interests, this Administration should be focused on lowering costs and making life more affordable for the people who actually keep this country running.

More people continue to die at the hands of this ICE agency on a rampage. We need independent investigations and real accountability. Instead, Republicans rammed through tens of billions of dollars in more money for immigration enforcement without any reforms.

Let’s not forget the permits blockade, which delayed low-cost clean energy projects, forcing electric grids to revert to expensive fossil units. Costs went up for consumers, but those extra billions all went to Trump’s fossil fuel donors.

The greatest threat to America's elections is Donald Trump. Effectively shutting down the independent organization that certifies voting systems and supports our state election officials is not a subtle move. Every one of us has to use our voice and our vote to save democracy.

As Americans struggle with the cost of rent or mortgage payments, the president has a message for you: buzz off. He’s not interested. He made two billion off the presidency last year, and he couldn't care less about the hardships of ordinary people.

Trump will always put himself ahead of the American people. He is “protesting” the most significant housing bill in decades that would build more housing, lower costs, and stop private equity and Wall Street from buying up homes.

President Trump continues to spread lies and conspiracy theories about the November elections just as he did in 2020. This latest attack on a bipartisan election agency is more of the same effort to sow distrust in our voting system so he can contest the results if they are not to his liking.

First, Trump takes a massive bribe from Qatar in the form of a $400 million luxury jet. Then, despite clear security threats, he rushes it into use, skipping many of the usual defensive systems. So, not only is this plane an illegal bribe, but it risks our national security. Corrupt and dangerous.

Tonight, our bipartisan housing affordability bill will likely become law, with or without Trump’s signature. If he doesn’t want to put his name on the largest housing bill in a generation, that’s his choice. I’ll keep celebrating anything that will bring down housing costs for Delaware families.

Selling advanced AI chips to China will turbocharge its military capabilities and its bid for technological dominance. The Trump Administration is letting it happen, despite warnings from Republicans and Democrats. Congress needs to pass bipartisan export control legislation now.

The cost of chaos isn’t paid in Washington. It’s paid by Americans in the grocery store, at the gas pump, and anywhere you choose to spend your money. Trump needs to end his illegal war. Stop the illegal tariffs. And put lowering costs for working families at the top of the agenda.

Trump has raked in more than a BILLION DOLLARS from his crypto schemes. No president should be able to use their office to enrich themselves, which is why I wrote the End Crypto Corruption Act to stop these kinds of crypto grifts in their tracks.

Republicans kicked hundreds of thousands of families and kids off SNAP so they could give billionaires more tax breaks. That's the world Republicans want to make: working people struggle to get by while they and their friends get richer.
