New Acting ICE Director David Venturella spent decades in the revolving door between ICE and the private prison industry. Americans shouldn’t have to wonder whether ICE’s priorities are driven by the financial interests of detention contractors. I’m pressing for answers.

NEW: The Government Accountability Office is launching an investigation into Trump ripping programs out of the Education Department and shipping them off to agencies with no expertise. I pushed for this investigation because we can't stop fighting for our students and teachers.

Donald Trump's war with Iran has cost American households $100 billion — so far. That’s nearly $750 per household.

Is Trump spending his time lowering your costs? Nope—he's too busy posting AI-generated photos of himself floating in the reflecting pool.

While Americans are getting squeezed by rising costs, Trump wants as much as $200 BILLION more for his war with Iran. That’s on top of his $1.5 TRILLION defense budget request. How much is this war really costing Americans? I’m pressing for answers.

RFK Jr. said “the only people who lost coverage were people who were never entitled to coverage.” But higher costs were the #1 reason people in Massachusetts chose to drop their ACA coverage last year. They did everything right, and Trump still ripped away their health care.

$800 MILLION. That's how much more Americans are paying every day on gas thanks to Trump's war with Iran. But guess who's getting richer? Chevron CEO: +$104M ConocoPhillips CEO: +$54M Baker Hughes CEO: +$33M The same Big Oil executives Trump promised to deliver for on day one.

Families living next to data centers are facing nonstop noise, pollution, and higher utility bills. Over the last five years, electricity costs are up as much as 267% for families near these data centers. Enough is enough.

We have a health care worker shortage. Donald Trump’s response? Let’s make it harder for working class kids to become doctors and nurses.

Trump promised to lower costs on Day One. He failed. Everyday costs are through the roof, so Americans are relying on credit cards just to get through the month. Trump promised to cap interest rates at 10%. He failed. Sky-high interest rates are trapping Americans in debt.

Americans got trapped in the Middle East after Trump started war with Iran. Did Trump use every tool he had to get them out? A new document sent to my office reveals the answer is no. He didn't bother.

AI was trained on generations of human knowledge and work. Now Big Tech is making billions from it. It’s time to tax AI and make sure the American people benefit from what they helped build.

Beef? Buns? Pickles? Everything costs more this year. But when asked Donald Trump doesn’t “think about Americans’ financial situation.” Donald Trump ruins everything. Even National Hamburger Day.

It’s already too easy for our adversaries to exploit crypto to move billions. We should be strengthening standards, not creating new gaps our adversaries can exploit. The Clarity Act should not pass as written.

Today’s numbers tell the story: families are paying more for gas, food, and housing and utilities. Donald Trump promised to lower costs ‘on day one,' but instead inflation is running ahead of wages as his failed economic agenda hollows out Americans’ paychecks.

It might be hard to see from this picture today of the White House, but Donald Trump is very focused on lowering costs.

Donald Trump is gutting a crypto watchdog so the Trump family and their friends can enrich themselves. We need crypto legislation that stops this corruption and protects Americans from getting scammed.

AI is trained on human creativity and intelligence, funded by federal research using taxpayer dollars, and powered by data centers built on American land. The success of AI should belong to all of us. It’s time to tax AI and invest in people.

Powerfully important op-ed filled with hard truths by Senator @ChrisVanHollen. It’s a worthwhile read for everyone who wants to deliver peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/26/opinion/democra...

I’m fighting for affordable, high-quality child care for every single American family.

Memorial Day cookout. Beach trip. Visit with family. All of it costs more this year. That’s not an accident. Trump’s tariffs and war in Iran are driving up your costs.

“Would you rather?” Extra hard edition for Republicans.

If Donald Trump ends legal protections for Haitian workers, everyone will suffer. Our health care system is already on the brink of collapse thanks to Trump, and this decision would put patient care at risk nationwide. We must keep fighting back.

Kevin Warsh starts his tenure with his credibility in tatters. He's proven himself to be Donald Trump's sock puppet. And he refuses to answer who cut him a $100 million check for his secret investments – and what they may want from him as the new Fed Chair.

Americans are selling their blood to afford to live — and Donald Trump doesn’t even think about their financial situations.

Americans are selling their blood to afford to live — and Donald Trump doesn’t even think about their financial situations.

Time and again, Trump has failed to deliver on his promise to cap credit card interest rates at 10%. The latest test – will his regulators allow a bank to charge interest rates of more than 100% to families across America already struggling with rising costs?

Donald Trump made more than 3,700 trades this year. We need to ban him and every single lawmaker in Congress from trading stocks.

How private equity gutted local malls: Joann Fabrics, Red Lobster, Claire's, and more.

Donald Trump said out loud that he would rather dump a billion dollars a day on a war with Iran than pay for child care here at home. So much for America first.

The 30-year Treasury yield just hit its highest level since 2007 — right before the financial crisis. That means more expensive mortgages. Costlier car loans. Higher credit card interest rates. Trump promised to lower costs. His reckless agenda is doing the opposite.

Gas is over $4.50 a gallon. Grocery prices had the biggest one-month jump in nearly four years. Electricity bills are up by as much as 13%. Naturally, today, Senate Republicans are taking your tax dollars and trying to pour it into Trump's ballroom.

NEW report shows Trump is spending $1 billion a day on war with Iran while military families pay the price at home. With sky-high grocery prices, military families are relying on local food pantries and emergency grocery support programs to put food on the table. Disgraceful.

Donald Trump disclosed more than 3,700 trades he made while promoting companies as president.

Trump gets: - $100M arch - $1B ballroom fund - A gold coin with his face on it - A $1.8B slush fund for his MAGA buddies Meanwhile, he's left Americans with higher grocery bills, higher health care costs, and higher gas prices.

Today's shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego is horrific. Every American should be able to worship without having to worry about their safety. Tonight, I’m holding all of those impacted in my heart.

What could you do with $1 billion? Feed kids. Lower insulin costs. Let people file taxes for free. Instead, Republicans wants to spend it on a gold-encrusted ballroom.
