Millions of Americans are being crushed by housing costs.
Donald Trump called their crisis “a big yawn”—then refused to sign the most significant bipartisan housing bill in decades.
His priorities couldn’t be clearer: higher costs for families and more power for himself.

He is gutting the independent agency that certifies voting systems and helps election officials run secure elections.
Senate Democrats will fight this power grab at every turn. The American people—not Donald Trump—will decide the 2026 election.
Donald Trump said Republicans should “take over the voting.” Today, he took another step toward doing exactly that.
Firing every remaining member of the bipartisan Election Assistance Commission months before the midterms is a brazen attempt to seize control of our elections before a vote is cast.
They let Trump waste nearly $1 billion in taxpayer dollars to retrofit and operate his luxury jet and yet it’s still not secure.
When the Senate returns, we must pass the Presidential Airlift Security Act and ensure that not another cent goes toward maintaining Trump’s national security nightmare.
That’s why I introduced the Presidential Airlift Security Act, which would prohibit the use of any foreign plane to be utilized as Air Force One.
Republicans refused to join our effort to block taxpayer funding for the jet.
A year ago, I warned that this $400 million Qatari jet was not simply the largest, most corrupt foreign bribe to an American president in history – it was also a grave national security risk.
Trump’s shameless self-enrichment has turned into a serious national security threat. His rampant, reckless, and rotten corruption comes at a real cost to our safety and Americans’ bank accounts.
There must be a full, independent, and transparent investigation into the shooting that led to Lorenzo Salgado Araujo’s death.
ICE has routinely unleashed chaos and violence on our streets.
Democrats will keep fighting for reforms to rein in ICE and end the violence.

Republicans ended the ACA tax credits.
The result? A health care affordability crisis with no end in sight.
When Democrats take back the Senate, lowering your health care costs will be a top priority.

Donald Trump’s rambling, unhinged, confused performance this morning was an embarrassment.
Serving as Putin's mouthpiece, undermining our allies, and cheerleading for war — that's Trump’s vision for our country.
In November, Americans will have a chance to take us down a different path.
Donald Trump’s presidency is defined by destruction, chaos, illegal wars, and rising costs.
He never had a serious plan for stopping his war.
Senate Democrats remain united in our efforts to end this illegal war immediately and permanently.
This is an important win. But we know Trump will do whatever he can to rig the elections and that his attack dog at the DOJ, Todd Blanche, will do his bidding.
I will continue to lead Democrats in using every avenue to stop these anti-democratic efforts at every turn.
Trump DOJ’s campaign to subvert the election took another hit today, this time by a Trump-appointed judge. He found that the Trump DOJ’s staggeringly broad subpoena would “chill participation in future elections.”
I will NOT support a Farm Bill that doesn’t protect SNAP funding.
A Farm Bill that abandons hungry families is wholly unacceptable.
As we celebrate today, we must remember who & what make our country great
These people are a shining example
Trump has his vision of American values, but we'd be better off taking our cues from this group. Happy 250 America, may the next 250 bring justice & prosperity for all

Happy 250th, America!
God bless America, and I hope everyone has a wonderful day celebrating with their friends and family.
The founding fathers called America God’s noble experiment. I believe in all three words to this day: we are one nation under God, we have clung to noble ideas for longer than any other nation, and we are an experiment always changing, trying to make ourselves better.
I’m disturbed to learn that there was yet another potential act of violence in a house of worship—at the Muslim Center in Queens. I’m relieved he was subdued by a congregant before any harm occurred. Islamophobia is unacceptable, and we must continue to reject hatred and bigotry in every form.
The One Big Beautiful Bill is one year old.
So is the health care crisis it created.
5 million people lost coverage. More than 1,000 hospitals, clinics, and nursing homes face cuts or closure. Over 20 million families face skyrocketing premiums.
New York counties are scrambling for funding to keep SNAP alive after the Big Ugly Bill made the largest program cuts in history.
Now, the GOP is pushing a Farm Bill that doesn’t even mention SNAP.
I will not support a Farm Bill that abandons hungry families. It's a nonstarter.
