For months, we have sought that protection from a totally untrustworthy President.
To resolve this Republican shutdown, we don’t seek the perfect but just a bipartisan negotiation to achieve a reasonable resolution of this critical matter. (2/2)

With complete federal government control, Republicans control this government shutdown.
I do not believe we should yield to Trump’s demands without getting some protection for all those about to have their health care access to a physician denied or seriously impaired. (1/2)
Trump's lecture to military leaders that US cities should be used as "training grounds" against the "enemy within" shows it was never about crime or immigration.
It's about normalizing the misuse of troops against Trump’s opponents to create a military personally loyal to him, not the Constitution.
A big victory for freedom in a small country. Congratulations to Moldovan President Maia Sandu, with whom I met earlier this year in Chisinau. She overcame tremendous Russian manipulation to keep her country tied to Europe and deny Putin another front for more war crimes against Ukraine.
With more storms on the way, the National Weather Service has still not recovered from Trump’s unjustified slashing of its workforce.
Our local Austin/San Antonio office remains a quarter vacant. Meanwhile, the Trump Admin refuses to give a full accounting of how NWS handled the July floods.
While Trump's dispatching of our military against American citizens seems unprecedented, the President is creating precedents in an attempt to normalize his misuse of the military to suppress any opposition.
Big Pharma is the big winner, and American consumers are the big losers under Trump’s new 100% tariff tax on imported medicine.
The only answer Trump offers to prescription price gouging is to make prices even higher.
Sending troops for imaginary threats where they are not needed, while ignoring genuine threats where support for our allies could help to protect both them and our families.
“Artificial intelligence is profoundly limiting some young Americans’ employment prospects, new research shows.”
This is the type of challenge that deserves our attention rather than so much of the nonsensical, ever-changing Trump agenda.
While parents anxiously awaited news of their beloved children and put their hopes in search-and-rescue missions in the aftermath of the July 4 Central Texas floods, the head of FEMA was on vacation and unresponsive.
FEMA failed to undertake timely rescue operations that might have saved lives.
Trump’s failed trade war means higher prices for American families, including new 30% to 50% tariff taxes on imported furniture. This self-inflicted pain by Republicans is 100% preventable. I have legislation that would require Congress to approve any new Trump tariff tax before it goes into effect.
In one way or another, we've all been impacted by cancer. But tragically, the odds of survival dip significantly for those without health insurance.
My remarks on the devastating impact of Republicans taking away health care for 15 million Americans while cutting lifesaving medical research.
Instead of lowering prices, as he promised to do, Trump is pushing gimmicks that protect Big Pharma’s monopoly power and force consumers to hunt for better deals in a sea of outrageous prices.
A Trump prescription for more medical debt.
Great to visit with Dr. Nick Yagoda and Christine Gendron of CommUnityCare on the importance of keeping our community health clinics fully funded so they can keep delivering excellent care to Austinites.
GSA has long needed reform, but not from Musk/Trump's incompetent slashing. Ultimately, DOGE, here and at other federal agencies, will likely cost taxpayers much more than its illusory savings.
Chemicals found in plastics pose health risks, including in early pregnancy. I'm sounding the alarm for stricter regulations on plastics/microplastics, because Making America Healthy is inconsistent with the GOP turning a blind eye to big polluters.
We can't give up on creating a healthier planet.
Republicans enacted the largest health care cut in history this summer, denying 15 million Americans coverage.
Now, the GOP wants to inflict even more pain on your family because they'd rather shut down the federal government next Tuesday than stop insurance premium spikes by as much as 75%.
We all want access to cutting-edge treatments and technologies to help save lives, but we don't want false hope created by defective products, fraudsters, or the inability to access and afford medical devices.
After investigation of former FBI Director Comey revealed no evidence of probable crime, prosecutor declined to bring charges.
Unable to let go of his vendetta, Trump forced out the experienced criminal prosecutor, substituting his own personal insurance attorney to renew the prosecution attempt.
As details continue to emerge about a tragic shooting at an ICE facility in Dallas, my concern is for the victims and their families, as well as the endless cycle of gun violence. Blame and threats of political retribution only make matters worse.
