Donald Trump? The close personal friend of Jeffrey Epstein? Gutting child trafficking oversight?

Across the country, Americans celebrated the Artemis II crew’s return. But the most excited welcome might belong to astronaut Christina Koch’s dog, Sadie!

📈💸 Why are prices surging? A few reasons, but they all have one thing in common: Trump. He started a costly foreign war no one asked for. He imposed chaotic tariffs that have upended the economy. He’s creating uncertainty and instability that keeps driving costs higher.

O’Hare is the nation’s busiest airport, and it should have the resources and federal support that matches its status. Yesterday, I joined @duckworth.senate.gov to speak with FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford about how FAA can invest in O’Hare to ensure it remains in a league of its own.

What kind of crimes are being committed that White House staff would need pardons for? This is blatant and historic corruption. Criminals should NOT be running the White House.

I sounded the alarm about Donald Trump’s sons backing drone company, Powerus. Now, Powerus wants to sell drones to countries under attack by Iran. Are Trump’s sons cashing in on the war their father started? Americans deserve answers.

The Republican SAVE America Act is Trump's desperate attempt to cling to power and rig the November election. Hell no! I'll stand strong against this voter suppression bill.

It’s true that a president with significant mental health issues would leave adversaries “on edge.” As America loses.

We need public hearings in Congress. NOW. There’s no excuse for saying “no” to the American people. We deserve to know what is happening in this war waged in our name.

Remember when President Trump came into office declaring that he was going to cut wasteful government spending? Apparently, that doesn’t apply to the $70 million luxury jet Kristi Noem bought with taxpayer money.

Tonight, the Jewish community marks Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day. I am reflecting on the resilience of the Jewish people who had the courage to continue practicing their faith in the face of evil. We all must continue working to prevent antisemitism at home and abroad.

Last week, I continued my Common Grounds listening sessions tour with events in Lamoille, Grand Isle, and Windsor counties. Meeting with Vermonters and hearing the challenges they’re facing shapes every part of my work in the Senate.

How embarrassing for President Trump to go on an angry tirade against Pope Leo simply because he called for peace between the U.S. and Iran. Pope Leo wants to reduce human suffering. The president can't handle criticism, one of the reasons he's unfit to be commander in chief.

Trump's illegal war in Iran and threats to Iranian civilians are 1,000% out of sync with international law and every moral code. I'm fighting to rein him in with a war powers resolution.

This Administration is spending nearly $2 billion a day on an unauthorized war of choice. Inflation is climbing, gas prices are surging, and families are struggling to keep up. It is time to end this war and finally start to lower costs for hardworking Americans.

On Yom HaShoah, we honor and remember the six million Jews who died in the Holocaust. Today and every day, we know that “never again” starts with an enduring, daily commitment to speaking out against all forms of anti-Semitism.

Trump’s war is sending oil prices soaring and Big Oil is cashing in. Families pay more at the pump. CEOs profit. That’s not energy policy. That’s profiteering. Instead, I’m advocating for a tax on big oil windfall profits, and for oil execs to cut their pay.

From calling a documentary on female Holocaust victims "inherently discriminatory" to basing their cuts on AI chatbots, there's no low to which Trump's DOGE goons didn't stoop. They wreaked havoc, wasted taxpayer $, & made our gov LESS efficient. They must be held accountable.

So…We are now blocking…..the blockade? Make it make sense. For the grieving families of slain service members. For Americans facing higher gas prices. Make any of the President’s actions in Iran make sense.

Donald Trump refuses to accept commonsense, bipartisan reforms to ICE and CBP. Republicans would rather keep DHS shuttered than cross the man who has made cruelty the centerpiece of his agenda.

Trump’s Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) is shedding enforcement staff, dropping cases against corporate wrongdoers, leaving investors without relief, & diminishing the integrity of U.S. markets. Pres. Trump must start putting Main Street over Wall Street wants.

I asked GAO to investigate FDA and DOJ’s progress in combatting illegal & addictive vapes. The conclusion is troubling. Insufficient coordination, a lack of enforcement, and diversion of resources to mass deportations. More must be done to protect our children from the grips of big tobacco.

Trump and his family are profiting off the presidency by the billions while Americans struggle to pay the bills. In his second term, the Trump Organization has already done 8 deals in foreign countries. These are huge conflicts of interest. The corruption is clear as day.
