Another man was killed by ICE. Just days since the last fatal shooting by this agency. I pushed constantly to give Republicans every opportunity to enact common-sense reforms on ICE—the same basic standards our local police follow. Republicans BLOCKED every single reform.

The entirety of the Boundary Waters is being evacuated due to wildfires, led by eight fearless Wilderness Rangers paddling around to campsites. 1,000,000 acres. 2,000 campsites. 4 teams of rangers. 2 rangers per canoe.

If there's a shutdown, it's on Donald Trump. He said so himself. Unless Trump changes his course, realizes the anti-democracy SAVE Act cannot pass, and starts working on more productive things, we could be headed for another Trump Shutdown.

Trump has no clue what he’s doing in Iran, and it’s a recipe for utter disaster. He had no plan and no exit strategy on day 1 of this reckless war. We’re on day 136, and nothing has changed.

The SAVE America Act and redistricting to eliminate minority-majority districts are actions to take away the right to vote.

Donald Trump has already tried to redraw the maps and change the rules of our elections to tilt the playing field in his favor. When he can't win by the rules, he tries to change them.

To say that Senators Ossoff and Warnock are "illegitimate" because of election fraud is lunacy and reeks of desperation. And it is so obviously part of Trump’s corrupt effort to subvert the 2026 midterm elections.

If you’re wondering why stuff feels more and more expensive, Trump keeps finding new and innovative ways to invent brand-new taxes on Americans. This one was just so dumb even he had to back down.

Today, the Senate will take a key vote on a $1.1 TRILLION defense bill. Not only does this effectively green light Trump's illegal Iran war, it also gives the Israeli govt immense leverage over our national security. In 2023, we saw firsthand the risk that could pose⬇️

Republicans are once again fighting tooth and nail to defund Planned Parenthood while they do nothing to make your life more affordable. Defunding Planned Parenthood means millions will have less access to cancer screenings and basic health care. No way. I'm fighting back.

Marlene Galán-Woods will be a relentless fighter for Arizona families. Whether it's working across the aisle to bring down costs or protecting our fundamental rights, she is exactly the kind of common sense leader we need more of. I’m proud to support her in #AZ01.

Allowing poorly trained agents to roam our streets, kick down doors without warrants, and shoot people dead in the street is state-sanctioned violence—not immigration policy.

Donald Trump and his family cashed in while ordinary investors got stuck holding the bag. Any crypto bill coming out of Congress must put an end to this brazen financial corruption.

The ROAD to Housing Act is officially law. It stops Wall Street from buying up single family homes and cuts the red tape standing in the way of new construction. This is for every Arizona family just trying to buy a home.

Stationing federal troops outside of our polls is illegal and goes against the ideals behind the foundation of our country. Let’s be clear: state and local officials have ensured our elections are safe and reliable throughout history.

It cost taxpayers $14 million to tint the Lincoln Reflecting Pool. It’ll cost taxpayers $300 million to build his ballroom. It’ll cost $100 million to build his arch. People can’t afford to pay for health care or buy a house, but Trump is making you pay for his vanity projects.

Just as we finally got the federal government to begin sharing evidence with investigators in the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minnesota, two more people are dead — killed by ICE in Texas and Maine. Republicans in Congress need to stand up. These killings must stop.

Too many Wisconsin families are struggling to make ends meet, and instead of that being his highest priority, President Trump is focused on a bill that will make folks pay for IDs they don’t have and force rural Wisconsinites to drive long distances just to register to vote.

On Monday, ICE agents were involved in yet another deadly shooting, this time in Maine. There must be a full and transparent investigation into what happened, why it happened and what can be done to prevent more deaths.

Rubio, three weeks ago: “No country is allowed to charge tolls or fees on an international waterway.” Trump, yesterday: the U.S. will charge a 20 percent fee on maritime cargo through Strait of Hormuz. So much for the principle of freedom of navigation. China is watching.

For months, I’ve been warning about Trump’s obsession with losing the 2020 election and his threats to “take over” voting. Now, it looks like he’s going to claim he found “fraud” that justifies his interference in the midterms. Don’t buy into his BS!

Back in May, acting-AG Blanche told @murray.senate.gov & me that if we connected him with survivors of Epstein's abuse, he would meet with them. 2 months later, after repeated outreach, nothing. Today, we're demanding he live up to his commitment.

Trump is continuing his deadly illegal war in Iran, spending billions of taxpayer funds and sending costs skyrocketing for Americans. His so-called “deal” has fallen apart, and it’s clear he has ZERO plan to get us out. End this war. NOW. www.wsj.com/world/middle...

The Senate cannot authorize an unprecedented $1.14 trillion in defense spending for Trump to continue his disastrous war at the expense of the American people. I will vote no on the NDAA unless my amendment to end this illegal war is included. Enough is enough.

America needs leaders who respect & uphold the Constitution. I’ve voted multiple times to end this unauthorized war. And I will not stop pressing Republicans to finally summon the courage to join Democrats in doing the right thing and holding Trump accountable.

America doesn’t need another ‘forever war’ & it doesn’t need Pres. Trump trying to promote his terrible deal as a ‘victory.’ Instead, we need true professional negotiators who understand how to bring about a meaningful end to Trump’s war.

For Trump, everything is for sale. America’s natural beauty and public lands mean nothing to him as long as his donors can profit from them.

Trump’s decision to slash the boundaries of Bears Ears & Grand Staircase Escalante National Monuments is an attack on public lands. In the wake of these unfortunate reductions, I urge Congress to pass my America’s Red Rock Wilderness Act to protect & defend these lands for future generations.

A free press is a core part of a functioning democracy. Trump sent the Justice Department to intimidate journalists who reported on his blatant corruption and the national security risks of his Qatari-gifted private jet. Outrageous. The press serve the people, not the President.

Every day, Americans are paying higher costs due to Pres. Trump’s unilateral failures in Iran. I’ve been clear since day one: Trump must change course. Clearly, his son-in-law and golfing buddy aren’t getting the job done. Not in Iran. And not in Ukraine.

CEOs of the largest companies in America make 281 times what the typical worker makes. Since 1978, pay for these CEOs has skyrocketed 1,094%. Typical worker pay? 26%. So no, your $5 coffee isn’t why you can’t afford rent.

I opposed Pres. Trump’s reckless Iran war from the start. It’s been one mistake after another resulting in lost lives, billions of dollars wasted, depleted munitions, & global instability. Meanwhile, Republicans refuse to hold this Admin accountable for its failures.

Tomorrow, the Senate will take a key vote on the $1.1 TRILLION defense bill. It not only fails to rein in Trump’s Iran war, it also has a provision touted by PM Netanyahu to MANDATE more U.S. defense cooperation with Israel. None of this is in our national security interests. I will vote NO.

Two unarmed people shot by ICE in less than a week, the latest now in Maine. Republicans, instead of focusing on passing enforceable guardrails to stop ICE's terror and brutal tactics, have decided to give this unchecked agency billions more through reconciliation.

Republicans spent this year blocking all attempts to add real, commonsense guardrails on DHS. Now two people have been killed by ICE in less than a week—and no agents were wearing body cams. This has to stop.
