Congratulations to Cal Poly and Cal Poly Pomona students for taking the top award at this year’s Rose Parade! California is home to some of the greatest colleges and universities in the world, and I applaud these students’ ingenuity and creativity.

Michigan, it’s been a wild 2025. This year, we traveled to every corner of both of our beautiful Peninsulas. It’s the honor of my life to represent you in the Senate — here’s to 2026!

Voting by mail is safe, trackable, and encourages high turnout. Washington helped pioneer vote-by-mail, and our voters have used it to participate in our democracy for years. I hope this ruling will stop those who would undermine our elections or make it harder to vote. komonews.com/news/politic...

I toured RWJ Barnabas Health Center in Newark today to discuss the importance of healthcare that meets people where they are. Providing support in social services, food insecurity, and safe housing should all be elements of our care system. There’s no health without them.

When Trump says he "isn't worried about boots on the ground" in Venezuela, that's because he isn't talking about his family. American citizens must have a say about any act of war. It is OUR soldiers and OUR money at stake.
- AS
If anyone blockaded the U.S., launched a military operation to make an arrest on U.S. soil, let alone seized our natural resources, and killed civilians in the process, we'd consider it an act of war.

Here’s the unspoken truth: While we’re busy fighting each other, this administration is working overtime to funnel wealth from the bottom to the top. That’s the whole game.

My HOME Act would crack down on corporate price gouging in the housing market and help lower costs. I’ll keep fighting to pass this bill and give Nevadans some breathing room.
- JR
Buying a home is out of reach for far too many Nevada families, and part of the problem is bad actor corporate investors who buy up homes and drive up prices.

He has built an economy that does nothing for Colorado families but make a middle class life more expensive and less attainable for themselves and their children. (2/2)

Yesterday’s jobs report makes clear: President Trump is more interested in political retribution and self-enrichment than creating opportunities for working Americans. (1/2)

Today, @menendez.house.gov and I met with members of NJ’s Venezuelan community and asked them what they think about this administration’s actions. We owe them answers about Trump’s true motives and plans for their home country.

Pete Hegseth is the least qualified Defense Secretary we've ever had and his open contempt for women in the military is a slap in the face to those who have put their lives on the line to keep us safe.

Leaving the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension out of the investigation into Renee Nicole Good's tragic death is wrong. They worked seamlessly with the FBI on Hortman & Annunciation cases—shutting them out now undermines trust and objectivity.

Nor can it blame the West for its own failures. These massive protests are born of the desire of the Iranian people to live in liberty and peace.
- AS
I stand with the people of Iran speaking out and risking their lives to demand a better life for themselves and their children. The repressive and dictatorial Iranian regime must end its crackdown on demonstrators. 🧵

Trump has: - Illegally & unconstitutionally attacked Venezuela - Provided Netanyahu with $12B in arms sales - Given Argentina's president a $40B bailout - Approved the sale of jets & tanks to Saudi Arabia - Given Qatar an Air Force facility in Idaho America first? Really?
- MB
DHS owes the American people full transparency on what happened in both Portland and Minneapolis, and the federal government must work with local and state governments to deliver an accurate and trustworthy investigation.
- AK
I don’t believe the lie Trump is telling about his motives in Venezuela. It’s about enriching his wealthy friends and feeding his own ego.

Oil companies shouldn't know more about Donald Trump's plans in Venezuela than the American people. I launched an investigation with @whitehouse.senate.gov, because every single American deserves answers.

My family knows what it means to get knocked down and stand back up. From combat missions to Gabby’s long recovery after being shot, we’ve learned that resilience is not about pretending things are easy — it's about doing the right thing even when they're not.

We need to talk about this. Sec Kennedy took action this week to make it harder for children to get vaccinated for the flu. I think that’s completely insane and unacceptable.

There are more ICE agents in Minnesota than Minneapolis and St. Paul police combined. They are here against the wishes of local law enforcement, including Police Chief Brian O'Hara. ICE is not making our communities more safe, and they need to get off our streets.

@atrupar.com Minnesota is once again the center of America’s heartbreak, but we are resilient — and we care for one another. Just as we have before, we must come together for the good of our state.

Begging credit card companies to play nice is a joke. I said a year ago if Trump was serious I’d work to pass a bill to cap rates. Since then, he’s done nothing but try to shut down the CFPB. Trump doesn’t care about affordability. Americans know a fraud when they see one.

Don't let this administration fool you. The real reason behind this meddling in Venezuela is less about drugs than it is about dollars. Oil dollars.

We need full, independent investigations into the shootings at the hands of federal immigration officials that have taken place this week in Minneapolis and Portland. This aggressive deployment of ICE into our communities is resulting in a terrible loss of life. 🧵

RFK Jr.’s ‘Make America Sick Agenda’ is damaging our public health infrastructure—and health workers are bearing the brunt of this crisis. The Public Health Nursing Act will help us build healthier communities by supporting nurses and bolstering our public health system.

Trump tried to punish our kids and cut billions in child care and other services simply because our state voted against him. A federal judge just blocked him. Leave our children out of political games.

ICE is out of control. Separating families. Shooting Americans in cold blood. Profiling folks based on the color of their skin or the language they speak. We need accountability for ICE. We need it now.

Trump has been trying to kill the CFPB for a year – an agency that's returned over $21 billion directly to consumers cheated by giant corporations. But today Russ Vought was forced to request funding for the CFPB because we fought back in the courts. We’ll stay in the fight.
