Met with the Chemical Safety Board to get an update on its work following the explosion in Longview. I will keep pushing for answers and accountability following the tragedy at the Nippon plant. The people of Washington state deserve nothing less.

This is why corporate America sought policy guidance about climate risk, which prompted the fake “anti-ESG” response from fossil fuel’s denial apparatus. The corporate sector caved at first, but climate risk is real, and so is fiduciary liability.

A reported 1.5 million children have lost SNAP food assistance since the Republican budget bill became law. Letting kids go hungry while the President builds himself a ballroom is completely unacceptable. https://ow.ly/zCHv50Zrp3X

Good news – Virginia just ranked #3 in the nation for business. Even in the face of reckless tariffs, DOGE cuts to our federal workforce, and foolish war with Iran, Virginia stays resilient.

Turning our democratic process into a casino, on a platform advised by the President's son, with an Administration failing to adequately crack down on insider trading - what could go wrong?

President Trump's nutrition cuts have now kicked more than 1.5 million children off food assistance. Trump is taking food away from children to pay for massive tax cuts to his billionaire friends.

The President's war with Iran is such a fiasco that he's now back to threatening to commit war crimes. This is wrong and must stop. Congress needs to end this war, not rubber stamp a $1.5 trillion military budget.

The only thing this will do is make things more expensive for Nevadans and hurt our hospitality workers here at home by decreasing tourism from Canada. Donald Trump couldn't care less about hardworking families.

Private prison companies are receiving billions of taxpayer dollars to carry out Trump’s cruel immigration agenda, and they're spending that money on employees who allegedly shot an American protestor. This system needs real reform and oversight.

Secretary Hegseth said ships should be able to pass through the Strait of Hormuz freely and without tolls. Then Trump insisted the United States SHOULD charge a 20% toll for every ship passing through the strait. I asked him how he squared that contradiction. He couldn't.

This president says we can't afford health care. Can't afford child care. Can't afford housing. But somehow—we can always afford another war. No price tag on that. Absolutely not. I'm refusing to rubber-stamp Trump's outrageous request to bankroll his war with Iran.

President Trump promised to lower costs. Instead, he is weakening the energy efficiency standards and the tax cuts that help families keep their energy use and energy bills down. Americans deserve better than a President who makes life more expensive. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/21/c...
