Secretary Hegseth testified that President Trump's war with Iran has already cost $37.5 billion. We could've extended ACA health care discounts to more than 21 million people for an entire year for less money than we've spent in five months of war.

From Ebola and hantavirus to measles & cyclospora, Trump & DOGE’s destruction of USAID has deeply undermined our ability to respond to disease outbreaks. Their short-sighted cuts are putting lives at risk, & Congress must fight back against the Trump Administration’s assault on our public health.

Mifepristone is safe & effective. But the absurd legal challenge to restrict access to the most common form of medication abortion is back in court, so I'm leading Senate Dems on an amicus brief with one message: Put science before politics. Don’t restrict access to mifepristone.

I asked Secretary Rollins why she kicked over 160,000 hungry New Yorkers off food assistance. Her response? She brought up diesel prices, which are HIGHER now than when Trump took office.

“Secretary of State Marco Rubio said today that “new ideas” would be needed to bring an end to Russia’s war in Ukraine.” New idea: stop propping up war criminal Putin.

The top 1% owns as much wealth as our entire middle class, while too many Americans who've done everything right still can't afford a home. This isn't a coincidence — it was planned. We fix it by knocking more doors, making more calls, and winning back our power this November.

The CDC says more than 11,500 suspected cases of cyclosporiasis have been reported in 41 states. I’ve called on the CDC and FDA to restore their critical food safety programs so we can detect outbreaks quickly, identify their source, and keep families safe.

Haitian TPS holders contribute to our nation every day. Republicans’ decision to jeopardize their protections in the United States is cruel, unnecessary, and will only subject these families to fear and the threat of violence upon their return to Haiti.

This bill is a joke. It’s full of loopholes that let politicians continue to get rich off their positions. Want to clean up corruption? My bill bans stock trading across all three branches and goes even further. We don’t have to settle for performance. We can see through it and we can do better.

And it’s particularly petty for the President to keep punishing our Canadian neighbors the week we should be finally celebrating the opening of the Gordie Howe bridge — something Democrats and Republicans have roundly supported for decades.

The President’s 50% tariff on 500 Canadian goods, including hockey sticks and milk, does nothing to help American families. It just substitutes serious trade policy for pettiness.

Canada is one of America’s most critical allies. Michiganders know that better than anyone — we share bonds of family, culture, commerce and closely intertwined supply chains.

Senate Democrats pointed out the rampant corruption, abuse, and pay-to-play behavior that would continue at Trump's DOJ under Todd Blanche. It could not be clearer: Todd Blanche will be an attorney for Donald Trump, NOT for the American people. We cannot confirm his nomination.

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.

Trump claimed he "totally destroyed" Iran's military months ago. Now he is threatening war crimes that will put more of our servicemembers at risk. When will Republicans say enough? This is weak and desperate leadership.

$37 billion of your tax dollars, folks. We could’ve used that money to lower your health care costs, or make child care more affordable, or lower the cost of living. Instead, it was spent on an illegal war that’s gotten us nothing but higher costs.

The link between climate change and drought is undeniable. New research shows the 2026 Western snow drought was about four times more likely because of climate change. We need to work together to address this existential crisis. www.denverpost.com/2026/07/22/c...

Trump and Rubio are reckless hypocrites. They want to allow Saudi Arabia to develop nuclear technologies while starting a war with Iran under the guise of preventing an Iranian nuclear bomb. This deal will make us all less safe. We must stop a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.

The President has been doing everything in his power to convince Americans that our elections aren’t valid. It’s not going to work, but we need to be clear-eyed about what he is doing.

These unlawful and corrupt terminations underscore that Trump and RFK Jr. do not care about the quality of your health care. HHS must abide by bipartisan law and allocate this funding immediately.

Trump's HHS continues its assault on healthcare – this time by illegally dismantling the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality and slashing tens of millions in research grants, including important research being done here in Colorado.

The Iran War never should have started, and the President hasn't achieved any of the goals he set out. We have a more hardline regime, we haven't dealt with their nuclear program and now the Strait is a pawn in this war—raising costs on American families. This war needs to end.

Trump has called the Iran War a "skirmish" & boasted that "only" 18 servicemembers have lost their lives. That is disgraceful. The American people & the families of the fallen are not keeping score - they are grieving. This president is incapable of honoring their sacrifices.
