“Small potatoes.” That’s how Donald Trump feels about the war he started in Iran. Tell that to the families of the 18 troops we’ve lost, the hundreds of wounded servicemembers, and the Americans suffering every single day from record high prices. There's nothing small about it.

This Labor Day, instead of enjoying the long weekend, too many Americans are looking for ways to make extra income just to make ends meet. Why? Because of Trump's failure of an economy.

$5.84 a gallon for diesel is a new all-time high. Donald Trump and JD Vance own this. And instead of taking responsibility, they want you to be grateful for it.

This is yet another reason ICE needs wholesale reforms to ensure ICE hires don’t put our communities at risk and are held accountable for their actions every step of the way. step of the way.

In their rush to meet arrest quotas ICE cut corners and hired officers without basic vetting leading to the abuses and deaths we’ve seen on our streets.

In its latest attempt to destroy the integrity of our elections, the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to allow mail-in ballot limits. American voters will pick their leaders—not Donald Trump. My statement:

Rather than making life more affordable, Trump has led a full-fledged assault on American education: defunding it, radicalizing its agenda, and dismantling it. Instead of attacking our schools he should be building them up. We'll keep fighting to ensure every child has access to a good education.

These reports are troubling and I am demanding that CENTCOM immediately open a fact-finding investigation. Secretary Hegseth needs to understand that these types of internal checks reflect our values and make the DOD stronger.

I’m heartbroken to hear of the passing of my friend Gloria Steinem. I was fortunate to know her well over the years. Through decades of advocacy, she never stopped fighting for a better, more equal society. My heart is with her loved ones and everyone she inspired.

Health care costs are expected to skyrocket by 8.2% in 2027. That’s the highest increase for employers in TWO DECADES. Under Donald Trump and Republicans, the cost of living keeps climbing higher and higher, with no relief in sight.

As Trump doubles down on his trade war: inflation is raging, families are struggling, small businesses are closing. @democrats.senate.gov have fought Trump's tariffs at every turn, and we will fight to pass the End Trump Tariff Act to finally free Americans from his tariff tax.
- CS
In just one year, Trump’s tariff tax has cost the average family nearly $2,000. That's why I'm introducing the End Trump’s Tariff Tax Act that would end the pain of Trump's costly tariffs—including his latest tariffs on Canada.

The MAGA Supreme Court is rubberstamping Trump’s corrupt, gilded ballroom. Families’ costs are soaring, and Trump’s priorities are clear: his ballroom over your bills. Democrats are fighting to cut costs. Trump is fighting for himself.

🚨Military leaders are sounding the alarm, warning Pete Hegseth about the long-term damage of extending Trump’s reckless war in Iran. Stop putting Americans at risk. End the war now.

Month after month, lie after lie. The truth? This is another endless Middle East war brought to you by Donald Trump. We must end this war now.

6 months in, Trump’s disastrous war in Iran has accomplished nothing but the depletion of American stockpiles and the weakening of our military standing. That’s what I call an abject failure.

While the Trump administration spews blatant lies about their failure in Iran, the reality is that 6 months in, the Iranians are holding the Strait hostage, gas is up to record highs, and 18 servicemembers have died – all while Trump still has no strategy to end the disaster of a war he started.
- CS
It’s been 6 months since Trump initiated a war with Iran that has put American servicemembers at risk, caused gas prices to skyrocket and created global instability.

A federal judge just blocked Trump from implementing his dangerous executive order designed to disrupt voting by mail and throw this year’s election into chaos. We will continue to fight this in court for as long as it takes to ensure that every American can vote freely and fairly.

Inflation increasing. The Iran war raging on with no end in sight. A trade war with Canada. And what does Trump want? To rename Lake Ontario. Donald Trump’s personal grievances first, Americans last.

Now Canada is pushing back, and prices of everyday goods are bound to skyrocket even further for millions of Americans. All while Trump continues to call the affordability crisis a “hoax.”

Donald Trump started an aimless trade war with Canada based on personal grievances, thinking he could do whatever he wanted with no consequences.

Senate Democrats will fight every attempt to hijack mail-in voting and rig the rules before voters have their say this November.
- CS
Trump’s malicious effort to stop mail-in voting is nothing but election interference in broad daylight. He wants to make it harder for Americans to vote so they don’t hold him accountable for the skyrocketing costs, illegal war, and rampant corruption that are a hallmark of his administration.
- CS
It’s a disgrace that the highest court in the nation is allowing Trump to put a dagger into the heart of our democracy. Trump’s effort to turn the Postal Service into a voter suppression machine is blatantly unconstitutional – yet his MAGA Supreme Court is refusing to stop it from going forward.

Economic warfare against one of our closest allies that will hurt families and American manufacturers in New York, Ohio, Michigan, Maine, and so many other states. Will the Republicans from those states join us to stop this insanity?

America would be better off with more people like Lara Korte exercising freedom of the press and fewer people like Pete Hegseth trying to stop them.

Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump will stop at nothing to suppress free speech. I commend Ms. Korte for her bravery and commitment to reporting the truth despite the rampant pressure and intimidation she faced from the Department of Defense.

Trump’s chaotic trade wars are bleeding the American people dry, and now he’s coming back for more. Trump just slapped another bill on hardworking American families — who are already crushed by his skyrocketing costs. This nonsense with Canada should have never gone into effect. It must end now.

The MAGA Supreme Court is rubber stamping Trump’s vanity-driven, gilded corruption. As costs skyrocket, the administration is wasting money on an endless and illegal war, corporate giveaways, and Trump’s pet projects.

While Americans struggle to make ends meet, Trump has already added more than $2 billion to his own pocket. He’s not draining the swamp, he is the swamp. It’s corruption at the highest level.
