I joined my Democratic colleagues today to visit the commemorative plaque that honors the officers who protected our Nation’s Capitol on January 6th, 2021. My Republican colleagues may try but, we will never forget the brave officer’s sacrifice and threat to our democracy that day.

Just ten days into this war, and Americans are already seeing the impact at the gas pump. Higher prices are only adding to the financial pressures Americans are already facing. The American people were promised relief from the rising cost of living, and Trump’s policies have only made matters worse.

With the conflict in the Middle East escalating, it can be difficult to get accurate and up-to-date information about what to do if you are abroad. If you are traveling overseas keep yourself, and your loved ones, safe and informed by following these steps.

In less than three days of conflict with Iran, the United States has already lost four brave service members. Congress did not approve this war, yet American families are already paying the price. I pray for the families of these individuals and hope for a pathway to peace in the near future.
