The explosion of sports betting & prediction markets is fueling a public health crisis in our country. I joined PBS to discuss legislative solutions to protect Americans from the mental, emotional, & financial toll of gambling addiction. pbs.org/deadlock

I’ll keep fighting to make sure every Nevadan can afford to see a doctor and get the medication they need.

Trump and Washington Republicans refused to extend the Affordable Care Act’s enhanced premium tax credits. Now that they’ve expired, many Americans are paying much higher premiums and delaying doctor’s visits – if they can afford health insurance at all.

I understand standing up to Trump&his minions may seem risky. But the Administration’s destructive policies deserve a retort. I subscribe to former Yale professor Tim Snyder’s first lesson in Tyranny: Do not obey in advance.

Seeming silence or even reticence on such despicable policies is hard to explain. I join in welcoming diversity of views on campus.

It was great sitting down with our spring interns in Colorado this week to hear their perspectives on the issues facing our state today. I’m grateful for their commitment to public service and continued dedication to showing up for Coloradans.

Pete Hegseth needs to go, NOW. Since the start of Trump's war in Iran, Hegseth has — without justification — continued firing some of our top military leaders. Our service members deserve better than a power-tripping warmonger who thinks war is a big video game. www.axios.com/2026/04/03/h...

Donald Trump should be focused on lowering costs, but instead he’s busy trying to put his name on your money. How does this help working families already drowning in this economy? Senator Jeff Merkley and I are pressing for answers.

If the administration can’t give a clear explanation for why it started this war with Iran, how will they know when it's over? When its goal has been achieved? Unless they just stop dropping bombs and somehow declare… victory. I'm prepared to use every tool I have in the Senate to get answers.

Stopped by the Bemidji Fire Department to thank our firefighters and first responders for their dedication during last summer’s storm. From emergency response to the long cleanup, they’ve been there every step of the way.

This contempt for basic decency & national security shows why we need legislative guardrails, as I’ve introduced. Prediction Markets are betting’s Wild West.

Trump wants to build a ballroom—I want to build more affordable housing, and only one of us sits on the Appropriations Committee. His budget is going right in the trash as far as I’m concerned.

No money for child care or health care, but a lot of money for a war no one wanted.

Giving anyone the ability to wager and make money if U.S. service members are rescued or not is sick and twisted. We need to ban these prediction market companies from hosting "markets" like this to begin with, and we need to ban any politician or government official from insider trading.

Look, no one likes to take their shoes off at the airport. But after getting rid of the “Shoes Off” policy, Noem’s own IG warned her that she created a “new security vulnerability.” This is how we end up with another Shoe Bomber. Safety must come first.

It's the 77th anniversary of NATO—a key alliance that keeps America safe. Even if Trump tries, he can't back out of it, thanks to my bipartisan legislation that was signed into law to prevent any U.S. President from unilaterally withdrawing without approval from Congress.

Nobody knows more about Epstein than @jkbjournalist.bsky.social. She’s absolutely right: the American people can’t lose sight of the fact that the Trump administration is covering up for pedophiles. Keep the pressure up. Follow the money.

At the Bemidji Fire Station, I presented Kev and Dave of KB101 with the Broadcasters Crystal Award for Community Service. KB101 is the only radio station in the country to win this award 7 times!! Well-deserved recognition for their work keeping people safe and informed during last summer’s storm.

Trump wants half a billion to renovate the White House while you struggle to afford your rent and mortgage. For that money, we could have thousands of new affordable homes and new affordable childcare centers near them. He cares only about himself.

My mom used to talk about how she had to crawl towards Medicare. Forcing Americans to wait until they're 65 to get their medical procedures done is wrong. Republicans had endless chances to help Democrats bring costs down and refused. We need to fix this Republican health care crisis.

Earlier this week I heard from students in NJ. For many of them, working the night shift before class or having two jobs is routine. They are struggling to afford gas, groceries, childcare, and tuition. Life is too expensive for too many. We need to focus on the American people.

President Trump has spent $25 billion of your taxpayer money on this reckless war with Iran. That’s $25 billion we can’t spend on health care, food assistance, or education.

After the accident, he was detained & ICE now refuses to allow his attorneys to meet with him privately, a clear denial of the due process rights afforded to all under our Constitution. ICE tactics are endangering our communities & violating the Constitution. [2/2]

Anyone who has had a family member with Alzheimer's knows how hard that journey can be. We need to invest in finding a cure and improving care for Alzheimer's patients. I met with Duluth faculty and students at UMD medical school where they're advancing that mission for people in every zip code.

We can make a bipartisan deal on transfers, eligibility, NIL, safety & protecting women’s & Olympic sports. But the NCAA needs to stop playing games with phony Executive Orders & partisan bills, & instead come to the table & negotiate.
