Don’t be fooled: you can’t both claim this was simply the execution of an arrest warrant AND say the U.S. is now "running" Venezuela & grabbing its oil resources. Trump just admitted this was a clear regime-change play to enrich U.S. oil companies & his billionaire buddies.

The idea that Trump plans to now run Venezuela should strike fear in the hearts of all Americans. The American people have seen this before and paid the devastating price.

Yes, Maduro is a bad guy. But the President now says we will “run” another country of more than 28 million people for an undetermined time. How many American service members will be put in harm’s way — without even a vote in Congress?

Americans across the political spectrum must reject Trump’s plan for the U.S. to “run the country” of Venezuela. This is a disastrous plan. We have seen this show before and it did not end well.

Donald Trump’s reckless and unconstitutional operations in Venezuela—including this morning’s arrest of a foreign leader—are not about enforcing law and order. If they were, he wouldn’t hide them from Congress.

If we’re starting another endless war, with no clear national security strategy or need, count me out. Maduro is a cruel criminal dictator, but President Trump has never sought approval from Congress for war as the Constitution requires—& our military deserves. 1/

There is no reason to believe that Americans are more secure today after this morning's raid in Caracas than they were yesterday. I will not mourn Maduro's removal from power, but the Trump administration owes our country transparency and a clear strategy.

Trump and his cronies can try to dress this up, but it is an illegal act of war to replace Maduro and grab Venezuela's oil for his billionaire buddies. Full statement below:

The Trump administration is lying to Congress and ignoring our constitutionally required approval for military action. This is what dictators do. This war is not just unjustified—it is unauthorized.

Secretaries Rubio and Hegseth looked every Senator in the eye a few weeks ago and said this wasn’t about regime change. I didn’t trust them then and we see now that they blatantly lied to Congress.

It’s Southeast Colorado today — your district tomorrow. If any member from either party wants to actually deliver for their constituents, they’ll stand up and send a clear message. Congress should overturn Trump’s veto on our unanimous, bipartisan bill to finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit.

In Rochester today with Mayor Norton and Police Chief Franklin to discuss city priorities and the importance of supporting law enforcement. I’m committed to ensuring our officers have the resources, tools, and protections they need to keep our communities safe.

Let's not lose sight of the big picture: We need to fight for a country where every person — no matter where they live, or who their parents are, or how much money they make — has real opportunity.

We have to continue to fight this. Donald Trump may want to make oil spills great again, but Californians don’t.

Free speech and the right to peacefully protest are universal rights. The Iranian government’s crackdown on these protestors is unacceptable — they must allow Iranians to use their voices without fear of violence. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/01/w...

Trump’s attack on offshore wind is really an attack on our economy. He’s jacking up energy bills, firing thousands of union workers, & leaving our nation behind. We need more energy in order to bring down costs. Trump is leading us in the wrong direction.

I met with local leaders in Whatcom County today to see and discuss the damage caused by historic flooding last month. I will do everything I can in the Other Washington to help recover and rebuild. This next phase won't be easy—but together, we will get through it.

I don’t think our children should be burdened with debt because Republicans in DC decided to give billionaires another tax cut.

Growing up the son of two cops, I remember what it was like watching my mom have to figure out which bills to pay. I know what families are up against right now, and that’s why I’m focused on bringing down costs and making life affordable again for working class folks.

The Trump administration is advancing their cruel, extremist agenda by making abortion care even harder for veterans to access—with no exceptions even for serious health concerns, rape, or incest. This administration continues to fail those who served our country.

Our seniors lost nearly $5 billion to scammers in 2024. That’s devastating. And with the rise of AI, these scams are only getting more advanced. We must protect our seniors. In response, I’ve introduced legislation requiring the FBI to develop a strategy for combating scams.

I’m glad to see a serious and qualified nominee for the important role of Comptroller. Rooting out corruption, fraud and abuse is vital, and Shirley Emehelu has the experience needed to help tackle these issues head on in New Jersey. 1/3

Health care premiums have skyrocketed for millions of families at a time when Trump's taxes have raised costs on nearly everything. But this didn't have to happen. Republicans knew costs would explode. And they ignored Democrats—ignored their constituents—and LET it happen.

How long will it take MAGA DOJ to understand that there are consequences to not telling the truth? Judges may have to educate them. Then they’ll counter-attack with threats; then not investigate orchestration of the threats. Because it comes back to MAGA.

This is a lie. We blocked Trump’s troop deployment to Chicago. The Supreme Court even ruled Trump would have been breaking the law had he deployed them on our streets. I’m relieved our patriotic troops are finally heading home to their families after Trump unlawful deployment.

Welcome to 2026 courtesy of Congressional Republicans. The GOP blocked every one of our attempts to extend these tax credits, but we won’t stop working to lower costs.

Families need predictability to budget. Our economy needs stability to grow. Our democracy depends on trust to persevere. Donald Trump brought chaos into every one of these spaces, and Americans are the ones paying the price.

A powerful reflection, 5 years later, of what happened on January 6th. I remember it like it was yesterday. We must continue to be caretakers to this nation—to heal the divisiveness and brokenness in our country and democracy.

In these divided times, it's important to find common ground when we can. I led bipartisan wins last year including the TAKE IT DOWN Act to combat revenge porn & deepfakes and the Honoring Our Fallen Heroes Act for firefighters who die from job-related cancers. san.com/cc/four-time...

This project will bring water to 50,000 rural Coloradans. Farmers & ranchers are counting on the promises made by our government 60 years ago. This unanimous bill is as nonpartisan as it gets. Yet Trump always finds a way to make people suffer rather than get things done. www.cpr.org/2025/12/30/t...
