Last week, the U.S. Attorney for D.C. asked to interview me because of a 90-second video that President Trump didn't like. The intimidation *is the point*. And it’s not going to work. Watch my full response. youtube.com/shorts/rM4PY...

Kicking off Senate Republicans' sham hearing on medication abortion by making absolutely clear: MIFEPRISTONE IS SAFE AND EFFECTIVE. This hearing is not about science. It's about Republicans trying to ban abortion nationwide.

Millions of Americans saw premiums double & triple because Republicans for months blocked the extension of the health care credits. We offered negotiations—they said no. 17 House Republicans joined Democrats to pass a 3-year extension. The Senate needs to pass this now.

Here’s my question for Republicans in Congress: How can you explain to Americans that you voted to double or triple the cost of their health insurance?

Jon Ossoff has been on the front lines of our fight to protect health care and lower costs. We need to keep him in the Senate. Let's reelect @ossoff.bsky.social and flip the Senate blue this November!

History shows what happens when politicians try to influence interest rates: more inflation, higher prices, and more economic uncertainty. The Trump Administration should focus on policies that will actually lower costs, not risking the independence of the Federal Reserve.

The military junta in Myanmar has bombed villages, killed thousands of its own people & displaced millions. Secretary Rubio & the Admin need to condemn these horrors & call out these staged “elections” for what they are: a farce meant to legitimize the junta’s cruelty & power.

Americans want a president focused on bringing down energy, health care, and grocery costs, and who gets matters right at home. How can Trump run the Venezuelan economy when he can't even manage our own?

We must ban members of Congress from buying, owning and selling stocks. But House Republicans' new bill fails to do that — lawmakers can continue to own and sell stocks. It’s absurd and an insult to people’s intelligence. Stop playing games. Ban congressional stock trading.

Joe Thompson and the 5 other Minnesota prosecutors who resigned are incredible public servants who led major investigations into fraud, sex trafficking, and missing people. The DOJ’s politicization of our justice system has resulted in a real loss for Minnesota and for public safety.

"Let China come in," he said. President Trump wants to open the door to foreign adversaries like China who will undercut our automakers and pose a major national security risk. Michigan companies and workers should be building the future of the auto industry.

I have exactly zero intention of letting Donald Trump and Russ Vought decide how taxpayer dollars get spent. I am fighting to make sure Congress does its job to pass funding bills so the American PEOPLE, through their representatives, decide where our money goes—NOT Trump.

Politicians in both parties have told Michigan workers for 30 years that cooperation with the Chinese Communist Party will mean more jobs and higher paychecks. But we know what happens in reality because we've lived it: millions of our manufacturing jobs shipped overseas. Ban Chinese cars.

Let's be clear: this is a direct result of Republicans REFUSING to extend the ACA tax credits. The Senate could vote ANY DAY to extend them and help bring down your health care costs, but Leader Thune is refusing.

We do not have kings or dictators in America. These monuments belong to the people. Our bill would prevent Trump, or any other president, from using our public monuments to glorify & worship themselves.

Grocery prices are still going up for American families. And there is nothing in Venezuela or Greenland that is going to change that. How about focusing closer to home?

In case you missed it: Senate Democrats tried to stop a Trump Administration rule from raising health care costs, and Republicans blocked us. The folks stuck paying the price will be working families.

We’re days away from the final day to enroll for 2026 health care coverage on healthcare.gov, and instead of stopping Americans’ premiums from skyrocketing, my Senate Republican colleagues are choosing to jack up costs for families already struggling to get by.

I met with Chinese Ambassador Xie Feng to discuss many shared interests and areas of disagreement between the U.S. and China. I commend Ambassador Xie for his willingness to discuss these issues with me, and I hope China can help bring an end to the war in Ukraine and ease tensions in the SCS.

It is genuinely insane to see Republicans give credence to Trump's DELUSION that America should take over Greenland. We're talking about a NATO ally! Every member of Congress should have no problem SHUTTING THIS DOWN!

Giant corporations are donating millions to Donald Trump's ballroom vanity project while they have business in front of his administration. Does that sound right to you? I pressed for more information — and we just got some answers.

America could restore its leadership on human rights and right past wrongs. Instead, the Trump Administration is expanding Guantánamo Bay to unjustly and inhumanely detain migrants. We have to close it once and for all.

The first numbers are in. Over 1 million fewer people have signed up for insurance on the ACA than at this time last year. This is Trump's premium hikes at work. In the wealthiest nation on earth, millions are being forced to go without health care. It's a moral tragedy.

Americans are struggling with the high cost of groceries, housing, child care, and everything in between. Meanwhile, instead of focusing on fulfilling his promises to bolster the economy and bring prices down, Trump is more interested in waging illegal wars around the world.

This Republican Congress needs to decide if they support DHS agents brutalizing an innocent American teenager. This kind of behavior is heinous—and it sure doesn't seem like it's uncommon. There MUST be serious accountability for ICE and CBP. This is NOT immigration enforcement.
