Last year, I said I’d rip up Trump’s budget and make sure Congress wrote a new one—we did and I’ll make sure we do it again. The American people want their tax dollars going toward investments that help everyone and make life more affordable—basics like utilities & child care.
Prices are surging and it's thanks to two main things:

1. Trump starting a costly foreign war that no one asked for.   2. Trump's arbitrary & corrupt tariffs.

He promised to lower inflation, to lower prices—he not only broke those promises, he's actively doing the OPPOSITE.
This is a DIRECT result of Republican inaction. I tried to push a vote for over a YEAR to extend the ACA credits that helped folks get the health care they needed—but Republicans wouldn't budge. I won't stop fighting until health care becomes affordable for families at home.
It’s good that President Trump has approved this major disaster declaration for Washington state. There are more federal resources Washington will need and I’ll be working to make sure our communities get the help they need to recover.
Families in Seattle and Spokane didn't vote for Trump's war of choice, but they're the ones paying for it every time they fill up their tank. And Republicans are blocking Democrats from putting an end to this war for good.
This mission and yesterday's safe return just goes to show how outstanding American scientists and astronauts really are. Welcome home, Artemis II crew. Thank you for inspiring the world. 🚀🌙🌎
More than 400 hospitals are at risk of closing thanks to Trump's "big, ugly bill." This will hit rural families—they'll now have to drive even farther before they can get care—if it's not too late by then. This is what happens when you prioritize billionaires & bombs over Americans.
Where Congress should be a check on Trump’s every abuse of power—this Republican Congress is shamefully absent, even when he threatens to wipe out an entire country. My message to every American: you are voting in the fall. Your voice and your vote matter. You are not powerless.
Trump’s actions have already cost us tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, left our international credibility in shreds, and left thirteen servicemembers dead with hundreds more wounded. America is poorer, weaker, and less respected thanks to Trump’s war of choice.
The President of the United States cannot threaten genocide. That kind of erratic behavior is catastrophically dangerous and goes against everything we stand for as Americans. Congress must put him in check before he ever pushes so close to the brink again.
“A whole civilization will die tonight," is plainly threatening genocide and war crimes. Congress MUST step in. Republicans need to join Democrats to take action. Call Congress back into session—we should vote to end this war immediately.
These are the rantings of a bloodthirsty lunatic. It is sick beyond measure to threaten to wipe out an entire civilization. This is not what the American people want. It is well past time for the Republican Congress to join Democrats and put an end to this war.
The President is describing war crimes. America doesn't have money for child care, but we have enough money to bomb every bridge in Iran? It's sick and wrong. I've voted to end this war, and I'll keep voting to stop it—but we can only put an end to this if Republicans join us.
Imagine how many families we could help if, instead of giving the Pentagon more money than they can even figure out what to do with like Trump wants… …we cut people’s heating bills in half and made child care affordable for every family in America.
ICYMI: Here are 3 anti-abortion attacks Republicans have launched recently. With everything going on, it can be easy for this stuff to fly under the radar—but Republicans have not let up on  their extremist, anti-women crusade. WATCH ⬇️
