Congratulations to @mark-carney.bsky.social on his electoral success last night! As our closest neighbor and ally, I know my Senate colleagues and I look forward to working together with him to repair our economic and security relationships and defend our mutual sovereignty.
This is what happens when you get rid of due process—you deport U.S. citizens, even children with cancer. This administration is poised to break our laws for the next four years. The stain it will leave on our nation will last for much longer.
Hundreds of Delawareans joined me and my colleagues in Wilmington this weekend to discuss the challenges we're facing at our town hall. Seeing so many engaged citizens gives me hope and inspires me to work harder every day. Thanks for showing up & speaking out. www.delawareonline.com/story/news/l...
Republicans’ latest plan to cut Medicaid would strip healthcare from 18,500 Delawareans and cost over 15,000 American lives every year. These aren't just statistics—they're our neighbors, friends, and family members. I'll continue fighting these cruel proposals with everything I've got.
One thing I talked with @booker.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social about on the Capitol steps today was Trump's disastrous destruction of foreign aid. Foreign aid accounts for only one percent of our budget, but the consequences of cutting it are much greater than that.
"Thank you for being here, thank you for being engaged and thank you for being hopeful, because frankly, we have a long road ahead of us. The midterms are a long way away. We need to show that we can be purposeful, positive, and make a difference in the months and weeks ahead."
"Right now, President Trump and his administration are on a dangerous trajectory that is hurting our place in the world, taking money away from Delawareans that is legally allocated to be spent here to help us. We will regret the consequences of this administration. We have to try all of the above."
"Newark, Delaware happens to be one of the world's leading centers of hydrogen tech. We have a real opportunity here to grow a business, to produce clean energy and export it to the world. And I'm fighting hard, working with Democrats and Republicans, to prevent the shutdown of our hydrogen."
"You know better than to turn your back on medical research, you know better than to stand with this guy you voted to confirm who's giving away our national secrets. I hector them, and hopefully at some point we will find four that are willing to vote for anything that slows him down."
"I've engaged this week with literally, a dozen Republican senators, including two this morning, about AmeriCorps, who are friends, whom I've worked with, who know better. I reach out to them regularly and say, stand up for the love of God... You know better than to betray Ukraine."
"I'm willing to work across the aisle to do things that are good for our state and our country, but I'm not willing to tolerate things that are illegal, unconstitutional, or slashing vital services like pediatric cancer research or funding for food banks."
Pope Francis' leadership transcended boundaries and reminded us to act only with kindness, patience, and love. I’m inspired to follow his example and remain steadfast in my pursuit of progress. May he rest in peace.
Pope Francis' funeral is set to begin, with tens of thousands of mourners expected to gather in St. Peter’s Square. Follow AP for live updates.
Senseless violence in Kashmir like what what we saw this week brings us no closer to peace and costs parents their children, sons and daughters their fathers and mothers. I utterly condemn this attack, and every victim and their families remain in Annie’s and my prayers.
Trump issued this statement for National Volunteer Week just days after he decimated @americorps.bsky.social. Nothing says “thank you for your service” like firing you while you're working on disaster relief efforts in Pennsylvania. ⁣
