On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we celebrate the rich histories, cultures, and enduring contributions of Native American communities. We also recognize the injustices Indigenous peoples have faced and reaffirm our commitment to tribal sovereignty, treaty obligations, and justice for all.
Wishing a joyous Navratri to everyone celebrating! May these nine nights bring strength, peace, and prosperity to you and your loved ones. https://t.co/CX9GpOmXXp
Coming out is deeply personal, and everyone deserves the freedom to do it in their own time and on their own terms. On National Coming Out Day, we celebrate LGBTQI+ Americans living openly and authentically, and stand with everyone still deciding when, how, or whether to share that part of themselves.
Two more suburban police officers face charges for allegedly misusing Flock license plate cameras to conduct unauthorized searches. This is exactly why I introduced the bipartisan NO FLOCK Act. Surveillance technology cannot become a license to track Americans without accountability. https://t.co/zp0BzXVn8K
Captain Smit Machchhar risked his life to save 172 passengers and his fellow crew members when his co-pilot attempted to hijack Flydubai Flight 1073. I'm honoring his extraordinary courage in the Congressional Record. His heroism deserves our nation's recognition. https://t.co/wJORSl3Nec
Chicago lost a Bears legend today. Mike Ditka helped bring our city championships as both a player and a coach, including the unforgettable 1985 Super Bowl season. His legacy will live on for generations of Bears fans. My condolences to his family and loved ones. https://t.co/2bIpsaiTay
I wrote in CyberScoop about a growing threat Washington is overlooking: quantum computers could break the encryption protecting our financial records, military communications, and national security secrets. Foreign adversaries can steal that data today and decrypt it later. Congress must act now. https://t.co/bWfLGqeDST
At a time of the largest measles outbreak in 35 years, the Trump Administration is rejecting settled science, underreporting measles deaths, and delaying vaccine access for children. I joined my colleagues in demanding answers from the CDC. Our kids deserve better. https://t.co/VIIMAzOBYg
ICE agents are already operating near voting sites, raising fears of intimidation and reinforcing why I demanded answers when FBI Director Kash Patel refused to rule out deploying agents to the polls. Armed federal agents have no business intimidating Americans exercising their right to vote. https://t.co/JS8zgysF8b
Trump is seemingly reinventing shibboleths from first principles, on course to making 2+2=5 the next loyalty test.
