Leading efforts to offer up hope to patients & families who need bone marrow & cord blood transplants.
My bipartisan bill with Sen. Tim Scott would strengthen research, boost investments, & renew programs that help people w/ blood disorders & diseases find suitable donors.
Democrats have been clear all along. We want to immediately fund TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard, CISA & core DHS functions while negotiations continue to rein in ICE & CBP.
Senate Republicans have blocked us ELEVEN times.
Pres. Trump thinks mail-in voting is fine when he does it. He just doesn’t want you to have the same option.
Pres. Trump basically confessed on social media that he’ll continue denying paychecks for federal workers & forcing long lines at airports unless Congress enacts his unconstitutional so-called SAVE Act that gives Trump unprecedented control over U.S. elections.
As #Ramadan comes to a close, we join with people of all faiths in sending wishes of peace, hope, & togetherness to our Muslim friends & neighbors celebrating Eid al-Fitr. #EidMubarak to you and yours!
The so-called SAVE Act debate comes down to this:
Democrats are fighting to secure our elections & uphold the Constitution.
Republicans are actively cutting election security safeguards & trying to give Trump unprecedented power over elections in all 50 states.
NINE times.
So far, Senate Republicans have rejected NINE Dem bills to pay the Coast Guard, TSA, CISA, FEMA & other critical DHS functions while negotiations continue to rein in ICE & CBP.
Once again, Republicans blocked Dems’ attempt to immediately pay TSA workers.
As GOP play games that are negatively impacting travel & forcing long lines at our airports, Democrats won’t stop trying to pay our hardworking TSA agents.
UPDATE: For the seventh time, Republicans voted to block TSA agents, FEMA personnel, & other federal employees from getting their paychecks.
Republicans must stop blocking funding for TSA agents. GOP’s political dysfunction is negatively impacting air travel. Today, Republicans will have another opportunity to join Democrats to fully fund TSA, pay TSA agents, protect travelers, & keep America’s airports moving.
But Pres. Trump & Republicans are refusing:
❌No warrantless arrests
❌No masked federal agents
❌Protections for polling places
❌Mandatory training
❌Commonsense use-of-force reforms
❌Accountability
2/2
Dems will fund TSA, Coast Guard, & key DHS functions tonight. Republicans won’t.
Dems want to rein in ICE & CBP and keep the rest of DHS fully funded. 1/2
Happy St. Patrick's Day! A day when everyone is invited to wear green; celebrate fun & community; and highlight Irish tradition, pride, & connection.
Cheers to generations of Irish immigrants whose perseverance & contributions have enriched our great American story!
St. Joseph’s Day is coming up (March 19!) & the Zeppole Spotlight is shining bright.
