This settlement falls short of what fans deserve. Breaking up Live Nation-Ticketmaster is the only way to loosen its grip on venues, artists, and fans. I'm introducing a bill to stop corrupt antitrust settlements and I'm glad states plan to continue the case to protect consumers.

Americans can't catch a break. President Trump took away their health care. He took away their food assistance. And now his reckless war with Iran is driving up the cost of gas. Working families can't afford Trump's agenda.

U.S. courts shouldn’t be working in service of authoritarian regimes. A new, bipartisan bill I'm leading would stop foreign governments and their proxies from using meritless "SLAPP" suits to intimidate those who are speaking out against their oppressors.

Trump’s illegal war in Iran is causing the largest oil shock in history. Gas prices are spiking, and Americans will be feeling the pain at the pump. Meanwhile, Trump is not ruling out sending ground troops into Iran. Americans do not want an expensive and endless war abroad.

As the Ukrainian people enter their fifth year of war against Putin's aggression, the U.S. and our allies must form a coalition to use Putin's money against him – by wielding billions in Russian sovereign assets on Ukraine's behalf. Read my op-ed ⬇️ www.euractiv.com/opinion/puti...

Trump’s pay-to-play DOJ just corruptly caved to Ticketmaster—selling out music fans to lobbyists. This weak settlement will do nothing to stop Ticketmaster’s anticompetitive abuses against consumers & musicians.

Trump knows his kids & grandkids won't have to fight this war with Iran that he's sending Americans into. He knows higher prices at the grocery store & gas pump won't affect him. It's American families that will pay the price for Trump's reckless decisions.

A hard-working single mom shouldn’t have to wonder how long groceries will last — yet millions do. Food banks are stepping up every day to help our neighbors who struggle to afford the basics—but we must do more to lower costs for Americans.

The Constitution makes clear that Congress has the power to declare war. President Trump must make his case before the American people and tell us the end goal of these operations.

This hateful rhetoric doesn't belong in American Society. When leaders talk like this, people get hurt – or worse. I hope my colleagues on both sides of the aisle join me in calling this out for the unacceptable bigotry it is.

BREAKING: Donald Trump just betrayed every fan who’s been exploited by Ticketmaster. This fine is less than 1% of Live Nation’s revenue last year AND lets them continue to rip off fans with a 15% “Ticketmaster Tax." It's wrong. We need to break up Ticketmaster and Live Nation.

The SAVE Act is NOT about strengthening voter ID. It's a way for this regime to steal upcoming elections. Republicans want to silence MILLIONS of eligible voters by making it harder to register to vote. And married women, you're one of the SAVE Act's perfect targets.

DHS agents detained an American citizen from Evanston for nearly two days before stranding her in Wisconsin with no way to get home. Any new DHS Secretary must commit to ending these unlawful detentions.

Last year Trump slashed funds for healthcare & food programs. Now he's spending $1 BILLION PER DAY on his war of choice in Iran. While millions here at home can't afford their basic needs, Trump is spending billions on a regime change war that's making us less safe.
