I strongly support EXIM. As the Senate Banking Committee and Congress work to reauthorize the bank, it’s critical for EXIM to be transparent and for there to be safeguards against potential corruption and potential conflicts of interest. I'm pressing for answers.

I cannot support a blank check for Trump's illegal war in Iran and fast-tracking deeply troubling and dangerous surveillance collaboration with Netanyahu’s government. I voted no.

Millions of Americans have already been kicked off their health care coverage or seen their health care costs jacked up under Republicans, and it’s only going to get worse. We can and must do better. wisconsinexaminer.com/2026/07/13/r...

We know how powerful and fast-moving the fires are up north right now, and everyone should follow evacuation orders. Tonight I spoke with the Chief of the U.S. Forest Service about more resources for our brave local crews.

SBA Administrator Loeffler claimed @sba-gov.bsky.social hasn't heard from small businesses that are struggling because of Trump's tariff taxes. We have the receipts. Main Street is suffering. Trump must be held accountable.

What Todd Blanche has done to our Justice Department under Trump should disqualify him from becoming Attorney General. I break it down: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXti...

Another $350 BILLION for the Pentagon while Americans are selling their blood to get by. I’m a no.

Our communities need all the resources they can get to combat this devastating wildfire season. We saw this firsthand visiting Beulah. Trump’s cuts to the Forest Service and his politicization of FEMA funding puts the safety of Americans last.

New Yorkers have been forced to spend 40% more or an additional $2.2 BILLION on gas since Trump started his war with Iran. Now, Trump's chaos is driving prices up again. When will Trump put working Americans first?

This Russia sanctions bill is a one-two punch that's really going to put pressure on Putin. It comes at a time when there's real momentum on behalf of Ukraine. Russia's losing over 30,000 casualties a month in Ukraine. This is a real opportunity to get Putin to the table.

Congress must pass our bipartisan bill as soon as possible to hold buyers of Russian oil accountable for bankrolling Putin's war and increase pressure on him to end it.

Backing Ukraine today is the best way to deter authoritarian aggression tomorrow — and secure a future where Europe is whole, free, and at peace.

Congress cannot continue to allow this President to put our troops in danger without the consent of the American people.

Granite Staters do not want our nation to be indefinitely entangled in Trump’s war with Iran. That’s why today, I voted against beginning debate on a National Defense Authorization Act that would have done nothing to curb President Trump’s ability to wage this illegal war.
- MH
What’s more, it's clear that the President does not have any real plan to get us out of this war any time soon – instead, he has veered wildly between strategies, touting potential peace deals one day and issuing unhinged threats the next.

Almost five months ago, Donald Trump bypassed Congress to launch his illegal, reckless, and poorly thought-out war with Iran. American service members have died, American consumers and businesses have seen gas prices skyrocket, and yet Americans are less safe than they were before the war began.

70 million Americans rely on Social Security. But their monthly benefits will be cut by $450 in just six years. We cannot allow that to happen. Today, I introduced the PROMISE Act, a bipartisan measure that would finally begin the process to save Social Security and protect a critical lifeline.

Sen. Ossoff: If the President calls Georgia's senators illegitimate, he is calling Georgia's voters illegitimate. Donald Trump tried to commit voter fraud in Georgia when he badgered Brad Raffensperger to "find" him the exact number of votes he needed to win in a state he had lost.

This cannot be business as usual. That's why I joined my Senate Democratic colleagues today in voting against the first procedural vote on the annual defense bill.

I will do everything I can to fight President Trump's reckless war with Iran. Congress passed a War Powers Resolution to end it. But the President is ignoring that vote, forcing American taxpayers to foot the bill for his blunder.

Trump defunded our public lands and now he’s using his reckless defunding to justify stripping protections from our National Monuments. Next stop…public lands selloff? Time to make some noise, people!

Sen. DURBIN: What do courtrooms say about unmet security concerns? Justice BARRETT: That’s part of their budget request. They’re in great need. Justice KAGAN: Lower federal courts have some significant concerns. Durbin: Very much so.

Maryland is home to thousands who serve our nation, and I’m proud of the wins I secured for them in the NDAA. But I cannot support a bill that pours over $1 trillion into fueling a war Congress has voted to end, while hardworking Americans continue paying the price.

100,000 Virginians have lost their health care since Trump & Republicans purposefully stripped away tax credits from millions across the country. We will never give up on trying to restore them. I will keep working to get us to universal coverage.

Sen. DURBIN: Tomorrow we’re considering Todd Blanche’s nomination. He has said the courts are full of ‘rogue activist judges’ and the Trump Administration is ‘at war’ with the federal judiciary. That kind of rhetoric is unacceptable on either side of the table, Democratic or Republican.

Yesterday, the President claimed he was going to charge a 20% toll on traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, then backtracked. Despite asking Congress for billions to backfill the Iran war, it appears the Pentagon doesn’t know how it will use foreign funds to enforce a military blockade.

If Todd Blanche wants to be Trump’s lawyer, fine. But he can’t be Attorney General and personal attorney for Trump. He's shown he’s totally unfit to be Attorney General.

Senate Democrats just sent a clear message: the day after Trump notifies the extension of this unauthorized war, defies bipartisan majorities in Congress, and refuses to level with the American people about the cost, the mission, or the endgame, we will not proceed as if business is usual.

Trump is expecting Congress to look the other way and ignore his illegal war, just days after he tore up his own ceasefire deal and dramatically escalated the fighting. We won’t look away.

Donald Trump is dragging America deeper into a war in Iran with no authorization, no plan, and no exit strategy. Democrats will not go along. thehill.com/policy/defen...

Int’l monitors have documented hundreds of these incidents in recent years, including in CA and across our nation. More countries are engaging in threats, intimidation, and violence inside other nations. This legislation would respond to & deter this growing threat & help keep it from our shores.

Democrats are fighting to delay this heartless SNAP cost shift and ensure kids can get the food they need to grow, learn, and thrive.

No kid should go to bed hungry, but because of Trump and Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill, 1.5 MILLION kids have lost access to SNAP in just the past year. Every Democrat voted AGAINST this, but now 1.5 million kids are hungrier thanks to Trump and Republicans. www.cbpp.org/research/foo...

All that extra money Trump is making families pay by stomping on low-cost-to-drive EVs (never mind the damage to U.S. auto industry in international competition, where EV sales are soaring and China dominates).
