Trump promised Americans he would reduce prices and improve the economy. Americans can see with their own eyes that his policies are doing the opposite.

If the test of a government is how it treats people on the margins of life, Trump's decision to withhold SNAP benefits from hungry children is proof that he has failed.

It was clear to everyone that Trump's corporate-funded ballroom was a magnet for corruption. Now, there's proof of wealthy donors using it to try to buy policy wins from the administration. Trump's East Wing is becoming the epicenter of the swamp.

1 in 4 American kids receive SNAP benefits, and they're going hungry in the richest nation on earth because Trump is refusing to make food assistance available to them. Our littlest Americans shouldn't suffer because of Trump's vindictiveness during this Republican shutdown.

I'm appalled to learn of the new famine declarations in El-Fasher and Kadugli town in Sudan that have put 375,000 people on the brink of starvation. An immediate surge of humanitarian aid is needed, and all groups must put down their weapons and commit to ending this war. www.npr.org/2025/11/03/g...

No, throwing a Great Gatsby-themed party at his gold-plated club while 42 million Americans lose their SNAP benefits isn’t President Trump’s "obligation," Speaker Johnson. It’s just careless.

Tune in now: I’m speaking on the Senate floor on the one-year anniversary of Trump’s election win about how he’s eroded our national security and made Americans less safe over the last 365 days. www.senate.gov/legislative/...

It’s been a year since Trump’s election, and in that year, he’s taken a hatchet to the pillars that kept our nation secure. Tune in at 5:15 to the Senate floor as I'll detail how Trump and Hegseth have spent the last year making Americans less safe ⤵️

Trump promised to reduce prices and improve the economy. He's done the opposite – and Americans know it.

From Georgia to Virginia to Pennsylvania, the voters spoke clearly: they’re fed up with high costs and Trump’s broken promises that he’d make America more affordable. So why is his administration in court today defending his tariffs that are raising costs on everyday goods for American families?

Last night, voters across the country made clear they’re concerned about Trump’s failure to address the cost of living. Trump’s response? Going over to the Supreme Court today to defend his tariffs that are increasing costs for American families by thousands of dollars.

@mcbride.house.gov and I agree: Trump defying a court order to take food off the table for 42 million Americans is unbelievably cruel—especially weeks before Thanksgiving.

Open enrollment has officially begun and millions of Americans are seeing their premiums double or even triple next year—all because Republicans are refusing to open the government and extend ACA tax credits. Head over to healthcare.gov and see the damage yourself.

Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House. They're trying to unilaterally withhold money for SNAP and lay off thousands of workers. Of course Americans of all stripes are holding them responsible for this shutdown.

To be clear, Trump isn’t just trying to deny food from hungry American families. He’s breaking the law so he can deny food from hungry American families.

First, Trump cut hundreds of billions of dollars from SNAP. ⁣ ⁣ Then, he tried to stop paying food assistance entirely.⁣ ⁣ Now, he has to be dragged kicking and screaming by the courts to make just half of SNAP's payments.⁣ ⁣ Why doesn't he want hungry Americans to be able to eat?

I'm glad Governor @mattmeyerde.bsky.social and Delaware are stepping up to fill the void after Trump let SNAP lapse — but it’s only temporary. Republicans are trying to let families go hungry instead of working with us to reopen the government. whyy.org/articles/del...

Two federal judges in two different states both just ruled that Trump has to use emergency funds set aside for SNAP to actually fund SNAP. He can’t refuse to use them just to score political points. This is great news for everyone who doesn’t want hungry American families to go without food.

I’m horrified by the atrocities of the ongoing civil war in Sudan and the recent reports of ethnic cleansing and the murder of thousands of civilians by the RSF and allied militias around El-Fasher.

This week, I spoke with Jan, a Delaware business owner and stage 4 cancer survivor, who told me that without the ACA, she wouldn’t have survived. If rates double, her 30-year business closes. Stories like hers underscore the urgency of protecting health care and reopening the government.

Today's announcements after President Trump’s meeting with President Xi show the cost of his repeated concessions: Americans still pay higher prices, China continues to coerce allies, and Xi walks away emboldened. While China gets real wins, we just get back to where we were a few months ago.

So let me get this straight: Americans will face higher prices because Trump got his feelings hurt by a TV ad? An ad that consists entirely of remarks by President Reagan? You shouldn't have to pay more for everyday goods because the president's ego is too fragile.

Delawareans know what the real crisis is: it’s the skyrocketing cost of health care. Republicans need to help us clean up the mess they created.

Take a look. It’s not pretty. And if Republicans get their way, there’s no relief coming.

Let's be clear: Trump could continue to fund food assistance programs like SNAP on his own. He's just choosing not to. He doesn't just want to keep the government to stay shutdown – he wants families to go hungry.

Don't be fooled: Trump is using the shutdown as a distraction to pursue his radical agenda of cuts to crucial services. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Control of artificial intelligence may define the rest of the 21st Century. That’s why Trump’s willingness to give China access to the most advanced computer chips on the market should alarm every American.

Our national parks are paying the price for Republicans' government shutdown, and every day they delay, they are making neglect become the nation’s environmental policy.

Coons: "I'm alarmed by reports Trump is considering allowing Nvidia to sell China their most advanced chip. The defining fight of the 21st century will be who controls AI... it would be a tragic mistake for Trump, in order to get some soybeans out of China, to sell them these critical AI chips"

Delawarean families like Daniel’s can’t afford to see their health insurance premiums double. I’m fighting for families like Daniel’s because they deserve better than the games Republicans are playing with their health care.

After 18 months of a full siege and humanitarian blockade on the city, more than 250,000 innocent people remain trapped in El Fasher, and the RSF’s control of it will lead to even more devastation for Sudanese civilians.

The hard work of any ceasefire isn't getting it signed, it's getting both sides to uphold it. The Trump administration needs to roll up its sleeves and hold both Hamas and Israel accountable to fully implement their ceasefire and protect civilians' lives.

As a hurricane barrels toward Jamaica, the buildup of US troops in the Caribbean is well-equipped to support the regional recovery from this catastrophic storm. President Trump and Sec. Hegseth should instruct them to assist as soon as is feasible. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

How does starving millions of Americans align with Trump’s ‘America First’ agenda? thehill.com/homenews/hou...

Jesus came to preach good news to the poor, not take food off their plates.

Our veterans are suffering because Republicans are keeping Washington shut down. Why are Republicans preventing the government from keeping our promises to those who have served?

Trump ran on ending foreign wars, but it increasingly looks like he may sleepwalk us into a new war of choice in South America. www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

President Trump is weaponizing the DOJ to punish his political enemies, even though AG Bondi promised the Senate under oath that this wouldn’t happen. This isn’t justice. It's corruption.

Trump is rolling out the red carpet for his ballroom while American families struggle to buy groceries. You can't make this up.

I'm glad Trump has not only realized that Putin is the obstacle to peace, he's now acting like it. We need to keep moving in this direction in concert with our partners and allies and make it clear to Russia that they cannot wait out the West.

Today is Day 22 of the government shutdown. How come Trump can find $40 billion for Argentina but can’t find a dime for Americans’ health care?

Families and communities across the country are feeling the impact of the Republican shutdown: 🍎Schools may not be reimbursed for free and reduced-price meals. ✈️Travelers are facing delays. 🏠Programs that provide childcare, job training, and support for seniors and veterans are at risk of closing.

Missed checks for air traffic control means missed flights for the rest of us. Air travel will grind to a halt unless Republicans end their disastrous government shutdown.

Trump’s shakedown of the Department of Justice for $230 million of your taxpayer dollars is the latest example that this corrupt administration is only looking out for one person—and it’s not you.

Just because Fox News and my Republican colleagues keep saying it, that doesn’t mean it’s true. No, our bill doesn’t give health care to illegal immigrants – it just stops health care costs from skyrocketing for millions of Americans.

Why is Trump more concerned about getting his ballroom opened than the government reopened?

This government shutdown won't end without trust, and frankly, Republicans have spent ten months giving us reasons not to trust them. They need to come to the table so we can reopen the government and get back to work for the American people.

Don't take it from me, take it from a former Director of ICE – sending armed and masked agents into peaceful neighborhoods is making all Americans less safe. www.npr.org/2025/10/20/n...

To make America healthy and affordable for families, we need to keep costs down, not stand by as insurance premiums skyrocket. www.bbc.com/news/article...
