It shouldn’t take the Senate Parliamentarian ruling Ballroom Republicans out of line for this colossal waste of taxpayer dollars to be stopped, but it’s a good first step and we will be ready to keep fighting if they try again.

Expanding opportunity & representation from diverse backgrounds strengthens our nation’s workforce. Enjoyed getting to speak to the next generation of lawyers and doctors yesterday at the I Am Abel Foundation’s annual conference. https://t.co/Ch031i8ebR

When President Trump’s term is mercifully up, he can rest assured that statues of him will likely be erected, and forever enshrined, at the headquarters of the few who actually benefitted from his tenure: tobacco giants Reynolds American and Altria. https://t.co/sWJ5tvnpks

It’s National Police Week. Chicago is mourning the loss of Officer John Bartholomew, who died in the line of duty last month. I just paid tribute to him and his family—and all officers who defend us every day. https://t.co/FZFbZ2qny3

Confirming radical, anti-law enforcement nominees with little scrutiny is a terrible way for Senate Republicans to honor National Police Week. https://t.co/szhhQPzkii

President Trump reducing U.S. troop rotations in NATO countries sends exactly the wrong message to Putin as he tries to get Russia to end the war in Ukraine. Moreover, Poland is one of the most pro-U.S. NATO allies on the front lines of the larger Russian threat.

Senate Republicans just moved forward with nearly 50 nominees without consent or agreement from Democrats. They’re rushing them through because they’re unqualified. Shameful.

The dam’s breaking for Big Tech. New Mexico and California juries ruled against them. Congress is supercharging its efforts to reel them in.

Senator Paul Simon was my mentor and someone who always knew the value of understanding how the world works. I joined @SenatorWicker to introduce the bipartisan Senator Paul Simon Study Abroad Program Act to create opportunities for American students of all backgrounds to see and experience the world.

Congress can do two things right now to hold Big Tech accountable. Repeal Section 230. Open the courtrooms for families. Put people first—not social media companies. https://t.co/Ob2UYoG5X1
