My statement with @markwarner.bsky.social on Senate Republicans’ budget resolution that will slash programs that Virginians rely on in order to pay for tax cuts for billionaires:
"The Trump Administration has thrown our
economy into needless chaos by enacting universal tariffs that will raise costs. Now, despite our strong opposition, Republicans in Congress have moved forward with an enormous tax bill that will cut programs Virginians rely on, give massive tax breaks to billionaires, and raise the deficit by unprecedented levels. We should be focused on lowering the costs of child care and housing, cutting taxes for middle class Americans, and continuing to build on our progress to boost domestic manufacturing.
President Trump and Republicans' budget and economic policies will be a disaster for our country, and we urge them to reverse course before they do more harm."
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, a reminder of the need to support prevention measures and survivors. I'll keep working to pass my SOS Campus Act, which would help do that on college campuses. If you are a survivor, VA’s Sexual Assault Hotline is available 24/7 at 1-800-838-8238.
Happy 76th anniversary, NATO! Now more than ever, we must link arms with our allies on both sides of the Atlantic and reaffirm our commitment to global security. I’m proud my law passed to prevent any U.S. president from unilaterally withdrawing from NATO.
I am so touched by the thousands of Americans who have reached out to my office thanking me for standing up to Trump and his tariffs—and winning. I want to thank all of YOU for your continued advocacy to make that win possible. Together, we are strong.
Don't be fooled. Trump's "Liberation Day" is a disaster in the making for middle-class Americans.

Trump's tsunami of tariffs will make groceries and other everyday items more expensive, costing families an extra $6,000 a year.

That's the last thing Americans need right now.
Proud of Cory for holding the floor for 23 hours and counting calling out Trump’s destabilizing policies, including his reckless new taxes. I was glad to join Cory on the floor and look forward to forcing a vote tomorrow on my legislation to challenge Trump’s trade war with Canada.
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:
When I was a fair housing lawyer, I saw how affordable housing access influenced families' ability to achieve stability. This National Fair Housing Month—and always—I’m committed to tackling housing shortages and high prices and working to protect our most vulnerable from housing discrimination.
Good news: with $25 million in federal funding I helped secure, we broke ground today on a new Virginia National Guard Army Aviation Support Facility in Sandston. This new facility will help prepare our Guardsmen for their many missions at home and abroad.

On Transgender Day of Visibility and every day, my message to trans Virginians and people around the world: I’m glad you’re here. You deserve to feel safe and celebrated, and I’m going to keep standing up for you.
I visited Reservoir Distillery in Richmond to learn more about how Trump’s tariffs hurt Virginia businesses. So this week, I’m forcing a vote to undo Trump’s proposed sales tax on Canadian goods.
Senator Kaine poses for a photos with five others at the distillery.

Wishing Eid Mubarak to Muslim communities in the Commonwealth and around the world. As families and communities gather, I hope this season brings peace, light, and unity.
I’m proud of the brave educators and parents fighting for the Department of Education and for our students and teachers who depend on ED’s resources and protections. Education is critical to our economy, and I stand with all fighting to protect it. www.highereddive.com/news/aaup-af...
