As the North Shore rebuilds from the Kona low storms, I'm proud to see the North Shore Huakai program do what Hawaii does best: coming together to support our communities and neighbors. Supporting local businesses while exploring the North Shore all for $5! What could be better?

Millions of Americans are being crushed by housing costs. Donald Trump called their crisis “a big yawn”—then refused to sign the most significant bipartisan housing bill in decades. His priorities couldn’t be clearer: higher costs for families and more power for himself.

Donald Trump cares so little about bringing down YOUR housing costs that he’s refusing to sign the biggest housing bill in 30 years. The good news: it’s going to become law anyway.

You can do both at the Michigan State Apple Developer Academy and the Manufacturing Academy in Detroit. This week, I met students who aren’t just learning to code and build new apps – they’re building businesses, solving real-world problems, and creating new opportunities right here in Michigan.

Michigan must must must retain and attract more young people. It’s existential for us. That’s why it’s critical to train the next generation of innovators, and to advance how we do our bread-and-butter manufacturing into the 21st century.

This is absolutely ridiculous but we see it for what it is — Another desperate power grab from Trump to undermine our elections and democracy. He will do anything he can to cheat and hold onto power.

He is gutting the independent agency that certifies voting systems and helps election officials run secure elections. Senate Democrats will fight this power grab at every turn. The American people—not Donald Trump—will decide the 2026 election.

Donald Trump said Republicans should “take over the voting.” Today, he took another step toward doing exactly that. Firing every remaining member of the bipartisan Election Assistance Commission months before the midterms is a brazen attempt to seize control of our elections before a vote is cast.

We know that ICE lies—because they lie constantly. I am DEMANDING that ICE release all of the footage related to Lorenzo Salgado Araujo's killing. There needs to be an independent investigation immediately.

If these reports are accurate, removing every remaining commissioner just months before the 2026 midterm elections is an extraordinary step that demands an immediate explanation from the admin and raises profound concerns about political interference in the institutions that support our elections.

Disaster relief should never be political. The President is leaving Americans to pick up the pieces after disasters based on petty political grievances. The politicization of disaster aid is disgraceful and shameful.

On Tuesday, another person was killed by Trump's ICE operation. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot & killed on his way to work. Americans deserve answers. There must be an independent investigation & ALL findings must be shared. The killing with impunity must stop.

ICE shot Lorenzo Salgado Araujo on his way to work, a proud father doing his best to provide for his family for 35 years. This cannot keep happening. We need a full and independent investigation.

Canada's boycott of California wine is causing devastating harm to winegrowers. I'm urging the Canadian government to recognize that California doesn’t agree with these tariff wars, to lift these restrictions, and increase consumer options to strengthen both our economies.

Like many Vermonters, I’m remembering the brutal floods that devastated our state in July 2023 and 2024. I joined Climate Action Campaign to hear from Vermonters impacted by extreme weather. Our path is clear: we must take urgent climate action and reform our recovery process.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was a husband and father who called Houston home for over 30 years. An ICE agent shot and killed him on his way to work. My heart goes out to his family. We need a full, independent investigation — and we must end ICE's violence.

They let Trump waste nearly $1 billion in taxpayer dollars to retrofit and operate his luxury jet and yet it’s still not secure. When the Senate returns, we must pass the Presidential Airlift Security Act and ensure that not another cent goes toward maintaining Trump’s national security nightmare.
- CS
That’s why I introduced the Presidential Airlift Security Act, which would prohibit the use of any foreign plane to be utilized as Air Force One. Republicans refused to join our effort to block taxpayer funding for the jet.
- CS
A year ago, I warned that this $400 million Qatari jet was not simply the largest, most corrupt foreign bribe to an American president in history – it was also a grave national security risk.

Trump’s shameless self-enrichment has turned into a serious national security threat. His rampant, reckless, and rotten corruption comes at a real cost to our safety and Americans’ bank accounts.
