Our faith traditions teach us to welcome the stranger, love our neighbor, and uphold human dignity. Instead of spending billions more on unaccountable ICE agents, we should be focus on the least of these: Americans struggling to put food on the table or keep roofs over their heads.
AI-generated deepfakes are already being used to scam, exploit, impersonate, and profit off people without their consent. That’s why I reintroduced the NO FAKES Act to create clear protections so Americans can control how their voice and likeness are used in the age of AI.
In three months alone, President Trump made thousands of stock trades worth hundreds of millions of dollars – often in companies he’d praise the very same day. This is brazen corruption.
Republicans slashed health care tax credits to fund tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy – and now your deductible is climbing by as much as $1,000 as a result. What did they think would happen?
Every other president in modern history has released their tax returns. Not only has Trump failed to do so, now he has a license from his own administration not to have his taxes checked – a license to cheat and rip off the government.
It took two and a half months, tens of billions of dollars, 13 dead American servicemembers, 8 votes, and skyrocketing gas prices before enough Republican Senators stood up and said no to Trump’s disastrous war of choice in Iran.   Finally.
BREAKING: The Senate advances a bill aimed at ending the Iran war after GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy, defeated in primary, switches to support it.
Some facts: The reflecting pool was supposed to cost $2 million and be done last week. Now it'll be done last week and costs seven times as much. "Ahead of schedule" is about as real as his promise to bring down costs on day 1 or his concepts of a plan to improve your health care.
What happened at the Islamic Center of San Diego today is devastating. I’m praying for the victims & their loved ones. This is horrifying, & it didn't happen in a vacuum. Muslim communities in this nation have been demonized & treated as inherently suspect by those willing to fuel fear for power.
Let’s call this what it is: a billion dollar slush fund for Trump to reward felons, insurrectionists, and cronies, paid for by YOUR taxpayer dollars. It’s bad enough that this DOJ already believes it works for Donald Trump. Now, it’s giving him its budget to use as his personal piggy bank.
DOJ announces creation of a $1.776 billion fund to compensate Trump's allies who claim they were unfairly targeted by Biden administration https://cnn.it/4tFCkla
I hope every student who joined us at this morning’s Delaware Youth Conference leaves recognizing something important: in this country, elected officials work for you. You get to ask us the questions, and we owe you answers.
Speaking today with some of Delaware’s best and brightest students about what’s at stake for their education and their futures. While Republicans cut funding for education, nutrition, and health care, I’ll keep fighting for strong investments to ensure every student has the opportunity to succeed.
The Trump Economy is not working for American families. Plain and simple. Rent is too high, groceries cost too much, and health care is too expensive. He needs to be working to lower costs, but instead, he's focused on anything but that.
U.S. arms sales to Taiwan aren't negotiating chips – they're required by law under the Taiwan Relations Act. More than that, they're central to a free and open Indo-Pacific, and our own national and economic security.
We've known for decades that mifepristone is safe, effective, and essential. So why are patients and providers still at the mercy of whoever happens to be on the bench? This SCOTUS ruling is only temporary. We need full, lasting access to medication abortion.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court preserves access to widely used abortion pill, mifepristone, while a lawsuit plays out.
That includes my bipartisan Recruit and Retain Act, now law, which helps police departments hire and retain qualified officers so they can better protect and serve our communities.
