Someone who has never, ever stopped caring enough about our nation to do the hard, grueling work necessary to make her a little more fair, a little more just—one day, one bill, one constituent at a time.
Someone who has never, ever stopped speaking out for those who far too often feel voiceless. Someone who has never, ever stopped fighting to hold the special interests in our country accountable.
It is only because of Dick’s empathy, patience, support and mentorship that I am in the United States Senate today. It has been the honor of a lifetime to get to work alongside a leader who embodies what it means to be a true public servant.
He saw a Soldier in search of her next mission. And he recognized well before I did that just because I would no longer be flying Black Hawks for the Army didn’t mean that I couldn’t find a new way to serve my nation.
The first time I met Dick Durbin was just 12 weeks after my shootdown—at a point so early in my recovery that I could barely sit up for any length of time, even in my hospital bed.
But when Dick looked at me, he saw past the wounds, saw past the wheelchair.
And while I will miss working with him so closely in the Senate, I know he will find a new way to keep serving his country in the years ahead—just as he encouraged a wounded Soldier in a Walter Reed hospital room to do, all those years ago.
Thank you, my friend. For everything.
There are no words to adequately express how grateful I am to call him a friend or how honored I’ve been to call him a mentor.

The decision of whether to run for re-election has not been easy. I truly love the job of being a United States Senator.
But in my heart, I know it’s time to pass the torch.
So, I am announcing today that I will not be seeking re-election at the end of my term.
We’re already facing a military recruitment crisis—
And Trump wants to turn away eligible Americans who are willing to serve and can do the job.
Trump’s unconstitutional trans military service ban must end. www.npr.org/2025/04/22/n...
On this Earth Day, we pledge to never back down in our work to stop Donald Trump's cruel, misguided campaign to make the American people unhealthier by rolling back environmental protections.
The Trump Administration has no regard for the millions of Americans in rural and underserved communities dealing with the cumulative effects of legacy pollution—higher rates of asthma, cancer and death rates—who will be hurt by their actions.
Trump has gone to great lengths to eliminate our environmental justice efforts, from shutting down critical EPA and DOJ offices to freezing funding for projects that have been getting lead out of our kids' drinking water.
On Earth Day six years ago, @booker.senate.gov and I launched the Senate's first-ever Environmental Justice Caucus—because we believe every American deserves the right to breathe clean air and drink clean water. 🌎
Unfortunately, Donald Trump doesn't agree.
