Ending this famine is not only a moral imperative, it is also in the best interests of both Israel’s and our own country’s long-term national security.
While I have always supported Israel’s right to defend itself and protect the Israeli people, these dire circumstances must end.

Israel’s unacceptable choice to restrict humanitarian and food aid from entering Gaza—for months—is now causing innocent civilians, including young children, to starve to death.
I’ve long pressed the Netanyahu Administration in public and private to take substantive steps to alleviate the suffering of innocent civilians.
But conditions on the ground are getting worse, not better.
Tonight, I voted in favor of blocking the Trump Administration from sending more weapons to Israel.
Enough is enough.
The SNAP cuts in Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill hit the very rural communities he promised to protect—killing jobs, closing grocery stores and leaving less food on the table.
This is not what America wanted.
Medicaid has been a lifeline for 60 years.
For new moms. Seniors. People with disabilities. Everyone.
Trump and Republicans enacted the largest Medicaid cuts in history—
Stealing health care from those most in need to give tax cuts to the richest of the rich.
Shame on them.
In Chicago, we've seen a double-digit percentage drop in gun violence this year.
If we want to keep up this trend in our cities, we should be investing more in prevention programs—not less.
But Trump would rather make our streets less safe.

When I was bleeding out on a dusty field in Iraq, I didn’t care if the troops rescuing me were trans, gay, straight or anything else.
If you’re willing to sacrifice for our nation and can kill the enemy with lethal precision—you shouldn’t be denied the chance to serve. rollcall.com/2025/07/24/b...
It is an outrage that there is still not enough aid making it to Gazans in need.
And I'm horrified to see innocent civilians being targeted and killed as they try to seek out aid.
Rubio needs to address GHF's complicity in the starvation and killing of innocent Palestinians.
The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 changed lives.
But today, 35 years later, Republicans’ Medicaid cuts are attacking hard-won progress—
Cuts that will make it harder to access health care, mobility devices and more.
Trump is leaving the disability community behind.
Ahead of the ADA’s 35th anniversary tomorrow, I led @democrats.senate.gov in introducing a resolution to send a loud and clear message:
Disability rights are human rights.
As Republicans kick millions off Medicaid, we’ll never stop fighting to protect the disability community.
NEWS: I reintroduced my EACH Act with @pressley.house.gov to end the Hyde amendment and help lift unjust restrictions to reproductive health care for millions of Americans.
As Republicans kick 15 million off health care, Democrats are working to expand access.

Remember when Trump said he'd never do anything to hurt our Social Security?
In just seven years, recipients will face an $18,000 cut.
Estimated to "at least double the poverty rate of America's seniors."
It. Was. A. Lie. www.axios.com/2025/07/24/s...
Trump and Republicans just gave $4 trillion in tax giveaways to the nation’s most wealthy—
Meanwhile millions could wind up paying $700 extra next year just to keep the same plan.
Most families don’t have that kind of money lying around. This will cost lives.
For an Administration that claims to be obsessed with eliminating waste...
This is one of the dumbest, cruelest and most wasteful things they've ever done.
Typical Trump Administration.
Create chaos. Blame the victim. Repeat.
These people will point fingers at Mother Theresa before looking in the mirror.
Let’s be clear: this rescissions package isn’t about saving money.
Please, this isn’t about saving money.
Republicans just exploded the debt by at least 4 trillion dollars!!!
To fund tax cuts for billionaires.
Defunding Big Bird and Elmo isn’t going to fix that mess.
Neither is defunding programs to help starving children.
Millions get their news from NPR and PBS every day.
For emergency alerts, disaster updates, the weather and other reliable news.
Stations in rural areas, which rely twice as much on federal funding, could close.
Defunding this basic service would put millions in the dark.
