Last year, Trump and DOGE slashed the service that detects and responds to Screwworm. Now, these flesh-eating maggots are devastating our cattle, and USDA has no response.
Trump loves to praise our farmers and ranchers, but his promises are often hollow.

Our nation’s military has real needs, from filling munitions backlogs to protecting our troops and bases from modern, lethal, cheap drones. But the administration's supplemental request accomplishes few of those goals. If brought to the floor, my Democratic colleagues and I would oppose it.
The rent is too damn high.
Democrats passed the ROAD to Housing Act passed the Senate because it would help build more homes and lower costs for families. One last-minute decision from Trump should not stop it from becoming law.
Look at the biggest progressive fights in history – abolition to labor rights, civil rights, women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights, and the rights of communities long pushed to the margins – and you'll often find they were not just political movements, but religious movements.
How do you know the Iran negotiations are going poorly? Because JD Vance says one thing, Iranian negotiators say another, and Trump tweets about algae in the reflecting pool.
I’ll never stop fighting for reproductive freedom.
Overturning Roe was never the endgame for Republicans; it was the beginning. 4 years after the Dobbs ruling, abortion, contraception, IVF, and doctor-patient confidentiality are under attack. The government shouldn't tell you what to do with your body or your future.
Delaware’s Blue Hen is part of America’s 250th birthday cake! I was proud to help add our state bird to this bipartisan birthday cake celebrating the people, places, and stories that make up America. Many thanks to America250 and cake artist Grace Pak!
Americans have made clear Congress' top priority is bringing down everyday costs for families. We finally passed a bipartisan bill to bring down housing costs. Now, Trump is throwing a tantrum and saying he won’t sign it.
It’s a slap in the face to every American from Trump and his GOP enablers.
A piece of the First State is headed to America's official 250th birthday cake. I joined Grace Pak, founder of Duchess of Cameron, to help paint Delaware’s Fightin’ Blue Hen, which will represent our state alongside all 50 states and territories as part of the nation’s 250th birthday celebration!
My office is accepting applications for Fall 2026 internships in Washington, D.C., Dover, and Wilmington. It’s a chance to serve Delawareans and learn more about public service.
Apply on my website by June 30th! www.coons.senate.gov/services/res...
This isn’t good governance. It’s Project 2025 in action, and it’s weakening our country by the day.
Science doesn’t care about your feelings or your politics. And yet Trump and his cronies are trying to politicize the scientific grantmaking process that is a pillar of American innovation, industry, and global leadership.
This World Refugee Day is a call to action. Refugees have the right to live free from persecution and violence, and the United States should recommit to providing protection and opportunity to those who have been thoroughly vetted and are in need of refuge.
Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom and a reminder that America's story is one of continually striving to live up to its highest ideals.
Today, we honor the generations of Black Americans whose courage and sacrifice helped move our nation forward.
I never forget my W-2 says legislator. This week, seven of my bipartisan bills advanced in the Senate, one step closer to becoming law.
President Trump promised this war would be short and the economy would bounce back quickly.
Three months later, gas is still over $4 a gallon, groceries are still rising, and families are still paying the price.
A deal is welcome. Accountability for how we got here is still required.
HUGE news: my bill with Senator Blackburn to protect Americans from AI deepfakes, the NO FAKES Act, just passed unanimously out of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
One step closer to becoming law and protecting the voice and likeness of all Americans. Let’s get this done.
President Trump started a reckless war in Iran that cost billions, drove up prices, and left American service members dead and wounded. Ending it is necessary, but what we’re left with looks by all accounts to be a bad deal. That's why Congress and the American people need to see the text now.
