The Trump Administration is announcing massive cuts to the Social Security Administration — while Elon Musk is calling Social Security a "Ponzi scheme."
Let's be clear: Social Security is essential for Americans — and Senate Democrats are fighting to protect it.
Watch now:
I joined Wolf Blitzer to discuss the rising costs and chaos Americans are facing. President Trump said he’d lower costs on “Day One” yet costs are still going up.
Watch:
I met with the Minnesota Council on Foundations to discuss charitable giving, the nonprofit sector, and efforts to pass the Charitable Act.
Minnesotans have always stepped up to help our neighbors — and we must support that tradition.
President Zelenskyy and the Ukrainian people have been extremely thankful for the help of the United States. For us to turn our backs now is an affront to our shared values.
To let Putin march through Ukraine, and to approach these negotiations with surrender instead of strength, is a huge mistake. Do we stand with Ukraine and our Allies or do we stand with Russia, North Korea and Iran? Berating an ally for standing up for his country is just wrong.
Attacks on the Department of Health and Human Services put Americans’ lives and livelihoods at risk. As we mark Rare Disease Day today, we must fight to lower the cost of healthcare for Americans, not threaten health care with mass layoffs of critical health care staff.
Answer to Vance: Zelenskyy has thanked our country over and over again both privately and publicly.
And our country thanks HIM and the Ukrainian patriots who have stood up to a dictator, buried their own & stopped Putin from marching right into the rest of Europe. Shame on you.
So honored to take part in the hour-long discussion with President Zelensky and Senators Coons, Graham, and other Democratic and Republican Senators this morning. There is strong bipartisan support in the Senate for Ukraine's freedom and democracy.
History in the making. It is great to work alongside @alsobrooks.senate.gov and @bluntrochester.senate.gov – this is a must-read!

Senate Republicans are trying to hide the true cost of their billionaire tax giveaways.
That’s right.
They know how unpopular their billionaire tax cuts are.
They know they’ll add FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS to the debt, raising costs for YOU.
Democrats are going to expose them.
It’s not cute to accidentally cancel Ebola prevention — a virus with a 50% fatality rate.
It’s even less acceptable when it turns out you didn’t “restore” the prevention for Ebola like you claimed.
My Republican colleagues must look at what is right in front of them – from nominees who won’t follow court orders to the firing of dedicated FBI agents.
They need to act, not continue to acquiesce to the President.
@slotkin.senate.gov knows Americans want to see costs come down — not more chaos and corruption. She also knows firsthand the importance of our leadership on the world stage.
There’s going to be a lot to respond to on Tuesday…
She’s going to do a great job!
I joined the Arctic Caucus to meet with Norway’s Ambassador Anniken Huitfeldt and Members of the Norwegian Parliament before their visit to Minnesota yesterday.
Minnesota's National Guard has a longstanding partnership with Norway – and I look forward to continuing our work together!
We need to crack down on the sale of fentanyl through social media and make sure law enforcement has the resources they need to detect fentanyl at our borders — and in the mail.
I asked about this at our Commerce Committee Hearing yesterday.
Watch now:
Within just 90 minutes yesterday, three different federal judges rejected the Trump Administration in court.
The rule of law must prevail — and we will keep standing up for the American people.
American steelworkers — and all American workers — deserve to compete on a level playing field with countries like China. I joined Senator Todd Young and @smith.senate.gov to introduce a bipartisan bill that will help stop steel dumping and foreign subsidies that undermine American steel.
Thank you to everyone who joined us this morning at the Rare Disease Breakfast to mark Rare Disease Week.
More than 30 million people in the U.S. are living with a rare disease — and we must ensure they have the resources, care, and treatment they need.
Our farmers need certainty, not chaos.
I stopped by the Minnesota Farmers Union to meet with farmers and speak with Vice President Anne Schwagerl about how the Administration’s actions are impacting Minnesotans.
