Because of Trump’s cuts to health care, rural hospitals across the country are at risk of closing. Republicans in Congress voted for this. Trump signed it into law. And we’re going to hold them accountable for it in November.

This is an appalling and unconscionable tragedy – 175 people lost, most of whom were school children. There are no words. This war of choice is creating disastrous consequences.

President Trump and MAGA Republicans are throwing everything at the wall to jam through their voter suppression bill. I’ve always been and will continue to be a NO on the SAVE Act.

Trump is calling higher oil prices “a very small price to pay” adding that “only fools would think differently.” The reality is that Americans don’t want another war and they don’t want higher prices at the pump. Trump is out of touch.

We are a secular democracy. If you don't like the freedom of religion, you are welcome to move somewhere else. In America, you can be Christian, Muslim, Jewish, or anything else. It's written into our Constitution. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Get lost with this garbage.

Donald Trump is throwing gasoline on the flames of war in Iran, while at home, Americans are paying higher prices for gasoline at the pump. Take a walk with me to see how prices are skyrocketing as a result of this illegal war.

There is a growing sickness in the Republican Party that spawns this virulent hatred. Replace 'Muslims' with any other faith & this man would be run out of Congress. Their tolerance for this bigotry is a cancer in their ranks. Hate, in all its forms, should find no refuge here.

Because of President Trump’s policies, we're seeing prices soar for everyday items, while job opportunities continue to disappear. Trump’s tariffs and unnecessary war in Iran will only make things worse.

My constituents are already feeling the consequences of President Trump’s war in Iran. Heating oil and gas prices are rising sharply across New Hampshire thanks to President Trump, worsening the affordability crisis many in our state already face.

High gas prices aren’t just painful at the pump – literally anything that is shipped (that is to say, almost everything) is affected by fuel prices.
- TK
Trump’s words speak for themselves. He thinks the surge in gas prices is a “very small price to pay.” That might be true for him and the Epstein class, but not for regular working people.

Scores of children were killed at school. A deeply horrific killing because of a war of choice. Secretary Hegseth cannot sweep this under the rug. There needs to be a full and impartial investigation—we need answers and then accountability.

It took Trump 10 days to create an energy crisis reminiscent of the 1970s, replace Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei, and weaken our alliances worldwide. He put American servicemembers in harm’s way, resulting in seven deaths. None of this made you safer or better off.

Americans can't catch a break. President Trump took away their health care. He took away their food assistance. And now his reckless war with Iran is driving up the cost of gas. Working families can't afford Trump's agenda.

Trump’s illegal war in Iran is causing the largest oil shock in history. Gas prices are spiking, and Americans will be feeling the pain at the pump. Meanwhile, Trump is not ruling out sending ground troops into Iran. Americans do not want an expensive and endless war abroad.

BREAKING: Donald Trump just betrayed every fan who’s been exploited by Ticketmaster. This fine is less than 1% of Live Nation’s revenue last year AND lets them continue to rip off fans with a 15% “Ticketmaster Tax." It's wrong. We need to break up Ticketmaster and Live Nation.

The SAVE Act is NOT about strengthening voter ID. It's a way for this regime to steal upcoming elections. Republicans want to silence MILLIONS of eligible voters by making it harder to register to vote. And married women, you're one of the SAVE Act's perfect targets.
