My office has heard from Americans struggling to get home as the administration tells them to fend for themselves. In the lead up to this attack, they should have been ready for this. I'll do all I can to ensure my constituents' safe return—the State Department should do the same.

New Mexico Highlands University was represented in our nation’s capital today! I’m proud to see my alma mater leading the way for students back home and expanding opportunities across our state. I look forward to continuing our work together to build on that progress for all New Mexicans.

I gave Secretary Noem multiple chances to apologize to the families of Alex Pretti and Renée Nicole Good for baselessly calling them “domestic terrorists.” She refused. www.youtube.com/shorts/XnyQx...

Trump sent our kids into a war of choice from his beach club in Florida. Americans do not want another endless, costly war in the Middle East. They want health care and lower prices.

Pres. Trump launched a preemptive, costly war without public support or Congressional approval. Now every member of Congress must debate & vote on whether they want to co-sign Trump’s war of choice with Iran. I’m for the bipartisan Kaine-Paul resolution & against Trump’s unauthorized war.

Americans across the Middle East are stranded—and U.S. embassies say they can’t help citizens evacuate. The Trump Administration is not adequately protecting the lives of American citizens. www.businessinsider.com/us-embassies...

If you can’t afford your health care right now, it’s not because we don’t have money for it. It’s because Republicans would rather fund a useless war than help you keep your insurance.

In Delaware, we reward hard work; we don’t diminish it. You worked hard for your Social Security, and you're counting on it to be there when you retire. That's why I'll always defend it for you.

Pres. Trump preemptively launched war on Iran w/ no plan to evacuate Americans in harm’s way. While other countries have flown their people home, many Americans are now stranded. U.S. citizens in the region should register at step.state.gov. RIers in need may contact my office for assistance.

Americans don’t want another forever war. They want affordable health care. They want to feel safe in their communities. They want lower prices. Like you promised.

Secretary Hegseth and Secretary Rubio must promptly appear before Congress and explain to the American people how they so poorly planned for the protection and evacuation of Americans from their war of choice.

The Senate is moving long-overdue housing legislation: The 21st Century Road to Housing Act. Democrats know this is only the first step. We have much more work to do, and we will keep fighting to lower housing costs for working Americans.

Not only is Trump costing taxpayers billions and risking American lives for a war of choice—he has also failed to adequately prepare for the evacuation of American civilians in the region. A disaster and failure of catastrophic consequence.

Trump ran on lowering costs and no war. Now he’s launched a war that's raising costs and will make life even less affordable.

Top law firms are still providing free legal services at Trump's bidding, even though doing so may be a clear violation of the law. Just one day after the administration said it would abandon its defense of its attacks on law firms, they unsurprisingly reversed course. 🧵

Trump has cut funding for Medicaid, ACA tax credits, school lunches, kids cancer research, energy projects, education, and more. But he found the money for another deadly forever war. He’s risking the lives of American troops instead of providing for your needs.

Donald Trump's illegal war with Iran has already cost $2 BILLION. Americans don't want another endless war. We should be funding health care not warfare.

I’ve heard from WA potato farmers that export markets like China and even British Columbia are essentially gone. China and India are now in the potato business, and the competition from them is growing. Meanwhile President Trump’s tariffs are putting us on the sidelines.

We salute the bravery of our troops, pray for their safety, and mourn the service members who have been killed. We owe it to them, their families, and the American people to demand answers and a plan from the Trump administration.

When I spoke with Alex Pretti's parents, they said that Secretary Noem calling him a domestic terrorist was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine being said about their son. Today, Secretary Noem refused to apologize or take any accountability for her actions.

We need a clear justification to go to war. We haven’t gotten it. First it was because of Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Then it was to stop the buildup of Iran’s defenses. The newest line is we attacked because Israel was going to and Iran would retaliate against us anyways.

The Trump administration has failed to provide proper medical care to detained immigrants. Now, it is moving all unaccompanied children who are pregnant to Texas, where abortion is banned. Blocking girls as young as 13 from critical reproductive care is cruel, unsafe, and unjust.

How is Kristi Noem paying $270 million for these luxury jets, one of them including a bedroom, full kitchen, and bar? Using YOUR tax dollars. Instead of dodging questions, Kristi Noem should give the American people an explanation immediately as to why she’s wasting your money.

It is obscene to suggest that we are going to fight Trump's war of choice "FOREVER." Congress must vote to end this immediately. NO WAR WITH IRAN.

The American people deserve an explanation before Trump sends their sons and daughters to fight overseas. Instead, we’ve gotten changing stories from a President who doesn’t even seem focused on the war he just started.

Six servicemembers are dead. Eighteen more are wounded. This is the cost of Trump's illegal strikes in Iran. I'm enraged. I'm heartbroken. And I’m thinking of the families whose loved ones put on the uniform to serve this country — not to be dragged into another reckless war.

The founding fathers set up the Congress as the body that should determine whether to declare war or not because they didn't want the leader of this country to turn into a despot or an autocrat who was going to make decisions without the will of the people.

Under Secretary Noem, ICE has violated our constitutional rights and defied court orders. Two of my constituents are dead. Secretary Noem just admitted there are still 650 ICE agents in Minnesota, still outnumbering sworn Minneapolis police officers. ICE must get out now.

Secretary Noem won’t admit she was wrong. Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and so many other victims of her agents’ use of excessive force are NOT “domestic terrorists.” They’re human beings who were exercising their constitutional rights.
