Trump’s tariffs were ruled illegal – and he’s still looking for new ways to bring them back and spike your costs. Even when the Supreme Court tries to intervene, he will stop at nothing to raise Americans’ prices.

Donald Trump and his Education Secretary are hellbent on illegally abolishing the Education Department and making our public education system worse. Students and families deserve better. We need a full investigation into this administration's attempts to sabotage our schools.

Section 702 is an important tool for keeping our nation safe from foreign threats. But it’s been used instead for warrantless spying on Americans. That’s unacceptable. We just introduced a bipartisan bill to reauthorize and reform it to protect national security AND civil liberties.

Critical minerals are the foundation of essential products and are used in everything from fighter jets to iPhones. It’s important that we work to bolster America’s domestic supply, and my SECURE Minerals Act would do just that ⬇️

The American people don’t want another war in the Middle East. I don’t either. Negotiation and diplomacy are how we stop Iran’s nuclear program, not a war that puts more American troops at risk. www.axios.com/2026/02/18/i...

Advocates from towns surrounding the Roxbury warehouse are coming together to make one thing clear: nobody wants a private detention facility in their community. I will work with you to fight this ICE invasion into your backyard.

If the Italy trip wasn’t personal travel… does that mean he’s partying with athletes on the taxpayer dime? Shouldn’t the Director of the FBI be a little more focused on urgent priorities, like sex trafficking or Nancy Guthrie’s kidnapping?

This Administration has collected an estimated $175 billion in illegal tariffs. We’re fighting to get every penny back. Our bill requires a FULL refund with interest. It’s time to return this money to working Americans and small businesses.

The MAGA trifecta cover-up of report on Trump’s crimes: on one “side,” the MAGA DOJ; on the other “side,” defendant Donald J. Trump; presiding, a MAGA Trump judge. So much for the “adversary system.”

Republicans literally cut Medicaid so that giant corporations could pay less in taxes than a teacher or firefighter. That’s not fair, and it’s not fiscally responsible either. Our taxpayer dollars SHOULD be going toward things like health care—not tax breaks for billionaires.

Director Lyons looked me in the eyes and said ICE was receiving proper training. Now a whistleblower says officials are lying about how much training new recruits actually get. They’re cutting corners and covering up. We need real answers and accountability. www.cbsnews.com/news/ice-whi...

Fire mismanagement is life-or-death and risks billions in taxpayer dollars. DOGE’s mismanagement has already cost thousands of jobs at the Bureau of Land Management. We need proof that consolidating federal firefighting won’t make Americans less safe.

YMCA’s history is tied to our nation’s history, and even 175 years later, it will be a piece of our nation’s future. I’m joining my colleagues today to announce a bipartisan resolution to celebrate the long and storied history of the YMCA and the work it does to support American communities.

The American people have foot the bill for President Trump’s trade war—and, while Secretary Bessent might not think so, they deserve a refund. I joined my colleagues in introducing a new bill to do just that. The President shouldn't stand in the way of refunds for everyday Americans.

Marylanders don't want Trump’s ICE on our streets or their facilities in our backyards. A few weeks ago, I joined hundreds in Washington Co to say that loud & clear. I'm glad to see @oagmaryland.bsky.social is acting to block ICE’s construction of a detention center in Washington County.

I’m proud to bring Dani Bensky, New Yorker and survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse, as my guest to the State of the Union to demand the truth. Dani has turned unimaginable pain into unrelenting advocacy. Survivors deserve justice. Trump must end the cover-up and release the full Epstein files—NOW.

The money this administration made from Trump's illegal tariffs is YOUR money. That's why I co-sponsored legislation to refund the full $175 billion in tariff revenue back to the American people. It belongs to your family, your businesses, and your community.

Today, I filed an amicus brief to combat Visa and Mastercard’s attempts to hollow out the Durbin Amendment, which prevents exorbitant debit interchange fees. Consumers deserve a debit card system that is affordable and fair, and we cannot allow Wall Street to add extra costs and line their pockets.

I’ve been to Trump’s State of the Unions before and really don’t need to go again. He uses his speeches to pillory his political enemies and spread lies – not to mention they're long and boring.

High housing costs hit everyone – renters, first-time buyers, and growing families who need a bigger home. But they hit working families hardest. Any solution worth pursuing has to start there.

Higher prices and more uncertainty, with the American people paying the price. Instead of working to lower costs for Americans, the Administration is doubling down and continuing to push more tariffs — hurting our small businesses, farmers, and our economy in the process.

Remember Donald Trump's promise to "drain the swamp"? Well, it looks like he's embraced the swamp instead. There are now former lobbyists in senior roles all over his administration who could be helping their former clients. I'm calling for an investigation.

Trump’s chaotic tariff policies have already been rebuked by Democrats, Republicans, and even the Supreme Court. They are a tax on Americans, driving prices higher for families. @democrats.senate.gov will block any attempt to extend Trump’s tariffs when they expire this summer.

You won’t find cleaner waters than the Boundary Waters. Think endless streams of water filled with bass, walleye, trout and northern pike – total wilderness, only accessible by canoe. Why would we let a Chilean mining company pollute these public lands, take our minerals and ship them off to China?

I will vote NO on Trump’s tariffs when they come up for a vote in the Senate. Why on earth would I support a new 15% tax on virtually everything you buy? Things are expensive enough to begin with.
