4:1. That’s what the spend ratio on the air against me has been this year thanks to my opponent's Super PAC. The attack ads are funded by a Wisconsin billionaire who thinks he can buy this race. Minnesota isn’t for sale. Help us fight back — donate at amyklobuchar.com.

Republican abortion bans are killing women—and the worst part is, they knew this would happen. Republicans care more about controlling women's bodies than they do about actually protecting them. Abortion rights in all 50 states.

Trump's illegal war of choice in Iran has already cost us over $38 BILLION, and that's before you factor in the rising costs you're paying for gas, groceries, & virtually everything else. To protect our troops, civilians in the region, & to lower prices we need to end this war, NOW.

Just a few days ago, a clearly marked Doctors Without Borders bus was struck by an Israeli military airstrike. Now, President Trump has approved sending 40,000 one-ton bombs to Prime Minister Netanyahu. The U.S. can't continue to supply weapons being used to commit war crimes.

I HAVE TO APOLOGIZE: I noted that the new Republican Chair of the Senate Budget Committee often calls Social Security a "Ponzi scheme." He actually called it a "LEGAL Ponzi scheme." Do his Republican colleagues agree?

Coloradans don’t want a President who only looks to enrich their bank account and build monuments to themselves. They need leaders who focus on building better lives for American families.

President Trump said he was going to lower costs. Gas is at $4.36/gallon and Americans are paying hundreds of dollars more for housing than when he came back into office. And he’s spending his time fighting to get his name on the side of a building.

The price of diesel just hit an all-time high of $6.60 a gallon thanks to Donald Trump’s war in Iran. Every truck delivering groceries to the store runs on diesel – so high diesel prices means food costs go up. It’s past time to end this war and focus on lowering prices for hardworking families.

I am disappointed that we are back in the same position voting on the same Farm Bill this Committee considered in August. My hope was to return to a bipartisan process, rather than continue down this partisan path. Unfortunately, that did not happen.

Our economy should reward the people who actually keep it running, but the gap between the highest earners and working Arizonans keeps getting wider. People shouldn’t have to fall further behind while their hard work makes someone else rich.

President Trump promised to bring prices down. Instead, inflation is higher now than when President Biden left office.

We need to send a very strong message not just to Vladimir Putin, but to China and to anybody who is buying Russian oil and gas, that they are going to pay a price for that because they are facilitating Russia's unprovoked and horrific war in Ukraine.

Patients want to know that decisions about their health care are being made by doctors, not by Wall Street investors. If we’re going to lower costs and un-rig the health care system, we need to stop the corporate takeover of medicine. I’ve got a bill to get the job done.

Trump promised to make health care affordable. Instead, premiums are soaring, tax credits have expired, and millions of Americans have already lost coverage. Instead of a one-time payment to a handful of ACA recipients, why doesn't he try to fix the system he broke?

The Trump Administration's third country immigration operation is completely incompetent, raises serious human rights concerns and is a massive waste of taxpayer dollars. Yet another example of an incompetent Administration.

Communities across NH are making progress in the fight against fentanyl. The Trump administration is making their job harder. Blocking federal funds for fentanyl test strips takes a critical tool away from those working to prevent overdoses and save lives.

@brown.edu research shows that on top of the $38 billion Trump’s madcap war has cost us as taxpayers, Americans have already paid another $107 billion extra for gasoline and diesel. Both numbers will go up, up, up. www.politico.com/news/2026/09...

New analyses show the Pentagon has spent $38 billion+ on this war… on top of the $100 billion in extra fuel costs Americans have spent on gas. Every day, those costs spike higher and higher. Democrats have voted time and time again to end this war. Republicans need to join us.

Donald Trump says he'd "bomb the s--- out of" Oman, a U.S. ally, if it gets in the way of his illegal war with Iran. What an idiotic idea. That’s why I filed a War Powers Resolution to prevent another foolish war.

When our military has needed more recruits, immigrants have always answered the call to serve. Deporting their family members is a slap in the face to these servicemembers who are willing to defend our country in uniform.

Another chance to start a new, $100+ billion endless foreign war? Another chance to send diesel costs skyrocketing to all-time highs? Another chance to send gas prices above $4/gal? Another chance to strip health care from millions of Americans?

Trump can put whoever he wants in charge of the Fed, but the same inescapable truth remains: His economy is awful, and it’s getting worse by the day. The Fed hiking rates was the inevitable result of his failures and will raise Americans’ costs in countless ways.
