Instead of lowering healthcare costs or gas prices, Trump is spending YOUR tax dollars on an illegal, blatantly political ad. He knows how unpopular he is — and now he is using your money to try to change your mind. Corrupt & illegal.

President Xi has been providing weapons and intelligence support to Iran against the U.S. In return, Trump rolls out the red carpet for him and meets him plane-side. Absolutely ridiculous.

'1984' was supposed to be a dystopian cautionary tale. This administration is treating it like a blueprint.

Trump palling around with the world’s biggest Communist and billionaire tech bros behind the data center plague has to be awkward for “anti-communist” Republicans trying to get well on their data center problem.

Costs are soaring because of Donald Trump's policies. But no matter what Trump does in Washington, we have to take action in Minnesota to make life more affordable. From health care to housing, lowering costs will be my job as Governor. Watch my new ad ⬇️

ICE remains out of control. In Evanston, Trump’s maskless agents slammed an innocent man to the ground before realizing they had the wrong guy. Republicans silence speaks volumes.

Transit costs get charged to consumers (more inflation) and low water (yup, climate change) is part of what’s backing up the Canal. www.wsj.com/business/log...

Frontier AI models pose risks for all of humanity today. We must hold AI companies liable for harm, but we must also do more to avoid it in the first place. Trump's refusal to negotiate guardrails with China puts us all at risk.

From tariffs and high costs that feel like "death by a thousand cuts," to navigating the AI landscape, we must continue to champion the small businesses that keep our communities and economy strong. 3/3

Over 6,800 small businesses help power the wedding industry in the Garden State. I sat down with the Knot Worldwide's small business owners to learn about the challenges they face and how I can support them. 2/3

We can't trust AI companies to regulate themselves. It's time for Congress to start taking AI seriously and put safeguards in place to protect Americans.

The Trump-Vance Administration thinks AI risks are a hoax. The American people know AI safety measures are needed. Democrats will put appropriate regulation in place.

Let’s provide opportunities for more than a million Americans—especially young people—from all walks of life to earn a good wage while serving their communities & working toward a climate-resilient future. That’s what my Civilian Climate Corps with @ocasio-cortez.house.gov is all about.

The Netanyahu campaign to extinguish the possibility of a future Palestinian state by building Israeli settlements in the E1 area of the West Bank must end. I'm leading a new effort to sanction those involved in its development and preserve a future pathway for peace.

China needs to get the message that if they want to continue to buy Russian gas, if they want to continue to help Russia fuel and pay for this unprovoked war that is killing civilians, they're going to have to pay. And they're going to have to pay market value.

Chinese cars are driving spy machines, and the video, lidar and geolocation data they collect all goes back to Beijing. Our bill stops these cars from entering the United States and protects our national security.

Diesel prices at record highs→Cost of doing business rises→Cost of living rises with it. It’s not complicated but it’s complicating life for too many Coloradans. End the war. Bring costs down. www.cbsnews.com/colorado/new...

Democrats brought a War Powers Resolution to the Senate floor. AGAIN. Republicans blocked it. AGAIN. I’m focused on ending Trump’s illegal war. It’s costing us dearly.

Taking a chainsaw instead of a scalpel to the Department of Education made no sense. Now we need to focus on a vision of rebuilding it that works for teachers and students. That includes young educators in Houghton and Ironwood.

New Jerseyans deserve to have public servants who work to earn and keep their trust, not undermine it. The findings of the independent report are unacceptable. The Lt. Governor should resign immediately. —AK

Governor Sherrill is absolutely right, the conduct described in the investigative report is totally unacceptable. For the sake of our state Lt governor caldwell should resign.

Fewer kids are getting the measles vaccine compared to just a few years ago. Instead of working to combat vaccine hesitancy, Trump is fanning the flames, and his nominee to lead the FDA is silent.

We cannot allow President Trump to put ICE agents between Americans and their constitutional right to vote. I’m doing everything I can to make sure that doesn’t happen.

Trump's FDA nominee refused to say whether she believes contraception, like an IUD, constitutes abortion. WHAT!? We need an FDA commissioner who believes in science, not an anti-abortion extremist. Every Senator should vote NO.

$43.6 billion spent on Trump’s illegal war thousands of miles away. BILLIONS more spent on increased gas, groceries, and housing costs by working families here in America. Your money down the drain with nothing to show for it.

It should be a crime for public officials to accept bribes or tips. I introduced two bills to fix what should be obvious: accepting payments for influence and access, in all forms, is wrong. Let’s reset the standard and hold ourselves accountable to the people we serve.

I'm proposing an independent federal agency to regulate AI and big tech. We need to act before serious harm occurs and hold these companies accountable when they break the rules.

Trump’s nominee to lead the FDA can’t answer whether or not she believes that birth control contaminates our drinking water?? She'll be the one in charge of regulating medication. Yet her response shows she'll only advance RFK Jr.'s conspiracies.

The costs of President Trump’s unnecessary war with Iran continue to mount, and the American people want it to end. We have lost valuable lives, and the conflict is compounding the burden of high gas and grocery prices at home.

We just don’t want the president to make any dumb deals. He’s rolling out the red carpet for Chinese companies as he punches others in the teeth.
- ES
The president himself said he’s open to Chinese companies coming in, setting up shop, making Chinese cars here. And I just wanna say, as Michigan’s senator, that is the beginning of the end of the American auto industry.

It was clear from the beginning that the situation on the USS Lincoln needed to be taken seriously. Instead of being honest about it and supporting our servicemembers, Trump and Hegseth denied and minimized what was happening. Failed leadership.

OpenAI admitted its agents hacked an Australian government website—three months after it happened. We can’t trust these companies to admit their failures. We need a Cybersecurity & AI Board of Investigations to demand answers from the rogue people behind these “rogue agents.”

NEW: We need to take steps towards universal health care coverage NOW. Today, I’m introducing my Health CARE Act, legislation that would reverse the devastating impacts of HR. 1, implement a low-cost public health insurance option, and permanently expand ACA tax credits.

Could you ever have imagined a President threatening to annihilate another country? At our best, America has been a strong, resolute, reliable neighbor, not a global bully. We need leaders who'll bring us back to that. That isn't Donald Trump.

Gas, groceries, & now mortgages, all are more expensive because of Trump's illegal war in Iran. From daily life to your future, Trump's war tax is raising prices everywhere. This isn't complicated: To protect our troops, save civilians, & lower prices we need to end this war NOW.

But the vast majority of my Republican colleagues voted to allow this reckless and expensive war to continue. This war has already cost taxpayers more than $42 billion and saddled Minnesotans with crushing gas prices and rising costs. When is enough enough?

Today the Senate had another chance to rein in Trump’s unilateral war with Iran. I voted to end this war – I have opposed it since Day One.
