Last year, 21,000 pounds of fentanyl came from Mexico. From Canada? New reporting shows the actual figure could be as low as 0.74 pounds.
Why is Trump leveling the same tariffs on both countries?
Reposted bySenator Tim Kaine
Democrats are united and we are fighting Donald Trump’s reckless and huge tax on American families by forcing a vote to overturn these costly, reckless tariffs.
Proud of Cory for holding the floor for 23 hours and counting calling out Trump’s destabilizing policies, including his reckless new taxes. I was glad to join Cory on the floor and look forward to forcing a vote tomorrow on my legislation to challenge Trump’s trade war with Canada.
When I was a fair housing lawyer, I saw how affordable housing access influenced families' ability to achieve stability. This National Fair Housing Month—and always—I’m committed to tackling housing shortages and high prices and working to protect our most vulnerable from housing discrimination.
Good news: with $25 million in federal funding I helped secure, we broke ground today on a new Virginia National Guard Army Aviation Support Facility in Sandston. This new facility will help prepare our Guardsmen for their many missions at home and abroad.
On Transgender Day of Visibility and every day, my message to trans Virginians and people around the world: I’m glad you’re here. You deserve to feel safe and celebrated, and I’m going to keep standing up for you.
I visited Reservoir Distillery in Richmond to learn more about how Trump’s tariffs hurt Virginia businesses. So this week, I’m forcing a vote to undo Trump’s proposed sales tax on Canadian goods.
The Trump Admin’s mass budget cuts are hurting Virginians—layoffs at the Virginia Department of Health are now imminent, threatening the health and well-being of our communities. www.axios.com/local/richmo...
Wishing Eid Mubarak to Muslim communities in the Commonwealth and around the world. As families and communities gather, I hope this season brings peace, light, and unity.
My statement with @markwarner.bsky.social on President Trump’s executive order attacking collective bargaining rights for federal workers:
I’m proud of the brave educators and parents fighting for the Department of Education and for our students and teachers who depend on ED’s resources and protections. Education is critical to our economy, and I stand with all fighting to protect it. www.highereddive.com/news/aaup-af...
President Trump is abusing emergency powers to impose tariffs on Canada that will raise prices for American families and alienate one of our closest allies — so I’m forcing a vote to challenge him.

My statement on the Trump Administration’s mass firing of federal workers from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services:
Yet another way the Trump Administration is hurting our veterans: wearing down the VA Veterans Crisis Line operators. Unacceptable.
www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...
To the federal workers who have lost their jobs or otherwise been impacted by the Trump-Musk Administration’s attacks on the civil service: I want to hear your stories.
Please go to my website at kaine.senate.gov/federalworkers to write to me.
Great to visit Framatome in Lynchburg last week to learn more about their work to power communities and train workers to operate nuclear energy facilities. I’m committed to blocking Trump and congressional Republicans’ efforts to cut clean energy tax credits that could curb this innovation.
On National Medal of Honor Day, we recognize the over 3,500 servicemembers who have achieved the highest military award for valor. I’m glad my bill to build a monument recognizing their bravery and sacrifices was signed into law. I’ll continue to do all I can to honor servicemembers and veterans.
Social security is a lifeline for seniors, disabled people, and millions of other Americans. Inability to access these services isn’t just annoying, it can be life-threatening. We must focus on strengthening the Social Security Admin, not dismantling it. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
I’m demanding answers.
Trump Administration officials' decision to use a commercial and unclassified app to discuss military strikes in Yemen—while including a random person in the chat and not noticing—demonstrates a profound carelessness for the lives of servicemembers conducting operations against the Houthis.
In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
