Trump’s war in Iran is hurting our wallets. The national average for gas is up again. $4.46 per gallon. I was just driving around New Jersey, seeing the high prices all over the state and hearing from communities: We can't keep absorbing this war tax.

In 1933, Justice Louis Brandeis said: “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.” What he said was true 93 years ago. It’s even more accurate today. Let us choose democracy over oligarchy.

Patients deserve to know what they’re paying and why they’re paying it. Our bipartisan Patients Deserve Price Tags Act does just that. Check out my recent op-ed for the Sanders Institute on this common sense solution: sandersinstitute.org/hidden-price...

65 years ago, 13 activists boarded buses in DC bound for New Orleans, marking the first freedom ride in U.S. history. As I saw when teaching in a newly integrated school in Mississippi, these individuals inspired a movement that advanced racial equality and fought injustice.

This International Firefighters’ Day, I’d like to applaud the heroism that firefighters display in Michigan and across the country. That’s why I’ve always fought to strengthen federal grant programs that make sure fire departments have enough staff and up-to-date safety equipment and resources.

I will show up for all Minnesotans, whether you're a Republican, Democrat, or Independent. Will work with solution-focused mayors like Hollies Winston of Brooklyn Park to deliver results from fixing roads to public safety. Great to have him there when I laid out my plan to reform state government.

Virginians are paying about $10.8 MILLION more a day on gas than they were two months ago. The reason? Trump's illegal and unwise war against Iran. youtube.com/shorts/AwsMn...

In the U.S., guns are the leading cause of death for children, yet gun manufacturers still market assault weapons to children. No more. We’re demanding that Mountain Billy Gun Lab halt its firearm campaigns geared towards minors immediately.

Gas is $4.46 per gallon. No meaningful action on lowering housing costs. Child care costs still skyrocketing. Trump ran on lowering costs, and instead he’s actively making them worse.

Families can't afford to fill their tank and put food on the table because of Republican wars and tariffs. Health care is more expensive than ever thanks to Republican cuts and obstruction. Americans simply don't care about a stupid ballroom.

U.S. and Iranian ships are exchanging missile fire today in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump’s claims that hostilities have ceased were bullshit. He is lying to the American people and prolonging his disastrous war of choice— And he’s doing it illegally.

Trump can call this war over all he wants… Americans know the truth. It’s way easier to get into a war in the Middle East than it is to get out of one. We’re still deep in this one.

I’m glad to see the Supreme Court has temporarily restored mail access to mifepristone after a lower court tried to get rid of it – and I urge the Court to move swiftly to permanently protect access to this critical medication for women.
- JR
Mifepristone has been used safely and effectively for decades, and restricting access puts women’s lives at risk. 🧵

Prediction markets are rigged against consumers—insider trading, misleading bets & worse returns than Vegas slot machines. A shocking 67% of profits go to only 0.1% accounts.

Family farms are in crisis. We need to end tariffs on our trade allies. We need to provide more assistance after natural disasters. And we need to pass a Farm Bill that gives farmers the price stability they need.

The American people cannot rely on the courts alone to protect their rights. The only real remedy is for Congress to do its job: pass laws that protect the Voting Rights Act, and ban partisan gerrymandering once and for all.
- ES
Politicians shouldn't get to draw the lines of the districts they plan to run in. Nobody gets to cook the books for their party. And the only antidote to what we're seeing now is to pass a federal law that calls on all states to do the same.
- ES
This comes as President Trump kicked off a partisan redistricting war that has rippled across the nation. Here in Michigan, voters made their voices heard in 2018 when we passed a ballot initiative -- with overwhelming bipartisan support -- that ended partisan gerrymandering altogether.
- ES
The Supreme Court again attacked the right to fair representation in Congress. By again slicing away at the protections of the Voting Rights Act, communities of color in Michigan and across the country could see their voices diminished and lose the ability to elect a representative of their choice.

GAS PRICES ARE $4.39 AND CLIMBING I stood at a gas station in Upstate NY with veterans, farmers, and families paying the price every time they fill up. This is Trump country. They don’t want to pay for his reckless Iran war. They’re saying: enough. End the war. Stop the pain at the pump.

When discussing a bill that would tackle housing affordability, Trump reportedly said, “no one gives a [bleep] about housing,” insisting Republicans focus on his voter disenfranchisement bill, the SAVE America Act, instead. This Admin would rather undermine democracy than lower costs for families.

Breaking good news: The Supreme Court just restored access to mifepristone via mail, pharmacy and telehealth. But remember it is simply temporary and the fight to restore a woman’s right to health care access continues state-by-state and on the national level.

Trump passed the largest cuts to Medicaid in history. Hospitals are laying off staff and closing because of him. Right now, in several states like mine, he's using AI to deny seniors on Medicare the treatments their doctors are recommending. These are just facts.

$2,300 – that’s how much MORE the things you buy every day have cost your family since Donald Trump took office. These skyrocketing prices aren’t what he promised you on the campaign trail. We need real solutions to address this cost of living crisis.

This is terrifying. After Director Patel purged the FBI workforce, 9,000 seasoned professionals were forced to work on a Trump pet project. I have repeatedly questioned the FBI about this ill-advised threat to our public safety and readiness.

Hegseth says he’s ordering a “real science” study on women in combat arms. But this isn’t about discovery—it’s about doubt. Women in combat have already proven themselves. The real question is whether this regime will follow the facts or cherry-pick findings to fit its agenda.
