Kash Patel swore to uphold the Constitution. But the only thing he's upheld is his dedication to turning a blind eye to this regime's rampant corruption.

Last week in Richmond, @mcclellan.house.gov , @dannyavula.bsky.social, Virginia Health and Human Resources, local leaders, and I discussed how rising costs of gas, groceries, housing, and child care are squeezing families. We're going to keep fighting to lower costs.

Later today, the Senate Agriculture Committee will again vote on a Farm Bill that falls short for California families. We need a bipartisan farm bill. Badly. But this isn’t bipartisan and doesn’t meet the needs of our people.

BREAKING: Today, I'm introducing a bill to BAN corporate takeovers of your doctor's office. Doctors should be able to care for their patients without greedy private equity investors getting in the way. Let's get this done.

Costs are up. Chaos is up. Corruption is up. Minnesotans are fed up with rising health care costs, gas prices, and tariffs that make everything more expensive. We need a Governor who will put Minnesota first – not be a rubber stamp for Donald Trump.

Our government is at its best when our local, state, and federal officials are working together. Yesterday, I hosted the United Counties Council of Illinois for a conversation about how our federal government can support counties in achieving our shared goals.

Trump already enacted the largest Medicaid cut in history. Now hospitals warn his latest proposed rules could cut hundreds of billions more. Whether you rely on Medicaid or not, a closed hospital can’t care for anyone.

Trump’s war with Iran continues to raise fuel costs. Michiganders did not want this war to begin with, and they are continuing to shoulder the burden. www.detroitnews.com/story/news/l...

Donald Trump and Republicans passed massive tax breaks for giant AI companies that don't need the extra help. And they cut health care for regular Americans. That is the exact opposite of what Congress should be doing.

I joined @aarp.org New Jersey for a telephone town hall to talk all things healthcare, caregiving, and aging with dignity. As a father and a caregiver, these issues are close to my heart. It's important to hear your stories and to carry them with me in all I do as your U.S. Senator.

Trump is sending $2.8 BILLION of bombs paid for by YOU, the American taxpayer, to a govt led by a wanted war criminal. All while Netanyahu keeps bombing Gaza & blocks justice for Americans killed on his watch. How is this America First? We will work to stop it.

Thousand-year-old glaciers are melting away in the Himalayas. Hundred-year storms are becoming routine. The realities of climate change are undeniable. When will Congress finally acknowledge the devastation and do something about it?

This is very important news especially as ballots start to go out in Michigan: The Supreme Court has denied President Trump’s effort to use the Postal Service to restrict who gets to vote by mail. I had an interesting exchange with the Postmaster General on this a few weeks ago.

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president we've ever had, and it's not even close.

This is why I introduced a bill to ban stock trading across all three branches of government. No one should get a free pass when they’ve been trusted to work in the best interest of the people they serve. Especially not the President.

Nonpartisan budget experts confirm: the cost of Trump’s illegal war is nearly $40 billion — and that comes straight out of taxpayer’s pockets. This war, that no American voted for, continues to take a toll, both on our servicemembers and our wallet.

A strong bipartisan group of Senators voted to advance discussion of college sports reforms. With the drag on higher education that athletic departments are causing, this discussion can't happen soon enough. Women's and Olympic sports need immediate shoring up. www.espn.com/college-spor...

Who pays for the wedding — the bride’s family or the groom’s? Well, if you’re Donald Trump Jr., you can get a Russian oligarch with a net worth of $300 million and in Putin’s inner circle to pay for a private island in the Bahamas, with lavish fireworks displays and more.

Republicans kicked 5 million Americans—including 1.5 million KIDS—off food assistance to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. I'll be fighting tooth and nail to repeal Trump's cuts. Nutrition assistance is an investment, not charity.

Today I voted against the CLARITY Act because it undermines Tribal sovereignty and threatens the revenues Indian Country depends on. I do not oppose digital market structure legislation, but any viable legislation absolutely must include commonsense protections for state and Tribal gaming rights.

After six months of an illegal and unnecessary war with Iran, Trump’s war machine has spent more than $38 Billion. If we include increased fuel costs to Americans, the cost is more than $145 Billion and growing. American families don’t need to pay for this disaster. Enough. End the war now.

These big AI companies should be held civilly and/or criminally liable and prosecuted when their models hurt people. They don’t get a free pass just because they’ve now decided to admit to the dangers of what they’ve created.

Private equity executives are admitting their funds will "fall short on promises." But as wealthy investors run for the exits, the Trump Administration is trying to stuff private equity into YOUR 401(k). The system is rigged and Trump is making it worse.

I'm holding the first-ever hearing on menopause. Menopause is one of the most under-researched, undertreated, & underdiagnosed fields of healthcare. Congress has been around for more than 230 years. It's well past time Congress acknowledges basic healthcare for tens of millions of Americans.
