You would think the president would be using taxpayer dollars to make families’ lives more affordable, but no. He’s using your money for his campaign ads instead. This isn’t just insane—it’s flat-out illegal. time.com/article/2026...

Multibillion-dollar schemes like A7 are much easier when the United States simply gives up on countering Russian sanctions evasion. The Kremlin agent gloating in this story could show a bit more humility. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/24/b...

Americans everywhere are struggling to buy a home. And without the ability to buy a home, many of them can't build wealth. At today's American Growth Summit, I laid out the changes we need in Washington to give everyone a fair shot at the American dream.

RFK Jr. and the CDC delayed this year’s no-cost COVID-19 vaccine for kids—the latest move in their Make America Sick Agenda. Every child deserves to be protected from preventable disease. I'm demanding CDC answer for these delays immediately.

Wow. A new report reveals that President Trump's taxpayer-funded political TV ads are funded by the Department of Homeland Security. DHS should focus on threats like stopping fentanyl, not bankrolling yet another vanity project for the President. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

While I welcome the decision of OpenAI to scrap the release of its new model, without mandatory safety & testing standards, we’re just trusting the AI giants to do the right thing. I called on OpenAI to reconsider its release of GPT-6 Astra & am still waiting for answers to key questions:

Let's face it, Trump's surrounded by yes men who are afraid to speak truth to power. It's plagued his whole cabinet. And it’s the American people paying the price of his failed leadership.

With energy costs soaring nationwide, I’m pushing for federal heating assistance funding, which helps thousands of Minnesota families cover their heating costs during winter, to be released as quickly as possible. During a Minnesota winter, heating your home is a necessity, not a luxury.

The White House is using funds meant to protect the country from terror attacks to illegally fund campaign commercials. Another flagrant example of how this administration’s rampant corruption and lawlessness hurt our national security.

Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” sold out many rural hospitals in Michigan by making drastic cuts to Medicaid funding. These health care cuts will make it harder for Michiganders to receive care, and it was all to pay for tax cuts to billionaires. www.mlive.com/news/kalamaz...

Granite Staters should not have to choose between putting food on the table and keeping their homes warm this winter. With energy prices soaring due to the President’s reckless war in Iran, I’m pressing the Administration to release home heating assistance immediately.

College athletes have won new rights and a bigger voice, and they deserve both. But the rules changed fast, and the sports that don’t make money were left wondering whether they had a future.

Jack Smith deserves an apology for these baseless and FALSE accusations of perjury by my Republican colleague.

Most Americans would probably think that labeling $10 million worth of contraceptives as “abortion inducing” and then trying to set it on fire is crazy. But Trump literally did that. So I talked to some women about the future of birth control, and I think they agree–we should keep birth control!

No family should have to fight both a cancer diagnosis and their insurance company at the same time. Women—especially in rural communities like Michigan—should be able to get the genetic testing and specialty care they need to catch this disease early or prevent it altogether.

As Governor, I will fight to lower prescription drug costs and reduce premiums. And if Republicans in Congress don’t restore the federal health care tax credits, I’ll do it at the state level.

Nearly one year ago, Jack Smith volunteered to testify under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Finally, today, he will have that chance. Enough baseless conspiracy theories. Enough sham hearings. Time for answers about President Trump’s efforts to break the law.

Pilots and air traffic controllers operate under immense stress—and yet, they are far too often penalized for seeking the mental health care they need. The Senate just passed two bipartisan bills led by myself and Sen. John Hoeven to help fix that. www.reuters.com/business/hea...

Since Trump took office, New Jersey families have paid the price. Instead of bringing down costs and ending inflation, like he promised, he's just made life more expensive. This is the Trump Tax on you.

President Trump’s sloppy tariffs have cost us not once, but twice. And while some big companies got refunds, you still had to pay more. Let’s take a look at how these sloppy tariffs made you pay.

Late votes tonight but one good update: the Early Act (a breast cancer bill I lead w/Sen. Crapo and with House Lead Debbie Wasserman Schultz) passed through the Senate tonight and is headed to the House! It helps young women who are most at risk of getting breast cancer.

Another fossil fuel con job. Any savings on the front end get eaten up and spat out by excess costs of fuel, which go to — oh, right — Trump’s big corrupt fossil fuel donors. Fuel economy standards have saved drivers hundreds of billions of dollars. www.washingtonpost.com/transportati...

According to a new survey, Americans feel worse about the economy than during either the COVID-19 pandemic or the 2008 financial crisis. Meanwhile, Trump is fighting illegal wars and building golden ballrooms. Time for action on groceries, health care and housing. Not vanity.

The Postmaster General is being used as part of a much bigger story by President Trump, where the President does not believe the elections he loses are valid. The Postmaster General should not be a pawn in President Trump's authoritarian playbook. Read more: apnews.com/article/trum...

Remember when Trump said his war in Iran would last only four to five weeks? We’re now in month EIGHT, and the American people and our troops are paying the price. Last week, the Senate GOP had the chance to vote to end this illegal war, and instead voted to keep it going. They are complicit.

Under Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill, 300,000 Virginians are at risk of losing their health coverage. I introduced a sweeping health care bill to reverse these cuts, permanently extend enhanced ACA premium tax credits, and expand access to care.

The American people are asking what this war has accomplished. Are we closer to a strong and strict agreement to curtail Iran's nuclear ambitions? The answer is no. Are we now dealing with Iranian leaders who are less hardline? The answer is no.
