Trump’s vendetta against mail-in voting, which is safe and secure, is about picking who can vote and avoiding accountability.   Democrats will continue fighting every day to block all of Trump’s illegal actions and ensure that Americans can freely cast their ballots this year.
Today’s decision is a very significant victory for free and fair elections and a defeat for Donald Trump’s vile efforts to make it harder for people to vote.

Once again, the courts have reaffirmed that Trump’s efforts to subvert the election are patently unconstitutional.
BREAKING: In a huge win, a federal court blocked parts of Trump's executive order targeting mail voting. The judge halted: ✔️A mandate to create lists of verified U.S. citizens eligible to vote in each state. ✔️ USPS' decision to only mail absentee ballots from certain individuals.
I have introduced legislation to extend TPS for Haitians, and will keep fighting to protect Haitian and Syrian families from being forced back into danger. America should not turn its back on people who came here seeking safety.
TPS exists for exactly this reason: to protect people when returning home is unsafe. Haiti and Syria remain unsafe today. Instead of showing basic humanity, Donald Trump and this Court have chosen fear, chaos, and cruelty.
In a cruel and inhumane decision, the Supreme Court just turned its back on more than 300,000 Haitians and thousands of Syrians who have worked and raised families here because they faced violence and instability back home.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to end legal protections for migrants fleeing violence and natural disaster in Haiti and Syria.
This is why full access to health care matters. Listen to the Co-Director of the Texas-based Maternal Health Equity Collective, Nakeenya Wilson tell her story and illustrate why it’s so important that we do everything we can to protect reproductive rights:
You can sum up both the Dobbs decision and the entire far-right philosophy the same way: Less freedom in your life, and more government interference in your personal decisions. That’s the MAGA way.
Today marks a grim four years since the devastating Dobbs ruling Women have faced chaos, uncertainty, and fear when it comes to their reproductive freedom and health care for four long years We must restore the right to abortion, and I won't stop fighting until we do
In Trump’s post-Roe America: —20+ states have total or near-total abortion bans —Women have to travel hundreds of miles to get care they need —Patients & doctors punished like criminals for lifesaving treatment Republicans can’t hide from the pain they've inflicted on women
FOUR YEARS AGO TODAY: With their dreadful Dobbs decision, six far-right Justices broke nearly 50 years of precedent to rip away the right to choose from millions of women. It will go down as one of the most damaging, deeply out-of-touch Supreme Court decisions in our history.
Ever since the awful Dobbs decision, the GOP has not stopped working to restrict access to abortion care. I'm with @murray.senate.gov hearing from people who've been forced to live with the consequences of this assault on their reproductive freedom, discussing how we're fighting back.
For more than 100 days, Congress – and the American people – have demanded transparency, answers, and an end to the fighting. Every second this war continues, the cost to the American people goes higher and higher.
Trump promised ‘maximum pressure’ on Iran. What he delivered through this reckless war was maximum confusion, maximum chaos, and maximum cost to the American people.
The message from the only branch of government with the power to declare war is unmistakable: the Trump administration must withdraw U.S. forces from hostilities in Iran. The pressure on Republicans mounts.
Today, Congress stood up to Donald Trump and voted to end his costly, unnecessary, and devastating war with Iran. Let me be clear: for the first time, this resolution has passed both chambers of Congress and does not require the President’s signature.
Breaking News: The Senate instructed President Trump to end the war in Iran or seek congressional approval, a major bipartisan rebuke.
Trump and Republicans enacted massive Medicaid cuts and refused to extend ACA premium tax credits. The result? 5 MILLION Americans have lost Medicaid and ACA coverage. Each one a real person forced to choose between health care and paying the bills.
A headline from NBC News reads: Medicaid and ACA enrollment falls by more than 5 million, new report finds
Free and fair elections in America got a big boost in court yesterday. Letting Trump scrape through Americans’ private data to purge them from the voter rolls is ILLEGAL. Democrats will keep blocking Trump's anti-democracy SAVE Act, and we won't let him rig the rules in November.
A headline from NPR reads: A federal judge finds a Trump data system to verify voters is unlawful
NEWS: Democrats will force a vote on a House-passed Iran War Powers Resolution to end the war. This will be our TENTH War Powers vote to put Republicans on the record and end this costly war once and for all. We will put Senate Republicans on record again and again.
