President Trump's tariffs are going to slow economic growth, weaken employment, and send inflation skyrocketing. What's his response? Disable the non-partisan agency trusted by Wall Street and Main Street alike that measures growth, employment, and inflation. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...
Trump’s judicial nominations make clear he is prioritizing radical conservative ideology over legal experience. Federal judges have a duty to the Constitution and the rule of law—not to expand Trump's executive power. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
@revadamtaylor.bsky.social agrees: the GOP’s tax bill is deeply immoral. Thank you for speaking up for the most vulnerable and those stuck in the quicksand of poverty when they are under attack here in Washington.
Under Secretary Hegseth, this is literally what the Pentagon's budget page looks like now. But it may as well be his plan to stand by our allies. Or strengthen military readiness. Or protect classified intel that could put warfighters’ lives at risk. He needs to find answers—fast.
Senator Chris Coons holds up a printout of a web page that is supposed to lead the Pentagon's budget request. It is a "404 not found" error page.
A budget is a moral document. The GOP budget—slashing Medicaid and food stamps to rig the tax code in favor of the ultra-wealthy—is an immoral document. I was honored to welcome hundreds of faith leaders to the Senate steps today to bear witness against this disastrous tax bill.
Grateful to co-host a vigil at the US Capitol with Rev. @jimwallis.bsky.social for hundreds of faith leaders to bear witness against the GOP’s immoral tax bill. As Rev. Wallis reminded us, we are taught: “Do not forget the least of these.” That’s exactly what this immoral legislation does.
RFK Jr spent decades peddling anti-vaccine conspiracies. Now, he’s defunding global vaccine projects, cancelling research, and firing the doctors and scientists who oversee our national vaccine guidance. This is why I opposed his nomination. His legacy at HHS will lead to deaths at home and abroad.
Update: this group has marched to the Capitol steps, where Sens. Chris Coons, Raphael Warnock and Chuck Schumer have met them. They’re signing as they march.
There’s a sizable protest of what appears to be entirely faith leaders and clearly outside the Capitol right now, with the demonstrators speaking out against the GOP-led budget. It’s a Pentecost gathering “for a moral budget.” Lawmakers are also expected to appear.
Faith leaders gathered for a rally.
Faith leaders gathered for a rally. One sign reads “Jesus weeps! No SNAP cuts!”
Faith leaders gathered for a rally. Signs read “Mennonites for peace” and “God calls me to love my neighbor.”
Our warfighters are not political tools to patrol the streets of our cities or to suppress the political views of their fellow citizens. They put on the uniform of the United States to defend Americans and American values. Today, they’re being called on to police American citizens on American soil.
I recently heard from a Delawarean named Brigitte who has complex cerebral palsy and relies on Medicaid for a wheelchair, home care, therapies, and transportation. For Brigitte and millions of others, Medicaid means independence and community. We can’t let Republicans gut this lifeline.
Trump’s travel ban on 19 countries takes effect today—a revival of his cruel, immoral Muslim ban. It will once again cause chaos, inflict pain, and tear families apart. Congress must act, and it can start by passing my NO BAN Act.
Republicans just aren’t telling the truth when they say their tax bill won’t cut anyone off Medicaid. The truth is, 16 million people will lose health care, and everyone will pay the price—including you.
No matter how hard you try—and believe me, I’ve tried—you can’t fit more than 1,440 minutes into a day.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ So why is the leader of our nation’s military spending any of his minutes renaming oiler ships?
The GOP's tax bill is a bad deal—for children, workers, the middle class, families, seniors. They all pay more so billionaires can get another tax break. Does that sound fair to you?
