THIS WEEK: The Senate will vote to pass our war powers resolution and affirm Congress' constitutional authority on matters of war and peace. Will Republicans stand with the majority of Americans who don’t want another endless war?

The President is clearly angry that his own policies have been a disaster for our economy. If Trump wants someone to blame, he should simply look in the mirror.

Anyone with two eyes and half a brain knows exactly what the DOJ’s criminal probe into Jerome Powell represents: a brazen attempt by Donald Trump to weaponize the DOJ and bully America's central bank into submission.

Jay Powell and the Fed aren’t the reason Trump’s economy and his poll numbers are in the toilet. If he’s looking for the person who caused that he should look in the mirror.

Donald Trump’s assault on the Fed’s independence continues, threatening the strength and stability of our economy. This is the kind of bullying that we’ve all come to expect from Donald Trump and his cronies. Anyone who is independent and doesn’t just fall in line behind Trump gets investigated.

No more endless wars? Add it to Donald Trump’s endless list of broken promises.

It was an incredible honor to meet Rabbi Ulman of Bondi and Ahmed al-Ahmed, the hero who saved countless lives during the antisemitic terrorist attack at Bondi Beach. Ahmed is a role model for us all. We must continue to fight antisemitism, hatred and bigotry wherever it rears its ugly head.

Trump’s economy is leaving workers behind. As families grapple with the surging cost of health care and the cost of everyday life keeps going up, it’s harder than ever to find a job.

Today’s vote on Venezuela was an important one. Americans are hurting—it’s time for Trump to prioritize them and stop waging war.

Senate Democrats want to lower your costs and tackle the affordability crisis. Senate Republicans want to aid and abet Donald Trump’s adventurism in Venezuela and risk yet another endless war. The contrast is clear – and the American people are with us.

Today we send a powerful message to the Trump administration: no more endless wars.

JUST NOW: The Senate advanced @kaine.senate.gov and my bipartisan war powers resolution, which would block the Trump administration’s use of the U.S. armed forces to engage in hostilities within or against Venezuela unless authorized by Congress.

What we all saw yesterday, the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, was absolutely sickening. ICE does not belong in our neighborhoods.

The Trump plan is to put money from Venezuelan oil sales into offshore accounts? Sounds like a slush fund for Trump’s worst impulses and more evidence that his only concern is enriching himself and his big oil donors.

We need public hearings NOW. The American people deserve transparency and accountability for this administration’s dangerous actions in Venezuela and their plans to create more chaos in the region.

Trump has completely ABANDONED his promise to put America First. How does spending years and potentially billions of taxpayer dollars in Venezuela help families pay their rent, their mortgages, their grocery bills, their electric bills, their health care bills?

Nothing says “democracy is coming back” like Donald Trump, Rick Scott and Pete Hegseth hand picking regimes across Latin America. This is deranged and must be wholly rejected.

Trump's White House released a maliciously false account blaming Capitol Police for the violence on January 6th. While Trump pardons insurrectionists and lets those who attack our officers walk free, we stand with our first responders. We'll make sure their sacrifices that day are not forgotten.

The Trump administration's briefing gave us no clear answer to what comes next in Venezuela. Americans are sick and tired of the endless wars.

On January 6, 2021, thousands invaded the Capitol with the intent of disrupting and overthrowing our government—and Trump urged them to do it. We can never forget this day. We have an obligation to remind people of the truth and the fragility of this democracy.

This is disgusting. Trump is planning to cut off $10B in funding for child care and crucial social services in 5 blue states including New York. We should be expanding access to child care for American families. Instead, Trump is playing politics with our children’s lives.

The Trump admin's briefing on Venezuela posed far more questions than it answered When the United States engages in this kind of regime change and so-called nation building, it always ends up hurting the United States I left the briefing feeling that it would again www.youtube.com/shorts/CKAUw...

Democrats are focused on lowering costs for Americans, while Donald Trump and Republicans are spending all of their time on foreign wars, on ballrooms, and on private jets. How is this America first?

Tens of millions of Americans are now locked into sky-high health premiums, and millions are going without health insurance—all because Republicans let the ACA enhanced premium tax credits expire. Democrats will not stop fighting to lower health costs the American people.

Donald Trump’s promise to keep America out of foreign entanglements is now as worthless as his promise to release the Epstein Files. And it’s the American people who will pay the price.

THIS WEEK: I will join Senators Kaine, Schiff, and Paul in forcing a vote on our bipartisan War Powers Resolution to stop any further military action in Venezuela without Congressional approval. The American people did not sign up for another round of endless wars.

New York is facing the highest flu levels in over 20 years as flu rates surge across America. And yet, HHS just slashed children's vaccine recommendations including the flu. RFK Jr. is putting our children in danger. He's making America sicker. And it will lead to more deaths.

What comes next for Venezuela? The Trump administration's story keeps changing by the hour. No plan. No clarity. Only chaos.

Lowering costs or reckless conflict in Venezuela? I’ll bet 90% of Americans prefer the former. Trump and Republicans are completely out of touch.

What does Trump’s adventurism in Venezuela do to help Americans facing an affordability crisis and spiked health care costs?

We must focus on lowering costs for the American people, not starting new wars on a whim with no tangible strategy.

As the affordability crisis spirals out of control and people’s health care costs skyrocket, this administration’s actions in Venezuela make one thing clear: Donald Trump is the least ‘America First’ POTUS in our country’s history.

The idea that Trump plans to now run Venezuela should strike fear in the hearts of all Americans. The American people have seen this before and paid the devastating price.
