Trump and DOGE are firing America's veterans, who make up 30% of our federal workers.
Our veterans have fought so hard for our country. They don’t deserve this. Their families don’t deserve this.
I’m fighting for our veterans and military families.

I made sure that President Trump, DOGE, and Secretary Kennedy heard us loud and clear:
Do not mess with our first responders and the healthcare of 9/11 survivors.
Now they’re backing off their brutal cuts to the 9/11 survivor health program and rehiring the workers.

Democrats will not stop working on the floor tonight to keep fighting back.
The Republicans couldn’t even say yes to that because they just so badly want to give their billionaire buddies another tax break that they’re willing to take health care away from kids, kick grandparents out of nursing homes, and abandon Americans with disabilities.
I put an amendment on the Senate floor that says no billionaire should have a tax cut if a single dollar of Medicaid funding is cut.
But you guessed it:
But Republicans just couldn’t help themselves. They voted no. Because they want to give their billionaire buddies yet another tax break.
Democrats will not stop putting amendment after amendment on the floor to keep fighting back.
I took to the floor with an amendment that says one simple thing:
No billionaire should get another tax break.
Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Republicans are trying to give their billionaire buddies a tax break and have you, the American people, pay the cost.
