Powerful men abused and exploited underage girls, and the Trump Administration is trying to cover it up.
We need to pass @lujan.senate.gov’s and my Epstein Files Transparency Act NOW to release the files!

A new name is not going to fix ripping health care away from 15 MILLION people to fund tax breaks for billionaires and billionaire corporations.
Reposted bySenator Jeff Merkley
What's on brand is Trump thinking a shiny, new name will make Americans forget that Republicans cut health care for 15 million people.
No matter what they call it, Trump and Republicans betrayed working families.
And that can't be rebranded.
www.politico.com/live-updates...
Hint for Republicans: the name isn’t the issue.
It’s the fact that you’re selling Americans out—kicking 15+ million people off their health care, jacking up the cost of utility bills, and taking food off of the plates of hungry kids.
That’s the issue.
Everyone agrees that trucks are far more affordable and efficient in delivering food and medicine.
But Israel has placed so many obstacles on the delivery of aid by trucks, Jordan is using airdrops to help address the starvation.
We need many more trucks entering Gaza — and we need them NOW.
@vanhollen.senate.gov and I visited an airfield in Jordan, where we learned about efforts to get badly needed food into Gaza through airdrops.

As the humanitarian disaster in Gaza continues, we cannot look away from rising Israeli settler violence in the West Bank.
@merkley.senate.gov and I met families of Americans killed there and visited a town subjected to attacks. Illegal settlements and violence MUST end.
This move gets an “F.” Blocking international diplomats from participating in U.N. debates damages American leadership in the world and undermines the ability of the U.N. to serve as a forum for debating and addressing challenging world issues.
HUGE win for public health in Oregon.
I rallied with @wyden.senate.gov, @repvalhoyle.bsky.social, @oregonnursesassoc.bsky.social, and community members because we need to make sure patients have access to local, quality care when they need it.

The message @merkley.senate.gov and I heard from the hostage families we met with in Tel Aviv was as simple as it was powerful: bring them home and end the war NOW.
They told us that Netanyahu has prioritized his political survival over the lives of their loved ones.
Reposted bySenator Jeff Merkley
I visited Kerem Shalom, one of the two main crossings between Israel and Gaza, where @merkley.senate.gov and I pointed out that the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's delivery system is fatally flawed.
People are starving. The Netanyahu government must let more food into Gaza NOW.

🚨Merkley Blasts Trump Administration for Invoking Illegal Maneuver to Claw Back Bipartisan, Congressionally Appropriated Foreign Aid
www.budget.senate.gov/ranking-memb...
Let’s be clear: the Trump Administration arresting people who are actively fighting wildfires is a cruel and unacceptable act that puts our communities in real danger.
Firefighters are putting their lives on the line to protect us—we owe them our thanks and respect.
A “pocket rescission” is the President canceling a funding law without Congress changing the law.
We live in a republic, not a dictatorship, so this is unconstitutional.
Stop the dictatorship.
Join the resistance.

@merkley.senate.gov and I were just in Israel to discuss the situation in Gaza and press to end the war and return all the hostages.
We visited a World Food Program site in Israel with enough food to feed everyone in Gaza for 3 weeks. The Netanyahu government's weaponization of hunger must stop.
My heart is with Annunciation Catholic School and all of Minneapolis in the wake of this horrific shooting.
Every child should be safer at school, full stop.
I’ll keep fighting for the gun safety reforms we need to keep our communities safe.
Reminder: Republicans voted to gut health care for more than 15 MILLION AMERICANS.
A YES on the BIG UGLY BETRAYAL was a YES on slashing Medicaid and the ACA.
It was a YES on raising insurance premiums.
And it was a YES on closing rural hospitals and nursing homes.
Republicans swore up and down that they’d protect Medicaid.
That was a lie—their BIG UGLY BETRAYAL bill slashed Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act and will rip health care away from more than 15 million Americans.
