Today as millions of Americans rally across this country for No Kings Day: I proudly marched side-by-side with labor unions and so many more of our fellow citizens in NYC.  We have no dictators in America. And we won’t allow Trump to keep eroding our democracy.
On No Kings Day, Senator Schumer marches side-by-side with labor unions and more in NYC, October 18, 2025.

I say to my fellow Americans this No Kings Day: Do not let Donald Trump and Republicans intimidate you into silence. That's what they want to do. They're afraid of the truth.  Speak out, use your voice, and exercise your right to free speech.
Today’s No Kings rallies are an affirmation of what America is all about. We are a democracy. We have no kings, despite the fact that Trump has even said he wants to become one.
Instead of working to reopen the government and fix your healthcare: Donald “Law and Order” Trump spent today letting a convicted fraudster off the hook. That was his priority.
Speaker Johnson: What are you hiding? You’re more interested in covering up what happened at the Epstein Mansion than protecting Americans’ health care.
Look at this chart. These are the massive healthcare costs facing rural families in Elise Stefanik’s district in Upstate NY. If Republicans refuse to address the healthcare crisis they’ve created, it will be millions of American families in their districts who suffer the most.
A graphic shows the $1396.96 increase per month in health insurance premiums from 2025 to 2026 for the Excellus Bronze Secure Plus 3 Expanded Plan.
Sickening. Revolting. Vile. This makes you want to throw up. This is the kind of garbage that the worst kind of people say when they think nobody is watching. And where are Republican leaders from Trump on down condemning these comments swiftly and unequivocally!? I’m waiting to hear it.
A headline from POLITICO reads: "‘I love Hitler’: Leaked messages expose Young Republicans’ racist chat"
Trump’s policies are devastating health care in rural communities. And now, Republicans have shut down the government instead of fixing the health care crisis they’ve created.
A headline from ABC News reads: "'It can be a loss of life': First responders detail the deadly cost of rural hospital closures -
Rural hospitals are vanishing, and Medicaid cuts could accelerate the collapse."
