These things that were happening in the quiet of night, we shined a light on it, elevated it, people raised their voices and they got their victory.

Consumer sentiment is near record lows. Ordinary Americans know Donald Trump’s economy isn’t working for them.
This Trump economy isn’t just bad—for me—it’s a moral abomination.
So, who’s served by this economy? There’s a long range of people who seem to be suffering. Who’s served by the economy—the Trump economy?
Accordingly, we insist that the Postal Service abandon this proposed regulation and return to its core mission of providing universal postal services to every American.
Despite these grave and serious legal deficiencies, on June 2, 2026, USPS published a proposed rule that, if finalized, would establish President Trump’s control over federal elections and allow USPS to adjudicate who can and cannot vote…
We write for a second time regarding the unconstitutional and illegal attempt to transform the United States Postal Service (USPS) into an election administration agency controlled by the White House and President Trump.
With voting rights under attack in Georgia and across the country, I am reintroducing my legislation to empower voters to challenge in court any action taken by a state or local government that makes it harder to vote.
When we protect the right to vote, we protect the very foundation of our democracy.
Republicans’ cruel assault on reproductive healthcare has left millions of women with no option but to travel out of state for the care they need.
Women are bearing these unbelievable tragedies in their life, but they're also bearing all this extra cost because somebody promulgated this rule on our health care system.
Four years after Dobbs, women are worse off. They are traveling farther, paying more, and facing greater barriers to care. Since Idaho imposed a restrictive abortion ban, more than one-third of the state’s OB-GYNs have left – and women are…
Housing is a crisis in America and huge bipartisan majorities passed this bill on to the President’s desk. He should now sign it or pledge not to veto it. Doing anything else is just sticking Americans with higher housing costs.
We urge you to honor that commitment by abandoning these proposals and to further reject any legislation that would permanently cut off these benefits to veterans.
We are equally opposed to the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act because it codifies the same harmful reductions in benefits for veterans with tinnitus and sleep apnea benefits.
We urge you to listen to the growing opposition from veterans and publicly commit to addressing their concerns.
We write in strong opposition to a proposed reduction in benefits for more than one million veterans suffering from sleep apnea and tinnitus outlined in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) draft rule.
Seems like every time I call for customer service, it comes from India. Is that correct? Are they as much complicit?
Mr. Miller, China is known for its investment fraud and scam centers. What do these criminal enterprises look like? And is the Chinese Communist Party or [its] syndicates with their protection or approval—are they approving these?
Our story is stronger when we tell it in its entirety – the good and bad, the challenging chapters, the rough places, the foundational sins, the wrongs, and the arc towards a more perfect union.
Ultimately, the American story is not simply one story. We are a nation founded not on one ethnicity or one language, one religion or one history, but on an idea.
I will do whatever I can to ensure that our service members have what they need to defend themselves, and our military is ready to face down the threats of the modern age.
But if this supplemental request is in fact a backdoor to authorizing the war in Iran it will not have my vote.
Our nation’s military has real needs, from filling significant munitions backlogs – partly created by President Trump’s war of choice in Iran – to protecting our troops and bases from the lethal, cheap drones that are a fact of modern…
