It takes a long time to build trust and an instant to lose it. We cannot keep kicking our allies in the teeth and cozying up to our authoritarian adversaries. Listen to my interview from the Munich Security Conference.

Visitors to our country should not face a digital shakedown. @wyden.senate.gov and I are calling on CBP to reverse its invasive proposal to collect five years of social media history from travelers from trusted partner nations.

This Valentine's Day, I'm sharing the story of my parents, who met in France during WWII and fell in love. Their courage, toughness, and bravery have stuck with me throughout my career and inspires me to meet the challenges of today.

Higher electricity costs for consumers is on purpose — paying back Trump’s big donors with your money. They hope you won’t see their game.
- SW
Excellent, but lost the punchline: slowing clean energy drives the grid to fossil; higher-cost fossil drives money from customers to Trump donors.

Instead of cutting cancer and Alzheimer’s research by nearly half like Trump wanted—I secured a more than $415 million increase to fund NIH and lifesaving medical research. I said I would tear up Trump's budget and write a new one and that's exactly what I did.

In just one year of RFK Jr, we’ve seen an unprecedented spike in measles cases and a rapid decline of our scientific reputation across the globe. Americans will die because of his poor leadership.

From trying to jail sitting members of Congress who said U.S. troops must follow the law by refusing illegal orders... to killing Americans for protesting... and now trying to prevent MILLIONS of Americans from voting... For Trump, this has always been about control and power.

Affordability concerns aren’t a “hoax,” and American communities are feeling the effects of President Trump’s tariffs in all aspects of their lives—from higher prices to less jobs. www.wsj.com/economy/u-s-...

Minnesotans are going to be reeling from this for a long time. Yes, it seems they’re in retreat. But that doesn’t fix the damage they’ve brought upon us. When this is all over, we’re going to be left figuring out how to put our state back together again.

This week, I spoke with VA community college leaders. Key provisions of my bill to expand Pell Grants to cover high-quality, short-term job training programs were signed into law, and it was great to discuss ways to build on this to help Virginians access good-paying jobs.

Trump’s 1st year in office had the worst job growth this decade, excluding COVID. In that same year, the 1% got a TRILLION dollars in tax cuts, the Trump family got $1.4 BILLION richer, & Americans paid $192 BILLION in tariff-related costs. Working people are getting fleeced.

The Trump Administration’s disgraceful, politically-motivated attempt to indict Members of Congress for simply stating the law is unprecedented. This Administration is determined to use every tool at their disposal to stifle dissent, even from a co-equal branch of government.

After this court decision, any further MAGA DOJ efforts to charge Senators Kelly and Slotkin runs right into prospect of malicious prosecution/prosecutorial misconduct/attorney discipline. Bet your bar ticket, guys?

My investigators saw a large number of his financial documents at the Treasury Department in 2024. But Scott Bessent now has the complete set under lock and key, blocking further investigation. I'm leading the charge to get them handed over.

First Trump pushed out career national security experts working to counter cyber threats posed by China. Now he’s shelving critical safeguards they put in place. Why is the Trump Administration so eager to do Beijing’s bidding?

It is literally zero surprise that they knew their hand-picked climate deniers weren’t putting out real science. Their nonsense has never been real, but part of a fraudulent propaganda campaign, designed by fossil fuel to protect its “free-to-pollute” business model.

This is not America. This is why Democrats voted NO on more funding for ICE. And we will continue to do so until ICE is reined in and the violence ends.

A year into RFK Jr.’s disastrous run at HHS, the results are exactly what we thought: instability, dangerous misinformation, and weakened public health. I worked with @wyden.senate.gov on a 71-page report documenting the consequences of this chaotic year. Accountability matters.

Is Trump trying to ruin Valentine’s Day? Because of his idiotic economic policies, like his tariffs, V-Day is set to be over 15% more expensive than last year. People should be able to celebrate their loved ones without worrying about sky-high prices.

When people are in government custody, we are responsible for their care. 30+ people have died in ICE detention since President Trump took office. They must answer for it.

There's a reason why support for NATO is at its highest point in history in the United States among voters. Because voters are looking at the chaos and conflict in the world and they understand that NATO helps make us safe.

The President, Stephen Miller, Secretary Noem and others are labeling people like Renee Good as domestic terrorists. ICE agents are saying that people are being added to a domestic terrorist list. I asked ICE leadership about this.

1 year of RFK Jr. Let's grade his results. ❌ 15 million people losing healthcare ❌ Over $1 trillion cut from Medicaid & the ACA ❌ Premiums x3 for 20 million+ Americans ❌ The largest measles outbreak in decades RFK Jr. and Trump are making us sicker and less safe.

We look to find common ground in Munich, demonstrating that Congress is invested in combating the global climate crisis, beating back creeping authoritarianism, and supporting democratic allies across the world, especially those fighting for freedom in Ukraine.

Trump’s submissiveness to Vladimir Putin’s murderous regime and his self-enrichment-first foreign policy has degraded America’s standing in the world. This conference gives us a chance to reassure our allies of our commitments and priorities.
