This is going to expose children to diseases like meningitis, RSV, and hepatitis. RFK Jr.’s conspiracy theories are putting American children’s health at risk.

While you may be hearing a lot about what Donald Trump is doing in other countries, let’s focus on what he’s doing HERE at home: His CDC removed lifesaving vaccines from the recommended schedule for kids.

President Trump continues to use the federal government as an arsenal to deploy against political adversaries. He doesn’t care that his actions will disrupt our economy and hurt working families. Americans want lower prices, not score settling.

Today marks 25 years of the Roadless Rule. It’s an extremely popular conservation measure that protects many of your favorite hunting spots, hiking trails, biking routes, and fishing streams across the country. But now the Trump administration wants to repeal it.

Targeting the independence of the Federal Reserve, establishing a years-long blockade in Venezuela, attacking six nations in under a year, and acting as if ICE is above the law… Trump is chaos.

This admin wants us to believe we can’t afford to fund health care. Here’s the truth: We can afford it. They just don’t want to. They don’t care if working people lose their coverage.

From the streets of Minneapolis to the halls of the Fed, this administration’s clear and brazen belief that it can impose its will without guardrails is dangerous for our safety and our economy. I’ll keep doing everything I can in Congress to hold them accountable.

This is what happens when you give crooks free run of the place. This is a nakedly political and corrupt farce of an investigation. This Republican Congress needs to STAND UP and defend the independence of the Fed. Block ANY Fed nominee until this sham investigation ends.

The President wants to withdraw the U.S. from dozens of global organizations that further U.S. interests. Walking away from programs that support reproductive health, combat climate change, and protect victims of sexual violence is shortsighted and will weaken U.S. leadership and security.

Trump’s posting about being “Acting President of Venezuela” when he’s not even acting like a president at home.

Trump’s policies have failed to lower prices so his answer is to grab more power. Weaponizing the Department of Justice to take over our central bank is reckless and just plain dumb. I’ll fight it every step of the way on the Senate Banking Committee.

President Trump hasn’t yet lifted a finger to address sky-high housing costs except to hit “post” on Truth Social. He could start by telling House Republicans to stop blocking a bipartisan bill to build more housing and bring down costs.

It was an honor to meet members of the NJ Children’s Choir at the Korean Grassroots Conference Korean American Day celebration. Loved that they performed ‘Golden’ from K-Pop Demon Hunters!

This regime wants to transfer ED programs to federal agencies with no education experience or expertise. They've already tried this before and realized on their own that it does not work. Yet they are doing it again. Why? Because they do not care about your kids.

Trump’s attempt to bully the Fed with a bogus, political prosecution threatens our economy and the rule of law. Enough. I urge my Republican colleagues to grow a spine and condemn this madness.

.@smith.senate.gov: "Hours after Renee Good was shot and killed by federal agents, Kristi Noem was already telling us exactly what had happened. They were calling her a domestic terrorist before they even knew what her name was."

If the administration believes that risking our servicemembers is worth going into another country for oil, let them come to Congress for a vote. But that is certainly not putting America first.

As DOJ slips steadily into an ethical sewer, Americans should be scared stiff by this craven abuse of prosecution power. At long last, Republicans should grow a spine & share our public outrage.

Trump thinks he can bully an independent agency to serve him and his billionaire friends—regardless of the cost to consumers and our entire economy. His corruption is a threat to all of us.

The result is higher costs for families, uncertainty for businesses, and diminished confidence in our economic leadership around the world.

From impulsive trade wars and erratic tariffs to deficit-exploding tax cuts and attacks on Fed independence, President Trump has shown time and again that he’s more interested in political theater than helping the American people.
- MW
The administration’s latest attacks on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell are just the most recent example of Donald Trump’s chaos-driven approach to the economy – and once again, it’s working Americans who will pay the price.
- MW
We have also seen the president attempt to remove a sitting Federal Reserve Board member, underscoring his willingness to attack the Fed for refusing to fall in line.
- MW
Unfortunately, we have seen this pattern before. Over the past year, the Justice Department has repeatedly targeted the president’s perceived political adversaries, only to have courts and grand juries reject these cases as baseless and politically motivated.
- MW
Uncertainty and instability can ripple through the economy, affecting borrowing costs and making it harder for families to buy a home, run a small business, or afford everyday necessities like food, fuel, and diapers.
- MW
That independence provides the stability that markets, investors, and everyday Americans rely on. Using the threat of criminal prosecution to pressure the Fed over interest rates is a direct assault on that foundation and puts the economic security of millions of Americans at risk.
- MW
The Fed was designed to operate independently, insulated from political pressure, so that it can make tough decisions based on data and the long-term health of the economy, not the whims of any one president.
- CS
Jay Powell and the Fed aren’t the reason Trump’s economy and his poll numbers are in the toilet. If he’s looking for the person who caused that he should look in the mirror.
- CS
Donald Trump’s assault on the Fed’s independence continues, threatening the strength and stability of our economy. This is the kind of bullying that we’ve all come to expect from Donald Trump and his cronies. Anyone who is independent and doesn’t just fall in line behind Trump gets investigated.

The administration’s continued attacks on the Federal Reserve threaten its independence and will further destabilize the economy. These political attacks undermine the rule of law and will only increase costs for all Americans.

Horrified by the vile attack on the Beth Israel Congregation, and praying for Jackson, Mississippi’s Jewish community tonight. Across the country, we are seeing a disturbing rise in antisemitic hate speech and violence. 🧵

Watch this. All of it. This is what standing up to bullying looks like. We’ve got to stand up to the mob boss in chief and fight back against his corruption and political intimidation.

The rallying cry today in Stamford—independent investigation with state & local involvement, far reaching reform of ICE, firing failed federal leadership, & more—mirrors demands of so many sickened & heartbroken by the Minneapolis tragedy.

Grateful to hundreds including Gov Lamont & other leaders who rallied in Stamford against ICE brutality & lawlessness. Killing of Renee Good was part of a pattern—escalating excessive force, documented in my PSI report.

Americans don’t want the uniform military policing our streets. Over Christmas, the Supreme Court agreed. And, as we are seeing in Minnesota right now, having unnecessary federal forces in our streets can cause things to spin out of control. youtube.com/shorts/DCbq-...

We need to have a serious conversation about our priorities as a country. We’re spending resources on private jets for cabinet secretaries while there are Americans who can’t afford to put food on the table. That’s seriously backward and morally wrong.

Schools should be safe places for students. ICE officers are detaining educators at Minnesota high schools—causing chaos and tension in our communities. ICE needs to get off our streets and stay away from our schools.

Natural disasters don't discriminate between party, nor should parties discriminate between disasters when Americans are in need of help. The California delegation, @padilla.senate.gov and I are urging the Trump admin to deliver the federal aid Los Angeles needs to rebuild, and to do it now.

Americans are struggling with the soaring cost of housing, health care, and groceries in Trump’s economy. The mere talk of invading Greenland betrays American values, threatens NATO, and exposes this administration’s failure to put working people first.
