ICE’s aggressive and dangerous tactics do nothing to make our communities safer. Due process is not delivered with aggression and violence.
I’m fighting to stop ICE from terrorizing our communities.
Senate Republicans just BLOCKED the bipartisan War Powers resolution to end the illegal war in Venezuela.
They voted for forever wars, and against the best interests of the American people.
This is our moment for real, comprehensive change—like the bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act.
We need a strong bill that bans this corrupt practice—it’s a betrayal of the American people to pass something half baked.
We need to ban Congressional stock trading, but the latest House GOP bill is a smokescreen for real reform. This bill will let Members continue to hold and sell stock!
Republicans just BLOCKED a Senate vote on the bill to lower health care costs for Americans.
The House has already passed the bill—but Republicans in the Senate are content to let YOUR costs rise to avoid making Trump angry.
The House passed a bill to lower health care costs and fix the Republican health crisis.
The Senate should vote on this immediately—more than 20 million Americans are seeing their premiums SKYROCKET.

This is not what an “A+++++” economy looks like.
Congress has the power to declare war, not the President.
When @kaine.senate.gov’s war powers resolution comes up for a vote this week, the Senate should be united in telling Trump HELL NO to war with Venezuela.
The Iranian regime’s reported killing of thousands of people exercising their right to free speech is horrific. It’s critical that the world come together to condemn Iran’s human rights abuses. We can't allow Trump to turn the struggle of the Iranian people into a pretext for another U.S. war.
