When Trump meets with Xi, we can’t afford for him to sacrifice America’s national security in exchange for “solutions” to Trump's self-created crises. That’s why I led 16 bipartisan senators this month on a resolution as a reminder about the threat China poses to our security and prosperity.
Roman Mongold survived 177 days trapped in Vovchansk’s kill zone, kept alive by weekly voice notes from his wife. We cannot look away from what Ukrainians are enduring, and we cannot abandon them in their fight for democracy.
While Roman Mongold, a Ukrainian soldier, was pinned down surrounded by the enemy for nearly six months, he traded voice memos with his wife with a commander’s help.
When Trump meets with Xi, we can’t afford for him to give up real concessions in exchange for “solutions” to Trump's self-created crises. That’s why I led 16 bipartisan senators this month in introducing a resolution to remind people of the threat China poses to our security and prosperity.
Happy Mother’s Day! I’m grateful for my mother, Sally, and everything she did for my brothers and me, and for our whole family. And to Annie, thank you for the compassion, strength, and love you bring to our family every day. Our children and I are blessed by you.
Delaware gas prices are now $4.35 a gallon. That's a 50% increase since the start of Trump's war with Iran – the war Senate Republicans have voted six times to continue. End the war and bring costs down.
Delawareans shouldn’t have to wait hours in an ER to get care. That’s why I hosted a roundtable with health care leaders to discuss what’s driving these delays and how we can expand emergency rooms, strengthen our workforce, and invest in community care.
I’m glad access to Mifepristone has been temporarily restored, but temporary is not enough. Reproductive freedom can't depend on shifting court rulings or state-by-state restrictions.
If you have your health, you have everything. If you don’t, nothing else matters. I’m grateful to the Delaware health care leaders who joined my roundtable to discuss how we can reduce ER wait times and ensure Delawareans have access to timely, affordable, quality care.
When I talk to Delawareans about the war in Iran, all I hear is alarm about spiking gas prices, concern about our lack of strategy, and confusion about one more of Trump’s broken promises.
Ahead of Trump's summit with Xi this month, I'm proud to lead Democrats and Republicans in sending a clear, unified message: The Chinese government is our adversary. Don't sell our country out at the negotiating table.
A bipartisan group of 16 senators is urging Congress to take a tough stance on China policy ahead of this month’s summit between President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. https://www.notus.org/bipartisan-senators-push-china-stance-trump-xi-summit
The longest shutdown ever—TSA agents unpaid, our cybersecurity weakened—started when Senate GOP wouldn’t agree to commonsense ICE reforms, and extended because @houserepublicans.bsky.social delayed for weeks instead of taking up a bill we passed unanimously. Trump’s party simply isn’t fit to govern.
Breaking news: The House ended the bulk of the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, approving a bipartisan bill to fund most of the Department of Homeland Security after weeks of delay and with little fanfare.
The 22nd Amendment to the Constitution is clear: Trump cannot be elected president more than twice. Yesterday, I asked Trump judicial nominees what the 22nd Amendment entails. Their response? Crickets.
