Senate Democrats stand with the Capitol Police officers who put themselves in harm's way to protect us during the insurrection. By blocking our very simple resolution today, Senate Republicans made clear they do not.
Trump's pardons for violent, convicted insurrectionists is not only a betrayal of the law enforcement that protected all of us that day, but a dangerous endorsement of political violence—telling criminals that you can beat cops as long as it’s in service to Donald Trump.
BREAKING: Senate Republicans just blocked my resolution that simply condemns pardons for dangerous criminals convicted of attacking Capitol Police officers. It's outrageous that we can’t all agree to stand with the people who kept us safe, over violent insurrectionists.
Trump denied knowing about Project 2025, but his move to illegally block federal funding comes right from it. Russ Vought, lead author of Project 2025 and OMB nominee, wouldn't answer my question on if he would follow the law. Republicans shouldn't advance his nomination.
I voted NO to confirm Sean Duffy as Secretary of Transportation to register my firm opposition to a lawless administration that is right now illegally ripping away funding that communities and families across America are counting on.
Given the Trump admin's freeze of federal funding, Senate Budget Committee Chair Lindsey Graham should hold Russ Vought’s nomination to oversee our nation's budget. Republicans should not advance this nomination out of committee until the Trump administration follows the law.
The scope of Trump's illegal move to freeze federal funding is unprecedented and could have devastating consequences across the country for real people. It is a massive overreach and he must reverse course immediately and follow the requirements of the law.
In a brazen & illegal move, the Trump admin is working to freeze federal funding passed into law. The law is the law—Trump must immediately reverse course, follow the requirements of the law, & ensure the nation’s spending laws are implemented as Congress intended.
For far too long, D.C. residents have been denied full representation in Congress and the right to fully participate in our democracy. I joined legislation to change that by finally making DC a state and giving its nearly 700,000 residents a real voice in Congress.
Shalanda has helped steer our country through bruising budget negotiations & tough fiscal challenges. She's been an invaluable partner & our country is better off thanks to her leadership, mastery of budget policy, & her tirelessness in helping working families get ahead. apnews.com/article/shal...
After hundreds of people were hospitalized and at least 83 dead from a measles outbreak in Samoa, RFK Jr. doubled down on spreading dangerous disinformation & STILL promotes conspiracies about the lives lost. He shouldn’t be anywhere near our nation’s public health system.
WATCH: Senators Baldwin, Smith, & I on how despite Trump and Republicans' repeated promises to leave the matter of abortion up to the states, one of the very first things they did was try to pass a national anti-abortion law.
Today we honor the memory of the 6 million Jews and millions of others murdered by Nazis in the Holocaust. We must stand united against the antisemitism and prejudice that fueled those atrocities and reject any attempts to rewrite that dark and shameful chapter of history.
It shouldn't be too much to ask for senators to oppose unconditional pardons for people found guilty of assaulting Capitol Police officers. I'm introducing a simple, one-line resolution condemning these pardons & will try to pass it on the Senate floor this week.
Republicans ran on working to lower costs for families—but their first weeks in power have shown they couldn’t care less about any of that. Instead they spent more time attacking women & lying about abortion. This is not what the American people want or were promised.
Trump and Republicans are STILL hell-bent on rolling back the Affordable Care Act. This time, they're proposing cutting tax credits and other programs that help millions of patients afford health care so they can pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
