Trump and his friends are in political trouble. Their response? Make it harder for you to vote and disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans. Trump said it out loud: If they pass the SAVE Act, Republicans will "never lose a race for 50 years.” Vote NO.
- JR
The “SAVE America Act” is an extreme Republican attempt to make it harder to vote. At a time when the prices of gas, groceries, and health care are going up, this is what they’re focused on?

In addition to the lives lost & the fact that it's making us less safe, the Iran war has cost $12 BILLION so far. With that we could provide: - Healthcare for 1.3 MILLION people, or - SNAP for 5.5 MILLION people, or - Universal pre-K for 900,000 kids How is this America First?

Last week, I had the privilege of meeting with the Professional Firefighters of New Hampshire and the Shipyard Professional Fire Fighters. These brave men and women are invaluable in our communities. Thank you for all that you do to keep the Granite State safe.

What Trump said he’d do: end forever wars and lower costs. What Trump is actually doing: starting overseas wars that raise costs. This is a presidency of broken promises. youtube.com/shorts/B6lVQ...

Meta wants to quietly roll out facial recognition technology in its smart glasses, hoping Americans won’t notice the potential risk to their privacy and civil rights. They’re mistaken. I have serious questions about the privacy risks and ethics of deploying this technology.

This is a real problem. People already stretched thin can’t afford higher gas prices. Arizonans need real relief and I'm pushing this administration to make sure it happens.

This war isn’t being paid for by the people who started it. It’s hardworking Americans who are already paying more at the pump, the grocery store, and for health care.

President Trump fired a majority of the Kennedy Center board. He fired a majority of the Consumer Product Safety Commission. He fired the entire Commission of Fine Arts. He's trying to purge independent experts from the government and replace them with his cronies.

Tonight, my colleagues and I said goodbye to Australian Ambassador to the U.S. Kevin Rudd, who is stepping down from his position at the end of the month. Rudd has been an indispensable partner in strengthening the longstanding ties between our two nations, and he will be missed on the Hill.

Right now, billionaires can pay less in taxes on their stock trades than teachers or nurses that educate our children and care for us in emergencies. My Equal Tax Act would stop rewarding wealth more than work by making the ultra-wealthy pay taxes like millions of working people.

Last summer, Trump laid off 1,300 State Department workers, including many of the agency's oil and gas experts. Would Americans be paying less at the pump if those who were supposed to have oversight of the Strait of Hormuz were still on the payroll?

The war in Iran has already cost $22.8 billion. For $22.8 billion, we could: • Provide Medicaid to 6.8 million kids • Build 2.6 million public housing units • Fund Head Start for 1.3 million • Hire 240,000 teachers • Cancel $20,000 in student debt for 1 million borrowers

Our elections are FAIR & FREE. The only fraud is Trump and Republicans pushing this sham voter suppression bill because they broke their promises to the American people and are scared of the consequences.

Senate Republicans just rushed to confirm Anna St. John, a partisan judicial nominee with serious impartiality concerns. She even testified against our bipartisan bill to end forced arbitration in the workplace and allow sexual harassment and assault victims their day in court. Shameful.

Just… wow. Gas prices are spiking, rising fertilizer costs are crushing farmers, and Team Trump just admitted that you’re the last of their concerns. So much for affordability.

Paramilitary forces are occupying our cities due to President Trump’s mass deportation campaign. It’s terrorizing children—and it’s destroying families. It needs to end.

Electric bills are skyrocketing, and families are paying the price. President Trump’s policies and his war with Iran are driving up costs, and when asked about it, he said, “If prices rise, they rise.” He’s putting Americans last and making them pay the price.

Again and again, Democrats have tried to fund TSA, FEMA and the Coast Guard while we negotiate on ICE and Border Patrol. Republicans have blocked us every time.

Trump is already waging a deeply unpopular war against Iran. Now, Trump says he thinks he can have “the honor of taking Cuba.” We need to focus on helping Americans and lowering costs, not inciting a new global conflict every month.

Rather than saving America from being dragged into a forever war, Senate Republicans would rather focus on their so-called SAVE America Act. Here's how dangerous this voter suppression bill would be for your right to vote:

Gas prices are increasing. Health care premiums have skyrocketed. Electricity bills are up. Groceries are more expensive. And instead of focusing on how to bring down costs, Trump is flippantly suggesting that he might use your taxpayer dollars and risk servicemember lives to TAKE OVER CUBA.

The SAVE Act does one thing: make voting harder. More paperwork, more costs, and more people wrongly kicked off the rolls. This is not election integrity — it's voter suppression. That's why I'm a NO.

Launching a new war. Ripping health care away from millions. Unleashing terror on our streets. This President feels his support collapsing. That’s why he is so desperate to suppress the vote.

Americans already struggling with rising costs are now facing higher gasoline prices. Meanwhile, this Administration hasn’t made the case for this war or laid out a strategic path forward. This is not leadership.

Seriously? The Trump admin just admitted they know extending this illegal war will drive up costs and hurt hardworking families trying to make ends meet, and still said that’s “the last of their concerns.” Their actions have made it clear: helping American families isn’t their priority.

AI is going to shape the future of America’s national security, and we must win the AI race against China. But to do that, we need action that puts limits on AI in the Department of Defense. This is just common sense.
