Last week I toured Spiritus, a Direct Air Capture pilot facility at Nambé Pueblo. Their partnership with the Nambé Pueblo Development Corporation will bring sustainable, high-skill jobs and cement the state as a key player in the future of large-scale carbon sequestration.

Rather than making life more affordable, Trump has led a full-fledged assault on American education: defunding it, radicalizing its agenda, and dismantling it. Instead of attacking our schools he should be building them up. We'll keep fighting to ensure every child has access to a good education.

I was with folks on the Olympic Peninsula to talk about why we need to protect and preserve these wild and scenic rivers. I'll keep working to get my Wild Olympics bill across the finish line so these lands are here for generations to come.

The Trump administration’s effort to strip the tax-exempt status from thousands of schools and universities is another attempt by President Trump to impose his will on academic institutions, undermining opportunities of hundreds of thousands of students across the country.

The Trump admin is taking federal agents away from investigating crimes like terrorism and sex trafficking to investigate noncitizen voting – something that’s been proven time and time again to be exceedingly rare. They aren’t making America safer.

The U.S. and Iran are exchanging fire again. The costs and risks of this war keep mounting, and we're no closer to achieving any of our goals. It's time for the administration to stop spending billions and risking American lives in a failed war.

Hungry kids can't learn. Trump & Republicans cut SNAP and gave billionaires & corporations a tax cut while throwing our kids under the bus to pay for it. This is cruelty as a policy choice.

Saddened to hear about the passing of Gloria Steinem. Gloria’s activism was unique. It focused on people, empathy and unlearning. She used the power of coalitions and togetherness to work towards equality, while elevating the voices of the marginalized. Her legacy will live on.

These reports are troubling and I am demanding that CENTCOM immediately open a fact-finding investigation. Secretary Hegseth needs to understand that these types of internal checks reflect our values and make the DOD stronger.

While working Americans struggle to afford groceries and gas, Trump is more worried about which private jet his friend will buy. He will always put his ultra-wealthy "friends" first.

Gloria Steinem helped build the movement that sent women like me—someone who was written off as "just a mom in tennis shoes"—to the United States Senate. Gloria also understood that women's rights began with the freedom to make our own health care decisions.

Gas prices in Arizona are higher than the national average. That’s why I’ve been fighting to suspend the federal gas tax to give families some relief, but what we really need is an end to Trump’s war that’s been jacking up prices across the board.

I remember well the huge impact Gloria Steinem had on my mother in the early 70s. They’re the same age, and Gloria’s advocacy helped my mom & countless other women during periods of challenge and change as they redefined their roles, fought discrimination, & tried to build a better world for women.

I am heartbroken by the news of Gloria Steinem’s passing. Author, activist, trailblazer, icon. An organizer and a challenger of the status quo. Her work inspired a generation and will leave a lasting impact. May we recommit ourselves to the ideals of feminism—of true equality and justice for all.

Trump campaigned on lowering gas prices below $2 a gallon. But gas in Hawaii is currently about $5.50 a gallon. Nobody in our country should be paying over $5 a gallon for gas while this regime wastes tax dollars on an illegal war, a ballroom, and a host of other nonsense.

Sec. Hegseth treats civilian casualties as an afterthought, cuts personnel responsible for preventing them, & boasts that there will be “no stupid rules of engagement.” There must be a full investigation & accountability for this strike. And we must end this disastrous war now.

What an incredible life. An iconic advocate for women’s rights, Gloria Steinem taught us what it means to fight for reproductive rights and gender equality. I know many, including myself, will miss her guiding light, but her legacy will live on in the community she created.

As a result of Trump’s tariffs and war, American families are spending $3,500 more per year on the cost of food, gas and medicine. Meanwhile... Trump and his family have made more than $4 BILLION off the presidency. That's the cost of corruption.
