84 years ago this week, Ida May Fuller received the first-ever Social Security check. Today, Washington Republicans want to slash Social Security, taking money from children, veterans, and older retirees. I fight day in and day out to protect your hard earned benefits!

It was a pleasure to meet with a WWII History class at Fremont Ross High School to discuss the importance of honoring the legacy of those who served by telling their story. As the author of legislation that created the WWII Memorial in DC, I know how important these stories are.

We pay solemn tribute to the 3 US soldiers killed and dozens injured today in an attack in Jordan. Their service in defense of Liberty will not be forgotten. The spiderweb of terror across this region funded by Iran and backed by Russia must not be allowed to go unchecked.

Fourteen years ago, SCOTUS opened the floodgates to unlimited political spending in its disastrous Citizens United decision. We must Pass the Freedom to Vote Act to end the dominance of wealthy special interests and say once and for all that our Democracy Is Not For Sale.
