My State of the Union guest, Dr. Neil Hockstein, works to protect Delawareans from losing access to health care because of Medicaid and Affordable Care Act cuts. We’re hoping for real solutions about how to lower health care costs for Americans, but we’re not counting on it.

Trump is trying to paint a rosy picture of the housing crisis. In reality, a majority of Americans can’t afford rent on a modest 2 bedroom. Americans aren't buying their first home until 40. And Trump’s tariffs have raised the costs of a new home by $11,000.

Whenever Trump brags about job numbers, remember he tried to fire the person in charge of them six months ago because he didn’t like the numbers. He always wants the credit, but never takes responsibility when things go wrong.

Donald Trump called this the "golden age of America." For who? Grocery prices are up. Rent is up. Utility costs are up. Health care costs are up.

Only a couple minutes into Trump’s State of the Union and the lies have started. Working families don’t think our nation is “bigger, better, richer, or stronger” than ever before. Costs are up, American citizens killed in the streets, and Trump wants to drag us into a war that nobody wants.

Invitamos a Caroline Dias Goncalves al Estado de la Unión del Presidente Trump. Dreamers, cómo Caroline, crecieron aquí desde que eran niños. No deberían vivir con miedo de la violencia de ICE.

President Trump is about to deliver the State of the Union. Most Americans believe the state of the union is not strong — and that we're worse off than we were a year ago. www.npr.org/2026/02/23/n...

When Coloradans lose faith in the government, they turn to the leaders in their communities for guidance. Thank you, Andrea Loya, for your courageous work at Casa de Paz — fighting for the dignity and humanity of immigrants facing detention and the families devastated by separation.

The chaos of cost-raising tariffs is making it harder for Nevada small business owners like Vania to plan for the future. Nevadans need relief from tariffs — but Trump is doubling down and imposing MORE taxes even after he lost at the Supreme Court.

Mayor Mary Sheffield made history as the first Black woman elected in Detroit’s 300-year history. I am so honored to have her as my guest at the U.S. Capitol for tonight's State of the Union address. Looking forward to working together for Detroit and for Michigan!

Donald Trump keeps saying he wants to cap credit card interest rates. Americans being charged 25 or 30% interest rates are waiting for action — and Trump has failed to deliver. But I’m not giving up.

I'm proud to have Vania Carter-Strauss as my guest for tonight's State of the Union. Vania is a Nurse Practitioner, educator, small business owner, and NV mom who cares deeply about her community. I'm so grateful to have Vania here with me to highlight the real impact of DC policies on our state.

The American people will see tonight that Democrats offer a better choice forward: A choice to lower costs. A choice to end the chaos. A choice to restore some sanity to our country.

Dani is a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse. She’s here today as my guest to attend the State of the Union because even after everything she endured, she is still fighting—not just for herself but for every survivor who was silenced, ignored, and dismissed.

Tariff chaos has hurt small businesses across the country, dried up markets for farmers, and cost the average American family $1,700 last year. What the President should be focused on tonight is bringing down costs, not doubling down on tariffs.

Tonight, the American people will see a president whose ego does not let him see the reality of Trump 2.0: Costs. Chaos. Corruption.

Do you mean to tell me that the same Justice Department who put up a giant banner of Donald Trump’s face has been withholding documents from the Epstein files to protect the President? I’m shocked.

In tonight’s State of the Union address, I hope President Trump has answers for the American people. Real answers on why he has yet to lower their costs, or why he is focused on more foreign wars, or even about his relationship with Epstein. He owes it to the American people.

Because kicking 15 million people off their health care to pay for corporate tax cuts worked so well the first time.

New Hampshire's only food bank distributed 20 million pounds of food last year - the most in its history. My constituents are struggling to keep up with the rising cost of groceries, and the President's tariffs and cuts to federal food assistance are making this crisis worse.

The shrinking middle class, and affordability are the fundamental issues of our time, and the President ran his campaign on that. But he just hasn't delivered.

Trump is making life worse and more expensive for the American people, defying Congress at every turn, and spitting in the face of the law—I won’t be sitting through his SOTU. But you can bet, I’ll be listening—I’ll be ready to respond to the lies and set the record straight.

Working families can't afford their groceries or their health care premiums because Trump slapped a tax on essentials and forced premiums to skyrocket. He has no record to stand on tonight because he's done nothing but hurt working people.

Today, @duckworth.senate.gov and I met with members of the Illinois State Association of Counties to discuss the affordability crisis. As the President slashes funding for health care, SNAP, and other key services, local governments are the ones picking up the slack to protect their communities.

Yet again, the DOJ got caught in a lie, doing Trump's bidding. They're covering up for him at the expense of the American people — and above all the survivors of Epstein's abuse — who deserve the TRUTH NOW. No more hiding. Release ALL THE FILES. www.npr.org/2026/02/24/n...

Today marks four years since Russia’s invasion into Ukraine. I recently met with President Zelenskyy in Munich and expressed my solidarity with the Ukrainian people who continue to endure immense hardship. The United States must pressure Russia to end this war and end the suffering.

Tonight, the President is going to lie to you. He’ll say costs are down. Health care is affordable. The border is fixed. But we know the truth. Families across this country are suffering. And it didn’t happen by accident.
