If this is how we treat those who help us, why would anyone overseas ever want to do so again?

Afghan partners like Zia worked alongside our servicemembers for 20 years of war. Now, Trump is deporting them. Their lives will be in danger the moment they set foot in Afghanistan. www.courant.com/2025/07/18/e...
We are all God’s children, and for decades, we have cared for each other and the world as neighbors for less than 1% of the federal budget. Republicans are voting to bring that era to an end.
Fixed it.
My interns have done great work for Delawareans, and I always look forward to meeting new students who are passionate about public service. If this sounds like you, apply for a fall internship in Delaware or Washington before July 23rd at www.coons.senate.gov/services/int....
Scripture calls on us to love our neighbors, feed the hungry, and care for the least among us.
Trump preparing to burn 500 metric tons of food—enough to feed 1.5 million starving children—is a betrayal of those values. www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...
My friend John passed away five years ago today. His legacy of Good Trouble continues to inspire my own fight and advocacy against injustice.
Earlier this year, I wrote about John's Selma march and what it can teach us about our country today. I hope you'll give it a read.
Donald Trump has been telling you for years that the Epstein Files are real. If you believed him, now he thinks you’re a “weakling” unworthy of supporting him. Why would you ever believe him again?
The American people deserve answers about Emil Bove's record—from his involvement with the Epstein files to his role as a January 6 apologist.
Instead, Republicans are rushing him through to a lifetime appointment on federal appeals court.
What are they hiding?
As I said on the floor of the Senate earlier, the passage of this bill and its cruel cuts to foreign assistance would make Jesus weep.
Tonight, Republicans voted to further weaken our nation’s reputation as a reliable partner. Cutting foreign aid and disaster assistance leaves people in dire situations across the world to fend for themselves or walk into the arms of from China, Russia, and terrorists who seek to exploit them.
I believe the package of spending cuts my Republican colleagues are about to make us vote on – cuts to disaster relief, to food for starving children, to health around the world – these cuts would make Jesus weep.
Let’s be clear: what we are witnessing is an unprecedented use of tariffs and misuse of power.
Trump’s tariffs are isolating us, weakening our economy, and allowing our adversaries to prepare for a new economic order where America isn’t first, its last. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/13/w...
I’m asking my Republican colleagues to think about the example we set and what we are teaching our children when we vote on this spending cuts package today. If we prioritize self-interest over compassion, we risk losing what truly makes us great.

My fellow SFRC Democrats are calling it like it is: Trump’s “America First” agenda has become China’s big break. While the US retreats, China is increasing its diplomatic efforts and foreign aid spending.
Just 3% of Americans believe Trump’s spin on Jeffrey Epstein.
For context, 13% of Americans believe in Bigfoot.

I'm speaking on the floor of the United States Senate in a few minutes against spending cuts threatening foreign aid, health programs, and public broadcasting. Tune in here: www.senate.gov/legislative/...
Trump and his Republicans allies have always prioritized the interests of their donors and the ultra-wealthy over your paycheck, your healthcare, and your retirement. Here's my promise: I'll always be in your corner.
Trump and Republicans just cut Medicaid and food assistance and added TRILLIONS of dollars to the debt in order to rig the tax code further. Now, they want to cut lifesaving foreign assistance and emergency broadcast funding for rural counties.
This isn't America First. It's Americans last.
