I’ve led the fight to protect Chaco Canyon from Donald Trump and his administration’s attacks on one of the world's most sacred landscapes. Together, we’ve built a coalition of thousands of New Mexicans and Americans who are standing up and fighting back.

Everyone who wants a fairer and better country needs to pay attention to this. Republican SNAP cuts have wrongly kicked 700,000 KIDS off food assistance. Children are going hungry to subsidize tax breaks for giant corporations—a disaster. Congress MUST reverse these cuts.

Funny how just a few months ago Trump wanted to put his face on a $1 coin. Looks like he had to course correct after realizing Americans can't afford anything with a dollar in his economy.

Americans are feeling the financial shock of a Trump economy. An illegal war, reckless tariffs, and zero thought for working families.

It was great to celebrate Small Business Month with Little Dog Brewing in Neptune City, NJ, and it was equally important to hear how rising utility costs have impacted their operations. What an amazing woman-run establishment in Monmouth County.

Being the 'first state' in foreclosure rates is a clear sign our housing system is desperately in need of repair. It’s time to pass the ROAD to Housing Act so all families can find - and keep - safe place to call home.

Trump emptied Americans' pockets with higher costs. Now he wants his face on the money he took from Americans. My bill would stop the president from advertising his own personal brand. It's time for the president to work for AMERICA, not himself.

Honored to receive the endorsement of the Minnesota AFL-CIO. I come from a Union family. The unions made the mines safe where my grandpa worked. Both my mom and dad belonged to unions. When unions are strong, our economy is strong. When our economy is strong, America is strong.

It’s already too easy for our adversaries to exploit crypto to move billions. We should be strengthening standards, not creating new gaps our adversaries can exploit. The Clarity Act should not pass as written.

Here is yet another staggering example of Trump weaponizing OUR taxpayer-funded Justice Department to target his personal enemies. This is infuriating—this Republican Congress must step in. The President is a corrupt disgrace.

I also visited the Fernley Community Center with Mayor McIntyre and toured their new Boys and Girls Club, and the site of the new Early Learning Center, which will expand child care services to more families in the area. I look forward to bringing their stories back with me to the Senate.

With rising housing costs a top concern in our state, I'm doing everything I can to help people afford a home. Manufactured homes are a critical source of affordable housing in NH, and I'm working to protect these residents from predatory rent hikes. www.wmur.com/article/jean...

Exactly. This administration is spending your tax dollars to entertain and support the richest among us while everyone else struggles to get by. It's completely backwards— we should be helping out those who need it most, not millionaire and billionaire friends of the president.

Three years ago, a court found Trump liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll. Now, Trump is using the DOJ to target his victim. It’s disgusting even by Trump standards. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/27/u...

Trump may not have attended his son's wedding, but now we know his wedding present: $600 million of your tax dollars to one of his companies. The Trump family grift knows no bounds, and neither should our resolve to stop it. www.propublica.org/article/dona...

Tariffs and global instability are driving up fertilizer costs for Minnesota farmers. I was in Mankato because some of the biggest innovations are happening right here: converting local biofuels into domestically sourced fertilizer, creating jobs, and cutting dependence on China.

Donald Trump’s economy is failing you. You’re paying more for gas, groceries, electricity and air conditioning — pretty much everything. What happened to his promise to lower costs?

While your family pays higher prices, companies connected to the Trump family get giant government contracts. Congress must investigate: is this corruption at the highest level? We need answers NOW.

Since Trump took office, 1.75 MILLION children have lost their healthcare. And that's before the Republicans' $1 TRILLION cut to Medicaid, which will impact many more. All while they seek $1 billion for Trump's gold-plated ballroom. Tells you all you need to know.

I don’t trade stocks because Arizonans deserve to know my decisions are made for them. Meanwhile, Trump is trading thousands of stocks while Americans struggle to get by. He should be focused on lowering costs, not personally profiting off his position.

Over my time in Congress, I have had more than 3,000 interns serve in my office, and even more staff. Some, like Illinois State Senator Mike Simmons & Illinois State Representative Kam Buckner, have gone on to serve as elected officials. It has been my honor to help them get their foot in the door.

In violation of laws against putting a living president’s likeness on our currency, Donald Trump wants his image on a $250 bill. How about trying to help Americans with their bills instead?

If this White House put even half as much energy into working to lower costs as it does into stoking the president’s ego, American families wouldn’t need that new $250 bill just to fill up their gas tanks. (3/3)

... renaming buildings and airports after himself; rewards for allies who attacked the Capitol on January 6; a passport bearing his image; and now, apparently, even a proposal for a $250 bill with his face on it. (2/3)

As Americans struggle with the rising cost of gas, groceries, housing, and health care, President Trump’s priorities for taxpayer dollars are completely detached from the challenges families face every day: a gold-plated ballroom; a monument blocking Arlington National Cemetery... (1/3)

People need someone to fight on behalf of their pocketbooks. Was glad to join Roop Raj from FOX 2 Detroit to talk about the war in Iran, gas prices and working together to lower costs.

My team uncovered that foreign enemies are targeting U.S. servicemembers in war zones by buying their location data. The threat to national security posed by data brokers has never been more clear. We need to dismantle the surveillance advertising industry.

Today’s numbers tell the story: families are paying more for gas, food, and housing and utilities. Donald Trump promised to lower costs ‘on day one,' but instead inflation is running ahead of wages as his failed economic agenda hollows out Americans’ paychecks.

Secretary Mullin said I shouldn't have been at Delaney Hall, but I disagree. This isn't about me. This is about the detainees and their families, the lawlessness we're seeing from ICE. I was willing to take a risk and I'd do it all over again to keep people safe.

There are lots of good ideas out there on housing, but the reality is, we need to build more housing to lower people's costs. Let's declare a National Housing Emergency and build 4 million homes.
