Americans want Trump to lead on the economy. Instead, he’s focused on other important issues…like a comedian making jokes at the Grammys, DC’s golf courses, and slapping his name on everything he can. Priorities!

I love hiking the AT, and I'm thrilled to have secured funding to make critical safety improvements for those accessing McAfee Knob in Roanoke County. I visited a couple years ago to learn about the upgrades, and I can't wait to get back to celebrate the funding we secured!
Trump’s economy: Higher costs, fewer jobs, and slower growth.

Trump’s brazen seizure of election records in Fulton County is an alarming and pathetic move to stroke his own ego, rewrite history, and threaten the integrity of future elections.

I’m excited to cheer on Team USA, including Virginians Mystique Ro, Brandon Kim, Ilia Malinin, and Evan Nichols, at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games. Make us proud!
Me preocupa profundamente el trato atroz que ICE da a las personas—especialmente a los niños—y la deshumanización de los inmigrantes por parte del Presidente Trump. Esto tiene que terminar.
Too many Virginians face food insecurity, and the recent SNAP cuts will exacerbate this issue and put more pressure on food banks. I'm proud to have secured federal funding for Feed More and Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore to expand capacity and serve more Virginians.
Veterans deserve world-class cancer care. But arbitrary caps on the pay therapeutic and diagnostic medical physicists receive are making clinical staffing shortages at VA clinics worse—delaying patients’ access to crucial treatment. My bipartisan bill would help fix that:
Trump is doubling down on his threat to usurp the Constitution and state laws and “nationalize” elections. Trump isn’t even trying to hide the fact that he wants to rig future elections.
Trump is cancelling clean energy projects while forcing coal plants to stay open past their retirement dates—increasing energy bills by putting billions in additional repair costs back on customers. Trump owns this energy crisis.
This week, we launched the Federal Workforce Caucus, a bicameral group working to ensure our civil servants have the resources and support they need—especially as the Trump Admin bullies and traumatizes them. Our civil servants deserve respect, and I'm proud to fight for them.
Good news: @markwarner.bsky.social and I secured over $93 million in federal funding to expand access to health care, make critical infrastructure and transportation upgrades, and build affordable housing. I’m excited to get on the road and celebrate these investments in our communities.
Stephen Miller is incapable of following the law or telling the truth—even when there’s video evidence to the contrary. He’s a threat to the country, and even members of his own party find him incompetent. Trump would do himself a favor by ditching him.
My great-grandparents were among the millions of Irish people who immigrated to the U.S. during and after the Irish Potato Famine, seeking a better life and greater opportunity for themselves and their kids. Immigrants today want those same things and shouldn't be demonized for it.
The names of our national sites should honor individuals whom we can all look up to. I introduced legislation to remove Confederate General Robert E. Lee's name from Arlington House and restore its original title.

I’m tired of our incredible immigrant communities being demonized with labels like “illegals.” We don’t use that term to describe any other type of human being, including those convicted of serious crimes.
How can anyone believe Trump’s claims that ICE crackdowns are about crime when ICE is busy detaining preschoolers like Liam? Kids should be in school and safe at home with their families—not in detention centers 1,000 miles from home. It’s cruel.

The right to free speech is a core pillar of a healthy and thriving democracy. Targeting citizens for voicing their disagreements with this Administration’s policies is a totalitarian overreach of power.

Fixed this! Trump’s chaotic tariff “plan” is clear: there is no plan. He’s happy to upend global markets depending on whoever compliments him the most. The economy cannot depend on one man’s ego.
67 years ago today, Lance Newman, Michael Jones, Ronald Deskins, and Gloria Thompson made history in Arlington as the first students to desegregate a Virginia public school. Their courage forged a path for future integration across the Commonwealth.
At 8:45 a.m. on Feb. 2, 1959, four students – Lance Newman, Michael Jones, Ronald Deskins, and Gloria Thompson – entered Arlington's Stratford Junior High School, making them the first to desegregate a Virginia public school. Hear from the history makers: https://bit.ly/4gp4k6j
