Senator Kaine and I are on the Senate floor as we work to turn off Trump's tariffs, which are ultimately just a national sales tax on consumers.
While prices are going up & your retirement savings go down, Senate Republicans are working overtime to make matters worse.

This is the country we love, and @democrats.senate.gov are always going to stand up for it.

Reposted bySenator Lisa Blunt Rochester
“We do this because this is our country. We do this because this is our democracy. And we do this because we recognize that we are all in this together.”
@bluntrochester.senate.gov: “Make no mistake: Democrats are going to continue to fight and each of us must do our part in this moment.”
It's common sense: when we're facing workforce shortages, we should be helping those who served their time find good jobs while simultaneously supporting our local businesses and economies.
I'm proud to reintroduce the Clean Slate Act — let's get it done.

Today we're marking Second Chance month by announcing the reintroduction of the Clean Slate Act.
This bipartisan bill will offer a fresh start to those who have served their time and paid their debt. It’s about jobs, housing, and education – and offering people a second chance.
Let Me Be Blunt: the first 100 days of this administration have been nothing but chaos, confusion, and uncertainty.
Here are ten major ways they've made life worse for American families ⬇️

Heartbroken by the tragedy that took place on the @udelaware.bsky.social campus yesterday.
I'm praying for the family, friends, and loved ones of the student who lost their life and for the other community members who were injured to make a full recovery.

Stopped by to thank doctors from the American College of Emergency Physicians for everything they do to keep Delaware healthy.
Getting wait times down, pushing back on abortion bans, and reducing burnout are priorities we share – I’ll do everything I can to support their work.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau helps Americans who get scammed, cheated, and ripped off by big companies. Now, the Trump Administration is trying to destroy it.
But Congress created the CFPB, and we'll fight hard to defend it.

Just spent a few hours on the steps of the capitol with
@booker.senate.gov & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social as people from all across the country shone a light on the harms of the Republicans' budget.
There are all sorts of ways for you to show up in this moment— all you're called to do is your part.
I’m thankful to all the Delawareans who showed up today to make their voices heard at our town hall.
In this moment, everyone has a role to play to defend our democracy.
As your elected officials, we are working together to hold this administration accountable & fight for you.
Our Delaware delegation town hall is starting now!

Saddened to learn that Alexis Herman, our first Black Secretary of Labor, has passed.
Her deep sense of justice guided her efforts to uplift workers, empower women, and fight for racial and economic equality.
Her memory will be an inspiration for generations to come.
The Trump administration is now trying to use the FBI to go after judges they don’t like.
Make no mistake: this is an administration relentlessly attacking the judicial system to stifle opposition and get their way. This is a red-alert moment.
Today is Yom HaShoah - Holocaust Remembrance Day.
I join those around the world in remembering the atrocities of the Holocaust and the millions of people - including 6 million Jews - who were killed in one of humanity’s darkest and most evil acts.
They stripped the Education Department of all the programs to help our kids and kept the parts that go after borrowers already struggling to make ends meet.
Let’s be clear: They’re selling out families everywhere to pay for their billionaire tax cuts.
Pete Hegseth’s consistent irresponsible mishandling of sensitive information endangers our national security.
I said it before and I’ll say it again, he is not qualified to lead our military.
This Earth Day, take a moment to appreciate the beautiful place we call home. From our beaches to our farms, our outdoor spaces make Delaware a truly special place.
I’ll never stop working to protect our communities and secure a livable planet for future generations.
Join us on Saturday for an in-person town hall!
