American leadership in medical research comes with the responsibility to never be satisfied while there are those suffering from sickness. I introduced the American Cures Act to provide steady funding for U.S. research agencies, allowing us to remain a leader in discovery & to give patients hope.

Spent some time back home in Arizona last week. Nothing beats being on the ground with the people I'm fighting for.

A ballroom he promised taxpayers wouldn't pay for. A wall he promised Mexico would. And now a no-bid contract for a favored pool contractor costing taxpayers millions more. Trump's art of the deal is, and always will be, a scam.

American families got another painful reminder this morning that the cost of living continues to be unaffordable. Inflation is up 3.8% and the pressure on household budgets is getting worse. (1/3)

Americans are already struggling to make ends meet, & now Trump's illegal war is driving up prices everywhere from the gas pump to the grocery store. Ending this war will protect our troops, lower costs, & rein in this lawless president.

Americans are paying over $4.50/gallon for gas because Trump refuses to end this war. If Republicans care at all about lowering costs and defending our troops, they will support Democrats’ War Powers Resolution to end this war with Iran.

This weekend I was honored to join hundreds of MN National Guard families whose loved ones are stationed overseas at a very special lunch sponsored by Serving Our Troops. Good to also see Rep. McCollum & Mayor Her. Thanks to Mancini’s & volunteers for serving steaks to our troops overseas as well.

The cost of this unnecessary war is falling on everyday Americans at the gas pump, the grocery store, and beyond. We need to put American families first — not this costly war.

And from the president who promised to bring prices down “on day one”… Another big jump in inflation and gas prices at $4.50.

Too often women’s health and wellbeing are an afterthought. During National Women’s Health Week, we must fight back against efforts to limit reproductive care so that women have access to the full scope of health care at every stage of life.

Roman Mongold survived 177 days trapped in Vovchansk’s kill zone, kept alive by weekly voice notes from his wife. We cannot look away from what Ukrainians are enduring, and we cannot abandon them in their fight for democracy.

For many Nevada families, high gas prices under Donald Trump’s leadership means they’re having to cancel vacations, skip going out to eat, and buy less. This will have a trickle down effect on our local economy. We need real solutions to bring down these prices at the gas pump.

“Uncertainty.” “Stress.” “Dread.” These are the words Americans used to describe the economy right now. All because of Donald Trump’s costly tariffs, disastrous war with Iran, and failed economic agenda.

This rollback is a blatant attack against the long-term health of our public lands. It is a slap in the face of participatory democracy! The West is drying up before us, and the Trump administration wants to undo these protections anyway. (1/2) www.nytimes.com/2026/05/11/c...

I just secured $1 billion for two major infrastructure projects in New York and authored strict provisions that will force the Trump administration to release the funds. It's time to put an end to Trump's destructive delays and make sure our federal dollars are used to build a stronger New York.

Pres. Trump’s unauthorized, senseless war with Iran is sending your costs soaring. Gas, groceries, clothing, & housing costs all keep climbing because of Trump & GOP. And they have no plan to fix it. Republicans must work w/ Dems to lower prices & fix Trump’s failing economy.

Americans are taking out loans for groceries, clothing, and other basic needs. Families should not have to go into debt just to get through the week. This is Trump’s economy, and working people are paying the price. thehill.com/business/583...

Instead of changing his policies, Donald Trump is trying to change the shape of the electorate. That's what wannabe dictators do when they feel their grip on power slipping.

One in five Americans lost their ACA health insurance because they couldn’t afford their premiums. Trump and MAGA Republicans killed the tax credits that made coverage more affordable. Now, American families are paying the price. We must restore the tax credits before more people become uninsured.

Each month Trump’s war drags on, the pain increases for American families. Republicans must vote with us this week to end the war and bring down these Trump-induced, skyrocketing costs.

This is Trump’s war tax on you: Higher gas prices. Higher grocery prices. Higher inflation. You’re paying for it - all because he started an illegal, costly war with no plan.

President Trump owns this increase. His war with Iran has skyrocketed oil and gas prices with no end in sight. Trump’s recklessness is costing Americans at the pump and at the supermarket.

Americans wanted prices to come down. Then, Trump started an unnecessary war with Iran that has killed U.S. servicemembers and is driving prices even higher. How much more pain is he willing to inflict on the American people? apnews.com/article/us-i...

Republicans don't want to talk about gas prices, just like how they don't want to talk about skyrocketing healthcare premiums or rising grocery bills. They're too scared to stand up to Trump, and the American people are paying the price.

12 days after gutting the Voting Rights Act, SCOTUS has turned back the clock in Alabama. Like Louisiana, this will dilute Black voting power and dismantle protections needed to fight discrimination. Another dark day for our democracy.

Help with daycare? Too expensive. Healthcare you can afford? Nope. But paying his friend millions of taxpayer dollars to paint the bottom of the Reflecting Pool? Absolutely. The corruption never ends.

Trump dragged America into an illegal, costly war without any goals or endgame and has the nerve to call it a “mini-war” The best way to lower costs and end the chaos is to end this war Democrats are forcing a 7th vote on our War Powers Resolution to withdraw U.S. troops from hostilities with Iran

President Trump promised his White House ballroom wouldn’t cost the American taxpayer a penny. Now, he’s pushing Republicans in Congress to allocate $1 billion for its construction. Just another one of his broken promises.

Republicans are racing to give Trump $1 billion for his ballroom & Trump is spending your tax dollars—not to lower your costs—but to repaint the Reflecting Pool. Are Republicans going to say anything or keep silently bending the knee?
