The question now is whether Congress continues to allow President Trump to undermine the Constitution, state law, and Americans’ right to cast their votes, or whether Congress will stand up and stop Homeland Security's unauthorized attempt to throw Americans off of the voting rolls. (2/2)

The President is wrong. Washington State’s universal vote-by-mail system is safe and secure and so was the 2020 election. Ask Mike Pence. (1/2)

Trump has no idea how to end his reckless and expensive war in Iran, so now he is bombing civilian targets. This is a war crime. We already know how to end this war. Stop the bombing now.

Health care premiums are skyrocketing because he won’t extend the tax credits. His tariffs are crushing Minnesota farmers & small businesses, and his war with Iran is raising prices even more. Instead of doing anything to lower costs for Americans, Donald Trump continues to attack the right to vote.

Putin's illegal war has gone on for far too long, costing countless innocent lives. That's why I joined more than 60 of my Senate colleagues to hold those fueling Russia's war machine accountable.

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.

We just proved that Congress can pass big bipartisan legislation that helps Americans, even if the President doesn’t care. We can’t stop now.

Disaster relief should never be political. These are communities that are hurting and have been through the worst times of their lives. It’s so far below our shared American values and is unacceptable.

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.

Six years ago today, my parishioner, my mentor, and my hero, John Lewis, transitioned into ancestorhood. May God bless the memory of the boy from Troy, and may we all continue getting into good trouble.

We've made important progress to combat addiction and bring down overdoses, but we can't let up in the fight now. I was grateful to meet with leaders of organizations that help Granite Staters get into and stay in recovery and talk about what more we need to do.

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.

Since then, he has attempted to seize ballots, sued 30 states for their voter rolls, dismantled the Election Assistance Commission, and pushed to pass the SAVE Act which would disenfranchise millions of voters across the country. We cannot allow this type of corruption to become normalized.

At the State of the Union, President Trump declared that the only way Democrats could win in the midterms is if they cheat.

The Attorney General is America's top law enforcement officer—not the President's personal attorney. Todd Blanche has repeatedly shown that he's the wrong person for the job.

The president refuses to rule out, as does his cabinet, sending in uniform military. He's obsessed with it. That's why I introduced the Protect Our Polls Act.

My statement on President Trump's speech.

Here’s the truth: his own administration moved to gut the very programs that protect our elections. His lies are the point — it’s how he tries to justify taking over election systems ahead of the midterms in order to hold onto power. He’s afraid he’s going to lose, but we’re focused on you. 2/2

Last night was 25 minutes of conspiracy theories from a man who still can’t get over 2020. Not one word about your rent, groceries, or health care. 1/2
- AK
Despite everything he said tonight, Americans will go to the polls this fall because they don’t want more rubber stamps of Donald Trump.
- AK
He's relitigating an election he lost six years ago instead of focusing on what he should be fixing: costs are up for families across the country and his war has no end in sight.
- AK
Every American has the right to vote. But the President continues to attack that right, including once again voting by mail (which he has done himself).
- MW
That was an embarrassing speech with no new info – just lies and rehashed conspiracies. It’s incumbent on ALL of us not to treat that like real news.

- AS
By now it should be obvious that Trump intends to repeat his playbook from 2020, and attempt to deny any result he does not like. And tonight was just another attempt by him to avoid accountability and defeat in November.
- AS
What the President presented tonight was not a leveling with the American people. It was a renewed attempt to inject fear and cloud reality ahead of the next election in November and provide pretext for seizing voter data, and discrediting and interfering with election results.
- AS
And Trump himself has discounted these threats as hoaxes in the past, breaking from bipartisan tradition of taking the hard work of our intelligence community seriously.
- AS
Seasoned FBI and other federal agents have been pulled off the beat to chase conspiracies and aid Trump’s chaotic and unlawful deportation agenda.
- AS
Under Trump’s leadership, he has gutted resources committed to combatting foreign malign influence. Funding for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and local election security grants have been slashed under the Trump administration.
- AS
But when it comes to identifying real threats and giving our election administrators the resources to fight them, Trump’s actions speak louder than his words tonight.
- AS
He has also repeatedly ignored and dismissed previous, credible intelligence about foreign interference in elections because it did not fit his political agenda.
- AS
The reality is that foreign governments do try to influence our elections—in fact, Trump has previously encouraged Russia to do exactly that.
- AS
He is merely trying to undermine confidence in our elections, so he can seize voter data under the guise of protecting it, and subvert elections he is convinced his party is losing. He will not succeed.
- AS
Even so, tonight he produced no evidence that China or any other country manipulated a single U.S. voting system or changed a single vote.
- AS
All of his claims and the selective release of any documents must be treated with the greatest skepticism given the President’s many lies and misrepresentations about our elections.
- AS
Terrified that voters will send his party packing in the midterms, he is falling back on some old lies and putting out new ones.
- AS
Trump knows he has failed to deliver on any of his campaign promises, has raised costs of American families instead of lowering them, and gotten us into another Middle Eastern war nobody wanted.
- AS
Tonight, the same President who once badgered Georgia’s Republican Secretary of State to find 11,780 votes that didn’t exist, so he could overtake Biden’s lead in the state in 2020, put out a whole new set of lies about our elections, past and present.
- AS
So about that speech:🧵
- MW
Tonight, Donald Trump made one thing abundantly clear: He’s going to do everything he can to interfere in our free and fair elections. This is the time for all of us to stand together and fight back.

If Trump wins, it’s a fair election. If he loses, there was fraud. Does he realize the election he’s talking about happened under his watch as President? The only reason Trump is bringing this up now is to distract from the fact he’s failed to make Americans' lives better.
- BL
Every American must stand up and call out these lies for what they are. I will always fight for our rights and our democracy.
- BL
This administration has only made life harder and more expensive for American families. Now, he’s ordering Congressional Republicans to rig our election system with the SAVE Act in a desperate attempt to hold onto power.
- BL
If you didn’t catch Donald Trump’s incoherent ramblings tonight, here’s what you need to know: Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. Fair and square. He’s still selling the same lies that led to a violent insurrection five years ago.

My statement on Trump’s latest attempt to lay the groundwork to rig the 2026 elections and undermine democracy:

We will be ready. We have systems to protect the vote and lawyers to defend those systems. The important thing right now is for the public to see and understand what this lawless and increasingly unhinged president is trying to do.
- SW
We are witnessing a failed, unstable president now trying to misuse the powers of the federal government to taint an American election, backed by his coterie of creepy billionaires.
- SW
Tonight seems to be the ceremonial kickoff of President Trump’s campaign to interfere in the November election. Trump has badly lost independent voters, even MAGA is disheartened; he is failing and unpopular, and he’s dragging his party down with him in the midterms.
- TB
President Trump should have given a primetime address on how we can work together to make rent a little cheaper or insurance premiums actually affordable - instead, we got recycled conspiracy theories as he lays the groundwork to undermine our next election.
