Trump has now spent $2.6 billion in tax-payer money to kill offshore wind projects. These projects represented thousands of good union jobs, billions in economic development, and millions of homes worth of desperately needed electricity.

Donald Trump attacked child care funding and sent child care costs skyrocketing through the roof. When Democrats retake the majority, we will be ready on day one to take on the child care crisis and advance real solutions that help families access and afford the care they need for their children.

That could be US exports if the Orange Doofus wasn’t destroying US EV capacity so his corrupt fossil fuel donors can sell more gasoline.

The rising cost of building homes has spurred an affordability crisis that has priced millions of Americans out of home ownership. Today, I spoke with the Illinois Realtors about how we can push federal legislation that would address America’s housing crisis.

The total damage from the ice storm Michigan had a year and a half ago was $440 million. We can’t have a system where you get a bigger or faster payout if you’re in a Republican state. Let’s keep disasters apolitical. youtube.com/shorts/DSK9o...

We could lose New Jersey being the 'Garden State' because of Trump's war in Iran. Listen to what the head of New Jersey's Farm Bureau had to say about the existential threat farmers face.

Three days later and there’s still massive confusion about Trump's "understanding" with Iran. This is foreign policy by clown car. Trump must brief Congress, release the official text of the “understanding”, disclose any secret side deals to the public immediately, and end this war now.

Trump's tantrum is a threat to our national security. Pulte is a partisan goon who is so deeply unqualified to be Acting Director of National Intelligence. Keeping him in this position until Trump gets his way is dangerous and unacceptable.

I honored one of Vikings fans’ favorite podcasts, “Purple Daily,” with the National Association of Broadcasters Service to Community Award. Phil Mackey, Judd Zulgad, Thor Nystrom, and Declan Goff raised nearly $60,000 for Minnesota nonprofits in 2025, including Annunciation Catholic School.

Remember to stay cool and hydrated in triple-digit Southern Nevada heat this week!

To help keep everyone safe, I’ve introduced bipartisan bills to protect our drinking water infrastructure during periods of extreme temperatures and ensure extreme heat events are eligible for the same federal resources as other weather events.
- JR
Extreme heat waves are becoming more common in Nevada, and while we’re used to the heat, these scorching temperatures are dangerous. In fact, extreme heat is the deadliest weather condition.

The decision to go to war was never the President's to make. Senate Democrats have insisted that Congress play its constitutional role and stop these illegal and deeply harmful wars. Senate Republicans have now voted EIGHT times to shirk their duty and greenlight Trump's illegal war of choice.

If Elon Musk paid my ultra-millionaire wealth tax, we could pay for child care for all three and four year olds in America.

Don't forget, Republicans SLASHED health care funding to afford tax breaks for the wealthiest people in our country. So while Americans go into debt to afford the life-saving care they need, Trump and his billionaire buddies are getting richer every day.

Thank you to the Planned Parenthood Alliance advocates from WA who visited me in DC. We talked about ways to ensure that Planned Parenthood can continue to provide care for the tens of thousands of Washingtonians who count on their services.

With tariffs and rising costs creating real uncertainty, it means something to see Kris’ Fresh Frybread still looking out for their neighbors. Local businesses like this, and the people behind them, are why I'm proud to call Arizona home. And the fry bread is worth every bite.

Trump is taking our national security hostage. All the consequences that come from undercutting our national security will fall on Trump and any Republicans who go along with his dangerous, partisan games.

In February, Renee King of Fund Black Founders shared her testimony on the hurdles many Black small business owners face. Last week, we met in Washington to uplift the SPARK Act, which would support the growth and creation of minority-owned small businesses nationwide.

That’s why I introduced the SPARK Act—to supercharge minority entrepreneurship nationwide. We must keep up the fight to ensure every entrepreneur can grow their business and thrive.

Donald Trump, the developer: Tear down a historic building for a project that the public didn’t want or approve. Triple the initial price tag. Make taxpayers foot the bill after promising they wouldn’t.

Access to child care is one of the biggest challenges facing rural Minnesota. Ottertail is showing what's possible when local leaders, small businesses, and families come together to find solutions. I'll keep working to support efforts like these across Minnesota. https://ow.ly/Hita50ZcNg0

The U.S. is not and was not founded as a Christian nation. As we approach the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding, I’m reminded that to defend our nation and our Constitution is to defend religious freedom.

Tesla wants Americans to believe its so-called Full Self-Driving technology is safer than human drivers. Then it should prove it. @blumenthal.senate.gov and I are calling on NHTSA to demand the data, test Tesla’s claims, and strengthen AV safety data reporting.

The president's latest intervention only underscores a simple reality: the biggest obstacle to resolving these issues has not been Senate Democrats or Senate Republicans. It has been the chaos and confusion coming from the White House itself.

At every turn, the president has injected more uncertainty into a process that should be focused on one thing: keeping the American people safe.

First installing Bill Pulte, then nominating Jay Clayton, then demanding unrelated legislation be attached to FISA reauthorization, and now threatening to derail both the confirmation process and a bipartisan reauthorization effort.

The Trump administration's newest corruption scheme just dropped. Kash Patel may be using the FBI's budget as his personal slush fund to pay agents tens of thousands of dollars in exchange for carrying out illegal orders, or as hush money to keep quiet about what they witnessed.

11 years ago, a violent act against the faith community took the lives of nine worshippers at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston. May God bless their memory. We must continue our fight to end racism and hate in every form.

If spending alone guaranteed security, America would be the safest nation on earth. But the Trump administration has proven that the military industrial complex is not creating real security. Instead of giving out blank checks to defense contractors, we must fund programs that support all Americans.

The Trump administration is funding destabilizing nuclear weapon programs—and their demand every year keeps getting higher. Americans need diplomacy, not destruction. We cannot allow $100 billion for Trump to spend on nuclear Armageddon. www.youtube.com/shorts/mCFBt...

The housing shortage is raising costs for renters and homebuyers and is nothing less than an existential threat to the American dream. That's why the ROAD to Housing bill is an important first step toward lowering housing costs by putting in place critical new reforms to build more housing.
