This week, I met with NJ students from the Religious Action Center to hear what’s on their minds. I commend them for their advocacy on gun violence prevention, combatting antisemitism, teen mental health, and reproductive freedom, and look forward to supporting their initiatives.

$2 billion in grants to help stem opioid addiction and address mental health issues cancelled, then swiftly reinstated. Why the flip flop? Because of public outcry. Keep speaking out. Your voice matters. www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

I’m pleased that my bipartisan bill with Senator Cornyn and our colleagues passed out of the Judiciary Committee. It will help restore trust in our government by banning former Senate-confirmed government employees from lobbying on behalf of countries of concern to the U.S.

This is a huge win for New Mexico. I’m proud that the partnership we developed with GreenPower helped bring this company’s manufacturing, servicing and operations to our state — creating 340 permanent jobs in Santa Teresa and delivering cleaner air for our kids.

There are now more ICE agents in MN than there are police in the 10 largest metro police departments combined. Our Police Chief asked them not to come onto our streets, but the administration continues to escalate the situation. This is making Minnesota less safe.

This inaction is making it easier for Russia to fund its war machine — and for China to profit from the failure to enforce our measures.

Before Trump took office, Treasury and State regularly targeted hundreds of war profiteers across the globe who tried to undercut the impact of U.S. sanctions and export controls. Now, the President is throwing away leverage that could've helped achieve a just peace.

🧵It's now been a full year since the United States simply stopped counter-evasion sanctions rollouts targeting those who give Russia's war machine access to critical goods and schemes to pay for them.

NO—you're not "drinking other people's abortions." YES—anti-abortion activists are weaponizing environmental laws to rip away abortion care.

One year ago, Trump fired 17 Inspectors General—independent watchdogs who serve across Administrations of both parties. Since then, he's been tapping his own political allies to conduct oversight of his own Administration. That's a clear conflict of interest that has to stop.

I guess imitation is the greatest form of flattery. You shouldn't be paying the energy costs for big data centers. The way to be CERTAIN of that is to pass my Power for the People Act, to make corporations pay their own bills. If he's serious, Trump should help us get it done!

This is absolutely horrific. Immigration detention is at a crisis point under this Admin. I will be demanding information from DHS on Mr. Campos’ death as well as a lack of detention oversight. The Admin’s current detention scheme is dangerous and will result in more deaths.

The Trump administration is telling struggling American families to survive off $3 meals to save money. That's right: $3. They gave tax breaks to billionaires, but want struggling Americans to starve themselves.

Awful: The Trump Administration announced the termination of nearly $2 billion in substance use recovery and mental health grants—only to reverse course when folks called out that people would die as a result of these cuts. This Administration is playing games with people’s lives.

United Airlines made over $3.1 billion last year. Instead of reaching a fair deal with its flight attendants, United paid its CEO almost $34 million and provided over $162 million in stock buybacks to shareholders. United must respect its flight attendants and reach a deal NOW.
