I plan to oppose every cabinet level nominee that is considered on the Senate floor going forward. The recklessness on display has already proven to be incredibly harmful and will only continue, unless we do something. I will do everything in my power to stand up for Delaware.
Happy #LunarNewYear to all who are celebrating in Delaware and across our nation and world! As we welcome the Year of the Snake, I am wishing everyone a year of transformation and new beginnings, and as always, plenty of time spent celebrating with loved ones. 🧧🐍
I remain laser focused on protecting Delawareans from Trump’s attack on federal dollars. If President Trump wants to make changes to the federal budget, he must approach Congress to do so. As clearly laid out in our constitution, Congress has power of the purse.
We had productive discussions, and I voted him out of committee. I was prepared to vote ‘yes’ on his confirmation today on the floor, but with Donald Trump’s decision last night to unconstitutionally freeze funding approved by Congress, I could not support Mr. Duffy’s nomination.
Earlier today, I voted "no" on Sean Duffy's nomination to be Secretary of Transportation. As a member of the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee, I had one-on-one conversations with Mr. Duffy about critical transportation and infrastructure initiatives Delawareans rely on. 🧵
I'm hearing from Delawareans that they are nervous about what Trump's unconstitutional funding freeze may mean for them. Community health centers, nonprofits, free school lunch programs, and more are at risk. This is not a game. These are people's lives. This must be reversed.
No matter what the President attempts to do, he cannot rewrite this stain on our history. I proudly joined Senator Patty Murray on this resolution. If my colleagues on the other side of the aisle support law enforcement, they'll do the same.
It shouldn't be too much to ask for senators to oppose unconditional pardons for people found guilty of assaulting Capitol Police officers. I'm introducing a simple, one-line resolution condemning these pardons & will try to pass it on the Senate floor this week.
Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. I join all those around the world in mourning and remembering the 6 million Jews and the millions of other victims murdered during the Holocaust. We must always stand up against antisemitism and hate in all its forms.
I was trapped up in the Gallery on January 6th. Allowing those that were involved to escape justice is an insult to our democracy and to the police who were injured and lost their lives. President Trump can issue as many pardons as he likes – but they will not change the truth.
Why STOP progress? We came together to pass the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law which has been building modern roads, bridges, & ports, creating thousands of jobs. The Trump Admin is putting our future in REVERSE by illegally halting funding for it. Delaware is counting on it!
Today is the 52nd anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade. The overturning of Roe in 2022 has made women less safe across our nation - and it has cost lives. Now more than ever, I am committed to defending our freedom to make our own health care decisions.
I’m deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Cecile Richards. An advocate for reproductive health care and abortion rights across our nation, millions of women and girls are healthier today because of her tireless work. For that, we are forever grateful. May she rest in peace.
