The Fargo-Moorhead diversion project is critical to protecting homes and businesses from flooding. It was great to zoom in to join leaders to celebrate this step forward — I worked across the aisle with Sen. Hoeven to secure this funding and keep this effort moving. www.inforum.com/news/moorhea...

It was great visiting with senior leadership at Nellis Air Force Base last week. While I was there, I toured the Base Hospital’s Trauma Center, operational units, and thanked our Airmen for their service to our country.

It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat, a Republican, or where you live. We're all fed up with Trump's war in Iran and his Trump Tariff Tax. This November, we're electing leaders who will stand up against Trump's recklessness, bring down the price of groceries and gas, and put America first.

Tiffany Hudson is a working single mom in Phoenix. She needs SNAP benefits to feed her son, but Trump is cutting her off in order to give tax cuts to billionaires. Billionaires first, working American families last. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

RFK Jr. is not fit to lead during a public health crisis. He gutted the very teams that respond to threats like Hantavirus, and left the CDC leaderless. Americans deserve answers from HHS and the Secretary immediately.

Costs are going up, and that means small businesses are hurting and customers are feeling the impact. Ordinary Americans are losing tons of money they worked hard for because of Trump’s decisions. We need leadership that puts Americans first.

Trump keeps claiming that the conflict in Iran is almost over… in reality, the Strait remains closed, gas prices are up, and we’re still deep in this forever war. The man that ran on lowering costs and ending wars is 0/2.

Another extension, but this shouldn't be complicated. Mifepristone is safe and effective, and women should be able to get abortion medication through the mail or telehealth if they need. Extremist judges shouldn't get to decide how women get health care.

Shared this thread with a friend in the investment space (no greenie!), and here’s what he had to say: “In ten years, no one will buy a house without thinking about climate change-induced risks and costs … It is a future that is rapidly coming into focus.” Exactly.

It's this simple: Government officials shouldn't be making rules that govern businesses that they or their families OWN. But time and again Trump admin officials are caught doing that. More corruption from the most corrupt admin in history.

Severance almost didn't become a TV show. If Paramount buys Warner Brothers, who knows what other shows won't get made at all. We have to put a stop to this merger.

MAGA’s One Big Ugly Betrayal Bill left 15 million Americans at-risk of losing their health care, including 250K Coloradans. It’s unacceptable. When we sat down for a roundtable last month with Healthier Colorado, we heard about the on-the-ground reality for health care providers and patients.

They’re used to false facts. How about Citizens United’s “no need to worry about corruption, all the political money we just released is going to be transparent: you’ll know who the donors are”?

How about instead of a website that pushes dangerous crisis pregnancy centers that lie about abortion care, the federal government just invest in health care, child care, paid leave, and other things that would actually help working moms?

It's the same story every day with Trump in charge: higher prices at the grocery store, higher prices at the gas pump, higher healthcare premiums. Americans are paying more for just about everything because of Trump.

40 million Americans have diabetes, and we must do more to ensure that everyone can afford the lifesaving medication they need. By capping monthly out-of-pocket insulin costs at $35, my bipartisan INSULIN Act would do just that.

Trump's regime is calling this the "Golden Age" for farmers. Higher fertilizer costs = lower harvest rates Low harvest rates = less food Less food = higher costs for Americans There is nothing "golden" about high costs and U.S. farmers' inability to grow food for our country.

When Trump meets with Xi, we can’t afford for him to give up real concessions in exchange for “solutions” to Trump's self-created crises. That’s why I led 16 bipartisan senators this month in introducing a resolution to remind people of the threat China poses to our security and prosperity.

Donald Trump had another meltdown about me yesterday. Why? His war is failing. His tariffs have led to skyrocketing prices. His poll numbers are plummeting. We will not let him intimidate voters at the polls in November. His incoherent rants do not phase us.

Free speech is free speech — you don't get to pick and choose. If you are mad about Trump's efforts to muzzle Jimmy Kimmel, you should be equally angry about his efforts to punish students who speak out against U.S. complicity in the horrors in Gaza.

I have been sounding the alarm about this for months. We are not prepared to deal with Hantavirus because of Trump and RFK Jr.'s cuts to the CDC. Sec. Kennedy must immediately explain his plan keep Americans safe from this disease.
