Frank Bisignano will be a hatchet man for Trump's and Musk's plans to slash and burn the Social Security Administration. I’m voting NO on Bisignano to protect millions of Americans who rely on these benefits.

The White House exists to serve the American people, not Elon Musk's business portfolio. I, along with several of my Senate colleagues, am calling for a full investigation into Musk's abuse of his position as a White House advisor in securing foreign business deals for his companies.
This is great news that will keep hundreds of Delaware families from shattering.
But we can’t lose focus—the Trump administration is trying to cancel programs that provide free Narcan that likely helped lower drug deaths in our state.
Why do Republicans want 3 million more Americans to struggle with medical debt in order to fund tax breaks for billionaires? www.thirdway.org/memo/gop-med...
American citizens at home and around the world are less safe because of President Trump’s non-existent national security strategy.
President Trump’s consistent hirings, firings, and upheaval sap morale from our warfighters and intelligence officers, degrade our military readiness, and leave us less prepared to respond to threats from our adversaries.
The second hundred days of national security under President Trump will apparently be just as chaotic as the first hundred.

Today, U.S. Senators Thom Tillis (R-NC) & Chris Coons (D-DE) & Reps. Kevin Kiley (R-CA) & Scott Peters (D-CA) are reintroducing the Patent Eligibility Restoration Act (PERA), one of several important bills aiming to rebalance the patent system to further U.S. innovation: tinyurl.com/2m5d4ywt. (1/2)
I just reaffirmed my oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution and the rule of law on the steps of the Supreme Court on #NationalLawDay.
While Trump, Musk, and DOGE relentlessly attack the rule of law, and trample the Constitution, I’ll keep working to defend our democracy.
Trump's, DOGE's, and the GOP's cuts to medical research won't just stunt the search for cures for decades to come—they're taking away hope from Americans whose lives depend on that research. I spoke out at today's @senateapprops.bsky.social hearing because I know that need for hope too well.

Yesterday, we gathered on Capitol Hill for a #WorldMalariaDay reception to highlight the critical role of U.S. investments to save lives from malaria, while making America safer, stronger, and more prosperous.

Some of my Republican @senateapprops.bsky.social colleagues have leveled absurd claims about Trump's disastrous cuts to biomedical research in today's hearing. It's about to be my turn to speak. Watch here: www.appropriations.senate.gov/hearings/bio...
A big majority of voters already think Trump’s policies are what’s damaging our economy. The American people don’t believe you, Mr. President.
Tariffs and chaos are bad for the economy, actually.
Annie and I are praying for the injured members of the UD community and the family of the person who was killed in Tuesday’s horrific crash on Main Street.
100 days of Donald Trump. 100 days of broken promises.
In 100 days, Trump has put tariffs on, taken tariffs off, delayed them, increased them, and now changed them once again. How are you going to grow our economy when manufacturers don’t know what tariffs they’ll face a month from now, let alone five years from now?
Social Security offices are already overwhelmed. So why is DOGE slashing staff and creating chaos? Trump and Musk call it "efficiency." I call it breaking a system Delawareans rely on. www.yahoo.com/news/social-...
Legal scholars across the political spectrum have described the past 100 days as an assault on our democracy by a president who believes he’s above our laws. Our nation's Constitution is not a list of suggestions. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/28/o...
