Trump: Do as I say, not as I do. Pure hypocrisy.

Trump promised no new wars and lower prices, and Americans are seeing the exact opposite. Gas prices and energy costs won't stabilize at the drop of a hat. The best time to end this was yesterday. The next best time is NOW. No war with Iran. Lower prices.

Trump says we can’t afford the basics families need. But he’s got $1 billion in taxpayer dollars to stop offshore wind projects that would lower energy costs. Families get excuses. Big interests get checks. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

I’m thrilled that after years of hard work, Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project, the largest commercial-scale offshore wind project in the U.S., is producing clean, reliable energy. I’m proud to support VA’s leadership in the clean energy economy.

On Saturday, average gas prices surged to $3.93 a gallon—nearly a dollar higher than right before Trump’s Iran strikes. Whether you’re going to the grocery store, work, or your kid’s day care, Trump’s war is costing you money.

It’s the Affordable Care Act’s 16th anniversary. Today, I’m frustrated that the GOP is hellbent on destroying it and allowed ACA enhanced premium tax credits to expire last year—raising health care costs for millions. We must restore those tax credits and strengthen the ACA.

Our servicemembers and their families deserve access to affordable prescription drugs. My bipartisan Rx ACCESS Act would help make that happen, and I’m going to keep working with my colleagues to pass it.

More than 80 percent of deaths during pregnancy, childbirth, or postpartum are preventable. We must do more to address this and lower maternal mortality rates. That’s why I’m introducing legislation to boost maternal vaccination rates, address disparities in care, and save lives.

Earlier this week, I joined veterans to talk about how America needs to learn from the past. More than 14,000 U.S. servicemembers and contractors died, more than 65,000 were injured, and more than $8 trillion was spent in forever wars in the Middle East. We can’t repeat these mistakes in Iran.

If our servicemembers are being asked to risk their lives in this war, then the White House and Congress shouldn't be afraid to put the facts of this war before the American public so they can make a judgement about whether it's in our best interest. I'm going to keep pushing.

First, Trump tried to end-run Congress by starting an unauthorized, illegal war with Iran. Now he’s trying to end-run the American people by disenfranchising millions of eligible voters. He’s so scared Republicans can’t win that he’s trying to cheat. youtube.com/shorts/Mc9vC...

Thank you to the National Foreign Trade Council Foundation for honoring me with the World Trade Award for my work on trade, including challenging senseless trade policies that are taxing Americans and causing chaos for American businesses. I’m going to keep at it.

Eid Mubarak! I’m wishing a peaceful and meaningful Eid al-Fitr to Muslim communities in Virginia and around the world.

Today, I sent a letter to the Navy raising concerns about the extended deployment of USS Ford and the impacts for the ship’s maintenance and deployment cycle, Sailors’ morale and wellbeing, and Navy retention. Our servicemembers and their families deserve better.

Trump is considering deploying thousands of troops to the Middle East to expand operations in his war-of-choice against Iran. That would needlessly risk the lives of our troops and only escalate the crisis. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Sailors with the Ford Carrier Strike Group have been at sea for nearly 9 months. They should be home with their families. Lengthy deployments and terrible ship conditions are bad for our servicemembers, their families, readiness, and military retention. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/u...

Promoting disability rights can significantly boost global security and prosperity. I’m proud to introduce legislation to enhance U.S. engagement on disability rights around the world and ensure State Department staff with disabilities have access to equal opportunities.

Lo que Trump prometió: acabar con las guerras interminables y reducir los costos. Lo que Trump realmente está haciendo: iniciar guerras en el extranjero que aumentan los costos. Esta es una presidencia de promesas incumplidas. youtube.com/shorts/Lsxmv...

I was with veterans in the Capitol today to amplify their concerns about Trump’s unnecessary war with Iran. Rather than listen and vote to end it, too many senators chose to bow to a President who has called our fallen heroes ‘suckers’ and ‘losers.’ This isn't over.

America’s veterans understand the cost of war. I’m glad I got to talk to veterans today about how Trump dragging us into another prolonged conflict in the Middle East with no clear goals, strategy, or end state is so harmful.

4 years ago, my Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act became law to support the mental health of our healers. I was honored to work with the family of Dr. Breen, an MD from VA who died by suicide while serving on the COVID frontlines, to name the law after her.

Our servicemembers’ service and sacrifice can take a toll on their mental health. The least we can do is ensure they receive the mental health care benefits they are promised as veterans. The significant staff losses under Trump are unacceptable and must be rectified.

What Trump said he’d do: end forever wars and lower costs. What Trump is actually doing: starting overseas wars that raise costs. This is a presidency of broken promises. youtube.com/shorts/B6lVQ...

Trump is already waging a deeply unpopular war against Iran. Now, Trump says he thinks he can have “the honor of taking Cuba.” We need to focus on helping Americans and lowering costs, not inciting a new global conflict every month.

Trump was completely unprepared for the war against Iran that HE started. Six months ago, the Trump Administration DOGE’d its global oil and gas price experts—the people who would be helping address the oil shortage that’s causing surges in gas prices.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! My family immigrated to the United States from Ireland in the 1840s and 50s, and I’m proud to celebrate my Irish heritage today! Wishing everyone a safe and festive holiday!

Trump’s talk about gas prices lowering soon is proving to be just that—talk. Back in reality, working families are struggling with unaffordable costs because of his war of choice. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/bre...

It's Long COVID Awareness Day. Americans are still grappling with COVID’s repercussions, including Long COVID. I'll keep working to support research and education on this condition and other infection-associated chronic conditions.

The attack on an elementary school in Iran is a horrific tragedy. It also raises serious concerns about the safety of wrongfully detained Americans in Iran. I pray that they won't be impacted by the ongoing violence, and that they will soon safely be brought home.

This is tragic news. The loved ones of the six servicemembers who died in Iraq are in my thoughts. I will closely track the findings of the ongoing investigation into this crash. x.com/cnn/status/2...

I'm praying for the victims of the shooting at Old Dominion University today, and deeply appreciate the work of our law enforcement officers. I will continue to monitor this closely and encourage all to heed officials' instructions about avoiding the area around Constant Hall.

The Senate passed my legislation challenging Trump’s broad-based tariffs. SCOTUS struck down his tariffs because they were illegal. But he can’t take the hint. He’s trying a new tactic to impose taxes and raise costs. @warnock.senate.gov and I have a bill to stop him. youtube.com/shorts/0jvL0...

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.

The war against Iran is extremely unpopular. Both Trump and my colleagues in Congress should listen to their constituents: Americans don’t want this.

Thousands of servicemembers killed. Thousands more injured. Hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians killed. Trillions spent. That’s what 25+ years of war in the Middle East got us. My colleagues and I are doing all we can to stop the US from repeating these mistakes. youtube.com/shorts/Jnu8d...

Americans want lower costs and no new wars. Instead, Trump is driving up costs—for things like airfare to visit loved ones or take a needed vacation—through his new, illegal war against Iran. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/t...

Yesterday, I toured Prince William County’s Crisis Receiving Center—which I helped secure $2 million in funding in FY23 to build—to learn more about the facility’s work to provide services for those experiencing mental health and substance use emergencies.

Together we pray for the families of Capt. Cody A. Khork, Sgts. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor and Noah L. Tietjens, Sgt. Declan J. Coady, Maj. Jeffrey R. O’Brien, Chief Warrant Officer 3 Robert M. Marzan, Staff Sgt. Benjamin N. Pennington, and Major Sorffly Davius.

Trump’s words speak for themselves. He thinks the surge in gas prices is a “very small price to pay.” That might be true for him and the Epstein class, but not for regular working people.

On Wednesday, the Court of International Trade ruled that companies subjected to Trump’s illegal tariffs are entitled to refunds. The Administration must swiftly reimburse the thousands of small businesses across the country that bore the brunt of Trump’s harmful tariffs.

It’s International Women’s Day! Today, we celebrate the countless women around the world whose fight for equality has made the world a better place. Together, we must continue their fight for equal rights and equal protection under the law.

Today is the 61st anniversary of Bloody Sunday, when Alabama state troopers violently attacked peaceful protesters marching from Selma to Montgomery for the right to vote. The protesters' courage in the face of danger continues to inspire me and countless others.

I’m doing everything I can to push for more resources to assist Americans stuck in the Middle East. If you or a loved one are currently in the region, please visit the link below for more information: www.kaine.senate.gov/middleeastre...

Happy Women’s History Month! This month, I’m thinking of the generations of incredible women, known and unknown, whose intellect, courage, and resilience have built the world today. We need to keep working together to create a more equitable world for the generations of women to come.

Virginia mourns the loss of Chief Warrant Officer Three Robert M. Marzan, a tragic casualty of the Iran War. Let’s all pray for his family in Spotsylvania.

My statement slamming the Senate’s failure to pass my bipartisan War Powers Resolution that would have stopped President Donald Trump’s illegal, unnecessary war with Iran:

Senate Republicans blocked my War Powers Resolution to end Trump’s unnecessary and illegal war with Iran. But I’m not giving up—this is too important. Stay tuned.

Trump says the quiet part out loud . . . “forever war.” We can’t let him repeat the same mistakes the U.S. made in Iraq and Afghanistan.

This is major: Today, the Senate is going to vote on my War Powers Resolution to block Trump’s illegal war against Iran. If you don’t want another forever war in the Middle East, I urge you to make your voice heard ahead of this monumental vote. youtube.com/shorts/Cw9Tp...

Warning American citizens to evacuate over a dozen countries three days into this war, when commercial flights are already shut down, demonstrates the Trump Administration’s lack of planning or coordination.
