This is an important first step toward ending the violence and creating the space for diplomacy, rebuilding, and reconciliation. But sustainable peace will require continued courage, leadership, and a shared commitment to ensuring that both Israelis and Palestinians can live safely and with dignity.

Democrats came ready to lower health care costs.

Republicans walked away and shut down the government.

We need a deal that puts working families first — and actually lowers their costs.

The Trump 2.0 Agenda:

- Billionaires get handouts
- Working families get higher costs
- Federal workers go unpaid

Republicans aren’t fighting to lower your costs — they’re fighting for their donors.

So Trump thinks we should give a $20B bailout to the right wing government in Argentina, but we can’t afford to keep your healthcare from going up by $1000s of dollars a year? Bullshit.

Received this video from a former staffer of mine. It’s a leaking pipeline in the Permian Basin. They called the Carlsbad field office and no one picked up, so it can’t be reported or followed up on.

The cost of the shutdown will be felt for decades.

At a time when energy demand is going up astronomically, the Trump Administration is making your electricity bill more expensive.

Let's be clear: Republicans just spent $3.4 trillion on tax cuts for high-end earners. We're talking about $35 billion a year for working people.

We can afford this.

If my Republican colleagues can afford to give a $3.4 trillion tax cut to Trump and his billionaire friends, then we can afford to hold down people’s health care costs.

Who do you know who can afford $400 more a month in health care premiums?

Since the beginning of the ACA, Democrats have fought to deliver affordable health care and Republicans have made up lies to keep you from getting it.

There were no death panels, there are no demands for free health care for undocumented immigrants.

Nakedly political and unlawful.

These projects would have created jobs and lowered costs.

Dr. Jane Goodall was a remarkable scientist and a relentless voice for conservation. She dedicated her entire life to understanding the natural world and spreading a message of enduring hope. I am grateful for and will miss her leadership, conviction, and trailblazing spirit.

President Trump, folks.

This is the shutdown he wanted, and he knows it. That’s why he ordered Republican leaders not to negotiate. It’s why he is lying about Democrats’ asks. And it’s why he doesn’t care that Americans’ health care costs are skyrocketing.

If Republicans get their way, New Mexicans' health care premiums will go up $300+/month. Hard to wrap your head around how harmful this will be for families.

I spoke with folks about why I’m fighting for a bipartisan deal that protects New Mexico from higher premiums.

Let's be clear: Trump and Republicans are forcing a shutdown.

Rather than negotiate with us to lower costs, Trump is using your tax dollars to push propaganda on a government website meant to help you with housing.
