This morning’s Supreme Court ruling only further underscores the urgent need for Congress to protect and expand voting rights. We still need to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act.

Affordable and reliable internet is a necessity, but for many families, the cost is just too high. I introduced the Promoting Access to Broadband Act to increase awareness and enrollment in the FCC’s Lifeline program, giving more Americans access to the internet.

This Court ruling weakens protections against discrimination & undermines fair representation. As Justice Kagan said, it marks the “majority’s now-completed demolition of the Voting Rights Act.” We must keep fighting so every American has a voice in our democracy.

Generations of Americans marched, served, protested, and died for the promise of our democracy. Today, the Supreme Court continues its steady march to forget that sacrifice and undo that promise.

This is yet another ruling that weakens voting rights for all Americans. The Voting Rights Act has suffered death by a thousand cuts. We must stand up in Congress to restore voting rights and ensure everyone's voice is heard in our elections.

Lady Liberty is crying. Trump is doubling down on his global apartheid policy, refusing entry to real, vetted refugees. Instead, he is using fake claims of “genocide” to admit white South African "refugees." Since October, they make up 99.93% of refugees admitted to the US.

The President won his election talking about what he was gonna do domestically. But as we continue to see the war drag on with Iran, it’s clear that he has become a foreign policy president. youtube.com/shorts/iLAex...

Congress is creating a national school vouchers program. Arizona already tried that, and it took money out of public schools and spent it on luxury goods instead of kids’ education. Swipe to see what happened — and what I'm doing to stop it.

FISA Section 702 is supposed to be for gathering intelligence on foreigners located abroad. But it has been used and abused for spying on Americans right here at home—including protesters, journalists, and even women on dating apps and rental tenants. Reform 702 now.

Trump’s DOD is squandering an opportunity & obligation. Freezing aid directed by Congress is illegal, & morally reprehensible. Hegseth should be called to account in Congressional hearings today & tomorrow.

Trump wants to cut a quarter billion dollars for worker protection programs that help keep you safe on the job. He already gave billionaire CEOs a tax cut—now he wants to sacrifice your health to them too.

Businesses in New Hampshire rely on Canadian tourism, yet the Trump Administration's actions are pushing visitors away—costing Granite Staters money. Last week, I made sure Secretary Lutnick knew how his childish insults are hurting my constituents. www.wmur.com/article/jean...

From reversing their stance on the pesticide RoundUp after meeting with its CEO, to appointing a Chevron & Big Tobacco lobbyist as a senior health official — this administration doesn't have a "Make America Healthy Again" agenda - it has a "Make Corporate Donors Richer" agenda.

On April 1st, Speaker Johnson vowed to fund DHS "in the coming days." Must have been an April Fools’ joke because INSTEAD, Johnson has extended the shutdown for FOUR WEEKS and counting. So if Speaker Johnson is looking for someone to blame for the shutdown, get him a mirror.

I’m relieved the rest of this year’s LIHEAP funds are finally being released—following pressure from me and other Senators across the aisle. Heating and cooling assistance is critical for families to stay safe and healthy. No one should have to choose between bills and chills.

We held the line against Trump’s voter suppression bill. Now we’re fighting to block his illegal executive order targeting mail-in and absentee ballots. Stripping Coloradans of access to vote-by-mail is a desperate attempt to silence voices and undermine our gold standard elections system.

Must be a total coincidence that the FCC launched this probe right after Jimmy Kimmel told another joke Trump didn't like. The FCC can try to dress this up however they want, but this is just another flagrant attempt to silence Trump critics & stifle free speech. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

DOJ’s political leadership is clearly desperate to continue appeasing Donald Trump by appealing to his worst instincts. This is another case of a weaponized Justice Department.

A conflict with Cuba would cost hardworking Americans billions of dollars, deepen the humanitarian crisis in Cuba, and put American service members in harm’s way. The Constitution is clear: only Congress has the authority to declare war.

The housing crisis is spiraling out of control. Americans can’t afford rent or the skyrocketing costs of ownership. We need to pass the ROAD to Housing Act so we can start taking meaningful action to lower Americans’ costs.

Americans are working longer hours just to keep up with rent, groceries, and bills. Instead of helping them, Republicans are planning to use $400 MILLION in taxpayer dollars to fund Trump’s gilded ballroom. This is exactly where their priorities lie.

The FCC is now threatening ABC's broadcast licenses, days after Donald Trump and Melania Trump demanded they fire Jimmy Kimmel. This is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. Mr. President: Read the Constitution. Freedom of speech is the First Amendment for good reason.

More corruption. A top advisor to RFK Jr. maintained a multi-million-dollar stake in his wellness company that could directly benefit from Trump's expansion of Health Savings Accounts last summer. He didn't divest until November. The grift in this Admin knows no end.

Trump is too busy trying to slap his face on everything to lower costs for working people or end his war in Iran. My new bill, the HUMBLE Presidents Act, would stop the president from advertising his own personal brand. Our leaders should focus on the issues that matter to American families.
