The Trump Administration is destroying livelihoods of humans who have known no other country besides America as their own. Shameful.

This temporary pause proves what we already knew — DHS rushed this process without undertaking the proper legal reviews. The people of Roxbury don’t want this massive detention center in their backyard. I will continue pressing Sec. Mullin to abandon this project.

Honored to meet the crew of Artemis II and hear about their mission to the moon. It was especially exciting to speak with Reid Wiseman. Proud to see a Maryland native leading this era of space exploration.

Trump gutted the National Science Foundation’s workforce. Tried to cut its budget in half—twice. Now he's fired NSF’s board without any explanation. This is Trump's anti-science, anti-innovation agenda at work. We demand answers, now.

If FBI Director Patel wants to pass out branded bourbon or pop bottles in a locker room, he should stick to podcasting. This is a serious job & I don't believe the American people can count on him. Patel should never have been confirmed. He should resign or be fired.

Between rising gas prices, skyrocketing healthcare costs, and the Trump Tariff Tax, working Americans can't catch a break. Our communities are paying the price for Trump's war in Iran.

Budgets say a lot about priorities. Here is what Republicans are focused on: giving ICE and Border Patrol nearly $70 billion dollars and setting aside $1 billion for Trump's ballroom. And Oregon families? They're left out in the cold.

Wisconsin farmers were already feeling squeezed by Trump's trade war, now they are facing skyrocketing costs from Trump's war of choice in Iran. Farmers just want a fair shot to succeed. This war must end now.

The State of Washington is already seeing real-world impacts from sea-level rise, but Sen. Johnson of Wisconsin blocked a Senate resolution to simply recognize the problem. We cannot bury our heads in the sand with so much at risk.

Trump and RFK Jr.'s drastic cuts at the CDC have left us exposed. It took an entire month for the Administration to stand up a CDC-led team to respond to Hantavirus. That is unacceptable. And I intend to demand answers.

The Iran War. Tariff wars. Trump's policies and actions have pushed costs far higher than when he took office.

This ruling is significant. Federal law enforcement must be held to the same standards we expect from the best of our local police departments. DHS and ICE urgently need aggressive reforms to ensure their actions are grounded in law, respect due process, and restore public trust.

A federal judge in Colorado has confirmed what we’ve been warning about: under President Trump, ICE agents are not properly trained and are carrying out warrantless arrests in violation of the law — disregarding people's rights.

Trump has spent almost $30 billion on his war in Iran — the same amount that Senate Republicans said was too much to spend on lowering healthcare premiums for working Americans. They literally chose war in Iran over the American people.

If it wasn't clear before, it is now – President Trump doesn’t care that his unauthorized, reckless war is hurting American families.

IMO, another big fat Trumpian favor for the fossil fuel industry. Maybe paired with our excess profits clawback bill this makes sense, but not while they’re busy gorging themselves at the public’s expense.

The only person who wants this is Trump. If President Trump wants to honor America’s 250th, he should listen to what Americans are actually asking for: lower costs, affordable health care, and an end to the war of choice in Iran.

Trump’s Golden Dome is a $1.2 trillion golden sieve that won’t stop a nuclear attack, but will balloon the deficit and boost the bottom lines of billionaires. We must not be fooled by Trump’s fool’s gold.

My message to Pete Hegseth on Trump's $1.5 trillion war budget: “Every gun made... every rocket fired signifies... a theft from those who hunger and are not fed... This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the hopes of its children.”

President Trump promised Americans lower costs. Instead he’s making them foot the bill for a war no one asked for or approved.

This is a coordinated effort to dilute Black voting power and help Republicans avoid accountability at the ballot box. They know their agenda is deeply unpopular, so they’re trying to hold onto power by any means necessary.

When Trump meets with Xi, we can’t afford for him to sacrifice America’s national security in exchange for “solutions” to Trump's self-created crises. That’s why I led 16 bipartisan senators this month on a resolution as a reminder about the threat China poses to our security and prosperity.

And Republicans in Congress want to give it to him. If only they were that eager to help Americans afford their health care...
