Congratulations to Péter Magyar on his victory in Hungary. The Hungarian people have sent the world a message by rejecting corruption & attacks on democracy today. A reminder for all who value democracy & freedom that the arc of history is long, but it bends toward justice.

Big Wind Day has arrived! 92 years ago, the Mount Washington Observatory recorded a wind speed of 231 mph—the highest ever recorded on Earth. As all Granite Staters know, the weather can get a bit extreme in NH, and this record-breaking event is a testament to that fact.

BREAKING: I join the Hungarian people in celebrating the crushing defeat of Orbán – a ringing testament to the power of democracy over autocracy. While we deal with Trump’s disastrous leadership, let’s find strength & hope in the power of the people over horrible strongman leaders.

While Wisconsinites struggle to afford health care, childcare, and housing, Donald Trump is planning another costly vanity project on the taxpayers' dime.

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump promised to “put America first.” Now, he’s clearing the way to use tens of millions of dollars of foreign steel for his $400 million ballroom. Just another broken promise…

This is a DIRECT result of Republican inaction. I tried to push a vote for over a YEAR to extend the ACA credits that helped folks get the health care they needed—but Republicans wouldn't budge. I won't stop fighting until health care becomes affordable for families at home.

The Trump Admin is rigging our immigration appeals process to hide the real problem in this case: Trump & Rubio's illegal crackdown on freedom of speech. We must ensure Mahmoud’s rights are respected — if they can take away his rights, all our rights are in danger. apnews.com/article/mahm...

The Trump Admin is keeping Kristi Noem’s $70 million luxury jet – that includes a full kitchen and bar – paid for with YOUR hard-earned tax dollars. As health care, gas, and grocery costs skyrocket, this is what the Admin is using their resources on?

Hospitals across the country are closing and letting health care workers go because Washington Republicans cut hundreds of billions of dollars of critical funding they rely on. Why did Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress do this? To pay for more tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy.

Families in Seattle and Spokane didn't vote for Trump's war of choice, but they're the ones paying for it every time they fill up their tank. And Republicans are blocking Democrats from putting an end to this war for good.

In Denver, we met with community leaders at Montbello’s FreshLo Hub. As basic necessities become less affordable, the work they’re doing here to create affordable lives for Coloradans is remarkable. We’re fighting to make sure families across the country have that same access.

Gas, health care, and groceries are all more expensive. And yet, Donald Trump thinks affordability concerns are a “hoax.”

Scientists fired. Measles cases up. And we’re less prepared for the next pandemic. That’s what we heard in Adams County meeting with public health officials from around the Metro area. The Trump admin has done a number on America’s public health. It puts our families and communities at risk.

Elon Musk and DOGE said they were going to root out waste, fraud and abuse. But during that time, Trump's DOJ dropped OVER 900 criminal cases of fraud. For Trump and Musk, it was never about rooting out waste. It was always about corruption and power.

The Admin’s new rule to end automatic extensions on work permit renewals for workers with legal status is unfair for everyone who is filing on time and following the rules. They shouldn’t be punished because our government has a backlog and doesn’t have the staff to process applications on time. 🧵
