Promoting disability rights can significantly boost global security and prosperity. I’m proud to introduce legislation to enhance U.S. engagement on disability rights around the world and ensure State Department staff with disabilities have access to equal opportunities.

Lo que Trump prometió: acabar con las guerras interminables y reducir los costos.
Lo que Trump realmente está haciendo: iniciar guerras en el extranjero que aumentan los costos.
Esta es una presidencia de promesas incumplidas.

I was with veterans in the Capitol today to amplify their concerns about Trump’s unnecessary war with Iran. Rather than listen and vote to end it, too many senators chose to bow to a President who has called our fallen heroes ‘suckers’ and ‘losers.’ This isn't over.
America’s veterans understand the cost of war. I’m glad I got to talk to veterans today about how Trump dragging us into another prolonged conflict in the Middle East with no clear goals, strategy, or end state is so harmful.
4 years ago, my Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act became law to support the mental health of our healers. I was honored to work with the family of Dr. Breen, an MD from VA who died by suicide while serving on the COVID frontlines, to name the law after her.
Our servicemembers’ service and sacrifice can take a toll on their mental health. The least we can do is ensure they receive the mental health care benefits they are promised as veterans. The significant staff losses under Trump are unacceptable and must be rectified.
What Trump said he’d do: end forever wars and lower costs.
What Trump is actually doing: starting overseas wars that raise costs.
This is a presidency of broken promises.

Trump is already waging a deeply unpopular war against Iran. Now, Trump says he thinks he can have “the honor of taking Cuba.” We need to focus on helping Americans and lowering costs, not inciting a new global conflict every month.
Trump was completely unprepared for the war against Iran that HE started. Six months ago, the Trump Administration DOGE’d its global oil and gas price experts—the people who would be helping address the oil shortage that’s causing surges in gas prices.
Six months before the Trump administration started bombing Iran, the Department of State fired its oil and gas experts.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! My family immigrated to the United States from Ireland in the 1840s and 50s, and I’m proud to celebrate my Irish heritage today! Wishing everyone a safe and festive holiday!
Trump’s talk about gas prices lowering soon is proving to be just that—talk. Back in reality, working families are struggling with unaffordable costs because of his war of choice.

It's Long COVID Awareness Day. Americans are still grappling with COVID’s repercussions, including Long COVID. I'll keep working to support research and education on this condition and other infection-associated chronic conditions.
The attack on an elementary school in Iran is a horrific tragedy. It also raises serious concerns about the safety of wrongfully detained Americans in Iran. I pray that they won't be impacted by the ongoing violence, and that they will soon safely be brought home.
This is tragic news. The loved ones of the six servicemembers who died in Iraq are in my thoughts. I will closely track the findings of the ongoing investigation into this crash.

I'm praying for the victims of the shooting at Old Dominion University today, and deeply appreciate the work of our law enforcement officers. I will continue to monitor this closely and encourage all to heed officials' instructions about avoiding the area around Constant Hall.
The Senate passed my legislation challenging Trump’s broad-based tariffs. SCOTUS struck down his tariffs because they were illegal. But he can’t take the hint. He’s trying a new tactic to impose taxes and raise costs. @warnock.senate.gov and I have a bill to stop him.

Trump referring to the war against Iran as an “excursion” is beyond disrespectful to the families of the servicemembers killed in the Middle East and all our troops currently risking their lives. It makes my skin crawl.
The war against Iran is extremely unpopular. Both Trump and my colleagues in Congress should listen to their constituents: Americans don’t want this.
Thousands of servicemembers killed. Thousands more injured. Hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians killed. Trillions spent. That’s what 25+ years of war in the Middle East got us. My colleagues and I are doing all we can to stop the US from repeating these mistakes. youtube.com/shorts/Jnu8d...
Americans want lower costs and no new wars. Instead, Trump is driving up costs—for things like airfare to visit loved ones or take a needed vacation—through his new, illegal war against Iran.
