It’s International Women’s Day! Today, we celebrate the countless women around the world whose fight for equality has made the world a better place. Together, we must continue their fight for equal rights and equal protection under the law.
Today is the 61st anniversary of Bloody Sunday, when Alabama state troopers violently attacked peaceful protesters marching from Selma to Montgomery for the right to vote. The protesters' courage in the face of danger continues to inspire me and countless others.

Happy Women’s History Month! This month, I’m thinking of the generations of incredible women, known and unknown, whose intellect, courage, and resilience have built the world today. We need to keep working together to create a more equitable world for the generations of women to come.
My statement slamming the Senate’s failure to pass my bipartisan War Powers Resolution that would have stopped President Donald Trump’s illegal, unnecessary war with Iran:
“No one is disputing that Iran has been a bad actor. But the civilian leadership of our country owes it to our servicemembers and their families that we will only send them into harm’s way if it is absolutely necessary—and that if we do, we will have clear objectives and a plan that has been fully thought through,” said Senator Kaine, a member of the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations Committees. “The President and his Administration’s changing and contradictory statements underscore that they rushed into a war without thinking of the consequences that this will have for the American people, our economy, and stability in the region.
“My colleagues’ failure to pass our bipartisan War Powers Resolution adds to a dangerous pattern of Congress ceding our constitutional duties to an increasingly erratic President. How are we supposed to look our constituents in the eyes and send our sons and daughters into war if we aren’t willing to take this most solemn responsibility seriously? I pray for the families whose loved ones will never come home and hope that this war will not turn into another endless conflict.”
Senate Republicans blocked my War Powers Resolution to end Trump’s unnecessary and illegal war with Iran. But I’m not giving up—this is too important. Stay tuned.
Warning American citizens to evacuate over a dozen countries three days into this war, when commercial flights are already shut down, demonstrates the Trump Administration’s lack of planning or coordination.
Screenshot of a warning to Americans to "depart now via commercial means due to serious safety risks" from Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, United Arab Emirates and Yemen.
Disregarding these deaths as just “the way it is” is a slap in the face to our men and women in uniform and anyone with a loved one in the military. He should be ashamed.
Daily Beast article with the headline: "Trump Callously Dismisses More Military Deaths as ‘the Way It Is’"
The American people don’t want more war. Six servicemembers have already died amidst Trump’s illegal attack on Iran. Trump’s response? Announcing he doesn’t care what Americans want. He would needlessly risk more lives with boots on the ground anyway. nypost.com/2026/03/02/u...
