Republicans just made it clear where they stand. By passing their big bad bill, they’re selling out working Americans and families everywhere to help those who need no extra help. But make no mistake: We’ll never stop fighting to protect the people Republicans left behind today.
BREAKING: Senate Republicans pass Trump’s big tax breaks and spending cuts bill after a turbulent all-night session. Follow live updates.
With the way they’re trying to rush this bill - handwritten notes, backroom deals, and all - it’s like they don’t want you to know what’s in it. That’s because they don’t. This big bad bill sells out the American people, and they’re doing everything they can to sneak it through.
A post from Senator Amy Klobuchar that reads "Delay on floor: The Republicans hand wrote more paybacks into the 900 plus page bill and no one can figure out what they are. I mean it only adds 4 trillion plus in debt already so why not add some more by hand."
Republicans just voted NO to save funding for labor and delivery rooms for mommas and babies. @bluntrochester.senate.gov asked a simple question: do we stand for billionaires or moms and babies? Republicans voted with the billionaires and threw mommas and babies under the bus. It’s cruel.
It's sunrise, and Republicans are scrambling behind closed doors to get the votes for their big ugly bill.   Here's what we know: this bill would slash vital programs, and those huge cuts don't even cover the cost of their billionaire tax breaks.   Stay tuned today.
Today’s the day we’re voting on Republicans’ bill that would kick millions off their health care and force millions more to go hungry all to give a tax break to those who need it the least. I’ll continue to bring your stories to the Senate floor as we fight to stop this cruelty.
Republicans’ newest version of their Big Bad Budget bill cuts $100 billion MORE from Medicaid than the original. It’s not just cruel, it makes no sense. But this fight isn’t over. Keep making your voice heard, and together we’ll do everything we can to kill this bill.
This decision further constrains the courts’ ability to serve as a check on an executive branch that continues to demonstrate its willingness to put political goals above the Constitution. Trump’s hand-picked Justices just weakened our ability to stand up for our communities.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court limited judges' power on nationwide injunctions, leaving the fate of Trump's birthright citizenship order unclear.
In our meeting, the nominee to lead the CDC told me she didn’t believe members of ACIP had conflicts of interest. Now, after RFK Jr. fired them all, she’s changed her tune. We need to pass my VACCINE Act to prevent reckless leaders from putting our kids’ health at risk.
Was glad to welcome AARP Delaware to discuss health and food security for Delawareans. We agreed: we can’t let Republicans’ proposed cuts to Medicaid and SNAP and higher prescription drug prices make life harder for tens of millions of older Americans.
I welcomed the Delaware Coalition Against Domestic Violence for an important conversation about protecting federal funding for domestic violence programs, and I was moved by the stories they shared with me. I’ll do everything I can to protect funding for these critical programs.
ACIP exists to make sure vaccines are safe & effective. By replacing experts with vaccine skeptics, RFK Jr. has undone the credibility of this nonpartisan panel and put public health at risk. This meeting isn't about safety— it's a further effort to undermine faith in vaccines.
For the first time since Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. replaced all the members of the vaccine committee, it is meeting in Atlanta.
Constituents have told me how Medicaid empowers them to hold jobs, live normal lives, and participate as full members of society. They’re not going to just “get over it.” When we hear from people back home about policies we’re voting on, our job is to listen.
Mitch McConnell reacts to concerns about Medicaid cuts: "I know a lot of us are hearing from people back home about Medicaid. But they'll get over it"
Republicans have been piecing together a puzzle that, when fully assembled, is the blueprint for a national abortion ban. I joined @murray.senate.gov and several colleagues to shine a light on the pieces of this harmful puzzle, and how we’re going to fight to protect access to reproductive care.
Republicans want a national abortion ban, but they can’t pass it outright, so they’re building one piece-by-piece. It started 3 years ago with the Dobbs decision— but now they’re trying to go even further. Together, we’re fighting to make sure this is one puzzle they never finish.
