I just visited Comprehensive Community Solutions in Rockford to see how they're helping young people build brighter futures through education, job training, mentorship, and housing support. Programs like YouthBuild, ALPHA, and TANYA’s House are opening doors and changing lives.

The EPA proposed a rule that would convert clean air safeguards into a fast-track for data centers and fossil fuel plants. EPA’s duty is to protect Americans from pollution, not to shield corporations from accountability. The agency must withdraw this rule.

Today’s decision is a setback for LGBTQ+ Americans and another cruel step in President Trump’s Supreme Court targeting transgender people. Read my full statement on today's Supreme Court ruling allowing states to ban transgender kids from school sports ⬇️

I am leading a bipartisan group of Michigan lawmakers urging President Trump to reconsider his denial of major disaster relief related to the four tornadoes that ripped through SW Michigan in March. wtvbam.com/2026/06/30/9...

A great morning in Patrick County dropping off $785,000 for Connect Health & Wellness to continue expanding their incredible health care services. As rural health care providers deal with painful funding cuts, I’m proud to fight each and every day to get them all the support I can.

Americans are already feeling crushed by rising utility costs—we need to protect them from unfair rate increases. The No Bonuses for Utility Executives Act ensures that the c-suite is not lining their pockets while burdening consumers with increased costs.

The Supreme Court struck down Trump’s illegal attempt to end birthright citizenship. While it’s unlikely that this fight is over, today’s decision affirms our Constitution and celebrates our nation’s enduring ideal: “out of many, one.”

Children born in the United States are citizens of the United States

The promise and privilege of citizenship extends to every child born in our jurisdiction, and those children deserve just as much of a shot at the American dream as those whose families have been here for generations. No xenophobic Executive Order can undo that.

The Fourteenth Amendment is clear: If you're born in the United States, you're an American citizen. It’s that simple, no matter what Trump says. It has been the law of the land for over a century, and it’s outrageous that Trump ever tried to take it away in the first place.

A dark day: the Supreme Court flung the doors wide open to quid pro quo corruption in our electoral process. The decision to obliterate caps on spending by political parties is a gift from the MAGA majority on the Court to their extremist benefactors.

The 14th amendment clearly states that individuals born in the U.S. are citizens, and today the Supreme Court reaffirmed that by striking down Trump’s illegal executive order.

Big money in politics is a threat to our democracy. The more the Supreme Court strikes down limits to big money, the more the rich and powerful will be able to buy influence over our elections.

Right-wing extremists and the MAGA movement are determined to single out, target, and harm the trans community. My heart is with trans kids and their loved ones. I won’t stop fighting for them.

Amazing that the Trumpiest extreme of the extremist wing went with Trump even on something clear as this. It should have been 9-0, but then so should the presidential immunity decision, and it was 6-3 for the extremists’ anti-constitutional invention.

The vast sums of dark, unaccountable money in our political system have shifted the balance of power toward corporate special interests and away from the American people. This ruling is a boon to the GOP and its billionaire donors and their ability to drown out the voices of the American people.

Today's decision by the Supreme Court will continue to dilute the voice of the people and make it easier for our elections to be bought by the wealthy and well-connected. We must stand up against this kind of money in politics. More here ⬇️

While I am relieved that the Court rightly decided that birthright citizenship is the law of the land, I would be naive to believe that this will stop Trump’s attacks.
- RD
President Trump’s illegal birthright citizenship order was not just an attack on our Constitution—it was an attack on millions of Americans who have immigrant heritage.
- AS
Today's ruling is yet another loss for the Trump administration's extreme agenda and its efforts to rewrite the Constitution to give it even more power over American life.

Birthright citizenship has never been up for debate. The Constitution is clear that anyone born in the United States is an American citizen. Striking that down was a bridge too far for even this partisan Supreme Court.

People born in the U.S. are American citizens. President Trump's effort to undermine this principle was wrong and unconstitutional. I'm glad the court struck it down — and thank you to the Granite Staters who helped protect this foundational right.

Although I’m heartened by the SCOTUS majority decision in this case, birthright citizenship should never have been up for debate. I know this is not the end of the Trump Administration's attacks on immigrant communities & I will never stop fighting for our Constitutional rights.

Today's decision is an incredible relief to the thousands of United States citizens born on American soil, whose citizenship is incontrovertible. In America we follow the language of the Constitution, not the edicts of pretend Kings. apnews.com/article/supr...

Trump thinks building more housing, lowering costs, and stopping private equity from buying up homes is a "yawn." He is completely disinterested in helping the American people. He's not even bothering to hide it, he’s proud of it.

13 years ago today, the Yarnell Hill Fire took 19 of the Granite Mountain Hotshots from us. They were sons, husbands, fathers, and friends who gave everything for their neighbors. Arizona remembers them today, and every day.

Today, SCOTUS reinforced the rot and corruption at the heart of our political system. Billionaires and corporations will have even freer rein to try to buy candidates of their choice. We must overturn Citizens United, end dark money and fundamentally change our campaign finance system.

President Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship was unlawful and unconstitutional. The Supreme Court rejected that effort today, but Congress cannot stand by as Trump continues testing the limits of his power and trying to rewrite the law in his favor.

The president tried to rewrite the Constitution, and even his handpicked Supreme Court told him he went too far and reined him in. If you’re born in the United States, you are an American. Period. This should have never been up for debate in the first place.

No matter how much President Trump tries to steal citizenship from people that the Constitution has said have earned it and reverse the grand American tradition of welcoming newcomers to our nation, the Supreme Court confirmed today that those born in America are American.

For 250 years, America has been a nation made stronger by immigrants. The framers of the Fourteenth Amendment wove that value into our Constitution, affirming that those born on American soil are citizens.

The Supreme Court did the right thing today and upheld birthright citizenship. If you are born in the United States, you are a citizen of the United States. Our country and our laws do not bend to this President’s whims and bigotry. This country belongs to the people.

The American people have made clear they want big money out of politics, but the Supreme Court just took a hammer to what few guardrails remain. Corruption must end in both politics and our courts.

Birthright citizenship is guaranteed by the Constitution. Even a MAGA-engineered Supreme Court wouldn't buy Trump's bogus reading of the Constitution. But this isn't Trump's first or last attempt to trample the Constitution. We'll fight him at every turn.
