We all benefit from great teachers, firefighters, nonprofit hospital staff, and other public servants. But now the Trump-Vance Administration wants to gut a critical program enacted by Congress to encourage folks to get trained for these jobs. Here’s what I’m doing about it:

Costs are soaring, but Republicans want to take $1 BILLION from Americans’ pockets to build a ballroom. @markwarner.bsky.social and I crunched the numbers—here are some of the many ways that money could be used to help Virginians instead:

Over the past four years, the Ukrainian people have fought heroically to defend their home against Russia’s unprovoked invasion. Now, Trump is letting Putin rake in billions of dollars to fuel his war of conquest. Here’s how:

Democrats, Republicans, and Independents can all agree—Trump’s war of choice in Iran is hurting America. My colleagues and I are giving Senate Republicans yet another opportunity to do what’s right and end this war.

For all Trump cares, gas could be $100 a gallon. Skyrocketing fuel prices don’t affect him. But that’s not reality for the vast majority of Americans. We need to bring down costs ASAP.

Trump referring to the war against Iran as an “excursion” is beyond disrespectful to the families of the servicemembers killed in the Middle East and all our troops currently risking their lives. It makes my skin crawl.

This is an economy for the Epstein class and the Marie Antoinettes of the world, not everyday folks. No surprise Trump is “very proud of it.”

First, it was Georgia. Then Arizona. Now, the Trump Administration has demanded that Wayne County, Michigan, turn over all ballots from the 2024 election. These are flashing red warning signs of intent to interfere with the 2026 and 2028 elections. Know your rights.

Today, the Senate is voting on Republicans’ attempt to ram through funding for ICE and CBP without critical reforms. My Democratic colleagues and I are forcing votes on amendments to tackle the affordability crisis and hold the Trump-Vance Administration accountable.

This is a meaningful week for Jews and Christians alike. As we prepare for Passover and Easter, I am wishing for a time of joy, renewal, and reflection for all observing.
