The JCPOA provided the right framework, and we should work with the International Atomic Energy Agency to get back to that approach. Diplomacy and alliance building are the only long-term solutions that will bring about an enduring peace and prosperity in the Middle East. (5/5)

The United States must rebuild the international coalition of allies and partners forged under the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and build on it by penalizing countries that break international sanctions and buy Iranian oil at discounted prices. (4/5)
Congress must also reassert its constitutional authorities to head off future reckless or shortsighted Presidential actions on issues of war and trade. (3/5)
It requires working with our allies and the international community to move towards diplomatic solutions that ensure that Iran is no longer a state sponsor of terrorism and national security threat. Congress should work to pass the Enhanced Iranian Sanctions Act. (2/5)
The United States should work to do everything it can to avoid a larger war with Iran or a larger Middle East conflict. (1/5)
Members of the House and Senate are trying to prohibit AI policy that is already on the books. We should be fighting to protect consumers, not enabling AI theft or fraud to happen.

Happy Juneteenth to everyone! I was honored to join the Juneteenth Freedom Celebration last weekend in Vancouver, WA. Today is a day to celebrate and also to recognize there's a lot of work to still be done on civil rights, voting rights, and social and economic justice.
It’s been 95 years since the Smoot-Hawley Act, leading to 20% tariffs that widened and deepened the Great Depression. Some of Trump’s tariffs are just as high or higher. We must avoid repeating this historical policy mistake.

A transparent rules-based trading system is how we open markets, level the playing field, and boost exports and create the high-wage jobs they support.

My heart goes out to Rep. Melissa Hortman’s family, and I pray for the full recovery of Sen. John Hoffman and his wife. My sympathies also go to my colleagues in Minnesota who lost a very talented legislator and personal friend.
Political violence has no place in our country.
The United States should now lead the international community towards a diplomatic solution to avoid a wider war that would have devastating consequences for our ally Israel, the people of the Middle East, as well as the world economy. (3/3)
We are at this crisis today because President Trump foolishly walked away from President Obama’s 2018 Iran nuclear agreement under which Iran had agreed to dismantle much of its nuclear program and to open its facilities to international inspections, putting more eyes on the ground. (2/3)
According to yesterday’s report by the International Atomic Energy Agency, Iran is closer to getting nuclear weapons. That is a real threat to Israel and would destabilize the already volatile Middle East. (1/3)
I am outraged by how Sen. Padilla was treated today. How can it be in the United States of America that a senator elected by the people of his state who wants to have his voice heard on behalf of his constituents is handcuffed and thrown to the ground? It's not acceptable.

1/3 of U.S. rural hospitals are already at risk of closing. Cutting Medicaid puts these rural hospitals at an even higher risk of possible closure.

June is #PrideMonth, a time to celebrate our LGBTQ+ community. LGBTQ+ rights are human rights, and I’m proud to stand with the community as we fight to protect LGBTQ+ Americans from discrimination and prejudice.
The Griswold v. Connecticut decision 60 years ago today was such an important moment for the history of women. We need to protect the right to contraception access so it can't be taken away. That’s why I'm glad to be a co-sponsor of the Right to Contraception Act.
It was an honor to join members of International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers District 751 in Everett to celebrate the ribbon cutting of their new Machinists Institute today -- and to try my hand at some virtual reality welding!
U.S. and allied troops undertook the largest amphibious invasion in history 81 years ago today, bravely storming the beaches of Normandy to restore democracy to Europe. We owe our freedom to their sacrifices and those of their families.
