Clayton defended Trump’s anti-weaponization slush fund and echoed false attacks on the integrity of our elections. Trump didn’t pick him to serve America’s intelligence community, but to weaponize it against Trump's political enemies and help steal the election. I'm voting no.
Trump promised he would end wars. Instead, he launched two reckless wars against Iran and continues to threaten more—putting people at risk and telling us he “doesn’t care” about rising oil and gas costs. In case Trump hasn’t noticed, his madman theory of diplomacy is not working.
Trump threatens to take ‘total control’ of Iran’s oil industry as ceasefire teeters
It has been 63 years since the landmark Equal Pay Act was signed into law, prohibiting sex-based wage discrimination. Today we celebrate the law’s legacy, while still fighting to advance true fairness for all workers.
Trump warned Iran that it would “pay the price” for the war that he started, but who is really paying the price? American families. 100 days of war, $100 billion bill for taxpayers, 100% failure in Iran. End it now.
Trump vows to attack Iran again today
The two sides have exchanged strikes following the downing of a US helicopter, testing efforts to end the war.

Farmers are on the frontlines of the climate crisis and need targeted land management tools to fight back. My bipartisan Natural Climate Solutions Research and Extension Act would help farmers get the resources they need to build resilience to extreme weather and lower emissions.
Boston’s fare free buses have boosted ridership and saved riders’ money. Boston’s success shows it’s time to pass my Freedom to Move Act with @RepPressley so any community can reap the benefits of fare free transit.
Three MBTA bus routes to remain free through end of year
By Niki Griswold and Chris Van Buskirk Globe Staff,Updated June 9, 2026, 4:42 p.m.
My AI Environmental Impacts Act would require data centers to report on air quality, water use, noise pollution, light pollution, land use, and energy use. Communities are already feeling these impacts. We need more, but the least our government can do is give us the truth.
Billionaires have benefited for decades because the tax code rewards wealth over work. My Equal Tax Act makes the wealthy pay tax on investments the same way working people pay tax on their paycheck. It’s basic fairness.
Billionaires’ Billions Are Increasing Faster Than Ever
Elon Musk’s potential new status as a trillionaire demonstrates in real time why there has been such a rapid rise in the concentration of wealth at the top.
Trump is not a deal maker, he is a deal breaker. In 2015, we passed a good deal with Iran that stopped a bomb, but Trump tore it up to create a crisis. Then Iran enriched, and Trump attacked. 100 days of war, $100 billion bill for taxpayers, 100% failure. Totally avoidable.
U.S. and Iran Zero In on Four Nuclear Issues in Talks
With the cease-fire proving tenuous, negotiations between the two nations are in flux, but have advanced to outline potential paths forward on difficult questions about Iran’s nuclear program.
Trump’s @sba-gov.bsky.social is slashing funding by 67% and eliminating essential entrepreneurial development programs that help nearly 1 million small businesses. I’m calling on Administrator Loeffler to explain why the Trump administration is choosing to turn Main Street into Pain Street
