This is disgusting. Social media companies must be held accountable for these AI-generated images — which largely target women and children. Americans shouldn’t have to fear fake, sexualized images produced by bullies and pedophiles.

Yet another tired re-run of Russ Vought's corrupt playbook. He's threatening blue states in a naked act of political retribution. No one should be intimidated. Vought and Trump can kick rocks. This will not stand.

He said they’d go after the “worst of the worst.” Lower grocery costs on day one. Release the Epstein files. End forever wars. Promises made. Promises broken.

The Constitution and the law are clear: ICE must allow anyone they detain access to legal counsel. But that is not happening—including for at least one detained U.S. citizen. ICE must comply with the law and allow access to attorneys. This is not optional.

Donald Trump ran on lowering costs, but has spent his first year firing up trade wars that make all of our costs go way, way up.

As DHS rapidly deploys new surveillance tools, such as facial recognition technology, the Trump administration is stonewalling my congressional oversight. Unacceptable. The public deserves answers about Trump’s surveillance state.

53 years ago, Roe v. Wade affirmed a fundamental truth: women deserve the freedom to make their own health care decisions. That right was ripped away in 2022, but we must keep fighting to ensure women are free & equal citizens in this country.

After using military force in Venezuela without a plan for replacing the regime, the country is still run by Maduro’s henchmen. Now the president has promised the Iranian people that he will come to their aid, but without a plan for doing so that doesn’t mire us down in another endless war. 🧵

As we adapt to the climate crisis, funding from my National Coastal Resilience Fund will help strengthen infrastructure for communities like Johnston and New Shoreham facing frequent floods. Glad to announce ~$1.2M in funding to further resiliency initiatives across the state.

On the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade, all Americans should have the freedom to make their own healthcare decisions. Instead, families are forced into impossible choices and doctors are threatened with criminal prosecution for following medical guidance. 1/2

Republicans in the Senate blocked our resolution to reclaim Congress's power to declare war and rein in Trump's illegal strikes in Venezuela because they're more interested in bending the knee to an authoritarian strongman than carrying out their oaths. Disgraceful.

53 years after Roe v. Wade and Republicans are as committed as ever to ripping away a woman's right to make her own decisions about her body and her life. We cannot let them win—I won’t let them win. We must keep speaking out and using our voices to fight back.

If Trump tries to withhold federal funds for Delaware in an attempt to force unpopular and far-right policies on our state, he will lose in court again. If he's actually interested in keeping Delaware safe, he could return funds to local police departments that DOJ has been withholding for a year.

This is Liam Ramos. He is 5 years old. ICE snatched him and his father on the way home from school, then used him as bait to target his family. A family who followed the rules. A child as bait. Their cruelty knows no end.

A secret memo allowing federal agents to invade Americans' homes without a warrant would be a historic violation of the Constitution and further justification for the immediate removal of Kristi Noem.

This is horrifying beyond belief. No one in their right mind can see this and think it is ok. ICE is out of control. Don't let anyone look away and remind everyone that this Republican Congress could put a stop to this TODAY.

Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress gave $30 billion to ICE. You know what also would have cost $30 billion? Extending those tax credits to help people afford health care this year. We should repeal Trump’s money for ICE and lower costs instead.

A U.S. citizen dragged out of his home, barely clothed, into the cold. A 5-year-old detained on his way home from preschool. This is the reality of what ICE is doing with their $75 billion budget. Wouldn’t this be better spent on health care?

The House just unanimously passed legislation I authored to repeal a last-minute provision that lets senators cash in—up to $500,000—for legally obtained phone records. It’s a wrong-headed cash grab. The Senate needs to end it.

Fifty-three years after Roe v. Wade, politicians are still trying to control the most personal medical decisions Americans make. That’s why Arizona voters said enough in 2024 and enshrined reproductive freedom in our constitution.

Last year, Trump proposed big cuts to Chesapeake Bay clean up & restoration. Despite these threats, in the bill that passed Congress last week, we secured a record $93M for the Bay Program & restored funding for other critical programs that support the Bay. A win for Maryland.

Today the House is voting on the ICE funding bill. It doesn’t put meaningful constraints on ICE and I cannot support it. ICE’s funding was dramatically increased by the Republican bill last summer so they are now bigger than the FBI.

The Trump administration is threatening the jobs and livelihoods of Sikh drivers under the false claim it will make our roads safer. It won’t. They are far less likely to be in an accident than other drivers. In Bakersfield, I sat down with a group of Sikh truckers to hear their concerns.

American citizens do not need to “prove” their identity to ICE agents to avoid arrest and detention. Unconstitutional.
