Yet Dems shy away from the issue, despite voting 100% to get rid of dark money when given the chance. (Republicans 100% defend dark money.) www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

Let’s not spend $1 billion on Trump’s glitzy ballroom.

It was an incredible morning in Eagan for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. John and I joined breast cancer survivors, families, and advocates who were there walking and racing to raise money for a cure. 🏃🏻♀️ ❤️

New Hampshire is facing a shortage of nursing professionals, especially in the most rural parts of the state. It was great to see firsthand how funding I helped the New England College secure is supporting a revamped program that is getting more nurses out in the field.

If President Trump cannot admit he lost in 2020, how can we expect him to honor the results of the upcoming midterm elections? His refusal to accept basic reality endangers our democracy.

Yesterday, I joined federal, state, military, and local leaders to discuss how we can strengthen and support the vital missions at Buckley Space Force Base. I’ll keep fighting to support Buckley and reinforce our state’s role as a global leader in aerospace and national security.

States’ rights don’t only exist when you like how they exercise them, Mr. President. Our state legislature and city councils have every right to pass laws about state and local government actions. And I am proud as hell of them for doing exactly that.

Republicans CHOSE to let the ACA tax credits expire & drive up health care costs, forcing families to drop coverage. Their argument? It's too expensive to lower YOUR health care costs. But somehow there is ALWAYS money for Trump's reckless foreign wars and gold-plated ballrooms.

Trump promised his ballroom wouldn’t cost you a penny. Now, Senate Republicans are asking taxpayers to foot a $1 BILLION bill for it.

This week, I met with Taiwan’s delegation to SelectUSA to re-iterate the importance of our partnership. As we build an Einstein Corridor to make our state the #1 place for technology and innovation, partnerships like the one we have with Taiwan will only increase opportunities.

Consumer confidence is plunging under Trump’s economy. And it's not hard to see why. Gas, groceries, health care, and housing have exploded. Let's end the tariffs and this illegal war, and focus on lowering costs for hardworking Americans.

Trump is out-of-touch with reality. It’s simple: the American people don’t care about the bottom of the reflecting pool being painted or a White House ballroom. They care about being able to afford to put food on the table and get health care when they need it.

When FTC commissioners came before Congress last month, I called out their baseless attacks on gender‑affirming care. Now the courts have confirmed what we all know: the FTC is weaponizing its authority to go after trans kids. It’s despicable. Trans rights are human rights.

In Marshall, I met with local leaders, small business owners, and providers about the child care shortage. When parents can’t find care, businesses can’t find workers. We must be committed to expanding access and increasing affordability. www.marshallindependent.com/news/local-n...

Trump slashed food assistance, cut healthcare, and now he's forcing working Americans to pay MORE at the gas pump. He handed tax breaks to billionaires, leaving families to struggle with rising costs.

Unlike Texas, North Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri, & Florida, Virginia put its redistricting referendum up to the will of the PEOPLE. They voted & the redistricting amendment won, fair & square. This ruling throws out their votes and ignores Virginians’ will.

Delaware gas prices are now $4.35 a gallon. That's a 50% increase since the start of Trump's war with Iran – the war Senate Republicans have voted six times to continue. End the war and bring costs down.

I met with kids in Yakima who rely on housing and homelessness programs to keep a roof over their heads. Trump tried to cut these programs by HALF. I said no–and even increased that funding. Let’s build more housing for our kids, not a ballroom for Trump.

The Trump admin said they were committed to ending the opioid epidemic. Now, they’re doing the opposite by cutting access to tools, like test strips, that help prevent overdose. They must reverse course: we should use every tool at our disposal to save lives.

That's why I introduced a bill to give Congress the power to override the President’s denial of disaster aid, so communities get help when they need it most; not when it’s politically convenient.

President Trump is weaponizing disaster relief against Colorado communities. Trump rejected disaster aid after a record wildfire season and continues to block funding to help Colorado prevent potentially catastrophic fires ahead. www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2026...

The last straw that led to Spirit’s abrupt closure was rising gas prices under Donald Trump’s watch. This will increase unemployment in our state in the short term, and hurt our tourism industry in the long term.

$2.6 billion made and no way of knowing if people were tipped off. Potentially profiting off inside information makes this already bad war even worse. Americans have lost trust in our politics because of shady things like this. We have to address it head on.

Colorado has over 730,000 small businesses, employing 1.2 million people in our state. They’re the heartbeat of our economy! In Washington, we should be making it easier to start a small business, not harder.
