There’s no reason for the United States of America, the most powerful country on the planet, to have the kind of maternal mortality rate that we have.

It’s a scandal and a scar on the soul of America that women routinely bring babies into the world with one foot in the grave.

That mission is, quote, ‘to inspire our fellow Americans to reflect on our past, strengthen our love of country, and renew our commitment to the ideals of democracy through programs that educate, engage, and unite us as a nation.’

When it comes to America250 the transparency is absolutely there, but not when it comes to Freedom 250. In the face of all this, the President has done a hell of a job trying to undermine the work of America250.

The President used that [July 2025 America250] event — meant to launch the year-long countdown — to air his personal grievances, promote his political agenda, and rant about his hatred of Democrats.

But sadly, and this isn’t shocking… there are people like President Trump, especially President Trump, who want to rewrite our history, by ignoring parts that we ought to be learning from the most.

This is an exciting time, and it should serve as a moment of reflection on the totality of our nation’s authentic history – not just the good, but the good and the not-so-good alike – to truly appreciate the promise of our nation and the…

Donald Trump is trying to poison trust in the 2026 elections before a single vote is cast — but Senate Democrats will not let him intimidate voters, threaten fair elections, or meddle with the will of the people.

Donald Trump is attacking the 2026 midterm elections because he fears he cannot win on his agenda, which is raising costs for Americans who are already struggling to afford healthcare, energy, housing, groceries, and gas.

He’s like the reverse Midas touch. Everything he touches turns to you know what.

We know that for most Americans, the cost of healthcare is up, cost of gas is up, cost of your energy bills at home is up, cost of almost everything is up, and here we had a chance to do something to address the cost of housing, and Donald…

This SAVE America Act, supposed SAVE America Act, is a hodgepodge of Trump, of vindictive vendettas, and he’s not going to get his way. We’re going to keep fighting it tooth and nail.

The bottom line is this: he doesn’t want to help lower costs, not for housing, not for groceries, not for health care, not for energy.

So, instead of signing this bill into law which would provide, among other things, additional resources and flexibility for local governments to invest in new housing construction, he’s threatened to not sign the bill because he’s still…

Here’s all you need to know, as if we needed more proof that Donald Trump does not care about you: He does not care about working families.

They’re not inconvenient. They’re a child.

Science would say that life begins at conception when the cell division happens.

But honestly, I think we should continue the conversation, the dialog that’s been going on for 250 years to determine does life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness apply to all of us.

I’m one of those crazy people that actually believe that children are valuable. All of them.

Today I rise to be able to mark the fourth anniversary of the Dobbs decision, a decision that overturned Roe v. Wade and returned the issue of abortion, and when life begins and who we’re going to be as a people on this issue of life…

Every student deserves the best possible education, and that is built on the strength of our educator workforce. Unfortunately, pay for educators at Bureau of Indian Education schools just hasn’t kept pace.

My colleagues have done a good job of talking about the care, but I don't think anybody is talking about the cost,

We write for a second time regarding the unconstitutional and illegal attempt to transform the United States Postal Service into an election administration agency controlled by the White House and President Trump.

Gulf Coast shrimpers, they continue to face pressure from imported seafood that is often sold at an unfair price due to foreign subsidies and dumping prices.
