We hear a lot of talk about “freedom” from my Republican colleagues. And yet these same Republicans are working overtime to deny tens of millions of women the basic freedom to control their own bodies.

That is wrong, and it represents a fundamental betrayal of what freedom is about.

"You're seeing a lot of paid protesters" -- Rep. Mike Haridopolos's attempt to defend ICE's tactics in Minneapolis during a CNN panel discussion this morning did not go well. Bad used car salesman vibes.

President Trump flipping off an autoworker is just the latest insult after a long line of broken promises to American workers and manufacturing communities.

No, President Trump. Illegally canceling $2 billion in funding to deal with the mental health, addiction and opioid crises will not Make America Healthy Again.

It will lead to more illnesses, more overdoses and more deaths.

This blatantly unconstitutional act must be rescinded.

For Trump to put his name on the Kennedy Center and other federal buildings is not only arrogant and narcissistic, it is illegal.

We must put an end to sitting presidents naming buildings after themselves — and that’s what my bill does.

President Trump is rapidly moving this country toward authoritarianism.

Part of that is creating the myth of the “Great Leader” by naming public buildings after himself—something dictators have done.

Today I introduced a bill with @vanhollen.senate.gov & @alsobrooks.senate.gov to stop it.

Israel is forcing Doctors Without Borders & dozens of other humanitarian groups to end their work in Gaza. Countless innocent people rely on these services amid the ongoing crisis there.

This is yet another cruel, inhumane step from the extremist Israeli government.

Trump has:

- Illegally & unconstitutionally attacked Venezuela

- Provided Netanyahu with $12B in arms sales

- Given Argentina's president a $40B bailout

- Approved the sale of jets & tanks to Saudi Arabia

- Given Qatar an Air Force facility in Idaho

America first? Really?

Maduro was a dictator.

But let's not pretend Trump cares about democracy.

He cozies up to dictators all over the world when it suits him.

Trump has been clear: he wants Venezuela’s oil.

That’s not democracy. That’s imperialism.

The House did the right thing by extending ACA subsidies and stopping health care costs from exploding for 20 million Americans. The Senate must pass it next.

Short-term relief matters — but long term, we must fix our broken health care system and move toward Medicare for All.
Breaking news: More than a dozen House Republicans joined every Democrat to pass a bill extending enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies for three years — the sharpest GOP break with party leadership yet.
House passes bill extending health care subsidies, bucking GOP leaders
Prospects for passage in the Senate are unclear. The enhanced subsidies expired at the end of 2025, driving costs up for millions.

During the holiday season, we all want to spend time with our loved ones.
 
And yet, just two months after buying Walgreens for $10 billion, the private equity firm Sycamore Partners stripped hourly workers of paid vacation, including Christmas and New Year’s Day.
