Folks across the country are being stretched to the limit at the grocery store and at the gas pump.
Instead of helping Americans, Trump and Republicans trying to give Trump’s lawless agents BILLIONS more.

Trump’s vision has always been: Families Lose, Billionaires Win.
Reposted bySenator Jeff Merkley
Instead of listening to hardworking Americans and funding health care, housing, and education, what have Republicans come to the floor to do? Pass another mega bill that does nothing to help families make ends meet.
Trump’s 2027 budget boils down to: families lose, billionaires win.
Reposted bySenator Jeff Merkley
Just like rest of his presidency, Trump’s 2027 budget is families lose, billionaires win.
On this Earth Day, let us recommit to protecting the planet we call home and all its inhabitants. I’ll keep fighting to protect our public lands, pursue bold climate action and environmental justice, and break the cycle of plastic pollution.

Amazon and Meta are billion-dollar corporations. So, why’d they get a massive tax cut from the bill Republicans say is for “working families?”
Trump’s parade of corruption continues with ANOTHER lavish party and promise of access for his crypto megadonors.
This is why I’m fighting to pass my End Crypto Corruption Act!
Reposted bySenator Jeff Merkley
Rather than focusing on lowering the cost of gas or groceries, Congressional Republicans are hellbent on passing another unpopular reconciliation bill to provide even more funds to ICE and border patrol.

BIG NEWS: Funding is headed to rural communities across Oregon thanks to the Secure Rural Schools program, created by @wyden.senate.gov.
This funding is a lifeline for rural communities in Oregon and across the country—supporting schools, public safety, and wildfire mitigation.

SEN. JOHNSON: "We are getting ripped off by the military industrial complex."
Even Republicans agree there is waste, fraud, and abuse baked into the Pentagon's budget. So why are they primed to give Trump a $1.5 TRILLION military budget this year?
Reposted bySenator Jeff Merkley
One week in Trump’s economy:
The Trump Administration is using FISA to spy on you without a warrant—arming Trump’s lawless federal agents with mountains of data, completely unchecked.
I will vote NO on giving Donald Trump and his cronies more power to spy on Americans.
Trump’s proposed budget is a total betrayal of working families.
I’m leading the charge to stop it.
Kash Patel was never fit to serve as FBI Director. He needs to resign. Now.
Trump and his cronies will never put you and your family ahead of Big Oil Billionaires.
It’s not America First. It’s families last.
Trump’s crypto corruption is spreading to his “Board of Peace,” which is reportedly considering a shady stablecoin scheme to rebuild Gaza. @warren.senate.gov, @vanhollen.senate.gov, @sanders.senate.gov, and I are demanding answers.

Incompetent or just dishonest?
Trump’s budget chief wouldn’t tell me how much the unconstitutional war in Iran is costing taxpayers.
At the same time, he’s begging Congress to EXPLODE the Pentagon budget to $1.5 TRILLION! Just OUTRAGEOUS.
Congress has a responsibility to rein in Trump’s unconstitutional war with Iran.
We all swore an oath to the Constitution. My Republican colleagues should uphold their oaths and help us pass a War Powers Resolution NOW.
Secretary Burgum is defying Congress to hide the status of renewable energy projects from the public.
The Trump Administration is waging an all-out war on renewable energy—I’m demanding answers.
