I’m in Ukraine today in the wake of Russia’s horrific Palm Sunday attack in Sumy that killed dozens of innocent civilians, including children, to show my support for our partnership against Putin’s illegal invasion.

I’m relieved Governor Shapiro and his family are safe after this frightening arson attack on the first night of Passover and am thankful for the swift action of first responders.
It’s our responsibility to make sure our veterans get the care they need.
I’ve been sounding the alarm about how Trump and Elon’s hiring freeze at the VA and plans to cut tens of thousands of VA jobs—many of which are held by veterans—are a huge mistake.

As Passover begins this evening, I want to wish everyone gathering around Seder tables in Virginia and around the world a joyful holiday. Chag Pesach Sameach!
Happy National Submarine Day! Virginia plays a critical role in building submarines for our nation’s Navy. I’m grateful to the shipbuilders and men and women who serve on these submarines. You make Virginia proud every day!
On World Parkinson’s Day, I’m thinking of all who’ve struggled with the condition. I’m glad that last year President Biden signed into law a bill I cosponsored that combats Parkinson’s and related conditions. I’ll keep working to support research efforts to end Parkinson’s for good.
From tariffs announced on uninhabited islands to rates changing near daily, the situation with Trump’s new national sales tax is changing so fast it’s hard to keep up. In case you missed it, here’s where we stand and my plan to challenge the biggest tax hike on American families in history:
Trump’s global trade war has tanked consumer sentiment and will raise costs for American families—Congress must pass my legislation to stop Trump’s senseless global tariffs, which amount to a new national sales tax.

Trump's tariff “pause” is not much of a pause. The tariffs still in effect are the largest tax hike on Americans in over 100 years and will cost households $4,000+ per year. I’m still pushing for my bill to reassert Congress’ role in international trade and challenge Trump’s global tariffs.
Today in 1968, President Johnson signed the Fair Housing Act into law, prohibiting housing discrimination. As a former civil rights attorney, I’m committed to continuing the fight for equitable access to affordable housing and stamping out discrimination.
There is so much more Congress can—and must—do to reduce gun violence. I’m glad to join my colleagues in introducing bills to strengthen regulations on semiautomatic firearms and outlaw modification devices that can turn legal firearms into tools for mass shootings.
Hard-working American workers and their families deserve a tax break. That’s why I’m glad to help introduce bills to nearly triple the Earned Income Tax Credit for workers who don’t have children and permanently expand the Child Tax Credit for those who do.
My statement with @markwarner.bsky.social on the latest safety incident at DCA:
Briefly pausing tariffs doesn't fix Trump’s senseless plan for a new national sales tax. It only creates more chaos and uncertainty for businesses and families.
The Constitution gave Congress, not the president, the power to issue taxes for a reason. We need to take it back.
Happy National Library Week! As a life-long reader, I’m thankful for the special role libraries play in our communities. This week, I hope you’ll join me in celebrating them.
My statement with @markwarner.bsky.social and Congressman Griffith on the formal approval of the Major Disaster Declaration request we advocated for related to the February winter storms that caused widespread flooding and damage to Southwest Virginia:
Peer support specialists—folks with lived experience with a mental health condition or substance use disorder who are certified to assist those in recovery—provide crucial support but often face employment barriers. My bill will address those barriers, helping expand access to this treatment.
I’m disturbed by news of the shooting in Spotsylvania and am praying for the victims and their families, as well as the law enforcement officers who are on the scene. I will be monitoring closely.
Trump inherited an economy that was the envy of the world. But in a few short months, bad policies like Trump’s tariffs have caused chaos and increased the risk of a recession. I’m going to keep working to prevent economic disaster.
