Nope, you’re not imagining it. You’re paying more than you were a year ago everywhere you turn: Airfares: +22.4% Car rentals: +9.1% Streaming: +3.3% Food: +2.5% Donald Trump promised to bring prices down "On Day One." That was more than 600 days ago.

This is the most corrupt President in history. Trump is trying to extort voters—saying he won’t help veterans if this state doesn’t vote his way. We’ve already seen him illegally withhold funds from “blue” states. We can send this crook a message with our votes and our voice.

This Administration is one of the most corrupt in history. Everything Trump does makes him and his rich friends even richer, meanwhile working Americans are still struggling to get by.

Las Vegas tiene uno de los precios más altos de gasolina en la nación. Entre más paga por la gasolina, menos dinero le sobra para todo lo demás. La guerra que Trump inició en Irán está afectando a TODOS los nevadenses. Necesitamos que esta guerra se acabe ya.

Our veterans should never have to worry about where their next meal will come from. But Republican cuts to SNAP are putting food assistance at risk for veterans who need it. That’s unacceptable. I’m fighting to restore food programs and make sure no veteran, child, or senior goes hungry.

A military-grade weapon designed to inflict intense pain has no place in immigration enforcement, and the Pentagon has no business testing weapons for this purpose. Secretary Hegseth needs to explain why the military is using resources on American streets.

States already spend millions and devote immense resources to recover after disasters, but they can’t do it alone. Disasters will only continue to hurt our communities, and the federal government needs to be there to help. We need to work across the aisle to reform FEMA, not destroy it.

We need a free press to hold this White House accountable a whole lot more than President Trump needs a second swimming pool. Yet another potential vanity project and distraction from a president who seems focused on everything but lowering costs for American families.

Meta misled consumers about the privacy of their personal information, and now it's being held accountable. I'm proud of NM for standing up for consumers, and I'll keep fighting to give New Mexicans more control over their data and make sure Big Tech's profits don't come at the expense of privacy.

More disappointing results from Donald Trump’s economy: rising unemployment and wages that can’t keep up with skyrocketing costs. While Trump lines his own pockets, America’s working families continue to be left behind.

NO. Congress funds FEMA to respond to disasters that REQUIRE federal support. Trump's already politicized disaster relief—an unforgivable and unAmerican transgression that I don't plan on forgetting. He doesn't get to wave a magic wand and abolish FEMA. I'm fighting back.

Today, while protecting Palestinians, Brad Lander & a group of American rabbis & others were taken by the IDF. Releasing Brad isn't enough, the Israeli govt must release them all. If this is how they treat Americans, imagine how they treat Palestinians. Trump & Rubio's silence fuels this impunity.

Women are 50% of the population, but less than 0.1% NIH's budget is spent on menopause, and just 8% on women's health overall. You're not broken—the research is. I talked to Dr. Rachel Rubin and Dr. Kelly Casperson about why we need more menopause research and how my bipartisan bill would do that.

Fewer grants mean fewer resources for schools and universities to invest in education programs like mental health support and childcare for student parents. This only hurts our students, and it’s all part of Trump’s plan to abolish the Department of Education.

Wages are down. Inflation is up. Over 5 million people have lost SNAP benefits. And we’ve had more days in 2026 where gas was above $4 a gallon than any other year. While Trump is billions richer. There's a clear "winner" in Trump's America. And it isn't you.

While I am pleased Russia finally released Stephen Hubbard, he never should have been jailed in the first place. Calling the war criminal Vladimir Putin a “humanitarian” is a disgrace to the tens of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers and civilians that Putin has killed as part of his brutal war.

Trump's illegal war with Iran has cost the American people over $44 BILLION. $44 BILLION and growing daily — with no end in sight. More than 8 months and $44 billion in U.S. tax dollars later, this regime still has no clear plan or strategy to end this war.

Putin is a killer and a thug, murdering Ukrainian children, dropping bombs on neighborhoods, and tearing families apart. Calling him a humanitarian is like calling Witkoff qualified or capable of doing this job. What are we doing here?

When push comes to shove, Trump would rather you lose power than the data center companies lose a cent of profit. Clearly, this admin & FERC are not protecting consumers. Congress must pass my Power for the People Act, to ensure that your power needs are put before Big Tech's.
