Voting rights are preservative of all other rights. They are the context in which all other debates take place. Democracy is the very house we live in. It is the whole game.

I’m all for manufacturing jobs, but these tariffs are raising costs, and everybody seems to know that except the Trump administration.
People all over Georgia know that, businesses know that. And I’m asking you, I guess the answer to that is no. There’s no peer evaluated rigorous study refuting this.
Donald Trump promised, ‘on day one, we will end inflation and make America affordable again.’ Instead, he’s made life more expensive for everybody.
You and the president still seem to be in denial that tariffs have raised prices—a fact that study after study confirms and that is just basic common sense.
After years of effort, my bill to cap insulin at $35 a month for everyone is one step closer to becoming law,
It is past time for the EPA to stand up on the side of our families, communities, and local municipalities as they navigate this new landscape.
Small, rural communities have been left to negotiate on their own with multi-million-dollar corporations whose well-staffed legal teams may negotiate dozens of deals at a time.
For too long, too many people in underserved communities have been forced to fight harder for the care they need—facing higher barriers, fewer resources, and a health care system that too often fails them.
As The Trump regime and Congressional Republicans continue to attack healthcare and diversity initiatives from all fronts, working to ensure healthcare is affordable and accessible to all has never been more relevant.
Our elections belong to the voters, and I am fighting to protect every eligible voter’s right to cast a ballot freely and sending a warning that anyone who interferes with our democracy will be held accountable — sooner or later.
Donald Trump has said he regrets not sending federal forces to seize election equipment in 2020 and he has made clear he’ll do whatever it takes to put his thumb on the scale of future elections — even if it means intimidating voters…
From the first pitch of spring to that final out in October, the Dodgers once again made us believe.
For nearly seventy years, the Dodgers have made Los Angeles proud, and their back-to-back World Series Championships have only reaffirmed their remarkable legacy.
Every community, including those in places like rural southern Delaware, deserves well-trained law enforcement protection.
For too long, federal grant programs have felt out of reach for many small and rural law enforcement agencies.
Our foreign policy cannot be about military might, and it can't be about cutting people off with tariffs.
This legislation protects religious liberty and puts parents back in charge of their children’s health and wellbeing.
Taxpayer-funded K-12 schools have no right to turn students away at the door because of their vaccination status – especially if they have a religious exemption.
Last time I checked, parents are in charge of their children’s healthcare decisions, not the federal government.
This is a free country, and parents have every right to make personal decisions about what vaccines they choose to give their children.
The responsible development of civil nuclear energy, on an international scale, contributes to U.S. national security and bolsters our economy.
Nuclear energy is a source of clean and abundant power, and its growth in the U.S. and around the world will lower costs for consumers and combat climate change.
Ukraine is winning on the battlefield against Russian invaders, and there’s much more the United States can do to strangle Russia’s war machine without putting ourselves at risk.
