Erdogan ordered Turkey’s police to raid the opposition party’s HQ days after a kangaroo court ousted the opposition leader. We cannot keep ignoring Turkey’s descent into authoritarianism. We must stand for the people's right to democracy for allies & adversaries alike.

I heard from families, farmers, & butchers across Upstate NY on how beef monopolies are driving up prices. I’m leading @democrats.senate.gov in the Family Grocery & Farmer Relief Act to break up meatpacking monopolies & stop these unfair practices that rig the game against working families.

Thinking of Sally Ride on her birthday today. Sally’s passion for science and exploration led her to become the first American woman in space. Sally was a talented astronaut and an inspiration for so many young women across the world.

The war in Ukraine has real implications for U.S. national security. If Russia wins that war, Vladimir Putin will feel he has the green light to attack a NATO Ally, and President Xi will feel emboldened to move on Taiwan.

Stars & Stripes has provided invaluable coverage of our nation’s military for over 150 years. The editorial independence of Stars & Stripes is non-negotiable, no matter what Secretary Hegseth may think. www.semafor.com/article/05/2...

When even U.S. Senators are targeted, every American should understand: no one is safe from ICE’s abuses. It’s why I’m fighting tooth-and-nail against additional funds for Trump’s rogue police forces.

ICE's treatment of detainees at Delaney Hall in New Jersey is the latest in a long line of abuses we've seen across the country. When @kim.senate.gov stood up & called out these abuses, they pepper sprayed him. Not another dime for this lawless agency.

More than half of Americans are cutting back on feeding their families, yet instead of trying to help them, this administration wants Americans to pay billions for a ballroom and payouts to criminals.

Donald Trump’s rogue ICE and CBP are already sitting on an unused $100 billion that Republicans handed them in their Betrayal Bill last year. Now, Republicans want to give them another $70 billion blank check.

As Americans, we will have political differences. But two values always unite us: our respect for our country, and our respect for the men and women who serve it.

No one should need to skip prescriptions or doctor's visits just to stay afloat. This data confirms what we already know – families are hurting. But when folks need help the most, Trump remains focused on his own selfish agenda.

Making it harder for immigrants to get a green card through arbitrary requirements is yet another attempt by the Trump Administration to continue its cruel mass deportation agenda. This new policy will tear apart more families, hurt our economy, and must be overturned.

One basic thing to look at is insurance markets, determined by companies’ fiduciary obligations and business interests. Insurance markets are starting to fail, with companies withdrawing, non-renewing and raising rates in climate-risk regions. (That moves on to mortgage and real estate markets, btw)

Donald Trump is STILL conniving his way into setting up a private slush fund of $1,800,000,000 tax dollars to pay criminals who tried to overthrow our democracy. Absolutely despicable.

Trump's multi-billion-dollar slush fund is the most brazen act of self-dealing corruption we've ever seen. We need to shut it down before he uses it to pay cop beaters, cronies, and other criminals. I'm introducing legislation to stop it. www.semafor.com/article/05/2...

The President has made hundreds of millions of dollars in stock trades this year in companies his own Administration regulates — then he uses his platform to influence the market. It's blatant corruption.

Voting is a right, not a privilege. The SAVE Act won’t save anything. It will strip Americans of their right to vote. We have to fight back to protect our democracy.

For $1 billion, we could build affordable housing for 5,000 Americans, but Senate Republicans would rather spend it on Trump's gold-plated ballroom. Your tax dollars should be used to invest in our communities, not build party venues for the Epstein class.

The Ebola outbreak in the DRC shows why President Trump’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization and humanitarian aid cuts are a big mistake. Infectious diseases don't know borders, and the Trump-Vance Admin’s chaotic and anti-science health policies make us all less safe.

Just one week after tobacco giant Reynolds donated $5 million to MAGA Inc. and dined with Trump at his golf club, President Trump directed FDA to authorize the sale of flavored vapes. This corruption is poisoning our kids and unleashing a new wave of addiction on America.

Not this nonsense again. Shutting down customs at major U.S. airports would hurt millions of American businesses, workers, and families — not to mention totally upend international travel. Another example of Trump making life harder when he should be lowering costs.

Democrats have provided reflexive & unconditional support to Netanyahu & Israeli governments, even as they undermined the values we claimed to stand for. It's time to end taxpayer-funded support & condition arms sales to end the occupation & salvage a 2-state solution.
