This regime is lying to you about what happened on January 6th, 2021. I was there. I saw the violent insurrection with my very eyes. Their lies will never erase the pain, terror, and damage inflicted on our democracy, our country, and those who lost loved ones.

If this reporting is true, there is a SERIOUS problem at DHS that might explain the lack of discipline we're seeing play out across the country. Law enforcement officers should be held to the highest standard of the law, and we should be vetting them thoroughly.

This isn’t just about Senator Kelly’s rights. It’s about your first amendment rights & the rights of all veterans. In America, you’re allowed to disagree with the government without the government unfairly punishing you. I hope the court moves to curb Trump Admin’s authoritarian impulses.

At last month’s Cabinet meeting, Trump publicly called Somali immigrants “garbage.” Now, his Administration is terminating Somalia’s designation for Temporary Protected Status. Does the President really think Somalia is a safe or stable place for these individuals to return? I think not.

Persistent and often dangerous staffing shortages at federal prisons nationwide cause safety concerns for BOP personnel and incarcerated individuals alike. My new, bipartisan bill will help ensure staff within our federal prisons are paid adequately for the critical work they do.

Trump and Republicans raised taxes on clean energy last year, destroying our best opportunity to hold down people's energy bills as data centers gobble up electricity. Anything he says he's doing on energy costs now is a fraud.

Wishing my Sorors of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated a happy Founders Day! Now more than ever our commitment to social activism is needed, and I’m so proud to be in this fight with Deltas on Capitol Hill who have worked so hard on behalf of the American people.

The Iranian govt's attacks on protestors are unacceptable, & as I've said before, we must support the Iranian people's fight for a better future. But bombs do not create democracies and they are not the answer. Is Trump's plan to just bomb every dictatorship in the world?

Food prices are up. Health care is more expensive. President Trump promised to lower costs on day one. Instead, his harmful policies caused prices to soar, and he isn’t doing a damn thing to fix it.

Tariffs may be a punchline to Trump, but Nevada families aren't laughing when his trade war has cost them nearly $1,000 extra on average over the past year.

It was great to get a tour of the newly renovated, historic Gafney Home last week. This energy efficient, affordable housing for older adults is a great example of New Hampshire’s ingenuity when it comes to tackling rising costs.

I’ve never had Granite Staters ask me to focus more on corporations and less on real people. But the Trump Administration continues to sell out Americans in service of corporate special interests. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/12/c...

Saddened by the passing of former Albuquerque Mayor David Rusk. He was a devoted public servant who worked tirelessly to foster a deep sense of community in Albuquerque. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones.

@duckworth.senate.gov and I introduced an amendment to the government funding bill to reverse the President’s proposed budget cut to the Chicago Harbor Lock, one of America’s busiest locks. A lock this large must have the critical resources it needs to run its operations.

This was already struck down by a federal court last month. Directly after, we visited the Aurora ICE facility to ensure they were following the order. Now, Sec. Noem has found a loophole. We’ve fought this before, we’ll fight this again. Congressional oversight is constitutionally required.

Democrats like me have always cared about justice and always will. But if we can't deliver a clear agenda that starts with opportunity and security, too many Americans will keep tuning us out.

Trump promised to bring costs down. Instead, he's signing us up for forever wars and slapping the Trump Tariff Tax on basic necessities. We can't afford President Trump's lies.

Trump claims he is an economic populist then governs as a plutocrat. He isn’t interested in cutting costs for Americans. Trump only cares about cutting taxes for CEO billionaires and slashing benefits for the vulnerable. He has no credibility on affordability.

Senate Republicans' SHAM hearing to discredit medication abortion, even though it is SAFER than Viagra, is not about science or protecting women's health—it's about their crusade to BAN abortion nationwide. WATCH ⬇️

At a time when Americans can’t afford to put food on the table, pay their rent, or afford health care, it is so sad to see this President spend taxpayer dollars on meaningless vanity projects, like naming public buildings after himself. Our legislation would stop it.

USDA's Roadless Rule has kept 45 million acres of forest wild and free from clearcutting and roadbuilding for 25 years. Now, Trump wants to undo it—putting our forests at risk. @usdagov.bsky.social @forestservice.bsky.social, listen to Americans who want to protect public lands from destruction.

Today, President Trump endorsed my bipartisan Credit Card Competition Act, which would reduce credit card swipe fees and hold down costs for Main Street merchants and their customers. Americans struggling with everyday purchases like groceries and gas need the relief this bill would provide.

Arlit Maria Martinez’s only request was to visit her son, Kevin, who was dying of cancer. ICE refused and he died later that day. This Administration has no decency nor sense of humanity. We are in contact with Arlit's family and ICE must allow her to attend her son’s service.

These career public servants have served our state through multiple tragedies and critical investigations. We cannot allow prosecutions to be driven by politics. The family and loved ones of Renee Good deserve justice, not political attacks.

Trump is openly using the Oval Office to threaten anyone who speaks out against him. This language should be a warning sign for us all that Trump has no regard for our democracy.

🚨BIG NEWS: This is the moment the Senate passed my bill to combat nonconsensual, sexually-explicit deepfakes. Grok is out of control. AI can’t be unregulated. I teamed up with @ocasio-cortez.house.gov to stand up for victims who’ve had their autonomy taken from them by AI. Let’s get it done.

There has been an alarming rise in settler attacks on Palestinians—more than 840 in 2025. While we continue to work toward a lasting peace, we must also work to reinstate accountability for extremist settlers and end violence against Palestinians.

Zero accountability. Zero remorse. Just a disgusting rant doubling down on defending ICE after an agent killed a mom in cold blood. ICE did not make Chicago safer. It is not making Minnesota safer.

Just a reminder that 99% of the Epstein files are still being held up by the DOJ in direct violation of the law. That’s not a delay, it’s a cover-up. Release all the files.

ICE murdered Renee Good just blocks away from where police murdered George Floyd. @ayannapressley.bsky.social and I are introducing the Qualified Immunity Abolition Act to hold ICE agents and all federal law enforcement officers accountable. We need justice. Abolish qualified immunity now.
