Trump promised to ‘make America affordable again,’ but these cuts will make the housing crisis we already face so much worse.

Honored to be here in Wilmington to celebrate the groundbreaking of Villa Maria, a safe, affordable community for seniors.
Making sure every single Delawarean has a place to call home is a top priority— I was glad to celebrate this exciting step in the right direction.
Happy 107th birthday, Ms. Susan Browne!
It was a pleasure to spend some time with Ms. Browne - Delaware State University’s oldest living alumna - and hear about her remarkable life.

My statement on President Assanis' decision to step down as president of @udelaware.bsky.social.
Stories like this are far from uncommon in Delaware and across the country. This administration is abandoning hardworking Americans—raising prices, cutting benefits, and making it harder to get by.
Your stories help me fight for you— thanks to Bradley from Milford for doing his part.
Yesterday was a busy day here in Washington– here's a look at a day in my life fighting for you as your U.S. Senator.
Senator Kaine and I are on the Senate floor as we work to turn off Trump's tariffs, which are ultimately just a national sales tax on consumers.
While prices are going up & your retirement savings go down, Senate Republicans are working overtime to make matters worse.

This is the country we love, and @democrats.senate.gov are always going to stand up for it.

“We do this because this is our country. We do this because this is our democracy. And we do this because we recognize that we are all in this together.”
@bluntrochester.senate.gov: “Make no mistake: Democrats are going to continue to fight and each of us must do our part in this moment.”
It's common sense: when we're facing workforce shortages, we should be helping those who served their time find good jobs while simultaneously supporting our local businesses and economies.
I'm proud to reintroduce the Clean Slate Act — let's get it done.

Today we're marking Second Chance month by announcing the reintroduction of the Clean Slate Act.
This bipartisan bill will offer a fresh start to those who have served their time and paid their debt. It’s about jobs, housing, and education – and offering people a second chance.
Let Me Be Blunt: the first 100 days of this administration have been nothing but chaos, confusion, and uncertainty.
Here are ten major ways they've made life worse for American families ⬇️

Heartbroken by the tragedy that took place on the @udelaware.bsky.social campus yesterday.
I'm praying for the family, friends, and loved ones of the student who lost their life and for the other community members who were injured to make a full recovery.

Stopped by to thank doctors from the American College of Emergency Physicians for everything they do to keep Delaware healthy.
Getting wait times down, pushing back on abortion bans, and reducing burnout are priorities we share – I’ll do everything I can to support their work.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau helps Americans who get scammed, cheated, and ripped off by big companies. Now, the Trump Administration is trying to destroy it.
But Congress created the CFPB, and we'll fight hard to defend it.

Just spent a few hours on the steps of the capitol with
@booker.senate.gov & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social as people from all across the country shone a light on the harms of the Republicans' budget.
There are all sorts of ways for you to show up in this moment— all you're called to do is your part.
I’m thankful to all the Delawareans who showed up today to make their voices heard at our town hall.
In this moment, everyone has a role to play to defend our democracy.
As your elected officials, we are working together to hold this administration accountable & fight for you.
Our Delaware delegation town hall is starting now!

Saddened to learn that Alexis Herman, our first Black Secretary of Labor, has passed.
Her deep sense of justice guided her efforts to uplift workers, empower women, and fight for racial and economic equality.
Her memory will be an inspiration for generations to come.
