That would be a very popular position in the American public. And of course, it would be the mandate that we were given.

Former senators
We become an illegitimate body, especially with respect to our foreign policy powers, if we do not use our spending power to end the war.
I think we are seeing the president ready another devastating military campaign after the election, just as illegal as the first iteration was at a time where Americans are fed up with this war.
So Congress, under Republican control, passed a budget a few years back that provided $400 million for Ukraine. Now we didn't foresee Trump's intransigence coming, and he has refused to spend that money...
We all in the private sector and in the public sector were able to make such a stink, display such outrage about the denial of Starshield that he had to restore access.
Why is Donald Trump so committed to getting that deal done by the end of the year? Well, it's because, in my belief, the settlement will make billions for him and his friends.
That's why all of these things are happening at the same time – the denial of interceptors, the suspension of Starshield, the allowance for Russia to refill their treasury...
[Support for Ukraine] is about national security, but it's also about a Connecticut constituency and community that matters dearly to us…
Thank you for the outpouring of support my family and I have received over the last few days.
We need to end the rotten political system that allows individuals like Elon Musk to spend unlimited sums of money to elect candidates who turn around and vote to send your tax dollars to their corporations through huge federal contracts.
The proposed rule would also undermine the enforcement of civil and voting rights laws by eliminating the only appropriate data used for compliance.
As Americans struggle under historic debt loads, Trump’s regulators should protect American consumers from predatory practices.
Americans shouldn’t have to pay triple-digit interest rates on loans.
Your broad deregulatory agenda would compromise the integrity of our capital markets at a moment when Americans are already reeling from spiraling costs and unprecedented corruption in the Trump economy.
The result of this wholesale rollback of required disclosure requirements would almost certainly increase the level of fraud and raise the cost of capital.
Our capital markets thrive when more companies go public and go public earlier.
These proposals would ultimately erode the very framework of transparency and investor protections that makes our public markets so appealing to investors the world over.
While we share the goal of revitalizing the public markets and providing more companies with the opportunity to go public, the ill-conceived deregulatory measures you have taken will not revive or sustain a healthy IPO market.
Given these concerns, I’m seeking the release and preservation of all records related to the death of Mr. Curo-Churata, as well as a full, independent investigation into his death.
It was issued just three days after Ms. Ramirez was quoted extensively in the Washington Post about her husband’s death.
His death is unacceptable and both his family and the American people deserve answers as to how this could occur on your watch – including a full, independent investigation.
I cannot support it in its current form.
This bill undermines critical provisions that protect the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries – an economic and environmental lifeline for folks across our state.
This bill does not fully address the Trump Administration’s current efforts to block Maryland’s pending offshore wind project, which would lower energy costs for households across our state and create thousands of good-paying jobs.
