I remain committed to a two-state solution, where a Jewish state of Israel and a Palestinian state can co-exist in peace. The best path to ultimately achieving this peace is through direct, bilateral negotiations between Israel and the…

I wrote to FBI Director James Comey in September and requested the materials related to the FBI's investigations into the 2008 financial crisis. Elizabeth Warren joined me in this request, which we made as a result of the precedent the FBI…

As a cosponsor of H. Con. Res. 40, I rise today in strong support of its passage. Tragically, the division on the Korean Peninsula separated more than 10,000,000 Korean family members, including some who are now citizens of the United…

Long-term hospitals are an important part of our post-acute care system. This bill will help preserve access and maintain fairness for these hospitals and their patients. I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 5713, and it is my hope that…

As income inequality grows, the rich pull away from everyone else in terms of income.

I support the Social Security 2100 Act.
