Just because Fox News and my Republican colleagues keep saying it, that doesn’t mean it’s true. No, our bill doesn’t give health care to illegal immigrants – it just stops health care costs from skyrocketing for millions of Americans.

Why is Trump more concerned about getting his ballroom opened than the government reopened?
This government shutdown won't end without trust, and frankly, Republicans have spent ten months giving us reasons not to trust them. They need to come to the table so we can reopen the government and get back to work for the American people.
Don't take it from me, take it from a former Director of ICE – sending armed and masked agents into peaceful neighborhoods is making all Americans less safe.

To make America healthy and affordable for families, we need to keep costs down, not stand by as insurance premiums skyrocket. www.bbc.com/news/article...
One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer. During this National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let’s honor those who have fought this terrible disease and come together to find a cure.

Everything Trump does is making your health care worse. Even his immigration policy makes it harder for you to see a doctor.
I’ve traveled to other countries where the public ignores the press because they know the media is controlled by the government and anything reported is at best a half truth. I’m proud to live in a country where journalists can report on what Americans want and need to know.
Secretary Hegseth shouldn’t be running from journalists. His new requirements for the Pentagon press corps are un-American, and I’m glad to see so many news organizations across the political spectrum standing up for the First Amendment and an informed American populace.
Trump promised on the campaign trail to bring down prices on Day One. His reckless tariffs have done the opposite.
It’s Day 14 of the Republican shutdown.
Democrats are fighting every day to lower health insurance costs for millions of Americans. Republicans are fighting for new tax breaks for their donors.
If you don't want to hear it from Democrats, hear out Pope Leo.
One cannot claim to follow Christ while casting out immigrants. One cannot claim to follow Christ while ignoring the vulnerable. One cannot claim to follow Christ while staying silent in the face of injustice.
A day long overdue. I'm overjoyed that the remaining living hostages have been released and are finally being reunited with their loved ones.
It’s been less than 20 days since Trump ordered AG Bondi to go after three of his political enemies. Now, two have been indicted.
We have a president consumed with going after those who have opposed him and a DOJ bending to his whims.
But I’m not backing down. Neither should you.
I’m working to make sure our servicemembers still get their checks despite the Republican shutdown. House Republicans won’t even show up to work to make sure our troops get paid next week.
President Trump’s threat to withhold pay from federal workers is illegal. I know it. The IRS knows it. And you can bet Trump knows it too. www.axios.com/2025/10/08/t...
Trump doesn’t actually care about lowering your drug prices, just like Republicans don’t want to lift a finger to help you with health care costs. He just wants to keep making himself and his family richer.
Masked ICE agents are assaulting clergy members like Rev. David Black, a Presbyterian minister from Chicago, who was peacefully protesting in his hometown. All Americans, regardless of faith, should be disturbed by this.
Sorry, Senator Thune, but that’s just BS. The government is shut down because Republicans refused to lower costs and save health care for millions of Americans.
