Remember how Trump vetoed the ENTIRE defense bill in 2020 because he objected to “rewriting history” by removing Confederate base names? Apparently he’s now fine with rewriting history.

On MLK, Jr. Day, Dr. King’s words continue to inspire me. Now more than ever, we must stand up against hate and injustice. It will be up to all of us to carry on his legacy and continue working for a brighter, more equal future.
I’m joining Face the Nation today to talk about the ceasefire deal in Gaza and President-elect Trump’s cabinet nominees—including Pete Hegseth to be Secretary of Defense. Tune in!
One of the most important provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act was allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices—cutting prescription costs for seniors. I’m glad the Biden Admin. announced the next 15 prescription drugs for negotiation. thehill.com/policy/healt...
Faith is an integral part of countless individuals’ lives—including my own. This National Religious Freedom Day, we recommit to upholding Americans’ Constitutional right to practice their respective faiths and disavow all faith-based discrimination.
Trump’s proposed plans to target nonpartisan federal workers threaten the services Virginians rely on. These workers must be hired based on their expertise, not their political party. That’s why I introduced a bill today to protect them from politically-motivated firings.
I’m thrilled $3.9 million in federal funding—made possible by the American Rescue Plan I helped pass—is coming to Disputanta to expand workforce training to support the Richmond-Petersburg Advanced Pharmaceutical Manufacturing cluster.

As a member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, I’m committed to ensuring that health care is affordable. That's why I introduced a bill to make enhanced premium tax credits for marketplace coverage permanent to prevent cost increases for Virginians.
Pete Hegseth hid his alleged sexual misconduct, ensuing criminal investigation, and private settlement he reached with his accuser while under consideration to lead the DOD.
He knew it would hurt his chances.
How can he be trusted to be honest with the President and public?
GOP members complaining about reduction of military standards while using a chart that misspells the word military!
Happy Korean American Day! Today recognizes the anniversary of Korean immigrants first arriving in the U.S. 122 years later, I’m proud to support VA’s incredible Korean American community, including by introducing legislation to help reunite families separated by the Korean War.
Thanks to legislation I helped pass, over $12 million in federal investments is coming to VA airports, building on over $207 million for airport upgrades I helped secure in '24. These resources are good for our economy and help Virginians get where they need to go. www.dcnewsnow.com/news/local-n...
My reading list is full after receiving these books for the holidays!
This week, I introduced legislation to grant statehood to D.C. Virginia’s 700,000 neighbors in D.C. are subjected to taxation without representation, and that’s unfair. All Americans deserve to have their voices heard in our democracy.
2024 ended on an economic high note: the final jobs report under President Biden reveals a strong 256,000 jobs were added to the economy in December. I will keep working to build on this economic growth in the years ahead.
I'm gratified that following Richmond resident James Rudisill’s legal fight, the VA has expanded GI education benefits for over 1 million veterans. I’m thankful to Rudisill, whose case I supported, for championing this issue and changing the lives of veterans for the better.
Did you miss your initial Medicare open enrollment period? Don’t worry, you have until March 31 to sign up during Medicare’s general enrollment period. Check in with your local VICAP counselor to learn about your options. www.vda.virginia.gov/vicap.htm
I traveled across Southwest Virginia to hear about Hurricane Helene-related challenges and pushed hard for disaster aid resources in the recent government funding bill. Glad over $46 million of it is coming to VA to address housing and economic needs. www.kaine.senate.gov/press-releas...
It’s past time to end the conflict in Sudan. The U.S.’s announcement of sanctions on RSF leader General Hemedti for committing genocide in Darfur is a step in the right direction. I will keep pushing to stop the violence and secure a democratic future for all Sudanese people.
