ICE and CBP already have enough money for the next three years. They don't need another $62 billion. So Democrats are forcing a vote on a legislation to reinvest that money in building over 2 million units of affordable housing.
The Senate just started a “vote-a-rama”—meaning Senate Democrats will offer a long series of amendments to Republicans’ budget bill that would once again massively increase ICE and CBP spending without reforms we need to keep Americans safe.
Over the past four years, the Ukrainian people have fought heroically to defend their home against Russia’s unprovoked invasion. Now, Trump is letting Putin rake in billions of dollars to fuel his war of conquest. Here’s how:

During PTSD Awareness Month and every month, I'm committed to making sure that those with post-traumatic stress have access to quality mental health care, including in the servicemember and veteran communities. If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available 24/7.
It's Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month and I'm remembering my sister-in-law Tayloe who passed last year after a 15-year Alzheimer's battle. I'm grateful that my bill to improve Alzheimer's prevention, treatment, and care is now law and will keep working to fight this disease.
Happy Pride Month, Virginia! This month, we celebrate and honor the LGBTQ+ community while continuing to push for safe, inclusive communities for all. No one deserves to be discriminated against because of who they are or who they love.

Military spouses’ access to jobs is critical to the prosperity of our military families and the strength of our national security. Great piece about this topic and the importance of passing my Military Spouse Hiring Act. Give it a read: www.dailypress.com/2026/05/25/e...
The Ebola outbreak in the DRC shows why President Trump’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization and humanitarian aid cuts are a big mistake. Infectious diseases don't know borders, and the Trump-Vance Admin’s chaotic and anti-science health policies make us all less safe.
6 years ago today, George Floyd was murdered—shining a floodlight on the work that remains ahead to stamp out racism and law enforcement misconduct. I remain committed to pushing for legislation to address those challenges and make America safer for everyone.
On this Memorial Day, we remember the courage of all servicemembers who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. Today, let’s continue to honor them by supporting all servicemembers, veterans, military families, and their loved ones.

Great to join @microntech.bsky.social in Manassas to celebrate the manufacturing of a new memory chip! I’m proud of what we’ve done through the CHIPS Act to expand chips manufacturing. I’ll keep working to strengthen this supply chain, protect our national security, and grow our economy.

Happy 102nd Birthday to the U.S. Foreign Service! Today, we celebrate the Foreign Service Officers who strengthen America’s partnerships and advance security worldwide. I will continue to stand with them against dangerous cuts and firings that make the United States less safe.
Yesterday I joined veterans and @duckworth.senate.gov, @kim.senate.gov, and @gallego.senate.gov to highlight the many ways the Trump-Vance Administration's reckless Iran war is hurting our servicemembers and veteran communities. Congress owes it to them to stop the war.

Great to join FIGS and so many health care heroes this morning. I'm grateful for their support to help us reauthorize the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act. I'll keep working to fully fund mental health programs for our dedicated health care workers.

We all benefit from great teachers, firefighters, nonprofit hospital staff, and other public servants. But now the Trump-Vance Administration wants to gut a critical program enacted by Congress to encourage folks to get trained for these jobs. Here’s what I’m doing about it:
