Average gas prices are $4.50 per gallon. Gas prices are up 50% since the start of Trump’s war with Iran. And remember, Senate Republicans have voted 6 times to continue Trump’s war. End the war. Lower costs.

Diabetes often is the most expensive chronic condition—I’m hoping to change that. My bipartisan INSULIN Act would cap monthly out-of-pocket insulin costs at $35, ensuring families across the country can afford the lifesaving medication they need.

Trump’s delusional claim that Ukraine is “militarily defeated” spouts Putin’s propaganda. The Russian people see through it. So do Ukrainians. They’re standing strong & pushing back—& could actually prevail, with sufficient support from the U.S. & Europe.

I look forward to working with towns like Bridgeton across South Jersey to create economic opportunities that will allow families to not only meet their basic needs, but thrive. 2/2

Last weekend, I met with Bridgeton Mayor Albert Kelly and other town officials to learn about the issues facing their community. We discussed the need to invest in affordable housing and transportation; lower high costs, including gas prices; and invest in workforce training and education. 1/2

Today I sat down with faith leaders and immigration advocates to hear directly about what's happening on the ground. We discussed how we can work together to fix a broken system and make immigration enforcement in Arizona fair and humane.

While you are struggling to put food on the table, health care and housing become more unattainable, and gas prices are soaring, Washington Republicans are focused on pleasing Trump by funding his vanity project. That is unfair to you. They need to focus on the REAL problems Americans are facing.

We must ensure that critical materials are made in America, by American workers. That includes our chemical industry -- like the yellow road paint we make right here in Michigan. Buy America, buy Michigan! www.mlive.com/news/muskego...

A reckless trade war. Fertilizer prices are through the roof. Rising input costs. Our farmers are the backbone of so many communities across Wisconsin, and this administration is making their lives so much harder. www.wpr.org/news/steep-f...

No worker should be left fighting for the basic right to a safe job. That's why I co-sponsored @sanders.senate.gov's and @baldwin.senate.gov's Protecting America's Workers Act. We need to have the backs of all workers, in every corner of our country and across every industry.

Lutnick just can't get his story straight about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein — from back in February, where I first got him to admit he had lied about their connection, to today. What is he hiding? Why does his story keep changing? The American people deserve the truth.

The Abilities Expo was inspiring. I'm glad that people with disabilities and their families, caregivers, and advocates are able to come together in this way, get the resources they need, see the latest innovations and technologies, and connect with communities across the state.

The transition to clean energy is going to happen. The only question is if the United States will lead the transition or follow behind China. Projects like this show that clean energy just makes good sense — even in cold states like ours.

Winona Area Public Schools secured $5.5 million in federal tax credits through the Inflation Reduction Act for installing the energy-efficient system. Even better, the geo system will pay for itself with its energy savings.

The system regulates the school temperature by harnessing the earth’s natural heat as energy to keep the building warm in the winter + cool in the summer. It’s a cheaper way to heat/cool the school, doesn’t tie them to the ups and downs of a global oil/gas market and is clean, American-made energy.

We spent yesterday listening to constituents facing a wave of rising costs—from health care and housing to gas and groceries. And yet Republicans are laser-focused on billions for a ballroom and ICE. They need to get serious.

There is no excuse to oppose the Major Richard Star Act—veterans support it, a majority of the Senate supports it, Sec. Hegseth supports it. I will move again for a vote on this critical legislation that removes the wounded veteran tax imposed on brave combat-injured veterans.

Happy #NationalNursesDay to all the hardworking nurses across the State of Washington. Thank you to WA members of the Association of Women's Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses who met with me last week. I am proud to support you for everything you do to help keep Washingtonians healthy.

On National Nurse Day, we thank our nurses who show up every day to care for our communities. Day in and day out, our nurses navigate a health care system in crisis: rural hospitals closing their doors, Medicaid under attack, families bankrupted by medical bills.

Trump's bank regulators are finally realizing that consumer fraud is a problem for the financial system. Huh, I wonder if there's a federal agency designed to stop consumers from getting scammed? Oh wait, there is, the CFPB — and the Trump Administration is trying to destroy it.

The President’s campaign of fear and intimidation continues. As if he has not done enough already to turn the lives of election workers in Fulton County upside down. What will it take to get Republican lawmakers in Congress to speak out before no one is willing to work at polling places?

"It's their fertilizer that's stranded, not our fertilizer." Try telling this to the majority of American farmers who can't afford the fertilizer they need because the Strait is closed. It’s a global commodity, of course it impacts us.

Gas prices are insane right now. Danielle, an Uber and Lyft driver in South Carolina, went from paying $25 per fill up to $40 or more. Money directly out of her wallet, her take home pay. We're drowning in this war tax.
