The Trump administration is steering billions of dollars toward defense technologies. At the same time, the president’s sons are investing in the companies that stand to benefit. America's defense priorities should be driven by our national security, not the Trump family's bottom line.

Less than a month after declaring victory on this unnecessary war that the President started, we're right back to blockades and strikes on Iran. This President started this war without a strategy and has no strategy to end it. Gas prices are climbing, and Americans are paying the price.

The projected price tag of Trump’s illegal war of choice in Iran: $1 trillion Imagine what that money could do if we invested it in schools, housing, and health care instead of sending working-class kids to die.

Trump wants to shut down the government in September to force Senate Republicans to pass the SAVE Act, rig the midterm elections, and disenfranchise millions of American citizens. If the government shuts down in September, remember one man was cheerleading for that outcome all along: Donald Trump.

Thank you to all the first responders and firefighters putting themselves in harm’s way to combat the wildfires up near the Boundary Waters. Everyone in the area should listen to the guidance of state and local officials. Stay safe Minnesota!

In the last week, Ukraine has “sanctioned” roughly 100 shadow fleet ships carrying Russian oil. Shadow ships are burning; Russians are seeing gas lines and fistfights for fuel. Ukraine is winning.

Minnesota has stood up for so many women by protecting access to reproductive healthcare. Rep. Morrison and I talked with Minnesotans about what’s at stake: health centers closing, women traveling further for care and paying more. When our rights are threatened, we don't wait. We take action.

President Trump has repeatedly told us exactly what he plans to do and exactly what he thinks. If his side doesn’t win, the elections are rigged.

Corruption, chaos, and a culture of fear. More than 1,200 former DOJ employees warn that this the legacy of Todd Blanche’s tenure to date. I’m a NO on his nomination.

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” has been law for over a year now, and it’s clear who won: rich people and big corporations who got a giant tax cut. They benefited while health care and food assistance were ripped away from millions of families across the country. Don’t forget that.

The President may think historic legislation isn't worth his time or attention, but despite his inaction the ROAD to Housing package is now law. Everyone should have a safe, affordable place to call home.

Vermont's farmers have experienced so much crop loss because of flooding. As we remember the July 2023 and 2024 floods, @sanders.senate.gov, @balint.house.gov, and I are reintroducing my bill that'll make it easier for farmers to protect their farmland from flooding. https://bit.ly/4ykvxRx

I don't believe that Donald Trump believes in much of anything. For him, religion is just one more tool in his toolbox to divide us.

NEW: I just uncovered more evidence that Donald Trump is spending hundreds of thousands of your tax dollars to print giant banners of his face and put them on government buildings. Not only a terrible waste of the hard-earned dollars of the American people, but also an illegal use of public funds.

As I get back to DC, I want to welcome the announcement that the United States intends to remove Syria from the State Sponsor of Terrorism list. It's clear that this designation has been a roadblock to Syria's much-needed reconstruction and economic development — including from Syrian-Michiganders.

ICE is out of control. Putting them at polling places on Election Day is only going to invite more chaos and stop eligible Americans from voting. We need to pass my bill to stop that from happening.

I’ve heard from Minnesotans and local newspapers about how a new Trump mail delivery plan from the U.S. Postal Service will negatively impact them — making it slower and less reliable. That's your paycheck, Social Security benefits, medications and news. I'm urging the USPS to reverse this plan.

The President is trying to nationalize the elections to favor him and his party. And he won’t rule out sending the military to polling locations to interfere. I am fighting to stop that.

The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is a historic win for families. It includes my bill to help communities modernize zoning laws and expand housing development. By assisting local governments to remove barriers and plan for growth, we can build more houses and lower costs.

Terrible news this morning. Senator Graham spent his life serving our country, first in the Air Force and later in Congress. He was committed to public service. My prayers are with Senator Graham’s family, friends, staff, and the people of South Carolina. May he rest in peace.

Arizona isn't alone. More than 4 million have lost food assistance since Republicans' Big, Beautiful Betrayal—all so their billionaire donors could get a tax cut. Children are going hungry so the richest could get richer. This is the reality they fought for.

You can't protect endangered species while destroying the habitats they depend on to survive. By narrowing the definition of "harm" under the Endangered Species Act, this administration is making it harder to protect vulnerable wildlife and putting more species at risk of extinction.
