The American people are losing while people around President Trump are enriching themselves. I believe the corruption and double-dealing we are learning of now is only the tip of the iceberg.

The Supreme Court did the bare minimum here, but Justice Thomas’ dissent misuses a law written in *1873* to justify banning mifepristone. Women couldn’t vote, let alone control their own bodies. Seriously?

Medication abortion is safe and effective, and has been for decades. This was the right ruling. And the court should continue to recognize that these attacks have no basis in science or fact.

BREAKING: Mifepristone will remain accessible for now, which is good news — but it’s clear women’s health care is under attack. We have to restore the protections of Roe. v Wade nationwide.

As long as I’m in the Senate, I’ll always stand up for our law enforcement and work across the aisle to deliver the support they need to do their jobs effectively.

Great to spend time with NAPO, including our Las Vegas officers, during National Police Week and thank them for all the work they do to keep our communities safe.

Mifepristone is safe, FDA-approved, and should stay that way. Permanently. Women shouldn’t have to keep wondering if their rights will hold up next week. This is their decision to make, not the government’s.

SCOTUS did the bare minimum today: stopped a radical court from banning mail-order mifepristone in every state. But 3 extremist judges came within inches of overruling 25 years of FDA science. That's the world Dobbs built—and why America's pro-choice majority must speak up.

Women were excluded from clinical trials until 1993. It took an act of Congress to include women in medical research. Since then, we’ve been fighting to bridge the gap. This administration is taking us backward by cutting NIH funding. This Women’s Health Week shows we must keep pushing forward.

Good. This never should have been up for debate. Women in America, regardless of where they live, should have the freedom to control their bodies without any politicians or judges getting in the way. www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

Costs are soaring, but Republicans want to take $1 BILLION from Americans’ pockets to build a ballroom. @markwarner.bsky.social and I crunched the numbers—here are some of the many ways that money could be used to help Virginians instead:

This National Police Week, I want to thank those who protect and serve our communities. Both of my parents were police officers, so I know how important it is for our law enforcement to have our full support and the resources to do their jobs and keep us safe.

It’s been 76 days since Trump launched his illegal war in Iran, and the Administration is STILL refusing to share with Congress or the public an official legal rationale for the conflict—all while pushing for $1.5 trillion for the Pentagon. Everything about that is ridiculous.

Donald Trump is trying to sell off the Chama and Carson National Forests to the highest bidder for uranium mining. New Mexicans have had ENOUGH of the federal government turning our public lands into toxic, hazardous sites that threaten families, livestock, and clean water.

Senate Republicans just moved forward with nearly 50 nominees without consent or agreement from Democrats. They’re rushing them through because they’re unqualified. Shameful.

$1.2 TRILLION could undo almost all of Trump’s Medicaid & SNAP cuts. Instead, Trump wants to build his unworkable 'Golden Dome' scheme. This is nothing more than a gift to the military industrial complex, but they know they can sell anything to Trump if they call it “golden.”

Trump's HUD Secretary sat in front of me defending Trump's $1.5 TRILLION war budget—a budget that gives more money for war and CUTS funding for housing. Instead of giving Pete Hegseth HALF A TRILLION dollars, we could build at least 1 million new homes in America.

Today, I offered an amendment that would have shut this scam down. My amendment would've prevented self-dealing by public officials — including the President & members of Congress — who own or promote digital asset companies, including crypto. Every Republican voted against it.
