"The longer you are in an authoritarian state, it becomes more and more entrenched. And so we have to fight it in every possible way."
Thank you @merkley.senate.gov for ringing the alarm bells and calling on us all to unite and fight back to defend our democracy 🔔🔔🔔
Thank you to everyone who tuned into this speech, and who is with me in this fight.
We're at a perilous moment, and we must continue to resist authoritarianism with all we have.
Thank you to everyone who was with me on the floor: Team Merkley staff, Capitol Police, floor staff, Senate pages, door keepers, parliamentarians, presiding officers, and my colleagues who took time out of their day to ask important questions.

Senator Merkley has held the Senate floor all night—and he’s still going. He’s holding the floor for our healthcare. Our economy. Our rights. Our democracy.
Tune in here: www.youtube.com/live/bE37g0m...
This is what's at stake.

Trump's chaotic tariffs and the Republicans' Big, Ugly BETRAYAL are stretching small businesses to the max.

With the Republican Big, Beautiful BETRAYAL of a bill, Main Street is now Pain Street for small businesses.

With Republicans it's always the same strategy: Families lose, billionaires win.

Trump's attacks on the free press aren't an isolated incident.
They're a constant barrage designed to push us further into an authoritarian strongman state.

The President is not a king.
The law is not a suggestion.
The Constitution is not optional.

It takes courage to stand up for what’s right — something Republicans clearly don’t have.
Kudos to my friend Jeff for doing the damn thing!
This is really what it comes down to.
I'm holding the Senate floor to say HELL NO to Trump destroying our We the People government.
