Today, I stood together with Rep. Jeffries, Senate Democrats, and House Democrats against the failure of Trump’s 100 days. Behind every Trump failure are Republicans in Congress—they are his enablers, his collaborators, his co-conspirators. We are going to keep working for the American people.
Senator Schumer speaks at a press conference on Trump's first 100 days in office, April 30, 2025.

BREAKING NEWS: We forced a vote to stop the damage Trump’s tariffs are doing to American families. But Senate Republicans just voted to keep the tariffs in place that are hurting families. They are Trump’s enablers, his collaborators, his co-conspirators.

Trump is everything the Founding Fathers worried about when they wrote the Constitution. He is assaulting freedom of the press, assaulting our education system, and expelling American citizens with no due process. We will keep fighting back.

The worst quarter in years. Businesses, families, and consumers are bracing themselves for Trump’s tariffs and it’s sending the economy into a tailspin.
A headline from NBC News reads: "Stocks slide after report shows economy shrank ahead of Trump's tariffs"

Make no mistake: Behind every one of Trump’s 100 days of failure are Republicans in Congress—they are his enablers, his collaborators, his co-conspirators. Trump cannot enact his agenda without Republicans in Congress aiding and abetting him at every turn.

Trump's first 100 days in office have been a failure. Failure on the economy Failure to lower costs Failure on foreign policy Failure on democracy Failure everywhere you look

"100 days, 100 harms to the environment, brought to you by none other than Donald Trump." @schumer.senate.gov discusses how Trump’s first 100 days have been the most harmful 100 days of any administration for climate, clean energy, public health, and communities. #100Days100Harms

Because we fought for it, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission voted to make this happen.

Senator Gillibrand, @repritchie.bsky.social, and I are pushing for the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission to swiftly finalize federal regulations that will make e-bikes safer and protect Americans from poorly-made batteries from China

This decline in GDP is a blaring warning to everyone that Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans’ failed MAGA experiment is killing our economy. Donald Trump must admit his failure and reverse course, and immediately fire his economic team.
Chuck Schumer@schumer.senate.govApr 30(source)
Americans who hired Donald Trump for the economy must be ready to fire him now. Today’s GDP number shows Donald Trump is running America the same way he ran his business—straight into the ground.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau fights to protect the middle class, but Trump and DOGE and Vought want to dismantle it. Blocking them from firing everyone is a good step. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/29/u...
