I welcomed the Delaware Coalition Against Domestic Violence for an important conversation about protecting federal funding for domestic violence programs, and I was moved by the stories they shared with me. I’ll do everything I can to protect funding for these critical programs.

We have an opportunity to commit to a better future— one where my granddaughter’s generation has more freedoms than we had, not less. @democrats.senate.gov are ready to take that opportunity. I hope my colleagues across the aisle have the courage to do the same. youtube.com/shorts/QY9hN...

ACIP exists to make sure vaccines are safe & effective. By replacing experts with vaccine skeptics, RFK Jr. has undone the credibility of this nonpartisan panel and put public health at risk. This meeting isn't about safety— it's a further effort to undermine faith in vaccines.

For the first time since Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. replaced all the members of the vaccine committee, it is meeting in Atlanta.

Constituents have told me how Medicaid empowers them to hold jobs, live normal lives, and participate as full members of society. They’re not going to just “get over it.” When we hear from people back home about policies we’re voting on, our job is to listen.

Mitch McConnell reacts to concerns about Medicaid cuts: "I know a lot of us are hearing from people back home about Medicaid. But they'll get over it"

Republicans have been piecing together a puzzle that, when fully assembled, is the blueprint for a national abortion ban. I joined @murray.senate.gov and several colleagues to shine a light on the pieces of this harmful puzzle, and how we’re going to fight to protect access to reproductive care.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJun 24(source)

Republicans want a national abortion ban, but they can’t pass it outright, so they’re building one piece-by-piece. It started 3 years ago with the Dobbs decision— but now they’re trying to go even further. Together, we’re fighting to make sure this is one puzzle they never finish.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJun 24(source)

This morning, we came together to mark 3 years since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and threatened access to reproductive care nationwide. As Republicans work to piece together their abortion ban, we’ll fight hard to protect your right to make your own health decisions.

The Trump administration is causing chaos in our streets and around the world—why? They want to distract you from the fact that their big bad bill sells out working families to help the richest people on the planet get even richer.

Thank you to the Delaware Black Chamber of Commerce for hosting their 5th Annual Juneteenth Celebration last night in Wilmington and for all they do for businesses in our state.

Proud to stand alongside women leaders from all corners of our country in this moment. We’re speaking with one voice to make it clear: there is no place for political violence in our communities. Together, we will demand - and create - a safer democracy.

One week ago, Melissa Hortman and her husband were taken from us in a horrific act of political violence. Political violence is never justified. Armed extremism is a threat to democracy. Honor Melissa by rejecting division—and choosing courage.

Thank you to Delaware National Guard and General Benson for the lovely surprise this morning! I’m always proud to support our National Guard in their work to keep our communities safe.

Was proud to be in Lewes yesterday to kick off the ‘Hate Has No Home Here’ Campaign. We are in a dark moment in our history — a moment where the powerful are targeting the weak to divide us for their gain. But as long as groups like this come together, hate has no home.

Up and down our state, Delawareans are commemorating Juneteenth. While we celebrate how far we’ve come on Freedom Day, let us not forget how far we have yet to go. Happy Juneteenth, Delaware!

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJun 18(source)

This President likes to talk about being ‘colorblind’ and protecting ‘every American,’ but for too many his actions have left them feeling erased from society. Our government should be advancing equal opportunities for ALL Americans, not just those deemed ‘worthy’ by the party in power.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJun 18(source)

Across the country, people are being priced out of their communities and are struggling to find a safe, stable place to call home. I was glad to join the Bipartisan Policy Center to talk about how we can address barriers to new affordable housing and bring down costs nationwide.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJun 18(source)

This administration is openly advocating for discrimination at the VA for patients and providers alike. It’s both cruel and dystopian that this president would deny our VETERANS care because they are unmarried or voted for his opponents.

‘Extremely disturbing and unethical’: new rules allow VA doctors to refuse to treat Democrats, unmarried veterans

Trump order allows VA staff to decline providing healthcare to patients based on political affiliation or marital status

I was glad to join @udelaware.bsky.social’s Democracy Project today to connect with teachers from across our state. Civics education is a vital piece of a healthy democracy, and I’m so grateful for their commitment to helping our kids understand their government.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJun 17(source)

10 years ago, a gunman motivated by racial hatred came into Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston and took nine lives. This solemn moment is a reminder how much work remains to end gun violence and disarm hate.
