Your money – that’s meant to find cures for cancer and diseases – is being swiped by this administration and given to Pete Hegseth.

I want these rules in place because sports is about any given Saturday. It’s not about whether you have a billionaire in your backyard. It’s about whether you can coach, recruit, have academic performance, & have fairness. But that fairness does not exist today without this bill.

A sickening reminder that hateful rhetoric will never be just rhetoric. Words that attack or belittle people over the color of their skin can also incite the most brutal attacks, especially when they are given official sanction. What an absolute, unmitigated travesty.

At a time when Trump’s economy is already unaffordable, the dream of home ownership is only getting further out of reach. We have to end the administration’s harmful tariffs and unwanted war with Iran and start bringing down costs for working families. www.wsj.com/economy/hous...

We all know Trump's $5,000 checks aren't coming. But Democrats had a bill to END Trump's tariffs and actually save families money. Republicans blocked it.

This is a massive mistake. The Chesapeake Bay plays a critical role in Virginia's economy and seafood industries, and we must take steps to protect the waters and shores of the region. I'm going to do everything I can to fight this. www.wboc.com/news/trump-a...

For nearly 40 hours, residents in Frederick watched an ICE operation unfold in their neighborhood — one that turned violent and included attempts to intimidate those who spoke up. Marylanders care about their neighbors. There is no place for ICE's cruelty in our communities.

It's never been more clear to me how badly we need a solution to the healthcare crisis we're in. That's why I introduced MediKids – to put forward a solution that eases the burden. We can and should ensure healthcare doesn't leave families in crippling debt.

Folks in Georgia are lucky to have a fighter like @ossoff.bsky.social who is standing up to this Administration’s corruption and fighting to lower costs for families. And after talking to so many of them, I know they’ll do everything they can to re-elect him and help us take back the Senate.

If the President can't put his name on it, he is willing to close it or destroy it. He cares more about branding our institutions than preserving them. Congress allocated $257 million to repair the Kennedy Center. It should insist that work be done properly.

Great to see the House pass our SEED Act, delivering relief for early childhood educators who cover classroom costs out of their own pockets.

Do my Republican colleagues want future Democratic Presidents to refuse to send disaster aid to states that don't elect Democratic Senators? Trump has already weaponized disaster aid and refused help to blue states over politics. This is simply unforgivable.

Almost $8 for diesel at a gas station in Chicago. President Trump’s war with Iran is pushing Illinois families to their breaking points. What happened to lower prices on day one?

On this day in 1787, our founders signed the U.S. Constitution—and its ideals have guided us closer to equality in the years since. But there's more work to do, particularly when it comes to enshrining equal rights protections for women in that pivotal, living document.

The EPA is literally testing your drinking water for medication abortion. It's not because the science says we should—it's to make anti-abortion extremists happy. I won't let these radicals hijack the EPA, and I'll be pushing for answers.

I’m opening an inquiry with @wyden.senate.gov into Flock’s troubling policies to ensure Americans' privacy is protected.

Whether it's the use of data to track patients traveling for reproductive care or its abuse by ICE officials to conduct searches without warrants, the improper use of Flock camera data is dangerous and creating an uproar.

No bombs for Saudi Arabia. No nukes for Saudi Arabia. The Kingdom is a known violator of human rights and an instigator for the crisis in Yemen. I introduced a joint resolution of disapproval to stop Trump's sale of 10,000 bombs to the Saudis.

Ectopic pregnancy deaths have nearly doubled in post-Roe America. The rates are even worse in states with abortion bans. When we warned them women would die, they didn't listen. This was preventable.

I have a different view. Fossil fuel funded Trump’s campaign. They’re on his team. Blocking low-cost clean energy drives grids to their expensive power plants, sending billions in ratepayer dollars to big Trump donors. It’s a massive scam pumping money from ratepayers to donors.

Americans shouldn't go broke to afford the insulin they need. We must take action to lower the cost of insulin so that no one has to make impossible choices just to pay for this life-saving medicine. I’m going to keep fighting for the bipartisan INSULIN Act to do just that.
