Trump’s potential abuse of the Insurrection Act cries out for reform with safeguards & guardrails that I have proposed.

I joined @duckworth.senate.gov, @peters.senate.gov, and @slotkin.senate.gov to send a letter to OMB Director Russ Vought demanding OMB end its administrative review of the Brandon Road Interbasin Project. Any further delays to this project put the Great Lakes’ ecosystem and fishing industry at risk.

We were on the Senate floor today to stand up against Trump’s attacks on Colorado and to disrupt the Senate spending package that does nothing to protect NCAR. Watch my speech in full here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBtD...

Yesterday, I met with Bobbie advocates and shared my own experience navigating paid family leave, maternal health, and caregiving in this country. I look forward to working with Bobbie and others to ensure families in this country get the care they need and deserve.

Unbelievable. Troops from France, Germany, the UK, Norway, and Sweden are arriving in Greenland right now. Trump has turned our allies against us.

Price check on Trump! Trump’s reckless tariffs and chaotic agenda continues to make life more expensive for Americans and businesses alike.

I said I would tear up Trump's budget and write a new one—and that's what I made sure we did. The Senate passed 3 bills to fund everything from flood control projects to clean energy research, & more. I'm going to make sure CONGRESS decides how taxpayer funds get spent—not Trump.

First, the Pentagon kicks out reporters who reject gag rules. Now, Stars and Stripes applicants are asked how they’d advance Trump’s agenda. Access bans. Loyalty tests. This is not “merit hiring." It’s systematic censorship of military journalism.
- PM
No one should ignore these kinds of statements just because the President is delusional. We need to take it at face value. This is undemocratic and un-American. Oh, and by the way, we WILL have elections whether Trump thinks we should or not.

New in Allrecipes: Despite President Trump’s promises that he would lower grocery costs, families across America are paying higher prices at the cash register. The data is clear - costs are too high, and Trump’s actions are only making them worse. www.allrecipes.com/joint-econom...

The last thing Americans who are struggling with addiction or mental health problems needed was this chaos. RFK, Jr. owes the American people some answers as to why he did this.

I joined my colleague Senator Britt to send a letter to the CDC urging them to research the impacts of gambling on children. As sports gambling proliferates across the U.S., we must ensure we protect kids.

Donald Trump tried to withhold funding from California and other states on this basis in his first administration and lost. Our state will continue to fight the administration whenever it threatens immigrant communities, or violates the law. apnews.com/article/trum...

It took over a DECADE for Donald Trump to release a health care "plan", one entire page! And it will do absolutely NOTHING to stop your premiums from more than doubling.

With too many families struggling to afford everyday essentials like energy and health care, the President should be focused on lowering costs, not buying Greenland with $700 billion of taxpayer money.

I just introduced a bipartisan bill to ban members of Congress from trading stocks. The American people should be able to trust that their elected officials are here to work for them – not make money.

Thousands of brave American women have made countless sacrifices to keep us safe and defend our democracy. A review of women’s military “effectiveness” undertaken by Anthony Tata and Pete Hegseth can’t be credible given their own troubled personal histories. youtube.com/shorts/8jsH-...

The resignations of dedicated career prosecutors from the Minnesota U.S. Attorney's Office are a serious loss. The DOJ’s politicization of the investigation into Renee Good’s killing is doing lasting damage to our justice system.

Opportunity Starts at Home This new housing agenda is full of ideas from @SenateDems to tackle the housing affordability crisis by working to reduce rent, boost home ownership, stop predatory corporations, supercharge construction, and provide housing security for all Americans

Again and again, courts have ruled that Trump lies about ICE's actions on the ground. ICE shot and killed a mom in broad daylight—they are instigating these disturbances. There is no excuse to escalate these lies and abuse the military to defend ICE's lawlessness.

All legally-cast ballots must be counted. @markwarner.bsky.social and I are urging SCOTUS to protect vote-by-mail in an upcoming case that could lead to the disenfranchisement of millions of rural, military, and overseas voters.

If you’re in a competitive House district or a state with a Senate election, you can make a serious difference by volunteering. Even if you don’t live there, you can chip in to some of those races, which is a big help too.

I know you’ve probably heard a lot of this before, but I wanted to remind all of you to not just hang in there, but also to start thinking about how you can help make all of this happen.

And the American people are depending on us to do that because there are serious problems that are going completely unaddressed, and in some cases made worse, by this Congress and Administration. I’m talking about rising costs, health care, housing, not to mention reckless wars.

A lot of people know by now that holding Trump accountable starts with taking back the House. I would’ve said it was crazy 6 months ago, but there is a real path to taking back the Senate too — if we put in the work.
- MK
Congress is supposed to hold the executive in check, but Trump acts like a wanna-be authoritarian and gets away with it because Washington Republicans chose to roll over to protect their jobs. It’s time to put them out of a job, and that’s what 2026 is all about.
- MK
President Trump is scared. He’s scared because he knows, just like all of us do, that his free rein to do whatever he wants could end this year.
- MK
It’s easy to watch the news and feel overwhelmed or even helpless at everything going on. I need you to fight that feeling. I’m an optimist. You have to be when you strap yourself to a rocket for a living. But there’s real reason to be hopeful this year and l’ll tell you why.

Just met w/ senior officials from Denmark & Greenland. When Trump says we need Greenland for security, remember: they already allow US & NATO bases there & don’t oppose additional measures. This is a land grab by Trump. Don't be shocked if he tries to rename it Trump-land.

The President has repeatedly called the affordability crisis a ‘hoax,’ but the truth is in the numbers. Costs have gone UP. This President lied when he promised to ‘bring down prices on day one.' Instead, he is wrecking our economy.

Today we celebrate the birthday of Georgia's greatest son, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. As we honor his legacy, we must continue the fight for the just & peaceful future he dreamed of. I am reminded today that while the arc of the moral universe is long, it bends toward justice.

The people in Minneapolis are not creating chaos—Trump is. ICE is completely out of control. Trump is terrorizing an entire city as an act of political retribution. It's Minneapolis today, it could be Seattle or New York tomorrow. Speaking up matters right now.

Democrats are unveiling a new housing agenda to tackle the housing affordability crisis: —The median price of a home has increased 55% since COVID —Rent prices are up more than 30% —The median age of a 1st-time homebuyer is 40 —America is short millions of homes—increasing costs

The admin owes Congress an explanation for why they gutted the State Department and a rapid solution for this visa ban so this administration’s antics don’t wreak even more havoc on the economy. (2/2)

Trump’s 75-country visa ban is costly, cruel, and misguided, and will impact local economies across the country… and particularly so as America prepares to host the World Cup. (1/2)

We can’t lose focus on the fact that Trump and Bondi are BREAKING THE LAW by refusing to release the full Epstein Files. We passed my bill to release the files. It was signed into law—by Trump himself! We must enforce the law.

Our local law enforcement, mayors, and community leaders all agree: The best way to restore order and safety in Minnesota is for ICE to leave our streets. This Administration is escalating rather than de-escalating and it needs to stop.

A major Verizon outage yesterday affected 100,000+ Verizon users. At a time of high costs, consumers must always be automatically compensated for service disruptions, fully and completely—not just a courtesy or suggestion—and the FCC has a responsibility to require just that.
