President Trump promised that Liberation Day tariffs would bring back jobs and lower prices for American families. One year later, prices are up, families are struggling, and small businesses are facing increasing uncertainty. www.npr.org/2026/04/02/n...

One year after President Trump’s “Liberation Day,” it is clear: Trump’s tariff policies failed. Families in Maryland are paying on average $1,744 more because of these tariffs. We are living through an affordability crisis thanks to this Administration’s ineptitude.

We could take care of America’s children, seniors, and the most vulnerable. Trump couldn't care less.

Hundreds of thousands of veterans rely on the Post-9/11 GI Bill program to pay for higher education, but we haven't raised the stipends for books and supplies since 2008. We want to fix that so our veterans receive increased financial support in the face of rising costs.

Great to be in Kingman with veterans at my town hall. What I keep hearing across Arizona is the same: they're worried about VA benefits and the care they earned. Real concerns. I promise, I'll keep showing up.

Pam Bondi turned our Department of Justice into the Department of Corruption, protecting pedophiles and going after Trump's enemies list at the expense of the American people. Good riddance. Now, fire Hegseth.

Owning a home shouldn’t just be a dream, yet I constantly hear from Wisconsinites who say it’s simply out of reach. I was with NeighborWorks in Green Bay to discuss these challenges and the bill I just voted for to make housing more affordable.

One year since so-called "Liberation Day" and the results are in. Everything has gotten more expensive while American manufacturing jobs disappear. I would submit that it's a strange liberation and a curious freedom that raises prices and leaves you unemployed.

But she did such a great job covering up the Epstein Files...

Bondi is out. She blatantly used the Justice Department to retaliate against Trump’s political enemies, but even she didn’t go far enough for him. It’s hard to imagine what might come next, but it can’t be good.

Pam Bondi did everything she could to prevent the Epstein files from being made public while using the Department of Justice to go after Donald Trump’s political opponents. She did nothing to stand for the rule of law — instead shielding Trump from accountability. She won't be missed.

Exciting to watch the historic NASA Artemis II launch yesterday! I had the honor of meeting these inspiring astronauts a few years ago, and I look forward to following their journey around the moon. This launch is a reminder to us all to shoot for the moon & dream big! 🚀🌙

We urgently need to lower energy costs for American families. My draft Ratepayer Roadmap outlines a path to do exactly that: directly cut bills, build more clean energy, and stop Big Oil from rigging the system to make even more profits. Learn more:

Estoy feliz de que mi proyecto de ley para mejorar los pronósticos meteorológicos haya pasado el comité, y seguiré trabajando para que este proyecto se convierta en ley para ayudar a nuestros agricultores.
- JR
Mientras que los eventos extremos climáticos se vuelven más comunes y menos predecibles, es necesario que invirtamos en el mejoramiento de los pronósticos meteorológicos, para que nuestras comunidades locales puedan prepararse mejor.

It's clear Trump will continue to use the DOJ, an independent agency, for his political benefit and whoever he appoints as Attorney General will follow his illegal direction. I will keep pushing DOJ to follow the law and hold those accountable for illegal acts against our state and our people.

AG Pam Bondi has been using her office to repeatedly attack Colorado to advance the President's political agenda and exact retribution. I opposed her nomination from the beginning; and since, I have worked to fight DOJ's attacks on Colorado and other states.

Native American veterans served this country before they were even considered U.S. citizens. That's not talked about enough. Visited the Hualapai Veterans Memorial today with warriors Mike, Herbert, and Franklin. Worth the visit.

One month ago, the President said the war in Iran would last 4-5 weeks. It’s been a month and now we’re being told just a couple more weeks. The President got us into yet another war in the Middle East with no exit plan.

A year ago was Donald Trump's "Liberation Day." What's happened since? - Families have paid $1,700 in higher costs - 89,000 manufacturing jobs lost - Global investment in U.S. hit its lowest since COVID And no tariff refunds in sight for Americans, just the bill.

One year since Trump’s so-called “Liberation Day,” and Trump still owes the American people money.

It’s been one year since the Administration's so-called “Liberation Day” tariffs — and the result? Higher costs for families, fewer markets for our farmers, and more uncertainty for small businesses.

Dems held the line: fund DHS, not ICE abuses. We passed a bipartisan deal through the Senate unanimously. Twice. Then Mike Johnson flip-flopped and blocked it. I went on @cnn.com to lay out the facts:

The Attorney General needs to be on the side of the law, not abusing their position to protect and serve Donald Trump. This was a needed change but the damage done cannot be overstated - we must have a Justice Department that shows independence, not blind loyalty.

On April 2, 1917, Jeannette Rankin became the first woman sworn into Congress—paving the way for many, including myself, to follow in her footsteps. To this day her legacy lives on, inspiring women and girls across the country to run for office and fight for change.

Bondi’s departure is overdue & deserved—after disgracing & degrading Justice, both the Department & cause. But the real problem is Trump, who confuses Justice with self-interest, & sees the Department as his personal law firm. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/02/u...

I’ll evaluate any nominee fairly using my usual criteria: qualifications, independence, and vision. But given Trump’s record, I’ll scrutinize the next AG nominee with exacting standards.

Somehow her allegiance to Trump wasn’t enough. It’s alarming to hear he may seek someone even more subservient and willing to weaponize the justice system for personal, financial, and political gain.

To put it bluntly, Pam Bondi has been a terrible AG. I didn’t vote for her because I knew she wouldn’t defend DOJ’s independence and we’ve seen that play out.
- RW
Long overdue. While he's at it, Trump should fire Pete Hegseth and RFK Jr. immediately.

We have never had an Attorney General as disgraceful as Pam Bondi. No one else has done more to turn DOJ into a political attack dog for a delusional & spiteful President. We need a DOJ that is actually focused on the rule of law and that works for the PEOPLE—not the President.

Dems will continue pushing for commonsense reforms to rein in out-of-control ICE & Border Patrol agents. Accountability must come for unjustified violence & unconstitutional actions. GOP should stop trying to ignore Americans’ demand for needed reform & oversight.

Under AG Pam Bondi, the DOJ became a cesspool of corruption. Bondi will be remembered for blocking the release of the Epstein files, weaponizing the DOJ to go after Trump’s political opponents, and handing out merger approvals as political favors. Good riddance.

Turns out covering up for pedophiles isn't a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

Pam Bondi severely obstructed and carelessly mishandled the Epstein Files – denying victims justice and accountability. She focused on weaponizing the DOJ for political retribution instead of working to keep Americans safe. It was long past time for her to go.

I’m introducing bipartisan legislation with @susielee.house.gov that will help fill gaps in our cybersecurity workforce and open the door to more good-paying jobs for Nevadans, regardless of whether or not they have a college degree.

Started my morning in Little Falls meeting with Mayor Zylka about two important projects for Little Falls: the Little Flyers Child Care Center and constructing a new railway overpass. I worked to secure funding for both projects that will support families and improve safety.

Tina Peters tried to corrupt the 2020 election, one of the fairest and most secure in our history. She was prosecuted by a Republican DA and convicted by a jury of her peers. Regardless of her sentence, she is guilty as sin. www.denverpost.com/2026/04/02/t...

Trump promised to bring costs down. Now, the U.S. postal service is planning to add an 8% tax on packages to cover fuel costs — fuel costs he’s responsible for raising in the first place. Arizonans are paying more at every turn. This isn't what he promised.
