The lack of preparedness that has led to injuries and deaths

I know first-hand the importance of every child being able to learn at school and fully participate in our communities, which is why I will continue to urge my colleagues to pass my bipartisan RISE Act and ease the transition from high…

It was great to be at Southern New Hampshire University to hear from students about their experiences on campus, and the work of staff at colleges and universities across the Granite State to make sure that all students, regardless of any…

It’s past time that the Department of Defense treats this growing public health crisis with the urgency it deserves.

“We need the Cybersecurity and AI Board of Investigations to get to the bottom of major incidents and give companies and the government the critical information necessary to build resilience and better secure our economy and our country.”

“Building stronger defenses requires a full accounting of what goes wrong, and we cannot depend on companies with little incentive to disclose their failures to give us one.”

“Despite the unprecedented depth and scale of recent AI-enabled cyber attacks, the public is learning critical details piecemeal,”

As Americans face frequent extreme weather disasters, a job market disrupted by the expansion of artificial intelligence, and other economic challenges, the Civilian Climate Corps presents an opportunity to support meaningful job…

“We don’t have to accept the transition from in-person connection to online isolation. Massive social media platforms knowingly addict us to screens and harm our kids to boost their profits. These big tech companies have gotten a free pass…

This resolution is a chance for this body to end the war. And so we are pleading once again, maybe the 10th time that we've had a resolution like this, for our colleagues to join us.

The people, whether they're Republicans, independents, or Democrats, are telling us loudly and unequivocally, end this war.

Sickle cell disease has claimed the lives of too many people far too soon, including a former staff member of mine, John Amara.

All Marylanders deserve to feel safe in their homes, schools, communities – and especially in places of worship.

Every Marylander deserves to be able to exercise their right to religious freedom and worship without fear for their safety.

If the notion here is to gather accurate information so we don’t make the mistake that led up to your incarceration, there was a failure here. A complete failure and misuse of the information.

Thank you for raising that point because it is not a matter of just reading license plates. That seems so routine, but it comes to the point where you can identify and recognize the people in the car.

We are concerned in Illinois with Operation Midway Blitz, where ICE and the Department of Homeland Security came into our state and started looking for people to deport… It turned out that the majority of people they were deporting were…

Welcoming a thoughtful number of refugees every year is part of our nation’s legacy and an important international obligation.

The Trump Administration’s agenda is clear: prioritize white-only Afrikaners as refugees and disregard the millions of men, women, and children from around the world who are trying to escape horrific violence and persecution.

We must act to address this national tragedy. I’m introducing the CARE for Moms Act to provide more comprehensive and culturally competent maternal and postpartum health care for mothers, especially women of color, and their babies.

In the U.S., Black women are three times more likely to die as a result of their pregnancy. It is unacceptable that in this country we are losing mothers and their babies to deaths that could have been prevented with the right…

The rule of law to democracy is like oxygen to a human body …If you don’t have it, you have either anarchy or you have authoritarianism.
