I just reintroduced a bipartisan War Powers Resolution to force a vote to stop any more strikes. I already forced a first vote last month which lost by only 2. If my Republican colleagues grow a spine, it will pass this time.

$40 billion bail out to Argentina, “running” Venezuela, a six figure bribe to everyone in Greenland, giving Qatar an air base in Idaho…
…and he has the audacity to say there’s not enough to pay for healthcare in AMERICA?!
Republicans keep talking about how great Trump’s economy is. Are they living under a rock? Maybe if they actually held town halls & talked to real people, they’d know the only people who think the economy is great are Epstein elites & multi-billionaires. Everyone else thinks his economy sucks.
🚨NEWS: I just voted YES to pass bipartisan legislation that will lower healthcare costs & prevent insurance premiums from skyrocketing.
The Senate must act immediately & advance our bill. The American People have no time to waste.
His boss literally told us numerous times this week that oil is exactly what this is about. We’re not stupid.
This is flagrantly corrupt and illegal. There’s only one reason they would want to funnel dark money from stolen fossil fuel profits into offshore bank accounts. It’s because they’re stealing it.
I’m heartbroken to hear that officer LaPorta was killed in the line of duty yesterday in a terrible car crash. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, his wife, and his young child. We will never forget his selfless service & sacrifice.
Last year, many of my colleagues told me Trump would never strike Venezuela, or they couldn’t support my War Powers Resolution because they feared the president.
Well, Trump did attack Venezuela, so I’m reintroducing my resolution to force a vote before America is dragged into another endless war.
Folks don’t want another costly quagmire that turns into an endless war.
That’s why I’m reintroducing my bipartisan War Powers Resolution to rein in this rogue administration & reassert Congress’ authority on matters of war.
We’re live NOW—tune in: www.youtube.com/live/rf1Gjw8...
As the U.S. withdraws from international institutions, China and Russia aren’t leaving. They’re staying—and shaping the rules without us.
This retreat is a gift to authoritarian powers. America steps back, and they step up. Shameful and bad for America. Bad for human rights and democracy.
You’ve probably heard a lot of lies from this White House about what’s going on in Venezuela.
I’m breaking down the MAGA misinformation 👊
I’ve watched the video multiple times. An American citizen was murdered in cold blood by ICE agents because Donald Trump has empowered them to act with impunity.
This is a nightmare. This crime must immediately be investigated and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Healthcare may not be of “tremendous interest” to billionaires like Trump, but it sure means a lot to folks whose insurance premiums are skyrocketing. That’s why Democrats are forcing a vote on extending your healthcare tax credits. Stay tuned.
Republicans just spent an hour debating shower heads. I’ve held a lot of town halls, and I’ve never had someone tell me that they want the government to do something about that.
Trump is using ICE like a secret police force. They’ve used Gestapo-like tactics to terrorize communities for nearly a year, and now they’re literally killing people. This can’t be America.
I was the first member of Congress to call for abolishing ICE. November’s elections can’t come soon enough.
I said what I said.

Healthcare costs are skyrocketing. Grocery prices are through the roof. The rent is too damn high. And Republicans are starting 2026 with a debate on SHOWER HEADS?!
You can’t make this shit up.
Would be great if someone asked Secretary Rubio if he stands by this statement 5 years later.
