Former senators
Donald Trump campaigned for office, going out every day, promising that he would lower costs for American families on day one.
While providing states with relief for the SNAP cost-shift remains a top priority, we simultaneously remain committed to ensuring the success of specialty crop growers in our states and throughout the nation.
We respectfully urge the Commission to evaluate these renewal applications based solely on the factual record and the governing statutory standard, free from political considerations.
While it remains to be seen whether Jay Clayton will stand up to protect election integrity and national security, I will continue to fight back against attacks on our democracy and hold the Trump Administration accountable.
So far, he has failed to show the backbone needed to stand up to Donald Trump and protect the integrity of our elections.
When given the chance to restore some public trust in our national security leadership and our democracy, Jay Clayton refused to answer simple questions about who won the 2020 election like the other rubber-stamp election deniers in…
Acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte and former Director Tulsi Gabbard abused our intelligence community to feed President Trump’s election conspiracy theories and lay the groundwork for future election interference.
Federal workers and their families should not suffer when Congress has not finished the yearly appropriations work.
The U.S. Postal Service has no role in deciding who can vote. The Supreme Court should reject President Trump’s latest demand to allow him to interfere with the ability of Washingtonians to vote by mail. It’s unconstitutional and with…
The Administration is using the Supreme Court's mistaken ruling on Temporary Protected Status to strip legal status from thousands of law-abiding Haitians nationwide, including many community members in Spokane.

Delawareans work hard, but too many are struggling to afford essentials, and President Trump’s policies are making the situation worse.
I will continue vigorous oversight to ensure the Intelligence Community remains focused on one mission above all else: keeping the American people safe from harm.
The Intelligence Community is at its most effective when leaders allow intelligence professionals to follow the facts wherever they lead and provide policymakers with objective, independent analysis free from political influence.
As our country faces down growing threats from around the world, the country needs a DNI whose first loyalty is to the facts.
The only option that should not be an option is to do nothing. We need to do something.
Congress is being irresponsible, destructively irresponsible, if we don’t address Social Security.
If Congress does nothing in six years by law, benefits going to 75 million Americans and more at that time will be cut by almost 29%.
I’m pleased to say that there’s new momentum on both sides, Republicans and Democrats, to find a solution and preserve benefits for those who have spent their lifetime earning them.
Survivors and witnesses in my home state and across the country deserve better.
That’s the kind of unforced, unnecessary harm that should disqualify someone from a job built on discretion and judgement.
