I’m very proud to have secured nearly $259 million in federal dollars for California projects for fiscal year 2026 that will help expand fire safety, build affordable housing, and create economic opportunity across the Golden State.

Handing special education to RFK, Jr. is a terrible idea. He has no experience in education, and even worse, has spread dangerous conspiracy theories about people with disabilities. We cannot allow this administration to continue its cruel crusade to abolish the Education Department.

Last year, we liberated the Kennedy Center. Now, Trump’s name is off the building, his hand-picked director gone, and we’re still celebrating Pride!

Trump promised lower costs on Day 1. A year and a half later, inflation is sky-high and working Americans are struggling to buy basic essentials.

Glad to see the Pentagon once again recognize Peterson Space Force Base as one of the best-run military installations in the country. I'll keep doing everything I can to support their mission and Colorado's military community. www.koaa.com/news/local-n...

Just remember: when Trump said he "lifted" families off of SNAP—he really means he cut them out of it. Now over 800,000 kids—AT LEAST—aren’t getting the help they need.

The SAVE Act isn't a voter identification bill; it's a voter suppression bill.

Trump and his family have raked in MILLIONS from their crypto schemes, profiting off the presidency. I wrote the End Crypto Corruption Act to make sure NO President can use their elected office to line their own pockets.

As a geologist, I’ll translate: the White House demolished a perfectly fine, historic walkway and replaced it with expensive granite. Americans want cheaper gas and groceries, and Trump keeps wasting your money on vanity projects.

I joined Mayor Norton at Rochester Community and Technical College, alongside leaders representing the many paths to success that power Minnesota's economy — from biotech and the skilled trades to agriculture. As Governor, I'll strengthen those pathways and build the workforce Minnesota needs.

988 saves lives. It’s why I fought to create this 3-digit hotline. Seeing the great work being done by Wisconsinites in Green Bay reaffirms why this critical lifeline is much needed. fox11online.com/news/local/s...

A strong economy needs pathways to good jobs. That’s why today I’m announcing my plan to Prepare Minnesota’s Workforce for the Future: 10,000 new apprenticeships, proven K-12 Curriculum to raise math & reading academic achievement, and pathways and degrees that connect graduates to good-paying jobs.

I'm glad USPS reversed its decision and will keep postal services at Hunt's Silver Lake Drug in Rochester. I worked to keep this post office open because all Minnesotans deserve reliable mail service.

Inflation just hit a 3-year high, nearly double what it was before Trump's tariffs. Health care, food, gas, and housing—all up in May. Americans deserve lower costs, but Trump is raising them.

AI safety requires Congressional action—as many seem to believe, but avoid supporting specifics. The Hawley-Blumenthal framework provides a good beginning.

Congress passed a law to help lower housing costs. But Trump is holding it hostage. He doesn’t care about affordability. He wants unprecedented power over elections, even if it means disenfranchising millions of eligible American voters.

Republicans want women to be silent about the suffering happening under GOP abortion bans. I will never stop uplifting the voices of women. We have to make sure their stories are impossible to ignore.

Musk must be held accountable for Tesla crashes & misleading pitches about Full Self Driving. NHTSA is often too long & lax in investigating crashes. Musk’s self driving MO: over promise & under deliver.

It always brings a smile to my face when I pick my boys up from summer camp and get to hear about their adventures. Every kid should have these opportunities. That's why I introduced the Summer Camp for All Act to make sure ALL kids are able to build these memories.

We cannot let this become normalized. This kind of toxicity in our politics is way over the line, especially when children are involved and this should be condemned. My heart goes out to Pete, Chasten, and their whole family. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Our public lands aren't for sale to fund billionaire tax breaks. Not now. Not ever. When MAGA Republicans tried to sell off our public lands we fought them and won. These lands should be cherished and preserved for future generations to enjoy.

He is demanding state ownership of companies. Has a corrupt politburo of cronies and enablers that are getting rich. He does have a penchant for military parades and banners with his face. And he’s ripping off the people. He’s well on his way.

Happy Equality Day, California! On the 11th anniversary of the Supreme Court's Obergefell v. Hodges decision, we honor those who fought to affirm the fundamental right that Americans should be able to marry who they love. We must continue the fight to protect the freedoms of LGBTQ+ Americans.

From his Big, Beautiful Bill that gave tax cuts to billionaires at the expense of Americans’ health care, to his refusal to extend ACA tax credits, millions are losing coverage & paying more for care. You get sick, billionaires get rich, that's the Trump playbook.

Today is the anniversary of the landmark Obergefell decision—expanding the constitutional right to same-sex marriage and equal protection under the law. As we celebrate this milestone for LGBTQ+ equality, now more than ever we must continue fighting for equal rights and to protect our democracy.

From our schools to our small businesses, TPS holders are part of what makes Maryland so strong. Yesterday’s decision abandons law-abiding people who have built their lives here and threatens Marylanders across the state. We cannot turn our backs on our neighbors when they need us most.

I am outraged by reports that DEA allowed fentanyl into our communities. When even a small amount can be deadly, failing to seize it presents an unconscionable risk to New Mexicans. I’m demanding an independent review of what happened, and I’ll stay on this until we’re sure things have changed.

Trump’s illegal war in Iran is hurting Americans at the pump, the grocery store, and everywhere in between. Trump ran on lowering costs. Instead he’s raising them.

To put it plainly, yesterday this out-of-control SCOTUS ruled that the right to carry a gun is more important than a state's right to protect its people. Our country is awash in guns, and these decisions do nothing to make us safer.
