Americans are scrambling to put food on the table, we’re at war, and Nevadans are paying more at the gas pump. Meanwhile, Trump’s ranting about his $400 million ballroom.

Trump’s own director of the National Counterterrorism Center is jumping ship because he cannot support the U.S.’s military actions in Iran. Democrats and some Republicans agree that there was no imminent threat to the U.S. when Trump entered into this war of choice.

The true financial cost of the Iran War is hard to quantify, but the billions we’ve already spent could’ve been used on hospitals and health care, or lowering other costs for Americans. Not to mention the increased price at the pump.

I didn’t support Kent’s nomination. Yet I’m glad he is willing to acknowledge the truth – there was NO imminent threat to the United States, and this war was a terrible idea. Even Trump’s greatest MAGA advocates can see this war is stupid, costly, and deadly. When will Trump?

The spiritual rot of this White House is eating at the core of our nation's highest values. They are sending Americans to fight and die overseas while kicking people off of health care here at home.

When it comes to Cuba, my constituents aren't asking for an incursion into yet another country. What I hear them saying is that they are worried about the high price of gas, of groceries, of housing and of child care. They want action to lower costs. Not another forever war.

Trump is spending BILLIONS of your taxpayer dollars on a war with Iran that has no clear directive and no endgame.

Trump promised to lower costs, but instead he slammed working families with the Trump Tariff Tax and started bombing Iran. We've had enough. I'm fighting to deliver a Democratic majority so we can bring down prices and end Trump's chaos. Let's get it done.

One Illinois data center could consume as much power as 30% of all the households in our state. We must have an honest analysis of the electricity—and water—needs of these data centers as we consider their construction.

If you're waiting in a TSA line, you can thank Senate Republicans for rejecting Democrats' proposal to fund TSA. We can support TSA workers while we hold this administration accountable. Last week, Republicans chose Trump over you.

A court just blocked a major part of RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine agenda. Good. Vaccines save lives. Policy must be guided by science—not conspiracy theories and dangerous misinformation. Today’s ruling is a victory for science, for parents, and for kids across America.

Trump's war with Iran shut off access to about 20% of the world's oil supply and gas prices are skyrocketing. I introduced a bill to suspend the federal gas tax because working Americans shouldn't pay more for Trump's bad decisions.

Senate Republicans are holding TSA, FEMA, and Coast Guard funding hostage to give more money to agencies that have killed Americans on our streets. We can fund TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard without funding ICE and CBP. Republicans just refuse to.

RFK Jr’s changes to our nation’s childhood vaccine schedule fly in the face of science and threaten the lives of kids nationwide. This ruling offers a temporary reprieve from the madness, but I’m afraid the damage has already been done.

Trump and his FCC want to charge media outlets with treason if they don’t report his illegal war exactly the way he wants them to. Censoring the free press is straight out of the authoritarian playbook.

RFK Jr.’s reckless anti-science crusade is turning deadly in the Commonwealth and across the country. He continues to spread vaccine misinformation, cut lifesaving NIH-funded research, and dismantle our public health infrastructure. RFK Jr. must end his Make America Sick Agenda.

Replacing ACIP scientists with conspiracy theorists and issuing a dangerous vaccine schedule was never going to hold up. Today a federal judge proved it. Vaccine policy must be guided by science.

Trump promised to bring down prices on day 1. But prices are soaring & Americans are making very tough decisions to scrape by. From launching a multibillion-dollar war of choice to refusing to extend ACA tax credits, it's clear Trump never gave a damn about reducing your costs.

If you are a: - married woman that changed your last name, - student that moved away to college, - senior & lifelong voter with mobility issues, Republicans' SAVE Act will make it HARDER and more EXPENSIVE for you to vote. Democrats will be fighting to keep our elections fair and FREE.

We’ve seen this disastrous playbook before – it’s a lot easier to get into a war in the Middle East than it is to get out of one. Does Trump have any idea at all on how to end this?

Because of President Trump’s war in Iran, anything that depends on the cost of fuel is going to go up. That means trucking, that means airline tickets. That means the price of food. youtube.com/shorts/22yp2...

Three weeks into Trump’s war of choice with Iran, and 13 American service members are dead, while families back home are facing soaring gas costs and skipping meals to keep up with health care and utility bills. No one is winning this war. The United States definitely isn't.

Not a single Senate Democrat will support the SAVE Act. Not this week. Not next week. Not ever. We will oppose it on the floor as long as it takes.

This week, Senate Republicans will force votes on the so-called SAVE America Act. It would block millions of service members, seniors, women, and more from voting. I will vote no.

This decision is a welcome first step toward repairing the damage RFK Jr. has done to our public health. Americans deserve vaccine guidance they can trust, and we need to pass my VACCINE Act to protect our public health system from future interference.
