We’re grateful to the many police officers and first responders who rushed to the scene and captured the suspect.
The U.S.-Israel relationship does not require silence in the face of humiliation of detainees or conduct that undermines basic human dignity.
To defend our nation and what it means is to defend religious freedom. To defend our Constitution is to defend religious freedom. To defend religious freedom is to defend ourselves, our future, and our very republic.
I think freedom of religion is among those most basic and eternal. And I think when we fail to remember that and to give it life, and purpose, and meaning, we no longer deserve the freedoms for which our forebears fought.
Religious freedom, as I’ve said, is a fundamental threat to authoritarianism, and it is because of our commitment to a freedom of faith that we are also, as a nation, committed to an equality of all.
This bill is about protecting what’s most personal to us, what makes us us: our voice and our likeness.
Delaware has always been a center for innovation in this country, but it’s not enough to just invent things in America – we need to make them in America, too.
Today, it is on us to be strong for them in their time of pain and grief. Our hearts are with the families of the victims and the Wilmington Hospital community.

How will we ensure Iran actually complies with any nuclear agreement between the U.S. and Iran if one is reached?
What will be the status of Iran’s enriched nuclear material stockpile and how will its enrichment capabilities be curtailed or ended?
This war has come at a high cost: we have spent tens of billions of dollars, felt the brunt of soaring inflation and higher gas and fertilizer prices, 14 American service members are dead, and hundreds more are wounded.
What sanctions relief, release of frozen assets, or other economic windfall does the Trump administration plan to offer Iran and when?
There are critical questions we should all be asking: Is the Strait of Hormuz actually open to all commercial traffic?
The fact that we have not seen any text of an agreement, while he and Iranian leaders once again say different things about what has been agreed, highlights why we need to see this deal immediately.
Unfortunately, the president has made many promises about this war and fulfilled few of them.
If true, President Trump’s announcement is a step in the right direction to end the reckless war he started.
No. President Trump has changed the justifications for this war and repeatedly said a peace deal is going to happen tomorrow. It's going to happen today. It's not going to happen at all. I'm going to obliterate Iran. We're going to destroy…
