Civilizations fail when resources fail. For them, in a simpler world, it was sub-Saharan aquifers. For us, in a complex world, it’s climate stability. Climate stability is an essential resource for human well-being.

One year ago, Trump passed his “One Big Beautiful Bill.” It slashed healthcare and food assistance from millions of people all to make millionaires and billionaires even richer. Remember that.

This is a win for democracy. Both Red and Blue states around the country have been allowing states to count ballots mailed by Election Day for decades. Despite President Trump’s best efforts, your voice deserves to be heard.

Dairy farmers are the backbone of New Hampshire’s agricultural sector. As we near the end of National Dairy Month, I remain committed to this essential industry that works to supply all Granite Staters with access to fresh, locally produced milk products.

Mail-in voting is safe and secure. As governor of Colorado, we created the gold-standard mail-in voting system because we know every American deserves to have their voices heard. Today’s decision reinforces that every vote counts and states have the right over their own elections.

The Supreme Court ruled today that states can count timely postmarked ballots arriving after Election Day. Voting should be easy and accessible for all. As the Trump administration pushes to limit mail voting, we must keep fighting to protect every American's right to vote.

President Trump promised, again and again, that he would lower costs for Americans ‘on day one.’ In reality, the President’s chaotic policies have cost Illinoisans more than $3,400 according to the Joint Economic Committee.

Good news – the Supreme Court shut down one of the Admin’s ongoing attempts to limit vote by mail, a safe and secure method of voting used in NV and across the country. All eligible voters have a right to make their voice heard, and Trump won’t get away with his attacks on Americans’ voting rights.

Congress just passed one of the most important housing bills in decades that will lower costs for Granite Staters and expand housing supply across the country. Now, all that’s left is for the President to sign it—which he’s refused to do for nearly a week.

Once again, SCOTUS makes the pro-corruption decision. Regulatory decisions that have for decades been trustworthy are now amenable to political fix by a president’s henchmen, in this dark-money political world.

The court has affirmed what we have known all along: states have the right to set rules for counting ballots when they are received. The Supreme Court affirmed both a key element of by-mail voting and the constitutional authority of states to administer their elections. (1/3)

I’m glad the Supreme Court affirmed that ballots mailed by election day will still be counted. Millions of Americans rely on mail-in ballots as a safe and secure way to make their voices heard. I’ll continue to work hard to keep our elections fair and free from interference.

Supreme Court decides Congress has no power to put restrictions on positions Congress creates (once again reversing precedent). Building an imperial presidency and stripping power from the people’s representatives is a hell of a way to celebrate the 250th. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

President Trump’s politically motivated criminal investigation of Lisa Cook, without cause, is all about his abuse of power and intimidation tactics. Due to his failed economic policies, the President continues to attack the integrity and independence of the Federal Reserve.
