The facts: - Taylor Farms lettuce was linked to the cyclospora outbreak - Taylor Farms reportedly called the White House with a plea to delay a recall - Taylor Farms is a donor to MAGA, Inc. - The Trump admin botched the response to this outbreak What does this look like to you?

Apparently, Trump thinks the most important issue facing Americans right now is renaming lakes.

NEW DATA: Americans have been forced to spend an additional $3,800+ on everyday essentials since President Trump took office last year. Our new report shows how much more families have spent on housing, groceries, gas, health care, and more at the national, state, and district levels.

Now is not the time to roll back oversight of data centers. Americans deserve to know how these facilities will impact their communities. That’s why I’ve introduced legislation that would require data centers to be transparent about their energy and water use, emissions, and other key impacts.

Getting to Beaver Island is a bit of an adventure. Meet the captain and crew and see what it takes to get to the most isolated inhabited island in the lower 48. This is what it takes to keep Beaver Island connected to the rest of Michigan.

Instead of lowering prices for working Americans, Trump is igniting a trade war with one of our closest allies. He's not billing Canada. He's billing American families, seniors, and working people.

While my Republican colleagues made devastating cuts to Medicaid that will wreak havoc on rural hospitals, I’m proud to stand up for them. Great to visit Richland Hospital to see how they’re using the $4.5 million I secured to make repairs so they can keep doing what they do best.

Farmers are some of America’s most resilient entrepreneurs. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do all we can to make their life and business easier. We need to bring down costs for American farmers by ending Trump’s illegal tariffs, war in Iran, and passing a new Farm Bill.

Under Donald Trump, our VA has one of the most restrictive abortion bans in the country—denying Veterans care even in cases of rape, incest or serious health risks. Politicians have no business interfering in the personal health decisions of those who served. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

If you don't get a tax write-off for your private jet, Trump doesn't care about you. How do I know? At every turn, Trump has helped his billionaire friends get richer and made working families foot the bill.

Small towns and rural communities are seeing a troubling trend of labor and delivery services being cut at rural hospitals. It means when expecting mothers go into labor, they have to drive farther to get the care they need, which can be dangerous for both baby and mom.

I was the first Senator to call on RFK Jr. to resign or be fired in May 2025, and I will keep making that call. Under his leadership we've had the worst measles outbreak in 35 years — including a new outbreak in three Maryland counties and two deaths in Pennsylvania.

“They murdered our child. People need to be held responsible when they murder people in this country." Alex Pretti's family is right, we need accountability for him & every victim of Trump's lawless ICE operation. That Alex’s family still has no answers is absolutely shameful.

Trump and Rubio are handing Saudi Arabia the technology to produce nuclear weapons material—the most reckless nuclear deal in U.S. history. This is the starting gun for a Middle East nuclear arms race and is corruption at the expense of national security. Congress must reject it.

This outcome speaks for itself. Big Tech companies like Meta are purposely harming our kids. That's why I introduced a bill requiring parental permission before kids under 16 join social media. Time to put an end to Big Tech making billions at the expense of our kids' well-being.

Inflation today is higher than when Trump took office in January 2025, higher than when he launched his chaotic tariffs in April 2025, and higher than when he launched his illegal war in Iran five months ago. Trump’s decisions are driving up costs and eating into your paycheck.
