Americans are still paying the price for the President’s reckless economic decisions.
Tariffs, an unnecessary war of choice, and rising costs aren’t just making headlines, they’re making groceries, utilities, and everyday life more expensive.

You can tell a lot about a government’s priorities by who it asks to sacrifice.
It shouldn’t be hungry kids. But that’s exactly what the Republican-backed budget does.
BREAKING: TRUMP AND REPUBLICANS HAVE KICKED AT LEAST 1.5 MILLION KIDS OFF SNAP

This historic investment will strengthen our economy, create good-paying jobs, and position the heartland at the forefront of American innovation – I’m proud to have supported this effort.

Kansas City is helping build America’s future.
Congratulations to UMKC on being selected as one of just 12 new NSF Regional Innovation Engines.
Working alongside Chairman Mike Flood and colleagues on both sides of the aisle, we delivered the most significant housing legislation in nearly four decades. The work continues.

I’m honored to receive the Carl A.S. Coan, Sr. Lifetime Achievement Award for Public Service from the National Housing Conference.
This recognition reflects what can happen when we choose collaboration over division.
The power of the purse belongs to Congress. Taxpayer dollars are appropriated to serve the public, not to reward political allies or punish those who disagree with the President.
We ask extraordinary things of our servicemembers. They shouldn’t pay the price for the President’s war of choice. The least we owe them is competent leadership, accountability, and answers.
Americans want lower prices, affordable housing, and stronger communities, not another costly forever war abroad with a catchy nickname. Let's invest in America instead of inventing new missions abroad.
First your paycheck. Then your healthcare. Now your retirement.
It’s becoming a familiar pattern - fewer protections for workers, more opportunities for powerful interests.
Working families deserve an economy that works for them, not another giveaway to Wall Street.
We should have learned that you can’t manage a public health crisis by ignoring it. Politicizing science and weakening disease surveillance doesn’t make threats disappear, it only makes us less prepared to respond.
The Red Scare taught us what happens when fear and political hysteria replace democratic debate. Resurrecting that playbook, and pairing it with calls to deport political opponents, is un-American.

The measure of our immigration system isn’t just whether it enforces the law, it’s whether it does so with humanity, accountability, and respect for life.
Congress shouldn’t be writing ICE a bigger blank check while basic accountability remains unanswered.
A person was killed in an ICE-involved shooting in Maine, state official says. It comes days after a man was fatally shot by an ICE agent in Texas.

Today, the most consequential housing legislation in nearly half a century became law, proving that when we work together, we can deliver for the American people.
This was never about Planned Parenthood, it was always about patients. Essential healthcare should never become collateral damage.
This news means more folks can once again get preventative care, screenings, and services that keep communities healthy.

We spent the past 18 months building bipartisan consensus to help Americans afford a place to call home. The President chose politics, and Congress chose progress.
At midnight, progress becomes law.
I’m proud to have secured $750,000 to help make this vision a reality, and I’m just as proud to continue leading the fight in Congress for bold, bipartisan solutions to America’s housing crisis.
