Nonpartisan budget experts confirm: the cost of Trump’s illegal war is nearly $40 billion — and that comes straight out of taxpayer’s pockets. This war, that no American voted for, continues to take a toll, both on our servicemembers and our wallet.

AI innovation is moving fast, and we have a responsibility to make sure it moves forward responsibly. I’m going to be pushing for guardrails that protect our privacy, strengthen cybersecurity, and keep Americans safe.

A strong bipartisan group of Senators voted to advance discussion of college sports reforms. With the drag on higher education that athletic departments are causing, this discussion can't happen soon enough. Women's and Olympic sports need immediate shoring up. www.espn.com/college-spor...

Who pays for the wedding — the bride’s family or the groom’s? Well, if you’re Donald Trump Jr., you can get a Russian oligarch with a net worth of $300 million and in Putin’s inner circle to pay for a private island in the Bahamas, with lavish fireworks displays and more.

Republicans kicked 5 million Americans—including 1.5 million KIDS—off food assistance to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. I'll be fighting tooth and nail to repeal Trump's cuts. Nutrition assistance is an investment, not charity.

In a student town hall at Gogebic Community College, we talked about the leadership and skills that come from serving in the U.S. Military. There’s no better leadership training than the U.S. Military.

Minnesotans depend on the Postal Service every day – for prescriptions, Social Security benefits, paychecks, and more. That’s why I’m calling on the Postal Service to reopen the Glenville Post Office as soon as possible. https://ow.ly/Iypb50ZO28b

That is $2,179 that Wisconsinites could be using on groceries, child care, or saving for a trip. How much do Wisconsinites need to suffer before this President stops this chaos? www.jsonline.com/story/money/...

I've long called for real guardrails on cryptocurrency to restore Americans' trust in our political institutions and ensure no federal official can profit from their position of power. I cannot support legislation that falls short of that goal.

I voted NO to advance the Clarity Act because it fails to rein in the President's rampant corruption, letting him and his family continue amassing billions from unethical crypto ventures.

It’s a win for teams, programs, student-athletes, conferences, and fans who want to know that both the schools and those who play for them are on stronger, more stable footing.
- CC
Student-athletes will have new scholarship protections, stronger rights around contracts involving their name, image, and likeness, access to millions of new $ in direct payments from their schools, improved healthcare guarantees, and a better process to enforce their rights at school and in court.
- CC
The bipartisan Protect College Sports Act is a strong compromise that addresses transfer and eligibility issues. That’s a win for student-athletes in every sport and at every level.

Today I voted against the CLARITY Act because it undermines Tribal sovereignty and threatens the revenues Indian Country depends on. I do not oppose digital market structure legislation, but any viable legislation absolutely must include commonsense protections for state and Tribal gaming rights.

After six months of an illegal and unnecessary war with Iran, Trump’s war machine has spent more than $38 Billion. If we include increased fuel costs to Americans, the cost is more than $145 Billion and growing. American families don’t need to pay for this disaster. Enough. End the war now.

The President and his party want to let Big Tech write their own rules. While he’s blocked any effort to rein in AI in Congress, that doesn’t mean there aren’t laws on the books we can use to protect people right now.
- TS
These big AI companies should be held civilly and/or criminally liable and prosecuted when their models hurt people. They don’t get a free pass just because they’ve now decided to admit to the dangers of what they’ve created.

We're seeing universities transfer general fund money to cover athletic department deficits, dip into endowments to sustain their general funds, and beg state legislatures for even more sports dollars. (2/3)

This report demonstrates how the unsustainable growth in spending on college sports is amplifying the broader financial pressures on colleges and universities. (1/3)

Tracking the money means cheaper, more competitive prices for patients. Our Patients Deserve Price Tags Act is the first step towards healthcare that’s affordable, accessible, and universal. Let’s get this bill passed.

I introduced the First Step Act because I believe that with the right investment & support, those in prison can turn their lives around. It was a pleasure to meet with @senatorelgiesims.bsky.social to discuss Illinois efforts to reduce recidivism & give people across our state a second chance.

Private equity executives are admitting their funds will "fall short on promises." But as wealthy investors run for the exits, the Trump Administration is trying to stuff private equity into YOUR 401(k). The system is rigged and Trump is making it worse.

The government has spent $38 BILLION on their war with Iran while stripping health care away from millions. These are the priorities of our President.

I pushed for independent oversight. Now, for the first time, we have an official glimpse at the damage—and it’s still an underestimate. Resources drained. Munitions depleted. Diplomacy wrecked. Troops exhausted. The American people deserve the full truth. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I'm holding the first-ever hearing on menopause. Menopause is one of the most under-researched, undertreated, & underdiagnosed fields of healthcare. Congress has been around for more than 230 years. It's well past time Congress acknowledges basic healthcare for tens of millions of Americans.

I joined @semafor.com's Future of Health Forum to talk about why we must guarantee healthcare to every child in America via MediKids. The #1 issue I hear about when traveling across NJ and the country is healthcare. Families need relief. We must give it to them.

The President of the United States is throwing a temper tantrum because he couldn't put his name on yet another building. Trump can complain & threaten all he wants; it won't change the fact that the Kennedy Center belongs to the American people & is not his to remake.

Republicans are forcing 15 million Americans to lose their health care while giant corporations and billionaires get trillions in tax cuts. A Democratic Congress would have the exact opposite priorities. Fund health care, NOT tax breaks for billionaires.

The level of incompetence from this Administration is staggering. The war in Iran has cost at least $40 billion, accomplishing nothing but soaring energy costs, spiking inflation, the depletion of our munition stockpiles and loss of confidence in the U.S. as a reliable ally.
