I just introduced legislation that would refund you for Trump’s illegal tariffs.

My thoughts are with the children, families, congregants, staff, & first responders at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan. Violence against Jewish communities must be met with zero tolerance. I am grateful to the local officers who responded quickly as we continue to monitor the situation.

Restaurants are the lifeblood of our communities, but they face serious challenges with the steep cost of credit card swipe fees. Today, I spoke with the National Restaurant Association about how my bipartisan Credit Card Competition Act would lower costs for businesses and consumers.

Every American deserves to feel safe in their place of worship. I’m appalled by this attack on a synagogue in Michigan, especially as Jewish communities across our country face increasing threats from antisemitism. There can be no place for violence or hate in our nation.

We’re once again seeing AI-generated content spreading misinformation about elections, this time in Hungary. It’s increasingly clear that AI-generated misinformation is influencing elections here in America and around the world and needs to be reined in. www.reuters.com/world/hungar...

An important new U.N. investigation finds Russia’s abduction of thousands of Ukrainian children amounts to crimes against humanity. The world must stand together to reunite these children with their families and hold those responsible accountable.

He calls the Iran war — which has already killled 7 Americans and hundreds of civilians — "an excursion." And he’s spending tens of billions of dollars on it. Does that make your life great again yet?

Trump’s war is making it harder for you to buy a house.

The Senate just passed the first major housing supply legislation in nearly 30 years. The goal is simple: Build more homes to rent and buy, and drive down prices.

My heart is with the families and everyone affected by the violence at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield. I am monitoring the situation, and people should follow the direction of law enforcement. I’m grateful for these first responders for their quick response.

Trump promised no new wars. And now the American people are paying for his lies.

The Senate just passed the biggest housing bill in more than 30 years. The House should pass it immediately so we can lower housing costs for families across the country.

We need a new way home, and I'm proud that two of my bills were included in the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act that just passed the Senate. Everyone should have a safe, affordable place to live - it's time to get this bipartisan vision signed into law.

Housing shouldn’t be out of reach for working Americans. We need to kick our efforts into overdrive. Let’s build more homes, expand loan support to veterans, and ultimately lower the cost of housing for millions of families.

Republicans control the White House, House, & Senate and orchestrated this DHS funding lapse. Democrats have offered commonsense plan to rein in ICE & CBP while keeping the rest of DHS fully funded. GOP must join us & stop out-of-control ICE and CBP from trampling on the rights of all Americans.

Further mischief on offshore wind means further pause on permitting reform. Let’s hope we can go forward without further mischief.

In 24 hours, Republicans have blocked FIVE attempts from Democrats to fund TSA, FEMA, our cyber defenses, & Coast Guard while talks continue to rein in ICE & Border Patrol. Republicans are holding TSA agents' paychecks hostage so they can give more $ to ICE, with no reforms.

Please stop these attacks on our fellow Americans and communities in our nation. Islamophobia fuels hate and violence. Equating Muslims to terrorists and accusing an elected official of being a threat are unacceptable and against the oath we swore to become Senators.

Trump’s missile strike in Iran hit a girls’ school and killed innocent children. The American people deserve answers.

Our disaster recovery efforts should not be held up by Republican's demands to give more money to ICE without any reforms. I'm headed to the floor with @padilla.senate.gov to reject that false choice and call up legislation to open FEMA today.

26 million+ Americans don't have health care. Thousands of veterans are homeless. Children go to bed hungry in this country every single night. We do not suffer a poverty of resources. We suffer a lack of moral imagination.

My new bill to ensure basic wage and overtime protections for home care workers is just the start. I'll keep fighting to pass major pro-worker policies like: ✅raising the minimum wage ✅national paid leave ✅affordable child care ✅the PRO Act.

ICYMI: Republicans blocked a bill that would have FULLY funded TSA, Coast Guard, and FEMA. TWICE. They are choosing to continue ICE's lawless violence over paying federal workers at those agencies and keeping airport security lines moving quickly.

To my Republican colleagues: If you care about TSA, don't talk the talk, walk the walk.

The suspension of the Global Entry program was one of many misguided and terrible decisions made during Kristi Noem’s disastrous tenure as Secretary of Homeland Security. It increased the burden on CBP officers and made lines longer for passengers. 🧵

Some good news: We just passed bipartisan legislation in the Senate to build more homes, drive down costs, and to limit the number of homes private corporations can buy up over people just trying to afford the American dream.

Last year, Trump and Republicans made huge cuts to health care in the Big Beautiful Bill and gave 25 billion of those dollars to the Pentagon. Now, they’re about to come to Congress to ask for more money for Trump’s war of choice with Iran. What did they do with last year’s money?

I'm praying for the victims of the shooting at Old Dominion University today, and deeply appreciate the work of our law enforcement officers. I will continue to monitor this closely and encourage all to heed officials' instructions about avoiding the area around Constant Hall.

GOOD NEWS: We just passed one of the biggest housing reform packages in years and it could actually bring down the cost of buying a home. The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, including several of my bills, just passed the Senate. Now let’s get it through the House and signed into law!

It isn't just gas prices — everything from groceries to travel costs could cost more for Minnesotans because of this war. The Administration still has not made the case or laid out a strategic path forward.

Society is judged by its treatment of children. I spoke at the National Network for Youth Congressional Briefing about my Bipartisan Homeless Children and Youth Act with Senator Katie Britt. Every young person deserves a safe place to lay their head at night. We will keep fighting.

It has been more than 200 days since I called on the Trump administration to have a plan for tariff refunds. Now, Trump’s delay is costing $20 million per day in interest. American small businesses, workers, and consumers need their money back without delay.

Instead of building on the most basic wage rights for home care workers, Trump wants to tear them down. I'm fighting back with a new bill to make sure the people who do the important work of home and domestic care get AT LEAST the same basic protections as other workers.

LIVE NOW: Home care workers make a world of difference for nearly 10 million Americans. I'm with @kim.senate.gov to introduce a bill that guarantees crucial minimum wage and overtime protections for home care workers and domestic workers. No loopholes. No exceptions.

Congress gave the Pentagon over a trillion dollars in the last budget and a 150 billion topper from the Big Beautiful Bill.
