The right to vote is fundamental to our democracy, & the President’s efforts to chip away at that right must be rejected. Yesterday’s temporary, procedural order from SCOTUS doesn’t change the reality that the Constitution empowers states, not the President, to run our elections.

Donald Trump is crushing our farmers. Wisconsin farmers have told me firsthand that between his trade war and Iran war, the businesses they’ve worked so hard for are struggling to stay afloat. And this president’s latest move is sure to make these problems worse.

Trump and his fossil fuel cronies are making millions from his illegal war of choice while families get tipped upside down at the pump and grocery story. This why we need to ban stock trading for Trump and members of Congress. Trump + Big Oil = One Big Criminal Enterprise

Trump is getting richer from the illegal war he started, while Americans pay the price. Since he launched his war with Iran, Americans have spent an additional $71.5 billion on gas—while Trump has made more than $15 million from oil and gas stocks.

Donald Trump started an aimless trade war with Canada based on personal grievances, thinking he could do whatever he wanted with no consequences.

President Trump is trying to stop you from voting by mail this November. Yet he just voted by mail. Because the truth is mail-in ballots are a safe and secure way to vote.

No more extended deployments without end. Our troops will always answer the call, but an incompetent President leaving them stranded and living in uncertainty in a war he can’t end is complete bullshit.

Rising costs and large competitors are wiping out Vermont’s small, family-run dairy farms. I joined Vermont's Agriculture Secretary Anson Tebbetts at Taft’s Milk & Maple Farm to discuss how the federal and state government can better work together to help our dairy farmers stay in business.

Canada didn't start this trade war—Trump did. Trump's tariffs are a tax and you're paying the bill for his pointless and embarrassing tantrum. And just a reminder: Republicans could vote with us to BLOCK Trump's tariffs and bring down costs—they REFUSE.

On these Canada tariffs: Trump’s trying more of the same failed policy and he knows it. The trade war will inevitably just drive up prices on everyone while alienating one of our closest trading partners.

This administration is still trying whatever they can to make it harder to vote, but we’re not backing down. Mail in voting is secure, trusted, and safe – even Trump himself uses it. We will continue working to protect it.

IndyCar races for him. High gas prices for you. President Trump is waving the green flag at his vain IndyCar Grand Prix because he’s already waved the white flag on lowering prices.

This administration's attempts to undermine mail-in voting have nothing to do with "securing our elections." This is all part of their plan to silence voices that don't agree with them, because they know they can't win otherwise.

Our troops could be using UNSAFE or INEFFECTIVE weapons because of Pete Hegseth. That's right. Hegseth gutted the office that tests weapons. @norcross.house.gov and I are pressing Hegseth to reverse these cuts. We shouldn’t unnecessarily risk troops’ lives and our national security.

As Michiganders, we know better than anyone that Canada is one of America’s most critical allies. So the President’s decision to hike tariffs on Canadian goods to 50% is reckless and will be passed down to American companies and consumers. abcnews.com/Business/us-...

Joshua Aviles spent more than 9 months at sea serving our country. While he was away, Trump arrested his father. There is no higher betrayal to our heroes than to have a family member deported by the same nation they sacrificed to defend. This has to stop. www.pbs.org/newshour/nat...

First Trump tried sanctions, then an illegal war, then diplomacy--and they all failed. Now he is back to sanctions. Don’t be fooled. Trump has no plan to end this unwinnable war. Congress must cut off the funding now. Not another nickel.

With his vicious attack on vote by mail, Donald Trump is already trying to stop everyday Americans from voting in the midterms and the Supreme Court is helping him. We must defeat him and reform the court.

Happy birthday to the National Park Service! Take time to visit one of Virginia's national parks today. I will keep working to protect America’s incredible natural treasures and continue to defend the NPS against federal funding and workforce cuts.

Protecting our environment and our Great Lakes is not some little niche thing that should be studied in a lab somewhere. It's about our pocketbooks and our way of life.

Great to be back at the 8th Avenue Diner in Pipestone. Highly recommend the BLT. 🥪 Joined Pipestone Mayor Delaney and Chamber leaders tonight for dinner. Discussed economic development and infrastructure issues.

The Supreme Court is greenlighting the President’s effort to interfere in the upcoming election and stop your vote from counting because he is afraid of accountability. We can’t let him. The fight to protect your right to vote continues.

Honored to meet with first responders at the Bay City Fire Department on this year’s tour. During my time in Congress, I’ve made it a mission to ensure Michigan firefighters have the support they need to do their essential work. Thank you to all who protect the people of Michigan.

Today’s Supreme Court decision gets the Trump Administration one step closer to implementing its voter suppression order and forcing states to hand over personal voter data to the federal government. This is wrong. (1/3) apnews.com/article/trum...

Trump promised to lower costs on day one. He promised immediate relief. Nearly 600 days later, families are still waiting.

Trump just moved to gut Head Start, and Arizona families will feel it along with families across the country. For an administration that calls itself "pro-family," this is about as anti-family as it gets. We need to do everything in our power to fight back.

It’s a disgrace that the highest court in the nation is allowing Trump to put a dagger into the heart of our democracy. Trump’s effort to turn the Postal Service into a voter suppression machine is blatantly unconstitutional – yet his MAGA Supreme Court is refusing to stop it from going forward.

SCOTUS just took another step forward in advancing Trump’s effort to rig the upcoming elections. While this isn’t the final word, as Justice Jackson made clear in her dissent, these threats inject “chaos and uncertainty” into the elections. They should be shut down immediately.

President Trump is restricting Americans’ ability to vote because his presidency is a disaster. Instead of ending his war, repealing his tariffs, and lowering prices for working families, Trump is trying to protect himself from accountability. (1/2) apnews.com/article/trum...

Americans don’t want foreign beef flooding our markets. Our dairy and beef industries are already suffering because of the president’s trade wars, and instead of lifting Wisconsin farmers up, he’s selling them out with this careless move. This is NOT America first.

First war with Iran, now trade war with Canada. Trump’s priorities are clear: Make himself richer, make everything more expensive, hurt American businesses and force middle-class families to pay the price. American families can’t afford another Trump-made price hike. apnews.com/article/trum...
