It has been 15 years since “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” was repealed to allow our LGBTQ+ service members to serve our nation free from discrimination. I was proud to support this historic effort that has only made our military stronger.

Trump is anti-union, anti-labor, and anti-working families. Between Trumpflation and the Trump Tariff Tax, it's clear he's left American workers behind.

Children in this country are dying from measles for the first time in decades. There's only one way to prevent this: Vaccination. Yet RFK Jr and this President have undermined it at every turn. It's shameful.

The housing crisis is really being felt across Michigan from Ironwood to Detroit to Grand Rapids. If we want our kids to stay in Michigan, we need to build more housing so they can actually afford it.

Great to be in Arden Hills with our Minnesota National Guard and the workers who build our state for the Building Trades’ Ribfest. All the proceeds go to Beyond the Yellow Ribbon, supporting Minnesota’s military service members, veterans, and their families.

The gifts never end: A private flight to Aspen. Access to a millionaire’s vacation home. A quarter of a million dollars to go to Fiji and Greece. This is what it’s like to buy influence with the Trump administration.

It's always great to see New Jerseyans around the Capitol! @acscan.bsky.social does incredible work to support families facing cancer all across this country. We must increase funding for cancer research and access to clinical trials. It's how we'll finally find a cure.

No soldier’s sacrifice should be covered up. This is a disservice to our men and women in uniform. Trump needs to show our military families respect by being honest and telling the American people the truth about the war he started.

After EPA Admin Zeldin said he had never heard of the far-right conspiracy that medication abortion is in our water, the Trump admin announced it's using YOUR tax dollars to study that very topic. Zeldin obviously lied to my face while EPA placates anti-abortion extremists.

The U.S. has now spent more than $38 billion on the Iran War. That money could be spent lowering the cost of health care, of groceries, of energy bills. But instead, it’s being spent on a war of choice.

This ban is one more brazen step to suppress press freedoms & 1st Amendment rights. Trump’s contempt for the Constitution seems boundless.

Reputable, reliable outlets you’re banning from the White House, Mr. President, don’t “purposely write negative news.” They report accurately on your negative policies that have negative impacts on Americans.

We will ensure Trump’s efforts to sabotage the Chesapeake Bay clean up don’t jeopardize the $90+ million in federal funds that are essential to protecting the Bay. A healthy Bay is an economic & environmental lifeline for those in the watershed. We won't stop fighting for it.

Veterans living in rural areas often face significant barriers to accessing health care – including traveling for hours to see a doctor. I’m introducing a bipartisan bill to ensure adequate medical care is accessible to ALL of our veterans by identifying gaps in mobile health unit deployment.

Trump doing whatever he wants, whenever he wants—and expecting hardworking Americans to foot the bill. A new report found that the average household in WA state has had to pay $4,800 MORE because of rising costs under Trump.

The Trump administration should reverse this decision. Requests for individual assistance and hazard mitigation grants are not made frivolously.
