My Democratic colleagues have been voting all day—and we’ll keep at it—to make this bill less harmful. Republicans block our amendments because they like what the current bill does: it strips healthcare from millions of Americans to rig the tax code even more for the wealthy.
The GOP tax bill will wrap up millions of Americans – kids, seniors, folks with disabilities – with miles of red tape intended to make it impossible for them to keep their healthcare. I introduced an amendment to remove these obstacles. Nearly every Republican voted against it.
Nothing phony about it. Since Trump first pulled us out of the Iran nuclear deal, the world has only become more dangerous. He’s rushing to mission accomplished when what we need is to give our intelligence community time to do their jobs.
I’ve worked with Senator Thom Tillis for a decade on everything from human rights to intellectual property. We disagree on some significant topics, but he’s refused to sacrifice his constituents to get reelected. The Senate needs more people with Thom’s character, not fewer. He'll be missed.
Baptist minister and our President & CEO, Rev. @raushenbush.bsky.social, explains why religious leaders should speak out against Trump’s so-called “big, beautiful bill,” which includes cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital social programs that uplift vulnerable people. 🎥: @coons.senate.gov
Apparently, President Trump really doesn’t like this clip about how his desired Iran nuclear deal is a reheated version of the same deal he pulled us out of. It would be a shame if you watched it.
I know of no faith that teaches us to turn neighbor against neighbor Immigrants strengthen Delaware’s economy and enrich our communities. I’ll always fight for them.
Today, SCOTUS made clear that one branch of our government has free rein to do what it will without meaningful checks or review. This ruling will only embolden Trump in his dismantling of our government. It will create a patchwork of laws that shift depending on who you are or what state you’re in.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court limited judges' power on nationwide injunctions, leaving the fate of Trump's birthright citizenship order unclear.
When it comes to your health, listen to the doctors. On the GOP tax bill, doctors’ orders are loud and clear: don’t let Republicans take away health care from 16 million Americans and put your local doctor’s office or hospital out of business. www.forbes.com/sites/brucej...
Congress, not the president, has the sole power to commit our troops to action. If President Trump chooses to do so, he must consult with Congress and seek our approval. This is why I will vote for Senator Kaine’s War Powers Resolution.
It is too early to conclude how far Iran’s dangerous nuclear program has been set back and whether it will continue to pursue nuclear weapons. US forces being called back into action for an extended period of time, unfortunately, remains a possibility.
Today, we celebrate the anniversary of Obergefell v. Hodges, a historic decision affirming the right to marry the one you love. I’m committed to defending the right of everyone, regardless of who they love, to have the freedom to marry.
Trump’s pushing distractions so you lose sight of what matters: his massive cuts to health care, food aid, and more. I'll keep defending the programs that American families, kids, and seniors count on.
Trump's erratic economic policies are making America a worse place to invest, weakening Americans' financial security, and undermining our future prosperity. You shouldn't have to go broke so that he and his well-connected donors can benefit. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
