Trump’s extreme immigration agenda already defies American values, and the Supreme Court just added fuel to the fire. They’re letting Trump revoke TPS for those fleeing danger and turn away those legally seeking asylum at ports of entry. This is not who we are.

Yesterday’s ruling is clear: USPS cannot determine who is a citizen or which ballots get delivered. States run elections, not the federal government. President Trump and USPS must comply, and they should drop this dangerous effort for good. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/25/u...

As we gear up for the 4th anniversary of the creation of the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, I was happy to meet with the folks in Green Bay who are on the front lines, answering the calls and helping Wisconsinites in crisis get the help they need.

AI is moving fast, and Congress needs to do the same. I'm proud my bipartisan NO FAKES Act to protect every American from nonconsensual AI deepfakes is moving through the Senate, and I'll keep pushing to get it passed this year.

We keep hearing the economy is great and the best it’s ever been. Tell that to the person who’s skipping meals because they can’t afford groceries. I’m fighting to pass my Working Americans Tax Cut Act to put money back in your pocket.

The cost of everything is up, and energy prices are no exception. My bipartisan legislation would ensure federal funding from 2 critical programs is made available without delay so that communities and families can benefit from energy efficiency upgrades that lower utility bills.

TPS recipients are our neighbors. They're contributing members of our communities who've raised families here & opened businesses. After the Trump-stacked SCOTUS's terrible decision, we must stand with them & end the legal limbo they've too long endured.

I believe in the groundbreaking concept that a full day’s work should entitle you to a living wage. Proud to be leading the effort for a $25 federal minimum wage with @chrismurphyct.bsky.social.

Tina Peters doesn’t deserve a dime of your taxpayer money. She deserves to be in jail. We led the fight that forced the White House to back down from its disgraceful slush fund for election criminals and the Jan. 6 rioters. And we'll keep fighting until it's dead permanently.

A federal court just blocked President Trump’s unconstitutional order to restrict Americans’ right to vote by mail. Today’s ruling is a win for voters across America, but this struggle is not over.

The price tag of Trump's war with Iran has already cost the American people so much, in high gas prices and lives lost. Now he's asking for almost $70 billion more. Not to help you in the struggle to afford health care and groceries.

11 years ago, the Supreme Court affirmed what we already knew to be true: in the land of the free, everyone should be able to marry the person they love. As we celebrate how far we’ve come, we have to defend our progress and keep pushing this fight forward.

Two issues with this: 1. Black's own attorneys told my investigators that Epstein's advice was shoddy at best and often needed double checking. 2. Black paid Epstein astronomically more than his other world-class tax advisors. Why was he paying Epstein like the CEO of a Fortune 100 company?

Costs are too high & Trump’s policies are only making it worse. The simple truth is: Americans can’t afford Trump’s recklessness & carelessness. It’s past time Republicans helped Dems advance real solutions for working families.

Yesterday's Supreme Court decision allowing the Trump Admin to strip protections from immigrants who hold legal status will put hundreds of thousands of people at risk of losing their ability to work or even being deported.

Wonder why Trump bailed on signing our housing affordability bill into law this week? Well, this and because he wants to kick millions of American citizens off the voter rolls to rig the November election for himself.

Donald Trump’s DOJ just cleared Paramount's takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery. A few days later, David Ellison — the man behind Paramount — was at Trump’s birthday bash. We can't let Trump and his buddies control what's on our screens. This fight isn’t over.

The biggest form of theft in America? Corporate wage theft. Workers are robbed of an estimated $50 BILLION EVERY YEAR! And Trump's answer has been to give the green light for employers to steal from workers—so I've got a bill to make sure workers get the pay they've earned.
