I spoke with the Public Housing Authorities Directors Association (PHADA) about the importance of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing law. When I travel across New Jersey, I see both rural and urban communities struggling with the housing crisis. 1/2

To combat the spread of ticks & help families protect themselves from tick-borne illnesses, Congress passed the Kay Hagan Tick Act. This bipartisan will boost research & improve prevention strategies. I urge Pres Trump to sign it.

I joined @duckworth.senate.gov to lead members of the Illinois Congressional delegation in urging President Trump and FEMA to authorize federal assistance to Illinois families and businesses recovering from August’s severe storms. I hope the President will act swiftly to help our state rebuild.

Patients want to know that decisions about their health care are being made by doctors, not by Wall Street investors. If we’re going to lower costs and un-rig the health care system, we need to stop the corporate takeover of medicine. I’ve got a bill to get the job done.

Once completed, the Michigan Veteran Homes D.J. Jacobetti will help ensure veterans in the U.P. continue to receive quality care long into the future. I was proud to support this new construction by securing a $57 million federal investment in 2023.

Trump promised to make health care affordable. Instead, premiums are soaring, tax credits have expired, and millions of Americans have already lost coverage. Instead of a one-time payment to a handful of ACA recipients, why doesn't he try to fix the system he broke?

The Trump Administration's third country immigration operation is completely incompetent, raises serious human rights concerns and is a massive waste of taxpayer dollars. Yet another example of an incompetent Administration.

The United States must not send 40,000 taxpayer-funded bombs to Netanyahu for his war on Gaza and Lebanon and on Iran. We must block the sale of these weapons now. #BlockTheBombs

Communities across NH are making progress in the fight against fentanyl. The Trump administration is making their job harder. Blocking federal funds for fentanyl test strips takes a critical tool away from those working to prevent overdoses and save lives.

@brown.edu research shows that on top of the $38 billion Trump’s madcap war has cost us as taxpayers, Americans have already paid another $107 billion extra for gasoline and diesel. Both numbers will go up, up, up. www.politico.com/news/2026/09...

New analyses show the Pentagon has spent $38 billion+ on this war… on top of the $100 billion in extra fuel costs Americans have spent on gas. Every day, those costs spike higher and higher. Democrats have voted time and time again to end this war. Republicans need to join us.

Donald Trump says he'd "bomb the s--- out of" Oman, a U.S. ally, if it gets in the way of his illegal war with Iran. What an idiotic idea. That’s why I filed a War Powers Resolution to prevent another foolish war.

The Great Lakes are one of the Midwest’s most valuable resources, and I take seriously the commitment to preserve its beauty and health. Today, I met with @healthylakes.org to discuss how we can protect our waters for future generations to enjoy.

My father was a medical researcher who tried to cure Alzheimer's. Now, suffering from Alzheimer's himself, he can't remember what he once dedicated his life to. Millions of people need our help. That's why I questioned HHS Deputy Sec Nominee about his commitment to supporting caregivers.

When our military has needed more recruits, immigrants have always answered the call to serve. Deporting their family members is a slap in the face to these servicemembers who are willing to defend our country in uniform.

Trump's latest top health nominee refused to commit to ending this administration's disastrous AI prior authorization pilot in WA state. These AI contractors make money based on how many claims they deny. I'm fighting to protect Medicare and END AI prior authorization.

Warsh is right. Trump’s reckless tariffs and disastrous war in Iran made this economy. Now he owns it.

$2.8B dollars could go a long way to helping people here at home instead of furthering Israel’s atrocities.

Not to mention Netanyahu routinely blocks the United States from seeking justice for our own citizens killed by Israeli settlers in the West Bank. We’ll work to block this weapons sale, but the Administration will like use emergency authority to bypass accountability in Congress.
- TS
The United States has no business sending Netanyahu billions of dollars’ worth of bombs after his record of indiscriminate violence against Palestinian civilians, including children.

Another chance to start a new, $100+ billion endless foreign war? Another chance to send diesel costs skyrocketing to all-time highs? Another chance to send gas prices above $4/gal? Another chance to strip health care from millions of Americans?

American women are dying from ectopic pregnancies at a higher rate, with the sharpest increases in states with abortion bans. These preventable deaths are occurring because Republicans have made doctors too afraid to provide lifesaving care. We must restore Roe.

Trump can put whoever he wants in charge of the Fed, but the same inescapable truth remains: His economy is awful, and it’s getting worse by the day. The Fed hiking rates was the inevitable result of his failures and will raise Americans’ costs in countless ways.

Trump votes by mail himself, but wants to make it harder for you to do the same. Why? Because he knows he's broken his promises to the American people and will face the consequences this November.

BREAKING: Republicans JUST blocked Democrats' bill that would have ENDED Trump's tariffs on Canada and his ability to keep starting these trade wars. This would have saved Americans THOUSANDS of dollars. But Republicans chose once again to put Trump's approval over the American people.

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.

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.

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?

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.
