Millions have been forced to drop coverage due to congressional Republicans’ unwillingness to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits. Congress needs to provide relief to families struggling with high costs by restoring the tax credits that help make health care more affordable.

If this were Biden, there’d be a paragraph in there on his age and mental capacity; Trump always gets a pass, even in stories suggesting mental fatigue.

Last night, Senate Republicans FINALLY took us up on our offer to pay TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard while we work on basic reforms to ICE and Border Patrol. I'm glad Republicans let up, but the fight isn't over— we'll keep working to rein in a dangerous, out-of-control ICE.

Last night, the Senate unanimously passed the Democrat proposal to fund TSA, FEMA, the Coast Guard, and cyber security initiatives—without giving ICE and Border Patrol another dollar. I will keep fighting to hold Trump’s lawless federal agents accountable.

He says he wants to bring meritocracy back to our military. He says he has our warfighters' backs. But here he is, the most unqualified SecDef in history, denying troops a promotion that their fellow warfighters decided they've earned. Hegseth is a disgrace to our heroes.

Wait. Didn’t Donald Trump just call mail-in voting ‘cheating’?

Trump said the illegal war in Iran would take 4 to 6 weeks. We’re already there, yet he’s asking Congress for $200 billion more—enough for 100 days—and sending ground troops. This is not winding down. This is not a “little detour.” It’s escalation. And Trump has no idea how to end it.

I am so proud to represent incredible student-athletes across Maryland (although I will always be a loyal Duke Blue Devils fan!) But let's be honest: there is so much money in college sports these days. We need to protect our student-athletes, their health and safety, first.

A 60 day CR that locks in the status quo is dead on arrival in the Senate, and Republicans know it. We’ve been clear from day one: Democrats will fund critical Homeland Security functions, but we will not give a blank check to Trump’s lawless and deadly immigration militia without reforms.

This week, we showed that raising your voice works. We got Senate Republicans to fund the rest of DHS with NO additional funding for ICE or CBP. We’re still successfully blocking the SAVE Act. There’s a lot more we need to do, but these are two good steps.

Republicans claim their voter suppression bill is about keeping noncitizens from voting. That’s a lie. It’s about keeping CITIZENS from voting.

It’s bad enough that Kevin Warsh would be Trump’s sock puppet on the Fed. But did you know he was one of the architects of the 2008 Wall Street bailouts? Handing billions to the big banks while families lost their homes. Americans can’t afford to let Warsh repeat his failures.

Happy birthday, @wmata.com! A thriving public transit system is the lifeblood of our nation’s capital and entire metro area. I was proud to help extend the Silver Line, connecting customers to six new stations, including Dulles Airport. Here’s to another 50 years!

ICE operations make local police departments’ jobs harder by degrading trust in the community, and then those same departments get saddled with the cost of their mess when they leave. Our cities and our cops shouldn't have to pay the price for Trump's disastrous, chaotic immigration sweeps.

Deputy AG Blanche says he "cleaned house" at the FBI, removing anyone involved in prosecutions against Trump. This is how dictators act. The DOJ & FBI aren't the president’s attack dogs. They’re supposed to work for the people against the corruption that Trump represents.

Trump’s delusional denial of Jan 6 is infectious—installing a plaque honoring courageous Capitol police in the dead of night & force feeding judicial nominees canned responses. Their spineless falsehoods show they’re unfit for the federal bench, lacking independence & integrity.

Let’s be clear: Republicans have voted against Democrats’ proposals to pay TSA agents and fund FEMA and the Coast Guard 14 times. They control the Senate, the House and the White House—and have had every opportunity to end the pain of this shutdown.

President Trump claimed that his tariffs would revitalize manufacturing in the United States—100,000 lost manufacturing jobs tell a different story. The President's tariffs have done nothing except hurt our economy, leaving small businesses and hardworking families behind.

For over a month, Democrats fought to pay TSA, FEMA & Coast Guard workers. Republicans blocked every attempt — until airports descended into chaos. This deal doesn't go far enough, but it ensures federal workers get paid and airports stay open — without any funds for ICE or CBP.

This is what I’ve been fighting for: fund TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard while giving Republicans time to meet Americans’ demands for basic reforms to ICE and Border Patrol. I’m glad Republicans came to their senses, but it’s time to rein in the chaos and lawlessness of ICE.

Pres. Trump’s national security advisers warned him that attacking Iran could shut down the Strait of Hormuz. He did it anyway. Now the White House is scrambling to reopen it while our economy takes a hit, oil prices surge, and Trump's war expands.
