The so-called ‘restructuring’ of HHS is making things worse. This nonsense is not making us stronger or healthier, it’s making us sicker.
Big win for law enforcement and public safety – the Supreme Court upheld a rule to stop the proliferation of ghost guns that can be bought and assembled at home without a background check.
I’m proud to introduce bipartisan legislation today to make pecans, pistachios, and other tree nuts eligible for USDA’s Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program.
This will expand access to nutritious foods and support local farmers.
Mr. Bisignano doesn't know New Mexico and he doesn't understand the lengths some New Mexicans have to travel for help with Social Security. He wouldn't commit to not closing the few rural Social Security field offices we do have. Unacceptable.
White women earn 73¢ for every $1 paid to men.
Black women: 64¢
Latina women: 51¢
Indigenous women: 52¢
Asian American, Native Hawaiian & Pacific Islander women: as little as 48¢
It’s 2025. This is unacceptable. #EqualPayNow
It doesn't matter what your position is; anyone who mishandles or discloses classified information should face a criminal investigation - full stop.
As Hegseth once said: “If at the very top there's no accountability," then we have "two tiers of justice."
Yesterday, we celebrated the anniversary of the Affordable Care Act and the millions of lives it has saved. One of the proudest moments in my career was voting to enact the ACA. Republicans trying to rip health coverage away from 45 million people is shameful and must be stopped.
Come intern with us in D.C.!

A non-partisan organization found that a new round of the Trump Tax Scam for the wealthy will increase the primary deficit by $4 trillion.
Billionaires love to see it.
Hardworking, blue-collar families can’t afford it.
The Secretary of Defense and some of the Trump administration's highest-ranking officials recklessly shared highly sensitive military plans in a Signal group chat.
The Trump administration must provide the American people with clear answers regarding how this security breach occurred.
After 2 years of fighting for the Chimayó Post Office to be rebuilt following the fire, a new location has finally been announced. The post office is a vital part of the community, and its absence has been deeply felt. I will continue pushing for the post office to be rebuilt as quickly as possible.
Today, thousands of military personnel, veterans and civilians gather at White Sands for the Bataan Memorial Death March to honor the brave soldiers who endured unimaginable hardship. This annual trek is a powerful tribute to ensure their sacrifice is never forgotten.
My prayers are with the Las Cruces community in the aftermath of last night’s shooting. I’m thankful for the law enforcement and first responders for their swift action. My office will be following this investigation closely.
I’m proud to join Senator Padilla in calling on Attorney General Pam Bondi to keep the task force that helps protect election officials from threats and violence.
President Trump and Elon Musk are hurting New Mexico farmers and ranchers.
Learn more about the impact on farmers and how I’m fighting back:
Projects like these don’t happen without workers making them happen, and workers don’t work without projects like these. Big thank you to the workers who made this possible.
This is illegal.
President Trump is making it easier for Elon Musk and his billionaire friends to exploit consumers and small businesses by firing those who protect Americans from unfair and deceptive practices.
He is willing to break the law to get rid of anyone who stands in his way.
The bird flu is devastating our farms and driving up prices at the grocery store. Secretary Kennedy’s solution? Let it spread.
This is a recipe for disaster.
Americans pay into Social Security for their entire working lives. Now, President Trump and Elon Musk are making it harder for our seniors to receive their hard-earned benefits. This is just not right.
