A horrific act of gun violence took six innocent lives and wounded @gabbygiffords.bsky.social 15 years ago. We honor those we lost and uplift powerful voices like Gabby’s for change. Her courage inspires me every day and I’m proud to fight alongside her and millions of Americans to end gun violence.

I just voted to move forward @kaine.senate.gov resolution to stop Trump’s illegal war in Venezuela. Republicans blocked it in November, but the truth is out. It’s Venezuela today and it could be Cuba or Greenland tomorrow. We must draw the line. No more wars for oil.

I am sending my prayers and deepest condolences to the family and colleagues of Uxbridge Police Officer Stephen LaPorta, who was tragically killed while responding to a vehicle crash yesterday morning. Officer LaPorta’s sacrifice and his legacy of service in his community will not be forgotten.
A police officer who was helping a motorist died early Wednesday in a collision in Massachusetts https://www.wcvb.com/article/route-146-uxbridge-massachusetts-crash-police-cruiser/69932695
Donald Trump's decision to leave the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change does nothing to lower costs for Americans. Climate change isn't just dangerous—it's expensive. Not to mention this further erodes US leadership in the midst of an illegal war for oil in Venezuela.
This briefing left us with more questions than answers—the only answer we have is one they didn’t give us. Why invade Venezuela? It’s all for Big Oil’s private profit. Americans are paying for the foreseeable future for this Admin to do oil companies’ dirty work.
Senator Smith is right. ICE must immediately withdraw from Minneapolis to prevent further escalation. I am horrified by eyewitness accounts of masked ICE agents shooting someone in the head and killing them.
While Trump kept the American people in the dark on his plans for Venezuela, Big Oil got a heads up “before and after” the attack. The public deserves to know if they’re footing the bill while oil companies reap profits. Chevron, ExxonMobil, and ConocoPhillips must answer.
Trump has no plan to make health care affordable for the American people. He’s forcing families to spend more on health care, groceries, and electricity—all while Big Oil CEOs get richer with an illegal war with Venezuela.
Trump built his economic agenda on an illegal power grab. Now, the Supreme Court has an opportunity to send people their money back, starting with the small businesses that paid over $47 billion in Trump tariffs this year.
Stephen Miller’s asinine assertion that the United States could take over Greenland isn’t just ridiculous, it’s dangerous. Stephen Miller must resign.
My statement on the five year anniversary of the January 6th insurrection.
Trump's reckless attack on Venezuela has left Massachusetts families trapped after their holiday travels. I am keeping a close eye on the Department of Transportation and the airlines to ensure they are working to safely get families home without delay or financial hardship.
RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine crusade makes "America First" in reversing decades of progress to keep kids healthy. Today's announcement means more children and families will suffer under Trump and RFK's Make America Sick Agenda.
Who wins from Trump’s illegal war for oil on Venezuela? Big Oil Billionaires. Who loses? The rest of us. The Venezuelan people deserve better, and the American people deserve transparency. I’m demanding answers.
