We all see how the war in Iran is driving up gas and diesel prices. The result is everything from groceries to deliveries becoming more expensive for Arizona families. Instead of working to lower costs, Trump is actively driving them up. It needs to stop.
- AK
Ending Trump's Iran war is an urgent matter. Americans can't wait for Republicans in Congress to wake up. They need this over. NOW.

Yesterday, Michiganders across our state bore the brunt of extreme weather, including floods and tornadoes. This is a difficult and trying time for our neighbors, but Michiganders stand together, and we will rebuild together.

From his illegal tariffs to his illegal war — Trump has done nothing but make life more expensive for the American people.

Congress cannot keep letting Donald Trump spend billions, destabilize the world, and make Americans’ lives even more expensive without oversight. We must defend the Constitution. We will keep forcing this fight on the Senate floor.

I met with leadership from the Knox County Area Partnership to discuss how Congress can support economic development and infrastructure in the region. It is always a pleasure to meet with organizations representing the interests of our state, and this was no exception.

What a loss for local journalism, but what a meaningful legacy to leave behind and inspire others. Rest in peace, Joel. My thoughts are with his loved ones and family.

This is a dangerous effort to rewrite the history of January 6th and will only further embolden the people who are willing to use violence to undermine our democracy. President Trump is sending a clear message – loyalty to him is more important than the rule of law. www.cbsnews.com/news/doj-mov...

Joel was a legendary journalist who did important shoe-leather reporting. We didn’t always agree, but that’s not how he’d ever have wanted it—he knew his top job was to hold our leaders accountable.

I voted YES on reining in Trump’s unconstitutional war with Iran and NO on sending more bombs and bulldozers to Israel. Republicans blocked BOTH.

Since they’re abusing the Congressional Review Act to get around the filibuster, I am reserving some of my time so I can make closing remarks in the morning before the final vote. Maybe they’ll listen to reason after a night’s sleep. Stay tuned. Save the Boundary Waters.

This isn't just an issue for Minnesota. It's an issue for our nation. The Boundary Waters are about something bigger.

We should not send 1,000 pound bombs and armored bulldozers to Netanyahu that could be used not only in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon, but also in Trump's illegal Iran war. There's no military solution to this crisis. We must solve this at the negotiating table & end this war.

The tax refunds that Americans are receiving this year are being eaten up by Trump's tariffs—which are costing the average American household $1,700 this year. Thanks to Republicans, billionaires get a kickback and you pay a Trump tariff tax.

I’m holding the Senate floor tonight in protest of legislation that would allow a copper-nickel sulfide mine on the doorstep of the Boundary Waters. Not this mine. Not this place.

The Netanyahu government has repeatedly rejected paths to peace and continues to deepen humanitarian suffering. The U.S. must use its leverage to demand change. I support ending the fighting, surging humanitarian aid, and ensuring safety and prosperity for Israelis and Palestinians. (2/2)

I voted with Senator Sanders to block hundreds of millions in additional weapons to the Netanyahu government. It will only enable destruction, undermine a two-state solution, and escalate the illegal war with Iran. (1/2)

The historic Artemis II mission was an inspiration to millions as we begin a new era of space exploration. Congress must deliver NASA the funding it needs to continue our exploration of the Moon, and move on to the ultimate challenge — Mars.

This Tax Day, don't forget this: Donald Trump went out of his way to shut down the IRS' FREE and EASY tax filing program. But I have a bill to bring it back for good. Let's get it done.

4 years ago, then-Rep. Mike Waltz called on President Biden to make clear that Putin was an 'absolute war criminal.' Today, he refused to even utter those words himself. As one of Trump's top diplomats, his reversal speaks volumes.

At least 13 American servicemembers were killed and hundreds more have been injured. Michigan gas has jumped to nearly $4 a gallon. Fertilizer costs have increased dramatically for our farmers. That’s why today I voted to reassert Congress’s authority on war powers and end this conflict.

We still don’t know Trump’s clear reason for starting this war and how he plans to end it.

New Hampshire’s maple syrup industry is iconic. Unfortunately, with climate change and President Trump’s tariffs on Canada, our producers are at risk—threatening this quintessential Granite State industry.

I’m praying for the safety of the tens of thousands of service members the president is moving into the region and the many civilians in harm’s way. I'll continue to seek out every effort I can to end this war, keep Americans safe, and protect civilians across the region.

He also promised the American people he would stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Instead, his reckless war, waged without publicly laying out a clear rationale, strategy, or goal, has left the American and Iranian people all worse off than before it started.

I voted again to end President Trump’s war of choice with Iran, which has plunged the Middle East into chaos. Trump promised the Iranian people that help is on the way so they can rise up against their dangerous, repressive regime.

Instead of protecting musicians & their fans, the DOJ cut a last-minute, corrupt bargain with Trump’s friends at Ticketmaster & attempted to sabotage this important case. Congratulations to the state AGs & advocates that kept fighting & secured this huge victory.
- RB
Last month, I released a PSI report that demonstrated—based on internal documents—how Ticketmaster leveraged its monopolistic control over ticketing & venues to drive up prices, & make concert-going unaffordable.
- RB
An important antitrust win! A federal jury has recognized what concert fans, musicians & independent venues know all too well: Live Nation/Ticketmaster is an illegal monopoly.

Budgets are about values. Trump wants $200 billion for his unilateral war in Iran, yet he let health care premiums double for Americans. That same amount could extend ACA tax credits for 7 years. Or cover dental/hearing/vision for EVERY senior on Medicare — for 3 years!

70% of Minnesotans do NOT want copper nickel mining near the Boundary Waters. The Senate has a chance to do right by them by leaving the mining moratorium in place.

Before Trump’s war of choice with Iran, the Strait of Hormuz was open. Now it's closed, your gas prices are climbing, and the president still cannot explain how any of this makes America safer.
