Thousands of brave American women have made countless sacrifices to keep us safe and defend our democracy. A review of women’s military “effectiveness” undertaken by Anthony Tata and Pete Hegseth can’t be credible given their own troubled personal histories.

All legally-cast ballots must be counted. @markwarner.bsky.social and I are urging SCOTUS to protect vote-by-mail in an upcoming case that could lead to the disenfranchisement of millions of rural, military, and overseas voters.
Coming to you soon: my interview with Jake Sherman and Anna Palmer on my Venezuela war powers resolution, Greenland, and so much more. Tune in!
Access to critical minerals is crucial to our national security, economy, and ability to compete with China. That’s why this week, I introduced bipartisan legislation to grow and strengthen the critical minerals workforce we need to get ahead.
Once again, Senate Republicans blocked legislation to extend ACA tax credits that keep health care coverage affordable.
Republicans should listen to their constituents and join Democrats in voting to protect millions of Americans’ health care.
My statement slamming Republicans’ procedural motion to sidestep my War Powers Resolution to block the use of the U.S. Armed Forces to engage in hostilities within or against Venezuela unless authorized by Congress:
An update on Trump’s effort today to block a public debate in front of the American people on his war in Venezuela.

We pledge an oath to a Constitution that says war can't be initiated without a vote of Congress. How can we allow this President—or any President—to single-handedly make decisions about deploying our military against other nations? It's reckless.
Americans want a president focused on bringing down energy, health care, and grocery costs, and who gets matters right at home. How can Trump run the Venezuelan economy when he can't even manage our own?
Americans are struggling with the high cost of groceries, housing, child care, and everything in between. Meanwhile, instead of focusing on fulfilling his promises to bolster the economy and bring prices down, Trump is more interested in waging illegal wars around the world.
It’s Korean American Day! Today, we celebrate the contributions, history, and achievements of Korean Americans. I’m proud that my bipartisan bill to help reunite Korean American families separated by the Korean War is now law. I’ll keep supporting VA’s Korean American community.
My statement on the Trump Justice Department’s attempt to bully the Federal Reserve:
The Roadless Rule has been an amazing success story—protecting 45 million acres of national lands nationwide, including 400,000 acres in Virginia. I will keep pushing for legislation to codify the rule and safeguard other wilderness areas in the Commonwealth.
“Acting President of Venezuela?” How about addressing the needs of everyday Americans instead? So far, Trump has brought slower growth, higher costs, and fewer jobs.

As we prepare to celebrate Religious Freedom Day later this week, here is a painful reminder of how far we have to go. Let’s stand with our Jewish friends and all in our nation who are targeted for their religious beliefs.

Vaccines have saved countless lives from preventable diseases. Fanning the flames of vaccine conspiracy theories and recklessly changing vaccine guidance threatens the health and safety of millions of children.

Trump’s recent actions—illegal military strikes, chaotic tariffs, disrespectful rhetoric— weaken relations with key allies and drive our neighbors further into the arms of our adversaries like China and put Americans’ economic and national security at risk.

My bipartisan War Powers Resolution has advanced in the Senate—meaning America will finally see a public debate on whether we should be engaging in a war in Venezuela. Next week, every senator will go on the record about whether our sons and daughters should be sent to war.
My statement on the Senate advancing my bipartisan War Powers Resolution to block an illegal war in Venezuela:
I’m aware of the heartbreaking news out of Minneapolis and am monitoring the situation for additional updates. My prayers are with all impacted today.
