America needs to be a leader in this moment. The U.S. needs to push for clear global standards on how AI models are developed, tested, and used.

I’m headed to the Senate Floor to ask my colleagues if we can all agree on this one, simple truth: climate change is making wildfires more frequent, more intense, and more destructive.

NEW: Reports show that just one Wisconsin billionaire has spent $13 million and counting to fund attack ads against me from my opponent's Super PAC. He is one of Donald Trump's biggest donors, and he knows Lisa Demuth will be a rubber stamp for Trump's agenda. I will fight for Minnesota.

ICE agents used excessive force to detain Luis Ochoa, an American citizen and teenager, on his way to enlist in the Marines. When his mom spoke out, they DEPORTED her. We cannot get numb to these sick fear tactics. Use your voice & your vote to force a CHANGE!

This administration has a clear pattern – skim funds, cut programs, and raise costs for everyday Americans… while they get everything they need and more.

Gas has reached $4.99 and diesel $6.59 in Maywood, NJ. We don't want a war, an arch, or a ballroom. We just want cheaper gas, groceries, and everyday goods. Trump's decisions have made our country too expensive.

It is long overdue that there is a timely and credible plan for a democratic election in Venezuela, one that allows the safe return and full participation by opposition leaders such as Maria Corina Machado.

Democracy goes through periods of expansion and periods of contraction. We are in a moment of contraction. But if we raise our voices together, we will emerge stronger from this moment.

There are reports that Chinese companies are providing information to Iran to target American service members and facilities. President Trump has a responsibility, as commander-in-chief, to raise this issue with China and establish clear red lines.

We are very lucky that this failure occurred during unmanned testing. But we cannot leave the safety of workers up to luck. These types of critical failures need to be addressed proactively and transparently with workers.

As Trump hunts for a headline and a photo-op with Xi Jinping today, he’s at risk of losing sight of what’s at stake for the American people. Trump needs to stop fawning over foreign strongmen and put his foot down. Standing up for the American people means standing up to Xi Jinping.

Clean energy like solar and wind produces the cheapest electricity on the market. It saves you money and fights the climate crisis. I'm introducing legislation with @vanhollen.senate.gov to speed up the development of green energy projects and achieve 100% renewable energy generation by 2046.

Diesel is now at a record $6.50 a gallon. Republicans are panicking and looking for any solution but the most obvious one: ending Trump's disastrous war in Iran.

We need smart, GLOBAL AI safety guardrails to protect our kids, jobs, and futures. Instead of focusing on lavish dinners, Trump needs to focus on negotiations. I'm calling on him to take this threat seriously and work out real AI safeguards with China.

Trump’s EPA let a major pesticide company pick what its regulations should be. Alarming proof that EPA is there to serve corporate interests, not protect the safety of Americans. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Trump and Washington Republicans refused to extend the Affordable Care Act’s enhanced premium tax credits, and now, millions of Americans can’t afford health insurance – including **medical professionals** themselves.

Insulin is life-saving medicine. No one should have to go without because they can’t afford it. In the Senate, I was one of the leaders of the fight to cap insulin at $35 a month for seniors on Medicare. And I have kept fighting to extend that cap to every American.

Ahead of this week’s meeting with China, President Trump has said he will consider allowing Chinese automakers to set up shop and build cars in the U.S. If that happens, it is the beginning of the end for U.S. auto manufacturing. That is not going to happen on my watch as a Michigan senator.

Trump says he opposes any effort to regulate AI, but it's clear we cannot wait. It would be malpractice against the American public if he fails to use this summit with Xi to negotiate mutual safeguards to protect us & the world from catastrophic harm. www.politico.com/news/2026/09...

Something is deeply wrong when Trump’s net worth is skyrocketing but families across the country can’t afford gas, groceries, and health care. Donald Trump’s culture of open corruption is leaving Americans out to dry while he and his friends get rich.

There is absolutely no place for calls for political violence in our state or our country. The recent dangerous rhetoric calling for political assassinations in NH makes everyone less safe, and undermines the principles of our democracy.

NIH funding doesn't belong to Donald Trump—it belongs to the patients and families waiting for the next medical breakthrough. We cannot let Trump politicize federal research grants and give right-wing extremists a veto over lifesaving work. SPEAK UP FOR SCIENCE.

The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act was a huge step in the right direction in addressing our nation’s housing crisis, but there's still more work to be done. I was excited to sit down with @politico.com to talk about ways we can keep working toward affordable housing for every American.

Trump banning CNN, MS Now, and Politico from the White House is an assault on the first amendment, plain and simple. Trump is so fragile, so thin-skinned, and so desperate that he can’t handle a little honest reporting. But there’s no hiding from a record as abysmal as his.

Great to meet with the Minnesota Transportation Alliance in DC this morning to discuss projects and priorities for strengthening our state’s transportation system. Investing in roads, bridges, and transit helps connect Minnesotans to work, school, and loved ones — and strengthens our economy.

The rising price of diesel doesn’t just affect truck drivers – it drives up the price of everything they’re transporting, including the food you buy in the grocery store. The Trump Admin needs to end its war in Iran and focus on bringing prices down.

What's Congress doing on AI right now? Nothing. Everyone's focused on the next election while this technology moves faster than any of us can predict. I’m pushing to get everyone at the table—experts, skeptics, regulators, and government—to rein in this technology. Not later, now.

This isn't about fraud. It's about kicking people off their health insurance which will drive up prices for everyone. The GOP health care plan is—and has always been—to destroy Obamacare.

Trump has spent years trying to punish anyone who challenges him: journalists, judges, law firms, universities, watchdogs, and now news organizations. Those are the actions of an authoritarian government. They have no place in the United States.
