After December's atmospheric river & flooding, WA was hit with 73 landslides. I introduced the National Landslide Preparedness Act & helped it pass the Senate this week. Supporting early warning systems, risk mapping, & real time information will keep communities safe. komonews.com/news/local/l...

My bipartisan War Powers Resolution has advanced in the Senate—meaning America will finally see a public debate on whether we should be engaging in a war in Venezuela. Next week, every senator will go on the record about whether our sons and daughters should be sent to war.

Servicemembers’ parents are calling me worried – they don’t want their kids deployed abroad in a conflict with no clear objectives or end. What is the plan here? Why don’t we have any answers for them?

These international orgs provide basic health care for women & children, advance democracy, and address extreme weather events. Trump’s withdrawal allows our adversaries like China to fill the vacuum and damages our interests around the world. How does this make America great again?

This is D.C. at its worst. Every single U.S. House member supported this bill to bring clean water to Southeastern CO before Christmas — Democrats & Republicans. But they refused to stick to their guns & override Trump’s retaliatory veto. Rural Colorado is paying the price for these political games.

Kristi Noem has had a disgraceful tenure marked by chaos, brutality, and rampant corruption. She should resign or be fired immediately. The question for the American people is, will this Republican-led Congress join Democrats in pushing for any accountability?

Wisconsin farmers wouldn’t need a bailout if Trump didn’t put their livelihoods on the line with his reckless trade war. The worst part is, his bailout is just a Band-Aid on a bullet wound for our farmers. www.jsonline.com/story/news/p...

If Trump and Vance were truly confident in their (false) narrative around the ICE killing in Minneapolis, they’d allow a joint investigation with state law enforcement.

Venezuela is about money. It's a total smash and grab. As Americans get poorer, Trump stays focused on lining the pockets of billionaires.

First, they said it was about stopping illegal drugs. Now, they say it is about starting oil deliveries to the U.S. In order to create a presidential slush fund. Same corrupt regime in Venezuela. And at home.

A horrific act of gun violence took six innocent lives and wounded @gabbygiffords.bsky.social 15 years ago. We honor those we lost and uplift powerful voices like Gabby’s for change. Her courage inspires me every day and I’m proud to fight alongside her and millions of Americans to end gun violence.

President Trump's actions in Venezuela have set a dangerous precedent. It's certainly not worth U.S. blood to commandeer oil that is not going to lower prices at the pump. My hope is Republicans will continue to join Democrats in reasserting the role of Congress.

By now you've probably seen the tragic video of an ICE agent shooting a Minnesota woman as she tried to drive away. The agent responsible for this tragedy must be brought to justice, and it's time for Secretary Noem to resign.

Donald Trump is President of, by, and for Wall Street. Megabank CEOs are cashing in on his deregulation to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. Meanwhile, families are struggling with overdraft fees, credit card bills, auto loan payments, and more. It's rigged.

Southeastern Coloradans have fought for generations for access to clean water. But, President Trump used the first veto of his second term to stop my bipartisan bill to help provide the clean water they were promised, as further retribution against Colorado. [1/2]

First, they lied about what we saw on video when ICE killed Renee Good. Now, they're politicizing the investigation by freezing out Minnesota authorities, so the full truth may never see the light of day. They are breaking our country. We must continue demanding accountability.

BIG: 5 Republicans voted with Democrats to advance the war powers resolution and say HELL NO to Trump trampling the Constitution to attack Venezuela. This was the discharge petition; we’ll have another vote to pass it. I’ll keep you posted. We’re fighting like hell to get this done.

Quantum computing is the future, but to remain at the forefront we must invest in our quantum research centers and give scientists the resources they need. I cosponsored the bipartisan National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act to ensure the U.S. continues to lead the quantum revolution.

President Trump is ignoring the problems he has caused in our OWN country, all to start a war NO ONE asked for in Venezuela with no legitimate justification, no concern for the servicemembers being put in harm’s way, and absolutely NO long-term strategy.

15 years ago today, my friend Gabby was shot in a horrific act of political violence that killed six people. I applaud Gabby and Mark for their resilience and leadership in gun violence prevention advocacy.

I loved attending the 2026 Go-Go Awards, celebrating 50 years of Go-Go. I grew up on Go-Go music - part of the fabric of our DMV culture. I was proud to celebrate the woman who constantly celebrates others, a champion of Go-Go, the Queen of Media, Ms. Cathy Hughes!

The House will vote today on overriding President Trump’s veto of our bipartisan, unanimous Arkansas Valley Conduit bill. Rural water projects shouldn’t be used as political weapons. Congress must stand up to Trump’s intimidation and override this veto.

This is something myself and other Democrats have been calling for for years. So far all the President has done is tweet. We'll see if this admin actually has the guts to put working people over Wall Street.

I just voted to move forward @kaine.senate.gov resolution to stop Trump’s illegal war in Venezuela. Republicans blocked it in November, but the truth is out. It’s Venezuela today and it could be Cuba or Greenland tomorrow. We must draw the line. No more wars for oil. youtube.com/shorts/9Vvzi...

The FBI must work with the professionals at the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation of the shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE officer yesterday. This has to be about justice, not politics.

NEW: The Senate advanced a bipartisan resolution to block further military action in Venezuela unless authorized by Congress. Our message is clear: Trump cannot continue to march us into another forever war with no end state. Focus on running America.

There's no question that many international institutions are no longer working as intended, or long past time for updating. However, withdrawing from them en masse eliminates our ability to reform them, and cedes ground to competitors... 1/2

A woman was shot dead on camera and Trump’s ICE is launching a full scale coverup. Nobody is above the law. Federal agents who break the law in Minnesota, Oregon or anywhere else, must be prosecuted.

The fact that ICE officers prevented a doctor from rendering aid after fatally shooting an innocent woman is sick beyond measure. As we press for accountability, it is important that all of us spread the facts of this brutal and unjustified killing far and wide.

Senate Democrats want to lower your costs and tackle the affordability crisis. Senate Republicans want to aid and abet Donald Trump’s adventurism in Venezuela and risk yet another endless war. The contrast is clear – and the American people are with us.

Instead of giving Congress a heads up that he ordered U.S. troops to attack Venezuela and seize its president, Donald Trump tipped off oil companies. That tells you everything you need to know about who Donald Trump works for.

Secretary Noem has dodged testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee for months. It’s caused frustration... and not just from Democrats. It’s time for Judiciary Republicans to work with us—and issue a bipartisan subpoena.

I just voted for the bipartisan bill to prevent President Trump from continuing his war in Venezuela without authorization from Congress. In an unexpected move 5 Republicans joined us to move this forward. We need to lower costs in America, not try to “run” another country.

The Constitution explicitly gives Congress the power to declare war for a reason, that's why I voted 'yes' on today's war powers resolution. It's time my colleagues started taking this president at his word and acting before he recklessly drags us into war.

The video of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis is incredibly disturbing. A full and impartial investigation is urgently needed. My thoughts are with Renee Good's family. Our government should not be deploying ICE in ways that make our neighborhoods and communities less safe.

Five Republicans joined with Senate Democrats today to take a step forward in checking President Trump's unlawful actions in Venezuela - but we need everyone to stand up and use your voice to demand the Senate assert our Constitutional authority over the use of military force.

JUST NOW: The Senate advanced @kaine.senate.gov and my bipartisan war powers resolution, which would block the Trump administration’s use of the U.S. armed forces to engage in hostilities within or against Venezuela unless authorized by Congress.
