Trump promised to raise wages. They've barely budged under his Presidency. And since his war in Iran, real wages have actually fallen 1.3%.

Americans have paid an extra $147 BILLION for fuel alone since Trump started his illegal war with Iran. And apparently he "doesn't give a damn."

To do nothing to prevent Chinese spies from targeting a top American executive is a dangerous dereliction of duty.

ICE is terrorizing our communities—now slashing tires of a Portland resident who attempted to shine a light on their abusive behavior. Amid ICE's unlawfulness, the right to bear witness has never been more important to hold our government accountable www.aclu.org/press-releas...

Households that heat with oil are paying nearly twice what they paid a year ago. That puts real stress on people’s budgets, especially seniors on fixed-incomes. LIHEAP offers substantial grants to help ensure vulnerable RIers can afford their heating bills this winter.

This year, he was able to do it. He reminds us that if we don't stand up to the hateful bigotry that allowed for this dark chapter to unfold, history will repeat itself. Indeed, in too many respects, it feels like it already is. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

To remind us of the resilience of the Japanese Americans who were held captive at the camp and the xenophobia, cruelty, and discrimination they faced, Dan Kwong wanted to stage a baseball game at Manzanar.
- AS
Japanese Americans had their rights stripped away during their internment at Manzanar. They played baseball to distract from the horrors they faced and to show loyalty to the United States.

Trump’s fossil fuel donors are making a fortune off his war, for sure. They are also making a fortune off his clean energy blockade. In both cases, you pay for it.

Trump thinks there’s always money for war, but no money for child care. He wants to spend trillions on bombs and weapons, while cutting investments in housing and health care. It does not get more wrong or out of touch than that.

The stories we heard from Coloradans this week were devastating. People shouldn’t be forced into impossible decisions because our healthcare system doesn’t work for them. We need to fix it. We need transparency. We need a path to affordable, accessible, and universal healthcare.

As climate change, pollution, and this regime's attacks on environmental protections have left our ecosystems at risk, I'm proud to have secured funding to protect and maintain Hawaii's coral reefs. It was great to visit DLNR to see this project — and our coral — come to life!

Instead of investing in child care to make life easier for American families, Donald Trump is blowing YOUR tax dollars on his gold-encrusted ballroom.

Together with former Congresswoman Cheri Bustos and @duckworth.senate.gov, we secured a $23.7 million grant for East Moline’s downtown revitalization project, & today I attended its ribbon cutting. This initiative will breathe new life into this town, & I am pleased to see it near completion.

Congress made overwhelmingly clear that we must close sanctions loopholes to intensify pressure on Russia and end this war in Ukraine. Yet Trump continues to defy Congress and Americans' voice. His focus on appeasing Putin and enriching Russia further erodes trust with our allies and partners.

Assault weapon bans work, & states and localities should have the ability to enact them if they choose. I led my Democratic colleagues in submitting an amicus brief to the Supreme Court urging the justices to uphold the constitutionality of these responsible restrictions on military grade weaponry.

What we need here is for the “high ambition” countries to gather outside the UN process that gives polluter countries a veto. Together, they’re an economic force sufficient to change industry behavior. But they need a better venue.

It was a privilege to join his family, friends, former-student athletes, and the Spartan Community to celebrate a man who meant so much to so many. Coach Bibbs will be deeply missed, but his legacy will live on through the athletes, families, and Michiganders whose lives he touched.
- ES
Coach Bibbs was more than a legendary track and field coach — and the first African-American head coach in the Big Ten. He was a mentor, a trailblazer, and the kind of leader who saw the best in people and inspired them. And he was generous with his time for all who knew him, including me.

We’re 8 months into Trump’s war that he started without any idea what his goal or plan was. Is life any better? No. Everything is more expensive and our country is less safe.

We owe a debt of gratitude to our servicemembers and veterans that can never be repaid, and I’ll continue working across the aisle to ensure that our veterans and servicemembers always have a home to come back to.

Health care open enrollment starts this Sunday, and more Delawareans are facing impossible choices as premiums climb. Republicans are driving up the cost of health care. We need to act to lower costs and reinstate the ACA tax credits before more families lose coverage or go without care.

Since Day 1, Trump has given the biggest polluters a free pass to poison our air and make Americans sick. His message is clear: Big Polluters profit. American families pay the price. Trump’s corruption costs.
