Today, I was recognized during the 41st Annual Cyprus and Hellenic Leadership Conference for my efforts in support of our Greek and Cypriot allies. I have long pushed for peaceful reunification in Cyprus, and it is my sincere hope that the island will one day be able to find lasting peace in unity.
There is nothing to love about Americans having to pay more for groceries, utilities, and health care. Today’s inflation report saw inflation hit a three-year high—marking the second straight month inflation outpaced wage growth.
Does this President need a reality check?
Social Security is a lifeline that Americans earn after a lifetime of hard work, but in six years its trust fund will not be able to pay out its full benefits.
I joined my colleagues, Democrats and Republicans, to demand that Congress act to preserve this program for our kids and grandkids.
NEWS: Senators Bill Cassidy, @kaine.senate.gov, Tom Tillis, & I released a statement calling on Congress to act and protect Social Security, which faces insolvency in 2032.
It’s hard to keep track how many times President Trump has promised that the Iran War would soon end. More than 100 days after he launched his war of choice, we have yet to see any real or coherent plan from this Administration to end this conflict.
The Congressional Award Gold Medal is the highest honor that Congress can bestow upon young adults.
Today, @duckworth.senate.gov & I met with four Illinoisans who received the Gold Medal to congratulate them on their accomplishment & thank them for their contributions to their communities.
The cruelty is the point.
The Trump Administration is wrongly detaining people with no criminal records.
Then, in detention, they’re being treated in ways no human being should and dying.
Donald Trump has been engaged in the most corrupt enterprise in the history of the Presidency.
Todd Blanche apparently has not noticed.
More than five years after President Trump encouraged a mob of insurrectionists to attack the Capitol, he is still engaging in the same type of baseless falsehoods about election fraud. He simply cannot accept the reality that he or his party can ever lose an election.
President Trump stormed out of an interview after being called out for spreading his election conspiracy theories. When confronted with the truth, he can’t back up his lies, so he runs away.
