NEW: 4 Republicans just joined all Democrats to pass an Iran War Powers Resolution and put an end to this reckless, illegal war.

I urge my colleagues in the Senate to pass this swiftly. Ending this war is a moral imperative.

In partnership with AlexandriaVA.gov, we dedicated a memorial honoring the 67 lives lost in last year's midair collision over the Potomac.

Grief is a reminder that love doesn’t end, and I hope this space offers a place to remember and feel close to those who are deeply missed.

Happy Pride Month!

It’s always important to celebrate the joy and perseverance of the LGBTQ+ community, but especially now when the extreme right continues to vilify LGBTQ+ people in an attempt to undermine their rights and equal protection under the law.

In the United States, criticizing the government is not a crime. It’s a right protected by the First Amendment.

The DOJ Wants to Know Who on Reddit and X Is Criticizing ICE's Tactics In seeking identities of those behind anonymous social media posts, the Trump administration is intensifying its pursuit using grand jury subpoenas.

Today, President Trump issued an executive order asking artificial intelligence companies to provide the federal government with early access to models on a voluntary basis.

The risks posed by frontier AI models and their advanced cyber capabilities are real and demand serious attention, but this executive order falls short of providing a credible framework to manage those risks. As it is written, this order continues to allow companies to release powerful models to the public without undergoing meaningful evaluation or review. This largely voluntary and classified approach is simply not sufficient.

Equally concerning is absence of clear guidance on how identified threats would be addressed. While this order creates channels to surface potential risks, it fails to define procedures for responding to them once identified. It also opens the door to redirecting existing federal grant funding toward AI vulnerability efforts without clear safeguards or accountability.

This is underwhelming policy that mirrors the Trump Administration’s broader pattern of creating a wild west environment for AI development, rather than ensuring safe and responsible governance to protect the American public.

The Trump administration continues to enable the wealthiest individuals and corporations to dodge paying their fair share of taxes.

While corporations have avoided $40 billion in taxes, everyday Americans are struggling to afford basic needs. Unconscionable.

Trump Clears Way for Corporate Tax Dodge Hidden in the Fine Print U.S. companies skirted at least $40 billion in taxes since the beginning of 2025 thanks to schemes in places like Malta, Bermuda and Cyprus.

This is insane. Bill Pulte has no business being anywhere near intelligence or national security. His main qualification seems to be a willingness to misuse private information to pursue spurious attacks on Trump's perceived enemies.

Imagine what he's planning to do as DNI.

You don’t get credit for complying with a temporary court order. Trump’s scheme to rob American taxpayers won’t be dead until Congress bans it.

On the left is Rita Buckley, a former nurse living with a traumatic brain injury. Rita lost access to critical therapy after her clinic shut down due to Trump’s healthcare funding cuts.

On the right is Daniel Charles Ball, a January 6 rioter pardoned by Trump after being charged for allegedly throwing an explosive device at police on January 6th. Ball is one of many J6ers who has since been arrested again on criminal charges, and if Trump has his way will also be eligible to seek taxpayer money from Trump’s slush fund.
