Republicans blocked Democrats' bill to pay TSA workers AGAIN. Then, they blocked our bill to fund all of DHS besides ICE & CBP...AGAIN. We've given Republicans every chance to solve this TODAY. They refuse unless Congress cuts a blank check to ICE. Not happening.

I spoke with National Cancer Institute Director Dr. Anthony Letai to express my hope that NCI will be focused on its core mission to reduce cancer suffering & death by acting swiftly to support new and existing scientific research that will save lives, absent political interference.

Trump is considering deploying thousands of troops to the Middle East to expand operations in his war-of-choice against Iran. That would needlessly risk the lives of our troops and only escalate the crisis. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

It was great to meet with students from the Rowan Institute of Public Policy and Citizenship (RIPPAC) and hear about what's been on their minds. This is the next generation of leaders in New Jersey and beyond. I'm proud to support them on their journeys!

Thank you to Burnsville Police Chief Tanya Schwartz for 31 years of dedicated service to the department. She led with strength and compassion through incredibly difficult times, including the tragic loss of three first responders. www.twincities.com/2026/03/17/b...

It's hard not to laugh when my Republican colleagues talk about a lack of transparency or accountability in our government while refusing to look at Trump's laundry list of waste, fraud, and abuse.

As we have all week, Democrats will continue to hold the floor to block the Republican voter suppression SAVE Act. And as I’ve said all week: We will not let this bill pass under any circumstances, no matter how long it takes.

In Trump’s America, bribery is the name of the game. Trump’s cronies like Corey Lewandowski profit off of power and your pain. This blatant corruption is disgraceful.

Today, I took to the Senate floor to try to pass funding for TSA. My Republican colleagues said no. They are holding all the other Homeland Security agencies hostage because of ICE. Set ICE aside while we negotiate reforms. Fund everything else today. youtube.com/shorts/5cmjP...

TSA agents deserve to be paid through this shutdown. Yesterday, Senate Republicans blocked legislation to do just that–and it’s not the first time.

99% of Colorado Republicans voted by mail in 2025. It’s safe, secure, and saves money. The SAVE America Act would ban mail-in voting. We’re fighting to stop MAGA attacks on YOUR right to vote to make sure their bill has no chance of passing.

No money for your health care. No money for hungry families. No money for grandma’s nursing home. No money for Elmo. No money for cancer research. But endless money for war.

Sailors with the Ford Carrier Strike Group have been at sea for nearly 9 months. They should be home with their families. Lengthy deployments and terrible ship conditions are bad for our servicemembers, their families, readiness, and military retention. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/u...

While Trump cuts taxes for billionaires, @vanhollen.senate.gov and I want to cut them for working families. Our bill cuts taxes for millions of middle-class Americans — paid for by asking millionaires to pay their fair share. Families deserve a break, not more handouts to the wealthy.

Republicans slashed Medicaid & food stamps for hungry kids to give ICE more money than most militaries. Then, Kristi Noem's right-hand man used that money to try to enrich himself with BRIBES. There needs to be hearings, and we need accountability for this historic corruption.

Republicans blocked our bill to fully fund TSA & their agents. This is the 8th time they've blocked our attempts to reopen TSA, FEMA, & other agencies outside of ICE & CBP at DHS. But they would rather hold these agencies hostage to give Trump's ICE & CBP another blank check.

Trump ran on lowering grocery costs for American families—but food prices have only increased, and his war of choice will send them skyrocketing as Iran blocks fertilizer shipments. That's what happens when you leave foreign policy up to an out-of-touch billionaire. www.cnbc.com/2026/03/11/i...

If Trump's so-called "SAVE America" Act was actually about voter ID, you'd be able to use your driver's license or your military ID to register to vote. But it's not. It's about making it harder for the American people to cast their ballot this November.

Men and women in uniform swore an oath to protect and uphold the Constitution. The SAVE America Act would mean these service members would no longer be able to show just their military ID to register to vote.

Trump and Republicans want $200 billion for their Iran war. Last summer, they cut nearly $200 billion from food assistance. These may be Trump’s priorities, but they’re not ours.

The Trump Administration’s mass deportation operation detained a DACA recipient as he was delivering milk to his baby in NICU. ICE is tearing families apart and traumatizing children. Congress MUST stand up for Dreamers.

Trump’s war of choice is widening and creating a worldwide energy crisis. We need leaders who understand the severity of the moment and can rise to the occasion. Not leaders who would rather feign ignorance than disagree with Trump.

🚨 @alexismjpp.bsky.social and I highlighted a new report on GOP Medicaid cuts harming @ppfa.org. Clinics are closing. Breast cancer screenings are down. Women’s health is under attack. Trump & GOP are attacking reproductive rights. Proud to co-author this report exposing it.

The SAVE Act isn’t saving anyone. It’s a regressive, backwards bill that threatens to disenfranchise millions. I’m voting NO.

Trump is asking Congress for $200 billion more for his war in Iran, but he cut your health care, drove costs up, and slashed Medicaid. He wants money for his war first while Americans are paying for it.

$200 BILLION?! Do you know what we could do with that kind of money? Universal health care, free school meals for every child, free community college for every American. The list goes on. I’m a NO on more money for Trump’s war with Iran.

Members of the military put their lives on the line to keep our nation safe—they deserve access to the very best health care. The President and Congressional Republicans’ reckless cuts are jeopardizing health care access for thousands of servicemembers. That’s unacceptable.

$200B would’ve covered 6 years worth of ACA tax credits (yes, the same health care funding they shot down as too expensive) They’d rather spend money on yet another unjustified war in the Middle East than health care for our own citizens.

This is insane. Trump is spending $1 BILLION of your tax dollars to kill clean energy projects that would've lowered electric bills, because it helps Big Oil. This will only help oil & gas companies & hurt working people who are already struggling to pay their bills.
