We can’t allow our government to revoke someone’s legal status for exercising their freedom of speech.
The Trump Administration’s targeting of Mahmoud Khalil is unconstitutional and needs to end.
Since 1980, NOAA has tracked the frequency of billion-dollar climate disasters in our communities. But earlier this year, President Trump axed this critical service.
I’m leading a bill to reverse Trump’s decision to defund the agency's database that helps us become more resilient.
If Republicans don’t extend ACA tax credits by the end of the year, insurance premiums will skyrocket.
We shouldn’t force folks to choose between paying more or going uninsured. Republicans need to extend program's funding.
His FCC Chairman coerces ABC to pull Jimmy Kimmel's show.
He sues news outlets that publish inconvenient truths.
He bans reporters who ask him tough questions.
He deports students protesting his policies.
President Trump is waging an all-out war on free speech.
This government funding package will be one of the last opportunities to extend tax credits for affordable health care before they expire.
Republicans will force millions of Americans to pay hundreds and even thousands of dollars more every year if they don't extend them.
This week, I’m joining Senator Tim Kaine to introduce a resolution to block President Trump’s tariffs on Canada.
Small businesses and farmers shouldn’t suffer because Trump wants to start a trade war with our allies.
The Federal Reserve is supposed to make choices based on what's best for our economy, not politics.
But Republicans confirmed President Trump's economic advisor to the Board—even though he’s refused to resign from his White House job.
It violates of the Board's independence.
This is an attempt to silence the press.
Editors of smaller news outlet across the country will see this and think twice about publishing stories about President Trump out of fear of being buried in legal fees.
This is a sham.
Republicans cut $150 billion from rural hospitals in the Big Beautiful Bill, and hundreds are at risk of closing around the country.
Now they’re trying to save face by pretending they’re giving more funding when in reality it’s a drop in the bucket.
President Trump's use of the National Guard in cities isn't about keeping folks safe, it's about trying to seize control.
If he really wanted to help, he wouldn't block police department funding, cut addiction treatment programs, and oppose gun violence prevention legislation.
Right now, 22 million people in this country rely on federal tax credits to access affordable health care, including nearly 31,000 Vermonters. But these discounts are set to expire at the end of the year.
Republicans need to work with Democrats to extend this support before it’s too late.
Two weeks out from WEOC 2025!

The Constitution was written to avoid a concentration of power in one branch of government, but Republicans are ceding Congress’ power to President Trump.
I’m horrified by the recent terrorist attack in Jerusalem that killed six civilians. Violence aimed at civilians is always unacceptable, evil, and must be condemned by all.
This cycle of horror must end for the sake of the hostages and the innocent families in Gaza.
Today, we remember the thousands of innocent lives lost on September 11, 2001.
We also honor the first responders, doctors, and everyday heroes who saved lives and helped our country heal. Their service reminds us of the strength of America.
We will never forget.
Right now, President Trump is using the D.C. National Guard for an expensive political stunt instead of focusing on the issues people care about.
That’s why I joined @vanhollen.senate.gov's bill to end his power grab and give D.C. control over their National Guard and police department.
I’m pleased to announce that Mirna Valerio will be the keynote speaker at this year’s Women’s Economic Opportunity Conference.
She's a best-selling author, ultramarathoner, and Vermonter.

This is what happens when we have a Health and Human Services Secretary who undermines the importance of vaccines during a growing measles outbreak and the rise of a new COVID-19 strain.
This isn’t making America healthy, it’s moving us toward a health crisis.
