Americans are already feeling squeezed by high costs—and Trump’s tariff taxes are just making it worse.
Prices are rising at the grocery store, when shopping for clothing, and for appliances and furniture.
We should be lowering costs, not raising them with reckless policies.

Trump promised to lower costs “on Day One.” Well, more than 270 days in, inflation is rising.
Prices are up for groceries, electricity, rent and more—with health care premiums set to double for millions of Americans if the President and Congressional Republicans refuse to act.
As a co-chair of the Congressional Rare Diseases Caucus, I'm proud to work across the aisle and fight to improve the lives of the 30 million Americans with rare diseases. Groups like @RareDiseases ensure patients and their loved ones have access to support, care, and treatment.

We're facing a historic rise in premiums on the ACA Marketplace because Republicans in Congress refuse to work with Democrats to extend enhanced premium tax credits that make health insurance more affordable.
The stakes are simply too high. We must get this done.
Millions of hardworking Americans—including many in red states—are staring down a health care cliff.
The President must work with us to prevent premiums from skyrocketing and to protect families’ access to care.
President Trump has taken a wrecking ball to our democracy while refusing to do anything to end the shutdown and stop millions of Americans’ health care premiums from doubling.
23 years ago, we lost Paul and Sheila Wellstone, their daughter Marcia, and beloved staff members Mary, Tom, and Will.
As Paul said, “We all do better when we all do better.” We carry that spirit with us as we continue fighting for justice, compassion, and opportunity for all.
Choosing not to feed Americans in need is unacceptable.
The Administration knows it can use emergency funds for SNAP payments—it even deleted the memo posted on its website saying it could.
They are choosing to inflict pain on families.

Welcome home, Sophia. After nearly two months in the hospital, we all rejoice that she’s home and reunited with her Annunciation classmates.

The President claims American cattle ranchers "don't understand" their own industry and wants to import more beef from Argentina, a major competitor.
Trump needs to stop undercutting our farmers and ranchers to prop up his political ally in Argentina.

If Republicans get their way and let ACA tax credits expire, 339,000 Americans will lose their jobs next year.
Almost half of them will be doctors, nurses and caregivers.
They call it policy. We call it cruelty.
Last November, these states voted for Trump because he promised to lower costs on Day 1.
Now, insurance premiums are set to double because he won't extend the health care tax credits.
Americans across the country want to lower costs, not raise them.
Live reactions to the demolition of the East Wing with my friend @warren.senate.gov
Happy birthday to my husband and great dad, John! Many memorable times this year, including the State Fair and the giant inflatable Vikings player that suddenly deflated before our eyes. Hope you have a great day that ends with a Vikings win tonight!
President Trump needs to come to the table and negotiate an end to this shutdown before millions of Americans see their health insurance premiums double.
Trump is weaponizing the Justice Department to give himself millions in taxpayer dollars, attack his political enemies, and protect who he considers his friends.
This is a threat to the justice system and the rule of law.
I stood on the Senate floor with my friend @merkley.senate.gov who has been speaking through the night against authoritarianism & corruption.
As the President turns the Justice Department into his personal law firm, he’s doing nothing to prevent health care premiums from doubling.
Trump is treating the Justice Department as his own personal law firm.
I took to the Senate floor with @merkley.senate.gov to speak out against this authoritarianism and corruption.
As Ag Committee Ranking Member, I'm proud to work with @smith.senate.gov to advance our bill to ensure Thye-Blatnik payments continue to benefit Minnesotans.
These payments support law enforcement, infrastructure, and search-and-rescue within the Boundary Waters.
