Every American who wakes up in the morning to get a cup of java is paying a price for Donald Trump’s reckless, ridiculous, and almost childish tariffs.

We are just days away from a healthcare crisis unlike any we’ve ever seen, and Republicans from the Senate to the House to the White House are dithering about.

We Democrats have been calling on Republican leaders to sit down with us and negotiate and address this crisis since the summer.

We want to lower healthcare costs, now.

Tens of millions of Americans face the specter of financial crisis all while Donald Trump is dancing on the tarmac in Malaysia.

Shouldn't the president listen to the cares of the American people and their desperate need on health care, rather than taking a foreign trip?

There’s been so much lying, obfuscation, cover-ups — the American people need to see everything that’s in the Epstein file.

We think that Janet Mills is the best candidate to retire Susan Collins.

The administration has no right to stonewall Congress on matters of national security. Senators deserve information, and the administration has a legal obligation to inform Congress precisely about what is happening right now abroad.

Let me express the profound gratitude of all of us for his amazing tour de force over these many hours. Jeff Merkley has been the Paul Revere of 21st century America, literally, figuratively, riding from one corner of this country to the…

So to renew my question succinctly: Does my friend from Oregon believe, as I believe, that before the President jets away on this foreign trip, shouldn't he sit down with Leader Jeffries and me, as we wanted him very much to do--demanded…

I thank my colleague, once again, a great answer, freedom of the press is at risk, and if freedom of the press is at risk, so is our entire democracy.

Republicans need to wake up from whatever dream they're in.

I say to my fellow Americans this No Kings Day: Do not let Donald Trump and Republicans intimidate you into silence. That's what they want to do. They're afraid of the truth.

We have always negotiated these appropriations agreements in a bipartisan way.

It's always been unacceptable to Democrats to do the Defense bill without other bills that have so many things that are important to the American people, in terms of health care, in terms of housing, in terms of safety.

We’re not negotiating in public, plain and simple.

We need to solve the problem.

The ACA premium crisis is not a fix-it-later issue, but rather a fix-it-now issue.

Republican leaders can say all they want [that] there’s nothing to negotiate, but if Republicans don’t change course, then very soon, 20 million Americans are going to face financial catastrophe when their health care premiums go through…

If this report is accurate, every single Republican leader from President Trump on down … ought to condemn these comments swiftly and unequivocally.

Let’s be blunt: nobody’s forcing Trump and Vought to do this. ... They’re callously choosing to hurt people — the workers who protect our country, inspect our food, respond when disasters strike. This is deliberate chaos.

Republicans control the Senate, the House, and the White House.

Today is a wonderful day. Finally, finally finally, the last living hostages brutally held by Hamas are home, an immense and overwhelming sigh of relief.

This is deliberate chaos.
