Money should not buy power. This shameful decision is totally out of step with the American People, who are sick & tired of greedy corporations & wealthy elites deciding who represents them in Congress.
Elections should be decided by the American people—not the rich & powerful.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court just struck down another campaign finance limit, opening a flood of GOP money in the midterms.
The change is likely to benefit Republicans, who brought the case and rely more on large donors.

Rarely does this MAGA-packed Supreme Court grow a pair and stand up to Trump. Thankfully, today, they reaffirmed a basic truth: if you’re born in this country, you are a citizen of this country.
A big win for the Constitution, the rule of law, and our fundamental freedoms.

We know this Pride felt different for many in the LGBTQI+ community. As we round out Pride Month, our Chair, with several of our Co-Chairs & Vice Chairs, wanted to send a message to LGBTQI+ Americans:
We'll always have your back, during Pride Month—and year-round.

Trump says housing affordability is “unimportant.”
What does he think matters? His insane attempt to relitigate the 2020 election with his phony claims of widespread voter fraud.
What the hell is wrong with him?
It’s shameful that our country has to be called out by the UN for being complicit in the deaths of people in custody. We should be a defender of human rights, not an abuser.
If we cannot uphold human rights at home, we forfeit our moral credibility to condemn abuses elsewhere.
“We do a Watergate twice a day” is a crazy way to confess your own corruption…
Trump and his MAGA majority on the Supreme Court ended TPS as part of their cruel war on LEGAL immigration. They’re tearing families apart & robbing communities of hardworking people.
We’ll fight back with everything we’ve got.
The Supreme Court just made it easier for chemical companies to poison our families & farmers with cancer causing pesticides like glyphosate. Americans will die because of this horrific decision that puts corporate wealth ahead of our country’s health.
This radical MAGA court’s horrific decision to let Trump strip their protections is both immoral and just plain stupid. It’s beyond time to reform the court and stop them from stripping away everything that makes America great.
They registered with the government after LEGALLY seeking asylum here, they passed background checks, and they paid fees. They contribute to our economy, and work essential jobs in critical industries that are already facing crushing labor shortages.
Folks with Temporary Protected Status are seeking refuge from extreme political violence & regional instability. (🧵)
Ruth López is a human rights defender wrongly imprisoned by a dictatorial Salvadoran government cracking down on civil society and rule of law. I join Senators @vanhollen.senate.gov and @kaine.senate.gov in asking Secretary Rubio to advocate for her release and assure she gets medical care.
My thoughts are with all those in Venezuela affected by the two devastating earthquakes yesterday. I welcome the US government’s promise of search and rescue teams and urge robust relief aid. Venezuelans have suffered so much and we owe them our humanitarian support.
In Trump’s America, if you look at this failed reflecting pool paint job the wrong way, you get a 10 year prison sentence. But if you’re convicted of violently beating cops during a failed coup, you get a presidential pardon.
If Americans can’t afford basic necessities like housing, healthcare, and food, we don’t have a country.
Trump’s own “voter fraud” sham investigation quietly disbanded after finding no widespread fraud. Our elections are among the world’s most secure.
AI data centers are using tons of electricity & water, driving up costs while workers get left behind & Big Tech reaps record profits.
Proud to join @aoc.bsky.social & @sanders.senate.gov in calling for an AI data center moratorium until Congress sets standards & guardrails to protect Americans.
