In case you missed it – the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is now the law of the land! I am proud of this huge bipartisan victory to increase our housing supply and lower costs for Michiganders. huroncountyview.com/articles/pet...

One year ago, Trump enacted the biggest Medicaid cut in history in his Big, Ugly Betrayal. Today, @durbin.senate.gov and I heard from providers, patients and advocates about the true costs of these cuts—and what comes next.

The Department of Homeland Security is now threatening to ARREST election officials who don’t comply with their illegal voter purges. Our democracy is on the brink.

Rep. Lewis devoted his life to bringing liberty and justice to all. As we mark 6 years since his passing, we honor his legacy by continuing that fight to create a more equal, more just country.

Trump’s “Golden Dome” project has the potential to be a $1+ trillion waste of taxpayer money. Ground-based missile defense is hard. Missile defense from space is even harder, and the physics do not favor the defense. We should be investing in systems that actually work.

ACA enrollment is plummeting. Billions cut from Medicaid. Tax credits that help pay for premiums expired. At every turn, Republicans are making health care less affordable. American families deserve better. apnews.com/article/affo...

Republicans refused even the most basic guardrails on ICE. Now the consequences are being measured in lives. The Trump admin rushed 12,000 agents onto our streets without ensuring they were fit to carry a badge and a gun—and Republicans gave this rogue agency vast power and no accountability.

The president thinks he can tell the American people that we're winning the war with Iran when they still know the price of gas. People aren't stupid.

Far too many of our health care facilities are facing workforce shortages. I'm proud to have introduced the Welcome Back to the Health Care Workforce Act alongside Lisa Murkowski to make it easier for internationally educated health care professionals to help close those gaps.

Yesterday, I stood alongside AFGE and former State Department employees who were fired by Trump last year. I remember that day vividly and I remember thinking, this is no way to treat people who served our nation. We must lead with service and expertise, not chaos.

It’s been six years since we lost my friend, colleague, mentor, and our hero John Lewis. Throughout his extraordinary life, he showed us that - even in our darkest moments - we can fight for what is right AND spread joy and light. We miss you, John!

They are losing, and they know it. Election officials will not be intimidated. Senate Democrats will make sure resources are in place to fight back against any illegal activity by the Trump administration.

Six years ago today, we lost Congressman John Lewis. I walked the Edmund Pettus Bridge with him — the bridge where he was violently attacked for standing up for voting rights. His message has never been more important: the right to vote is precious. It’s sacred. It’s our job to carry on his torch.

Before the Trump Administration approved this lucrative deal for the UAE, it should have leveraged an end to the UAE’s reported role in the Sudanese war as well as the release of Emirati human rights activist Ahmed Mansoor.

Reports that the Admin has fired experts and cut funding that helps communities respond to extreme heat are incredibly concerning, and I’m urging Sec. Kennedy to reverse course immediately to ensure the federal government has the qualified personnel they need to keep Nevadans safe during heat waves.

Trump's nominee for Labor Secretary already has an anti-worker record, and now he's asking for a promotion! Confirming him would mean more of the same: cutting off overtime pay, undercutting unions, and letting corporations get away with robbery—literally. I'm voting NO.

A year ago, Republicans made the largest SNAP cut in history. Since then, thousands of people in Delaware and 4 million Americans are no longer getting food assistance. Trump’s “America First” agenda puts billionaires first and leaves kids hungry. www.cbpp.org/research/foo...

Donald Trump promised to lower costs “on Day One.” But everyday costs are through the roof, forcing more people to take out “Buy Now, Pay Later” loans just to make it through the month. And now these loans – originally marketed as no interest – are ramping up fees on Americans.

Nobody should be forced to choose between life-saving medication or paying rent. Yet this is reality for Americans managing diabetes. We must end this crisis, and by capping insulin costs at $35 a month, my INSULIN Act would be a major step in doing just that.

Trump’s speech was full of lies and frankly embarrassing. He lost in 2020 and he’s trying to scare people away from voting in 2026. The bottom line: our elections are secure, safe, and free. If Republicans give a damn about our democracy they need to stand up and push back.

We should all be paying attention. The president is actively attacking the integrity of our elections to try and justify his voter suppression efforts. Here's the truth: the 2020 election was free and fair. Now, we need to stay vigilant to make sure the 2026 elections are too.
