The January 6 rioters who Trump pardoned are arguing that their pardons even cover their attempts to kill the law enforcement officials who investigated them. Trump never should have put these would-be murderers back on the streets. www.politico.com/news/2025/03...
39 Americans were killed in storms across the country this weekend—and Trump was celebrating his club's golf championship. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Trump only cares about himself, not about showing leadership.
Slashes defense funding.⁣ ⁣ Cuts lifesaving medical research.⁣ ⁣ Gives Donald Trump and Elon Musk unprecedented and unchecked control.⁣ ⁣ This funding bill is anything but clean. I’m voting no.
Let’s be clear about what happened at the White House this week: Trump turned the People's House into a car dealership to boost the stock price for the billionaire who continues to bankroll him and his political allies. That’s corruption at its most blatant.
Homophobia and transphobia have no place in our state of neighbors, or anywhere else in the country. I'm proud to stand with the members of the LGBTQ community, and I'll keep working for the dignity and equality of every American. www.delawareonline.com/story/news/l...
Trump’s chaos is actively creating a more unsafe world.⁣ ⁣ So why is nearly every Republican in Washington this week supporting a cut to the defense spending we need to keep us safe?
I was blessed to catch up with Pastor Thomas Wilder of Birmingham’s Bethel Baptist Church on my pilgrimage to Alabama this weekend, and hear his powerful reflection for Lent: Keep your spirit strong.
Jeanne Shaheen will leave behind a huge hole in the Senate – not just as one of the strongest voices of reason we have, but as a kind, thoughtful and caring friend and colleague. I’ll miss her around here a lot. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/u...
I’m glad the Trump administration is beginning to see the truth: the Ukrainian people who are fighting and dying aren't the obstacle to ending this war—Russia is. We need to continue to staunchly support Ukraine until they achieve a just and lasting peace.
The United States said it will resume sending military aid and intelligence to Ukraine, as Ukraine agreed to a Trump administration proposal for a monthlong ceasefire.
This weekend also reminded me of the bravery of my friend, the late Rep. John Lewis. John never gave up on the promise of America. Neither may we.
Every time I visit Selma, the courage and patriotism of those who marched across the Edmund Pettus Bridge astonishes me. Proud to join colleagues this weekend to mark 60 years since Bloody Sunday and reaffirm our commitment to justice, equality, and hope.

Great to see my friend and fellow Delawarean Bryan Stevenson while in Selma this weekend to mark 60 years since Bloody Sunday, who shared some Lenten reflections with me after speaking to a bipartisan group of public officials.
