We’ve been preparing for months to stop unconstitutional, corrupt schemes just like this one. We’re taking nothing for granted—and we’ll be ready to see and beat these ghouls in court.

Deranged. Delusional. And soon to be defeated. Calling millions of Americans collateral damage in his illegal war that nobody asked for takes a special kind of depravity, the kind only a man as weak and feeble as Donald Trump could sink to.

Trump must return this money to the American people, and there must be a full investigation into this gross waste and abuse of taxpayer dollars.
- CS
First, Trump steals money from taxpayers to fund his propaganda. Then, he illegally coordinates with a Super PAC to keep the propaganda going. And to top it all off, he won’t reimburse taxpayers for the money he stole. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

I am demanding an investigation into this misuse of taxpayer funds, the preservation of all records related to it, and will be filing a complaint with the FEC about Trump’s illegal coordination with the MAGA Inc. Super PAC as he attempts to pivot from one illegal act to another.
- CS
Donald Trump’s ridiculous, corrupt propaganda ads are straight out of Putin and Kim Jong Un’s playbook. As he guts Medicaid, SNAP, and cancer research funding, he somehow finds millions of taxpayer dollars to air blatantly political ads.

We cannot allow this company to continue to operate in the shadows. No one in New York or anywhere in America should give up their privacy just by stepping outside.

For years, Flock has pointed its lens at New Yorkers. Now it's time to turn the lens around and zoom in on Flock. Flock must delete personal data of American citizens without criminal connections and answer questions about the mountains of personal data they've already stockpiled.

This election belongs to the American people, not Donald Trump. Because of our efforts, we’re more prepared than ever to handle whatever he throws our way and ensure every eligible American citizen has their voice heard.

For months, I’ve been leading Democratic senators, legal experts, and election officials in preparing for all scenarios: ICE/National Guard deployments to polling sites, AI deepfakes claiming election fraud, ballot seizures by federal officials, and so much more.

Trump has given up on winning over the electorate, so he’s trying to silence it. In November, that electorate will send him a resounding message of defeat once and for all.

Donald Trump has waged an all-out war on free and fair elections in the United States. He’s tried to disenfranchise millions of Americans, kill vote-by-mail, and make it harder for people to make their voices heard in their democracy. We have defeated him at every turn.

We told Republicans that the SAVE Act would never happen. It didn’t. Senate Democrats killed the SAVE Act in Congress.
- CS
The SAVE Act will NEVER become law in the United States of America. Republicans tried to jam through Trump’s SAVE Act: the most devious anti-voting rights legislation ever dreamed up to purge millions of voters from the rolls.

Donald Trump will stop at nothing to rip insurance away from as many people as possible. @ocasio-cortez.house.gov and I have a plan to beat him.

NEWS: I am proud to introduce the Restoring Essential Plan Coverage Act with @ocasio-cortez.house.gov. This bill would reverse Donald Trump's funding cuts to the NY Essential Plan and restore health care coverage for hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers:

The Trump administration – empowered by his feckless Republican majorities in Congress – has been a catastrophe for working families everywhere.

Twenty months ago, Republicans won control of Washington on a promise to bring down costs, make government more efficient, and end senseless wars. But over the past two years, Republicans betrayed the American people on every single one of those promises.

50 years of making access to health care depend on how much money you have. Health care must not be a privilege for people who can afford it.
- CS
Today the Hyde Amendment turns 50 years old. 50 years of denying critical abortion care to people who can’t afford it. 50 years of forcing people to choose between paying for health care and paying for rent, food, child care, or other necessities.

She had the courage to come forward. No survivor should have to summon that courage — and then fight the system to make it respond.
- CS
There must now be a truly independent and exhaustive investigation — not only into what happened, but into how this case was handled from the moment she came forward. Every fact must be uncovered. Every failure must be examined. Wherever wrongdoing occurred, there must be accountability.

It is incumbent upon all of us – elected officials, university leaders, faculty, and students – to build campus communities where sexual violence is never tolerated, minimized, or ignored.
- CS
What she reported demanded urgency, seriousness, and an unflinching pursuit of the truth from the very beginning. Sexual assault remains far too common on college campuses across America, and the culture of silence and complicity that allows it to persist must be confronted.
- CS
The allegations of sexual assault and rape at Cornell University are horrifying and deserve a thorough investigation that leaves no stone unturned. It took extraordinary courage for this young woman to come forward to university administrators and police.

There’s been a real effort to ban members of Congress from trading stocks and profiting off insider information—which I’ve supported for years. This Republican bill, however, has no reform, no accountability, and no substance, and STILL allows members to own and sell stocks.

Gas is nearly $4.50 a gallon, so what’s Trump’s answer? Let automakers build less efficient cars—meaning your family has to make more trips to the pump and pay even more to get to work. Everything he does is at your expense.

Trump is the most corrupt, out of touch President in our nation’s history. Senate Democrats will pursue every avenue to ensure that these funds are distributed as the law demands.

Donald Trump is illegally stealing $810 million from programs that support education, small business, and clean air. All while tripling his own net worth and spending billions more on ballrooms, reflecting pools, and an illegal war nobody asked for.

NEWS: The Senate GOP just blocked our resolution to stop Trump from further sabotaging the Affordable Care Act. Trump and Republicans own every closed hospital, every person without insurance and every skyrocketing premium that follows.
- CS
Their bill still allows Members of Congress and President Trump to own and sell stocks, and it's loaded with voting restriction provisions. Not to mention, Trump has traded more stocks than all of Congress combined since his term began. It's designed to hide insider trading—not stop it.
- CS
Republicans do not care about reining in insider trading.

Remember when Trump said his war in Iran would last only four to five weeks? We’re now in month EIGHT, and the American people and our troops are paying the price. Last week, the Senate GOP had the chance to vote to end this illegal war, and instead voted to keep it going. They are complicit.

Trump just gutted nearly $1B in funding for kids, K-12, small businesses, & health and clean-air research Billions for his vanity projects? No problem Programs that help Americans? Apparently, that’s too far We will fight these illegal cuts. We will not let Trump rob the American people blind.

Another one of Trump’s corruption schemes to abuse American tax dollars for his own benefit. This is a violation of what a democracy is supposed to look like. The corruption is endless.

He says this with a straight face as gas reaches $4.50/gal, diesel reaches $6.50/gal, mortgage rates soar over 7%, grocery costs are rising, and Americans’ sentiments towards the economy are the lowest they’ve been since the Great Recession.

Gateway is ALL SYSTEMS GO! After repeatedly beating Donald Trump in his attempts to shut off federal funding for Gateway, we finally began boring the Hudson River Tunnel, the first new tunnel under the Hudson in over 100 years.

Donald Trump’s agenda has failed. His attempts to cheat will fail. And the voters will hold him accountable for all of it in November.

The MAGA SCOTUS strikes again, putting its thumb on the scale for Trump’s election-rigging agenda Elon Musk’s DOGE-overhauled SAVE database is ridden with errors. With this decision, thousands of American voters could be wrongly stripped from voter rolls & prevented from voting this election season

You can tell Trump’s desperate, repressive media ban is flagrantly unconstitutional when it gets blocked by a judge he appointed. No president should use censorship to escape accountability, deprive Americans of the truth, and take our country down the path to authoritarianism.
