Today, I watched the legality of Trump's tariffs argued in front of the Supreme Court.
This case is about more than that though—it's about bringing down prices and restoring Congress' power.

People are already feeling the sticker shock of their skyrocketing 2026 health care premiums.
We're here in Washington ready to do something about it, but Republicans need to be here too.

President Trump is unleashing an economic assault. With his illegal firing of Federal Reserve Governor Dr. Lisa Cook, he is threatening the financial security of every American.
Politicizing the central bank threatens more inflation, higher rates, unstable retirement accounts, and more uncertainty.

Social Security is a promise America made that no senior would be left to face old age alone. That promise for 90 years has been expanded so that none of the nation’s most vulnerable is left behind.
Republicans want to break that promise. But Democrats will ensure we keep it.

60 years ago today, Medicare and Medicaid became law.
Since then, these programs have made health care a reality for hundreds of millions, helping people live with dignity, security, and hope.
Democrats have never stopped fighting to keep this promise – and we never will.

John Lewis dedicated his life fighting to make America a better and more just place, showing us how kindness and forgiveness are what truly make a person strong and great.
We miss him every day.

The Republican tax bill attacks hospitals in Massachusetts. It cuts off revenue, cuts jobs, and cuts lifesaving care for thousands.

1/ In less than 100 days, this administration has taken an economy that was the envy of the world & is threatening to plunge us into a recession.
The Trump Tariff Tax is tanking the economy, erasing trillions of dollars in retirement savings & increasing costs for the average household by $3,800.

1/ This is the sign hanging on the door of the Springfield Vet Center after the VA cut thousands of employees in February.
