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.
After firing their medical researchers, it's no surprise this administration doesn't know the facts.
But the research is clear: People WILL literally die because of the GOP tax bill. www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202...
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.
Trump's new executive order is the latest attempt to institute his unpopular and immoral Muslim ban. Fear and bigotry do not keep Americans safe. What this will do instead is cause chaos, inflict pain, and break apart families, just as his prior attempts did.
Read my full statement here:
Turns out taking away health care from up to 16 million people still won’t even come close to paying for Republicans’ new tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy—so they also want to add $2.4 trillion in new debt on our children to get it done. www.cnn.com/2025/06/04/p...
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?
Things Trump’s cabinet secretaries have had to look up:
💵 Social Security Administrator: “What is Social Security?”
📜 Homeland Security Secretary: “What is Habeas Corpus?”
🌊 FEMA administrator: “What is hurricane season?”
Forget about hiring the best. He can’t even hire people who know the basics.
Happy Pride Month!
I’m proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community and fight for equality under the law at a time when it's truly needed. Everyone deserves to feel safe and respected regardless of who they love.
The idea that Ukraine's strike on Russian military assets this weekend is an escalation is ridiculous. Russian bombers have been launching attacks on Ukrainian soil for years.
If Putin wants to protect his bombers from Ukraine, he shouldn't use them to attack Ukraine.
Horrified by another act of violence and hate in Colorado yesterday at an event in support of the Israeli hostages still held by Hamas. I’m praying for the swift recovery of all those injured by this act of terrorism.
Looks like someone in the administration accidentally told the truth. Cutting $880 billion from Medicaid will absolutely slash benefits for kids, seniors, and Delawareans with disabilities. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
In Donald Trump's America, crime always pays – as long as you can pay Trump first. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...
Trump promised to lower prices.
So why are working families suffering while the rich are getting richer? www.cbsnews.com/news/cost-of...
You may not realize it, but you probably know someone who relies on Medicaid or food stamps. They aren't statistics –– they are our neighbors, friends, family, and loved ones.
You should care about what Trump and the GOP are doing to them.
Trump’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ goes far beyond cruel. Cutting food assistance and health care will cost lives.
The $400 million jet Trump is accepting from Qatar isn’t a gift – it’s a modern day Trojan Horse. We all know how that story ended.
Apparently, pardoning the January 6 insurrectionists on day one wasn't enough for Trump.
I agree with Chief Manger. Trump is telling his supporters it's fine to attack police officers as long as you do it for him. www.newsweek.com/ashli-babbit...
