“I will fight this decision at every step – and I expect to hear the same outrage from my Republican colleagues.”

“The American people want cures to diseases that are causing heartache – not backdoor deals that rob them of hope and instead use their tax dollars for Secretary Hegseth’s pet projects.

“Donald Trump’s illegal war of choice in Iran is costing Americans billions of dollars in taxpayer funding and higher costs, and now he is raiding lifesaving medical research to find even more money for his out-of-control Department of…

The war in Sudan is now into its fourth year. A straight renewal of the UN Security Council Resolution on Sudan that maintains the status quo will not bring an end to the unimaginable violence and devastation that has affected millions of…

Gold is not the only natural resource being exploited to fund the war... revenue tied to gum arabic production is small relative to gold, but profits from its sale and control over of trade networks now help sustain the conflict.

Artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) operations account for approximately 80-90% of Sudan’s gold production.

Restrictions meant to disrupt transactions at the point of sale must be combined with a coordinated effort to restrict access to the precursor chemicals that enable unregulated gold extraction in the first place.

Any resolution put forward to renew sanctions pursuant to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1591 (2005) should also prohibit the export or transfer of precursor chemicals used in Sudan’s artisanal mining industry, target the…

Israeli settlers in the West Bank have perpetrated violent crimes against Palestinians, including American citizens, with impunity. It is completely reasonable for Congress to demand our own government to report who was involved in these…

The Netanyahu government has failed to stop Israeli security forces and settler attacks in the West Bank for years, including attacks that killed American citizens. The Trump administration has even gone so far as to reverse sanctions…

In my visits to the West Bank, I’ve heard numerous stories about the organized strategy of harassment and violence settlers are inflicting upon Palestinian villagers and Palestinian Americans. Tactics include cutting off villagers from…

As Congress begins to work on our next water funding bill, I am thinking of the Town of Plattsburgh as I fight to reauthorize this vital program for the Lake Champlain region.

That’s why I was proud to ensure the Town of Plattsburgh was added to the Lake Champlain Basin Program so we can unlock new federal funding to assess and inventory the infrastructure and provide a funding source for future remediation of…

Investing In Lake Champlain Conservation Program Is A WIN – WIN That Will Help Protect Both The Lake And Town Residents

We urge you to expeditiously approve the pay increase that was rightfully earned by our Nation’s hardworking air traffic controllers.

Squeezing more ‘utilization’ out of air traffic controllers who have been understaffed, underpaid and overworked for years will weaken retention and undermine aviation safety.

Controllers work long, high-stress hours and make split-second decisions that keep millions of passengers safe every day.

There is no reason why Venezuelans should have to leave their country.

I look forward to being on the trail and helping folks where I can be helpful, but we have got to put a check on this lawless administration and deliver what Americans need and deserve: lower costs, affordable healthcare, affordable…
