This DoD review is clearly designed to shrink the number of women who bravely serve in combat roles, which would be devastating to our military readiness. Women have always made our military stronger— And they're more qualified to serve in combat than Hegseth is to be SecDef.
NPR: Pentagon will begin review of 'effectiveness' of women in ground combat positions

One of Trump’s ICE agents killed a U.S. citizen in Minneapolis. We need an immediate investigation into the ICE officer, accountability and justice. My heart goes out to the family and the people of Minnesota. ICE is clearly not making us safer. This needs to stop.

Any effort to take Greenland by force or coercion is as ridiculous as it is dangerous. It would threaten our NATO alliance and do nothing to help Americans here at home afford health insurance, groceries or child care. Trump ran on lowering costs. It’s time he acted like it.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJan 6(source)
Again and again, Trump proves he has no respect for our Constitution or the rule of law. No matter the cost. And Republicans continue to bend the knee to this wanna-be king.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJan 6(source)
The mob assaulted Capitol police officers, shouted death threats aimed at elected officials and abused American flags to lay waste to the halls of our democracy—and yet the President pardoned these traitors to our country. Many of whom have since committed additional violent crimes.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJan 6(source)
It doesn't get more wicked than this. Donald Trump is cutting $10 billion for child care and social services in Illinois and 4 other blue states. Playing politics and coming after kids because they happen to live in states that voted against him is anything but America first.
New York Times: Health Dept. to Freeze $10 Billion in Funding to 5 Democratic States The funding pause could jeopardize child care and other programs that serve hundreds of thousands of households in California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota and New York.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJan 5(source)
Trump promised lower costs and America first. But as healthcare and grocery bills skyrocket, he is focused on building ballrooms, renaming the Kennedy Center and literally running another country. This is not what America asked for. This is not what America deserves.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJan 5(source)
It is wildly inappropriate for the Trump Admin to go after its political critics like this—let alone heroes like Sen. Kelly. Kelly is a patriot who has always put our American democracy first and always supported our servicemembers and the rule of law. Something neither Trump or Hegseth can say.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has launched administrative action against Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly, a retired Navy captain and astronaut, which could affect Kelly's rank and retirement pay. n.pr/4pkyo7l

Trump's actions continue putting American troops, personnel and citizens at risk both in the region and around the globe. None of that serves our nation’s interests.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJan 3(source)
Maduro was unquestionably a bad actor, but no President has the authority to unilaterally decide to use force to topple a government, thrusting us and the region into uncertainty without justification, a defined end-state or a real plan for preventing the instability that could come next.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJan 3(source)
Donald Trump’s reckless and unconstitutional operations in Venezuela—including this morning’s arrest of a foreign leader—are not about enforcing law and order. If they were, he wouldn’t hide them from Congress.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJan 2(source)
This is a lie. We blocked Trump’s troop deployment to Chicago. The Supreme Court even ruled Trump would have been breaking the law had he deployed them on our streets. I’m relieved our patriotic troops are finally heading home to their families after Trump unlawful deployment.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govDec 29(source)
In these final days of 2025, I can’t help but reflect on the year we’ve been through—the struggles, the progress and everything in between. Whatever the new year may bring, I’m ready to keep fighting for Illinois.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govDec 24(source)
A man who has never served a day in his life is taking away Veterans' freedom to choose in cases of rape, incest or when the health of the mother is at risk. Trump is putting millions of Veterans in danger. And he did it during the holiday season thinking we wouldn’t notice.

🚨🚨 SCOOP @ms.now : The Department of Veteran Affairs has quietly implemented its abortion ban following a DOJ memo issued last week. This will affect 9 million veterans and their dependents, and has been a long time coming: It was outlined in Project 2025. Read/share 👇
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govDec 23(source)
The Supreme Court's ruling is clear: Trump needs to back off Chicago. This was never about law and order. It was always a wanna-be dictator's mad grab for power to crush dissent and intimidate innocent citizens. Trump's unlawful domestic deployments must come to an end.
