Instead of cutting cancer and Alzheimer’s research by nearly half like Trump wanted—I secured a more than $415 million increase to fund NIH and lifesaving medical research.
I said I would tear up Trump's budget and write a new one and that's exactly what I did.

I don't care if Stephen Miller wants ICE to be able to beat up, shoot, or detain citizens.
In America, we believe in due process. We believe in our Constitution. We believe in law and order—safe streets, law enforcement we can trust.
If you don’t like that? Go to Russia.
Should we be letting any weirdo with an iPhone into our child care centers asking to see proof of kids?
Of course not.
But that is what is happening. And Trump is promoting it!
That's NOT a serious way to uncover fraud in this country, and it's putting our children in harms way.
The SAVE America Act would impose outrageous voter suppression requirements on American citizens.
One example: married women who take their spouse’s name & whose last name may not match their birth certificate. Do they not get to vote?
This bill is DOA in the Senate.
I voted NO on Republicans' plan to extend funding for a rogue Department of Homeland Security.
Democrats are at the table and ready to pass a bill that actually reins in ICE and CBP.
Americans are demanding accountability, and we will settle for nothing less.
Reminder: Republicans blew up our national debt by TRILLIONS so they could give tax breaks to their billionaire buddies and foot working Americans with the bill.
So great to meet Izzy—Washington state's very own Special Olympian!
Always proud of the athletes representing our incredible state and the work of @2026usagames.bsky.social to bring people together and help them get and stay active.
From the Congressional Budget Office: Foreign countries pay 5% of Trump's tariffs — Americans, YOU, pay the other 95%.
These TAXES on working families are driving up prices and making life unaffordable.
Trump tried to imprison Senators for stating the law, saying things he didn't like.
This is a disgusting and corrupt abuse of power—as un-American as it gets.
But guess what? Trump doesn't call all of the shots. And the PEOPLE rejected this sham indictment. Keep speaking out.
If I were the Chair of the Senate HELP Committee, I would have moved to subpoena RFK Jr. a LONG time ago, but the next best time is NOW.
I'm pressing Chair Cassidy on this: what happened to those quarterly oversight hearings? It's well past time for Congress to step in.
RFK Jr. is now blocking an updated flu vaccine for NO reason grounded in science.
American vaccine policy has been hijacked by a conspiracy theorist—yet most Republicans are happy to just sit on their hands.
They are allowing FDA policy to be dictated by DELUSION.
This is what Trump is calling the "Golden Age."
He turns tariffs off and on like a toddler with a light switch and YOU foot the bill.
Hey @mayorofseattle.bsky.social—tens of millions in funding for child care and housing are headed your way!
I said I'd tear up Trump's budget and write a new one, so that's what I did.
The spending bills I negotiated outright REJECT Trump's awful housing & homelessness funding cuts.
Ghislaine Maxwell is not just a convicted child sex trafficker—she is also a serial abuser of many of Epstein's victims.
It's bad enough that Trump moved her to a prison so lax it's called "Club Fed", but ANY kind of pardon needs to be COMPLETELY RULED OUT.

You've got to take the good news when you can get it, and I'm going to be celebrating our Seahawks for a WHILE.
So I just HAD to congratulate our Seahawks on the Senate floor today. Just goes to show you can't spell Washington state without a big W! 💚💙🙌 🙌 🙌💙💚
State of the economy:
📈Sky-high grocery prices
📉Worst January for hiring since 2009
📉The value of the dollar is down 10%
Trump: “I'm very proud of it.”
RFK Jr. has been pushing anti-vax conspiracies for decades, so it's ABSURD to see his colleagues try to pretend that he's actually been pro-vaccines.
And this measles outbreak isn't just on RFK Jr.—it's on everyone who enables his dangerous grift.
Trump & Noem's masked ICE agents aren't going after the worst of the worst—they're randomly targeting innocent people, detaining children, trampling Americans' basic rights, and killing U.S. citizens.
This is not even remotely acceptable. ICE & CBP must be reined in.
1 in 30 NIH clinical trials were disrupted by the Trump administration last year.
Those are real people, who had their hope for a lifesaving cure delayed for absolutely no reason.
I asked NIH's Director what he has to say to those patients.
WATCH ⬇️
LET'S GO HAWKS! 🏆
What a night for Washington state! Our players brought the grit and the 12s—from Spokane to Seattle—brought the heart. Huge congrats to the team, to the coaches, and to the fans.
Extra proud to represent this incredible community today. 💙💚
