We’re STILL paying the price for Trump’s incompetence seven months into a disastrous war with Iran that he said would only take days. It has cost Americans hundreds of billions of dollars and unnecessarily endangered our troops.
- JH
The war has already cost taxpayers tens of billions. U.S. forces have also burned through as much as two-thirds of certain missile-defense interceptors leaving us less safe. Every day we spend fighting this forever war is another day we’re not fighting high costs here at home. It needs to end.

We must regulate digital assets, protect consumers, and give innovation room to grow. But innovation cannot come at the expense of ethics and accountability.

The Trump Administration has funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to corrupt nations as part of their third country deportation program. This operation is completely un-American, and it needs to end now.

Apparently, there's no money for your healthcare or childcare, but we have $40 billion of taxpayer dollars for Trump’s war of choice in Iran.

Even though Congress had already appropriated $257 million for the Kennedy Center’s renovation… Trump is shutting it down entirely because he’s upset he can’t put his name on it. Why is he focused on these grievances instead of lowering costs for Americans?

There is mounting evidence that Corey Lewandowski secretly offered multi-million-dollar government contracts in exchange for kickbacks while at the Department of Homeland Security. @blumenthal.senate.gov and I are demanding answers to the potential widespread corruption.

The same guy who has said our country can't afford child care or health care because we have to fund wars has spent at least $38 BILLION of your tax dollars on his war with Iran. I'm voting to END Trump's war with Iran.

Congress must urgently pass legislation to put guardrails in place before we have a cyberattack, economic crisis, or national security disaster facilitated by AI, and we also need to enforce laws already on the books to hold AI companies accountable. The time to act is yesterday.

Frontier AI models are currently a dangerous technology without the safeguards needed to protect people from serious harm. That's why we should immediately pause the development of advanced AI while lawmakers and regulators put systems in place to keep people safe.
- EW
We've already seen that the recent calls by AI industry leaders to ‘pace the frontier’ are insufficient, and their suggestions that we must weaken antitrust protections in order to confront the AI threat are transparently self-serving.
- EW
The future of artificial intelligence must be decided by the American people through their democratically elected representatives in government—not by a handful of CEOs and billionaire corporations.
- EW
Today, I'm calling to immediately press pause on the development of advanced AI while lawmakers and regulators put systems in place to keep people safe.

RFK Jr. should have the decency to resign. And if he doesn’t, the president ought to fire him.

Last week in Fredericksburg, I held a roundtable on affordable housing and how we can make it easier for Virginians to find a place they can afford to call home. As a former fair housing attorney, I’ll keep fighting to expand access to affordable housing.

Trump is shutting down the nation’s performing arts center because he can’t have his name on it. It’s the latest in a long pattern of a president who sees America not as a nation with institutions and traditions worth protecting, but as territory to reshape and conquer.

Last week in Richmond, @mcclellan.house.gov , @dannyavula.bsky.social, Virginia Health and Human Resources, local leaders, and I discussed how rising costs of gas, groceries, housing, and child care are squeezing families. We're going to keep fighting to lower costs.

This is the reality in California and other states across the country. And it's why I've fought to get a bipartisan Farm Bill that meets this pressing and growing challenge, and provides relief for California's hungry families. Read that report here:

I'm releasing a new report showing just how dire a situation American families are facing with food insecurity.

Later today, the Senate Agriculture Committee will again vote on a Farm Bill that falls short for California families. We need a bipartisan farm bill. Badly. But this isn’t bipartisan and doesn’t meet the needs of our people.

Costs are up. Chaos is up. Corruption is up. Minnesotans are fed up with rising health care costs, gas prices, and tariffs that make everything more expensive. We need a Governor who will put Minnesota first – not be a rubber stamp for Donald Trump.

Trump already enacted the largest Medicaid cut in history. Now hospitals warn his latest proposed rules could cut hundreds of billions more. Whether you rely on Medicaid or not, a closed hospital can’t care for anyone.

Donald Trump and Republicans passed massive tax breaks for giant AI companies that don't need the extra help. And they cut health care for regular Americans. That is the exact opposite of what Congress should be doing.

I joined @aarp.org New Jersey for a telephone town hall to talk all things healthcare, caregiving, and aging with dignity. As a father and a caregiver, these issues are close to my heart. It's important to hear your stories and to carry them with me in all I do as your U.S. Senator.

Trump is sending $2.8 BILLION of bombs paid for by YOU, the American taxpayer, to a govt led by a wanted war criminal. All while Netanyahu keeps bombing Gaza & blocks justice for Americans killed on his watch. How is this America First? We will work to stop it.
