Global Entry uses automated kiosks to save staff capacity & expedite processing. Is Kristi Noem forcing employees to unplug kiosks & MANUALLY process passengers? Truly as dumb as it gets. Instead of punishing travelers, Trump should focus on negotiating urgent ICE reforms.

It was wonderful to spend time getting to know our Spring 2026 NJ interns. I am so appreciative of the work they do to support New Jerseyans across the Garden State, from outreach events to constituent services. I can't wait to see what they do next!

President Trump says he wants to stop Wall Street and private equity from buying up homes. Democrats are introducing The American Homeownership Act to get it done - while boosting housing supply and lowering costs. The President and Republicans should join us.

In the four years since Russia’s brutal invasion, the Ukrainian people have shown great courage and ingenuity as they’ve resisted Putin’s aggression. The American people stand with Ukraine in their fight for sovereignty and territorial integrity. 🧵

Honored to celebrate the grand opening of the High Ridge Center, a historic space bringing all Divine 9 organizations together under one roof. This is more than a building, it’s a hub for service, fellowship, and community, and a model for the nation on what collaboration looks like.

Tereza Lee is one of the hundreds of thousands of Dreamers who make our nation better and was my inspiration for writing the Dream Act in 2001. She will also be my guest for the 2026 SOTU to show President Trump that we will never give up on Dreamers, no matter how much he tries to abandon them.

How much did our grifter FBI Director spend on travel, security, and accommodations to party in Italy on the taxpayer dime? Waste, fraud, and abuse—the call was always coming from inside the house.

Meet my State of the Union guest, Jeremy Schumacher. Without ACA tax credits, his health insurance costs jumped 288%. An $11,000 increase. Trump sold out the American people to give billionaires another tax break.

Letter carriers have delivered for us, and now it’s time for USPS to deliver for them. I was proud to rally with National Association of Letter Carriers members this weekend in support of a fair deal that provides the pay, health care, physical safety, and retirement benefits they deserve.

ICE is terrorizing our communities and scaring away business and visitors from many of our destination towns. It’s unacceptable and hurts our local economies.

Trump is continuing his crusade against public education, this time by putting conspiracy theorist RFK Jr. in charge of school safety. That’s like putting Pam Bondi in charge of releasing the Epstein files. Oh wait.

Tomorrow, Trump is going to ramble & lie to the country. I'm not dignifying that, so I'm NOT attending SOTU. But I'll be addressing WA state myself—TOMORROW at 3:15 pm PST. Health care is way too expensive. ICE is out of control. We can chart a better way forward. Tune in.

Trump is desperate to cling to power, and the Republican SAVE Act is one of the ways he wants to do it. HELL NO, we won’t let Trump seize control of our elections.

CDC safeguards were bypassed to fast-track a controversial vaccine study. There was no proper review, infants were put at risk, and scientists worldwide raised ethical concerns. Once again, RFK Jr.’s "leadership" is putting public trust and lives at risk.

Took no time for Trump to strap the rest of us back onto the Tariff rollercoaster: higher prices for everyone in the meantime. Still, he owes you a refund for his illegal tariffs, and Republicans in Congress can help us put an end to these tariffs any day.

Trump doesn't care about the burdens he's imposing on Americans with his tariffs—but Democrats do. We will NOT extend the Trump tariffs once they expire in a few months. We'll do everything we can to stop them. We won't stand for higher prices and more inflation.

The SAVE Act is a dangerous move to keep Black and Brown voters, women, and LGBTQ+ people from the ballot box. Trump and MAGA Republicans know they have no solutions to the issues that Americans are angry about, so they plan to meddle with the 2026 election. I will vote NO.

Trump has spent the last year driving up prices, slashing health care, creating chaos in our communities, picking fights with other countries, and burying the Epstein files. The American people have had enough.

So the tariffs are illegal, as we’ve long known. Will Trump give the hundreds of billions back to the small businesses hurt by these tariffs? Or was this just another grift?

The numbers don't lie: Donald Trump robbed Americans families an average of $1,700 with his illegal tariff tax. It's time for Trump to pay up. He needs to tell the American people his plan to pay back the $1,700 in hard-earned money he stole from them. www.jec.senate.gov/public/index...

Trump’s tariffs were ruled illegal – and he’s still looking for new ways to bring them back and spike your costs. Even when the Supreme Court tries to intervene, he will stop at nothing to raise Americans’ prices.

Donald Trump and his Education Secretary are hellbent on illegally abolishing the Education Department and making our public education system worse. Students and families deserve better. We need a full investigation into this administration's attempts to sabotage our schools.

Section 702 is an important tool for keeping our nation safe from foreign threats. But it’s been used instead for warrantless spying on Americans. That’s unacceptable. We just introduced a bipartisan bill to reauthorize and reform it to protect national security AND civil liberties.

The MAGA trifecta cover-up of report on Trump’s crimes: on one “side,” the MAGA DOJ; on the other “side,” defendant Donald J. Trump; presiding, a MAGA Trump judge. So much for the “adversary system.”

Republicans literally cut Medicaid so that giant corporations could pay less in taxes than a teacher or firefighter. That’s not fair, and it’s not fiscally responsible either. Our taxpayer dollars SHOULD be going toward things like health care—not tax breaks for billionaires.

The American people have foot the bill for President Trump’s trade war—and, while Secretary Bessent might not think so, they deserve a refund. I joined my colleagues in introducing a new bill to do just that. The President shouldn't stand in the way of refunds for everyday Americans.
