Over the past year, Trump has steadily hacked away at the pillars of our military. We cannot let this administration erode the trust between our troops and the American people they serve.
Trump once promised transparency about anyone connected to Jeffrey Epstein’s horrific crimes. That promise applies to him, too. Release all the files.
🚨BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes. Read them for yourself. It’s time to end this cover-up and RELEASE THE FILES.
Building an affordable, clean energy future means expanding our nuclear capabilities, and that starts with building our opportunities to strengthen the nuclear workforce. I’m proud to be working towards our own security and bolster international cooperation. rollcall.com/2025/11/05/w...
Trump ran on ending foreign wars, but as president, he's threatened to invade ally after ally – and now we're on the verge of sleepwalking into a war with Venezuela.
Happy Veterans Day. Today isn’t just about gratitude, it’s about action. I’ll honor those who’ve served our nation by fighting for the benefits they’ve earned.
I will continue to fight for an extension of health care tax credits before they expire at the end of this year. We will have a vote in December on improving health care and extending those credits, and I will intensify my efforts to fight for a winning vote.
I understand why some of my Democratic colleagues will support this bill. President Trump and Republicans seem determined to inflict harm on vulnerable Americans not just by making health care less affordable, but also by shutting down SNAP and firing federal employees.
The government has been shut down for 40 days—the longest in history. All Democrats have fought hard for extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits that make health care affordable for millions. I’m voting against the bill given it doesn’t extend these valuable tax credits.
One year after President Trump’s election victory, it’s clear: he and Defense Secretary Hegseth have weakened our alliances, politicized our military, and made America less safe.
Today's Democratic proposal reopens the government, provides immediate relief to millions of Americans whose health care premiums are about to skyrocket, and creates a pathway towards a long-term solution for the tax credits that are critical to health care affordability.
The question of 'who is my neighbor?' is one of the most important in my faith. By cutting off SNAP benefits, it is shamefully clear that Trump's answer does not include starving American kids.
In Delaware and across the country, health care premiums are skyrocketing because of Republican inaction. It's time for Republican leaders to come to the table and negotiate a way out of the shutdown and a restoration of affordable health care options. www.delawarepublic.org/politics-gov...
Trump promised Americans he would reduce prices and improve the economy. Americans can see with their own eyes that his policies are doing the opposite.
🚨 CNBC: "Announced corporate job cuts surging past 1 million so far this year, with 153,000 new layoffs just in October according to Challenger. That is the worst October since 2003."
If the test of a government is how it treats people on the margins of life, Trump's decision to withhold SNAP benefits from hungry children is proof that he has failed.
It was clear to everyone that Trump's corporate-funded ballroom was a magnet for corruption. Now, there's proof of wealthy donors using it to try to buy policy wins from the administration. Trump's East Wing is becoming the epicenter of the swamp.
1 in 4 American kids receive SNAP benefits, and they're going hungry in the richest nation on earth because Trump is refusing to make food assistance available to them. Our littlest Americans shouldn't suffer because of Trump's vindictiveness during this Republican shutdown.
