Billionaires and the largest corporations? They’re doing FINE. They don’t need a handout at the expense of struggling families.   But Republicans want to kick kids off their health care to shower the richest companies on earth with more tax cuts.   No way. We need to put this heist on full blast.
Trump is required by LAW to get $220 million for childhood literacy programs out the door to benefit students. Secretary McMahon couldn't even provide a basic timeline to do so.   Trump's illegally impounding YOUR taxpayer dollars—meant to help kids learn to read—to cut taxes for billionaires.
President Trump is now asking Republicans in Congress to rubberstamp Elon's DOGE cuts and codify them into law. Every Senator should vote NO and reject Trump’s request to cut off local news broadcasts and weaken our national security. My full statement ⬇️
Trump just quietly erased guidance that told hospitals they had to save pregnant women's lives. That's right—they don't care how many women die or are forced into health crises to advance their anti-abortion agenda. I won’t let this fly under the radar.
Elon’s right about this: the bill IS an abomination, and it WILL explode our national debt. The best place to send the Republican tax bill is straight into the trash. 🗑️
I asked Secretary McMahon if she had done ANY analysis about how the Department of Education would be able to perform its basic obligations under the law before firing HALF of its staff. NO analysis was done. None. These people want to take a CHAINSAW to public education with a BLINDFOLD on.
I hope you'll listen to Rachel as she shares her son’s story.   Nate is a disabled adult who relies on Medicaid. Medicaid makes Nate's life & dreams possible—it means freedom. Cuts to Medicaid eliminate those freedoms.   Help share Nate's story & join me in saying: NO CUTS TO MEDICAID.
Visited Springwood Ranch last week. I'm committed to supporting the collaborative work happening to protect our water, environment, fish, and agriculture in the Yakima Basin.   We can safeguard our environment, honor Tribal Treaty rights, and grow our economy at the same time.
The Republican tax bill won’t just kick millions off their health care, it will SPIKE premiums and RAISE costs for EVERYONE. The cuts to Medicaid, attacks on the ACA, and surge in uninsured Americans will even force hospitals to close their doors. Congress needs to REJECT these cuts.
Horrifying to witness yet another antisemitic attack on the Jewish community yesterday in Boulder. Each one of us needs to speak out to make clear that hate, violence, and antisemitism have no place in our communities. My thoughts are with the victims as they recover.
Proud to fight for our LGBTQ community in the U.S Senate. Let’s keep working to ensure dignity for everyone and equal protection under the law, no matter who you love or how you identify. Happy pride, Washington state! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
Republicans are trying to pass the largest ever cuts to health care & nutrition assistance in our country’s history, but the savings from these cuts don’t even pay for their bill.   The GOP tax cuts for billionaires will still blow up the deficit by trillions—even Elon admits it!
Good to meet with everyone working to make the Wenatchi Landing project a reality for Douglas County. I’ll be working to help secure the federal funding we need to get this over the finish line and help power more jobs and economic growth.
Why do billionaires need more tax cuts than kids need health insurance? Why do billionaires need more tax cuts than hungry kids need food?   They don’t. The bill Republicans are trying to pass is WRONG. Every Senator needs to vote NO.
For 60+ years, the Job Corps has helped millions of young people get workforce training & land good jobs, especially in the trades.

Trump is shutting down programs NOW, ignoring the funding Congress provided. So much for having workers' backs. These cuts must be reversed.
You can't kick millions off Medicaid without forcing hospitals across America to close, especially in rural communities. People who've lost coverage will delay care and eventually head to the emergency room, uninsured. Every Senator needs to vote NO on these Medicaid cuts.
I met with providers in Snohomish County who provide hope & housing to their communities, helping to prevent homelessness and get people back on their feet. Trump's jeopardizing their work.   I'm going to fight with everything I have to rip up his budget & protect funding for housing.
Elon's legacy ranges from gutting cancer research to setting in motion millions of deaths from starvation or disease. I'll be pushing for Congress to hold Elon & DOGE accountable—for every act of corruption, every disastrous consequence, and every law they have broken.
