🚨Senator @welch.senate.gov : We have the money in this country for nutrition & healthcare but they're NOT the priority. CUTS to them was a way for Trump tax cuts to be, "paid for." The cuts go to the WEALTHY & CORPORATIONS, & PAID for it by taking away kids' nutrition programs.💔
Colleagues on both sides of the aisle came together to discuss how we can make our communities more resilient to extreme weather and improve the disaster recovery process. Regardless of our politics, I believe we can find common ground on protecting all Americans.

Senator Jeff Merkley asks experts questions at a bipartisan roundtable discussion Peter hosted on how Congress can help make communities more resilient.
Rural communities in both red and blue states have been hit hard by the overdose epidemic. That’s why I’m leading a bill with Senator Capito to get more resources to rural communities so they can prevent and treat addiction.
Today, Republicans on the Judiciary Committee are planning to advance Todd Blanche’s nomination. He’s one of the most unqualified Attorney General nominees in modern history. I will vote no.
Todd Blanche has made it clear: he’s President Trump's lawyer, not America's lawyer. He signed off on a slush fund deal for President Trump’s supporters. He disrespected Epstein survivors and bungled releasing the files. Blanche has no business being Attorney General.
All around the country, doctors who care for seniors are struggling to stay afloat because Medicare is simply not paying them enough for their services.   That's why I’m leading a bill with Senator Boozman to increase payments so seniors can keep access to the providers they rely on.
While he was following the law and attending one of his asylum appointments, ICE detained Ricardo Hernández-Navarrete. He was separated from his mother, held in solitary confinement, and threatened with pepper spray. It took over two months for a judge to order his release. https://bit.ly/4vXxVew
Since last year, President Trump's tariffs have forced Vermont small businesses to pay an extra $195 million. On top of that, fewer Canadian tourists are visiting, causing a massive blow to our tourism economy. Trump’s tariffs are a tax on small businesses.
