It is now the middle of July. Inflation is going up. And that is the definition of a broken promise.

A member of the Democratic Party, he has held the position of Senate Majority Leader since January 2021, making him one of the most prominent figures in the U.S. Senate. Schumer previously served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1981 to 1999, representing New York's 9th congressional district.

We’ve said from the start that Donald Trump’s tariffs are a national sales tax on working and middle class families — and now it is causing inflation to rise, as many of us feared.
What they are doing, that is just the start. Republicans have made it clear: They want even deeper cuts to Medicaid.
Tariffs raise the price of groceries, add thousands of dollars in additional costs for the average household, and Donald Trump’s chaotic approach does nothing — nothing — to make our economy stronger.
Hospitals in Iowa, Nebraska, North Carolina and Maine have already announced that they’re closing or in serious danger of closing – not in 2027, not in 2028, but soon.
At least 300 rural hospitals are at immediate risk of closing because of this bill. Not two years from now. Now, this week. Two weeks after the bill passed.
We are doing everything we can — everything we can to keep the bipartisan appropriations process going forward.
Here's who Senate GOP is trying to put on the federal bench: Whitney Hermandorfer. Less than ten years of legal experience. Never served as the sole or chief counsel on a single case that was tried to verdict. Made a career out of going…
I have known Zohran Mamdani since we worked together to provide debt relief for thousands of beleaguered taxi drivers and fought to stop a fracked gas plant in Astoria.

Frequently used expressions such as ‘globalize the intifada’ sound to many of us like a call to not only kill the Jews in Israel, but to kill all the Jews worldwide.
He ran an impressive campaign that connected with New Yorkers about affordability, fairness, and opportunity.
If Republicans cave to Donald Trump and gut these investments agreed to by both parties, that would be an affront — a huge affront — to the bipartisan appropriations process.
Following the disastrous and deeply devastating flash flooding in Texas this weekend, I write to urge you to immediately to open an investigation into the scope, breadth, and ramifications of whether staffing shortages at key local…
To honor the lives of those lost, we have a responsibility to the American people to determine whether preventable failures contributed to this tragedy — and to ensure that it never happens again.
Today's vote will haunt our Republican colleagues for years to come as the American people see the damage that is done—as hospitals close, as people are laid off, as costs go up, as the debt increases.
This bill, as we have said for months, steals people’s healthcare, jacks up their electricity bill to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.
The Republicans are still in disarray. They’re hiding from us all kinds of things.

Senate Democrats seek Jeffrey Epstein files from Trump administration through obscure law.
