Americans rely on a strong economy, and the success of our economy relies on an independent Federal Reserve.
In the 111-year history of the Federal Reserve, no President has ever tried to undermine its independence as brazenly as this one.

@warnock.senate.gov is right - In addition to RFK Jr's lack of credentials, his agenda is a threat to the health of the American people.
It's time for Secretary Kennedy to resign.
The Trump administration promised to bring down costs for everyday Americans, but day after day we see costs continue to rise.
They continue to prove they’re not looking out for everyday Americans, only their billionaire friends and donors.
When congressional Republicans and the Trump administration forced through the largest health care cuts in history, they put hospitals up and down our state at risk.
They were so desperate to give rich people tax cuts, they made it harder for Americans everywhere to get care.
Thanks to the mess this administration and RFK Jr. have created, many in our communities can't access vaccines they need to keep themselves safe and healthy.
They’re not only failing to make us healthier, they’re actively putting lives at risk.
Decisions about how to spend YOUR taxpayer dollars should be made by YOUR representatives.
The Trump administration is trying to silence your voice, take Congress out of the picture, and make even deeper cuts to already-appropriated federal investments.
It’s unacceptable.
This is ridiculous. Just one month after her confirmation, the CDC Director has been fired.
If reports that her ouster is related to support of basic vaccine science, we should all be very concerned.
Lisa Cook's illegal firing is yet another attempt by this admin to denigrate public servants in favor of political loyalists tasked with covering up their struggling economy.
Stability & impartiality in the Federal Reserve is critical.
This administration is threatening both.
My prayers and condolences are with the students whose lives were taken and the community that will forever be marred by this senseless act of violence.
We don’t have to accept these tragedies as a part of daily life.
We can - and must - keep up the fight for commonsense gun safety laws.
I'm glad Mr. Antoni will heed our calls to testify before our committee. Replacing the BLS head won’t change the reality that the economy is suffering.
If our businesses and trade partners can't trust the data we produce, the impact on our economy could be disastrous.
The Trump administration has undone nearly ALL the progress we’ve made in over two decades since Hurricane Katrina.
As extreme weather becomes more frequent, dismantling systems that help us prepare and recover will have devastating consequences.
RFK Jr. is continuing his crusade to undermine trust in the vaccines that keep our communities safe and healthy.
This isn’t making America healthier— there are no winners when we let deadly diseases go unchecked.
Let Me Be Blunt: back-to-school season is going to cost more this year because of the Trump administration.
When the cost of living is already too high, they're taking steps to make getting everything from supplies to nutritious meals harder for our kids and families.
Bad news: Delawareans who get their health insurance on the marketplace will be paying higher rates this coming year - the highest since the last time President Trump was in office.
And it’s directly because of actions taken by the Trump administration.
Two years ago, we celebrated the naming of the Challenge Program’s Gibbs Center in Wilmington. Yesterday, we cut the board (not the ribbon!) for its grand opening.
This center will provide vocational training and mentorship to young Delawareans, and I’m proud to watch the program grow.
1 in 4 Delawareans lives in a child care desert.
That’s why I was proud to champion the American Rescue Plan Act which funded a Child Development Center at Delaware Technical Community College Stanton.
Proud to be there for the groundbreaking in 2023 and the ribbon cutting today!
Luther Towers in Dover provides affordable, safe housing for seniors in Delaware, and I was proud to secure federal funding for roof repairs and key accessibility upgrades.
Today, I got to see those investments in action.
Our federal delegation was able to secure a major federal grant to enable Delmarva Central Railroad to make important upgrades and deliver more efficient and reliable service.
This is huge for our producers and our supply chains alike here in Delaware and across the region.
As the ranking member of the Senate Committee on the Coast Guard, I was glad to visit Coast Guard Station Indian River to learn more about their work and how we in Congress can better support them as they work to keep our coasts and waterways safe.

Trump's tariffs are going to cost you an extra $2,400 a year.
Grocery prices are up, energy bills are up, and inflation is up.
His Big, Ugly Bill is going to raise health care costs for EVERYONE.
Trump and Republicans promised to make things more affordable. They lied.
