President Trump asked Americans to accept another war. Now he owes them the truth about what it costs. The bill isn’t just $37.5 billion—it could be closer to $200 billion. Show your math. You got us into this war. Explain to the American people what the cost is and don't fudge the figures.

We’ve now voted a DOZEN TIMES to end Trump’s illegal war that’s costing American lives. The American people are sick and tired of it. We need to bring our troops home safely and start bringing down costs for Americans. END THE WAR NOW!

Billions for war, but nothing to lower your healthcare costs or your grocery bill. Trump and congressional Republicans put America last.

I'm standing with the Glenwood Springs community to fight against renewed gravel mining threats to the Glenwood Hot Springs. Risking this one-of-a-kind resource is shortsighted and irresponsible.

Congress voted in a bipartisan, bicameral way to end this war. The President won’t end it. Prices continue to rise, and more American servicemembers have died. I’ve heard colleagues across the aisle say they’re praying for an end to this war. I urge them to vote for that too.

The call is coming from inside the (White) House. Trump knows who is actually guilty of trying to influence our elections… but he’d rather sling accusations elsewhere to justify his interference in the midterms.

On the campaign trail, Trump promised free IVF if he was elected. Nearly two years later, he still hasn’t delivered. No more delays. No more broken promises. It’s time to pass the Right to IVF Act.

Donald Trump and RFK Jr. cut the team tracking cyclospora by more than 70%. Now we've got a nationwide outbreak. We should be investing in public health — not gutting it.

Private equity gutted Steward Health Care and closed two hospitals in Massachusetts. Patients & health workers suffered, and communities were left to clean up the mess. Never again. I’m proud to reintroduce the Health Over Wealth Act with @jayapal.house.gov to stop this corporate greed.

We’re already starting to see concerning signs about AI displacing entry-level jobs… and I’m worried things could get worse. This week, I introduced even more legislation to help us protect jobs and get ready for the massive changes to our economy. We need to pass it ASAP.

As health care prices soar, millions of Americans are forced to choose between affording life-saving insulin or paying for rent or groceries. No one should have to make that choice. By capping insulin at $35 per month, my INSULIN Act ensures that’s the case.

Owning a home is out of reach, the average age of a first time homebuyer is 40. I'm proud the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is now law – to help lower costs and put the American Dream of homeownership back within reach.

I was in Troy on Monday calling on Republicans to keep hungry families fed and work with Democrats to delay the upcoming SNAP cost shift. Food banks alone can’t fill the gap left by Republicans’ SNAP cuts. We must listen to our local food bank leaders: www.timesunion.com/opinion/arti...

Today, I met with Pastor Jin Mingri, who was imprisoned for 266 days in China for his tireless advocacy for freedom of religion and democracy. It is also long overdue that the remaining eight jailed members of his church as well as Gulshan Abbas, Jimmy Lai, Gao Quanfu, & Pang Yu also be released.

Trump broke his promise of free IVF. He doesn't care if veterans can build a family. The Texas GOP just made BANNING IVF a part of their official party platform. These extremists are gaining traction, and we can't be silent. Democrats are fighting back to protect IVF.

We are in the fifth month of Trump’s war of choice with Iran, yet Senate Republicans are continuing to give him a blank check to put American service members’ lives at risk. Their refusal to exercise their constitutional duty only emboldens the President’s worst impulses.

I've long fought to ban congressional stock trading, but the House Republican-passed bill has MAJOR LOOPHOLES. Lawmakers can continue owning and selling stocks - so it won't solve the problem. Not gonna fly in the Senate. Members of Congress should not own, buy, or sell stocks.

I’ve asked my Republican colleagues to support my bill, the Protect Our Polls Act, because “None of us want our military at our polls, right?" Their response was, “I don’t want to insult the President.” Don't worry about the President. Worry about your democracy and protecting the country.
