The Trump Administration is essentially banning wind projects on private land. Energy prices are higher than ever right now. Why would President Trump actively work against lowering energy bills?

American taxpayer funds are directly supporting foreign military units that are alleged to have committed abhorrent acts of sexual violence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbshgtRq3ao

For the seventh time, a majority of Republicans refused to hold President Trump accountable and end his reckless war with Iran. Our troops are in danger abroad and prices are soaring at home. This war must end.

One in five people who bought their health insurance on the federal ACA exchange dropped their coverage this year. Democrats warned this would happen and tried to negotiate extending the premium discounts. Republics refused, and now working families are paying the price.

I'm thrilled my bill with Senator Blackburn to install baby changing stations across all Amtrak trains passed the Senate. I'll work with my colleagues in the House to carry this bill across the finish line so it's easier for young families to travel.

Republicans think funding President Trump’s ballroom is a better use of taxpayer dollars than Medicaid. I disagree.

Since 1939, Washington Electric Co-op has been providing Vermonters in Washington County with electricity. I was pleased to speak at their Annual Meeting to celebrate their work and discuss my bills that’ll strengthen our grid to keep up with the growing demand for green energy.

I’m deeply concerned by reports that the U.S. military could be supporting controversial Israeli military actions, including the forced displacement of 1 million civilians in Lebanon. Our troops shouldn't be put in a position to be supporting possible war crimes.

President Trump’s policies have forced Vermonters to fork over an extra $2,500 for everyday needs. I toured the HOPE-VT Food Pantry in Middlebury to discuss the rising grocery prices we’re seeing and the need to fight for nutrition programs in the Farm Bill.

Farmers across the country are paying the price for President Trump’s war with Iran. Farmers at Nitty Gritty Grain in Charlotte told me how the price of everything from fuel to shipping fees has jumped, straining their margins even more than before.

I continued my Common Grounds tour with a listening session in Middlebury. I heard from Vermonters on issues from flood recovery, resisting President Trump’s mass deportation campaign, and mending the strained relationship between the U.S. and Canada.

The average price of gas in the U.S. is now up to $4.54/gallon.

May marks Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Month. I encourage everyone to learn more about how the AAHPI community has shaped our history, culture, and success in Vermont and across America.

Family farms are in crisis. We need to end tariffs on our trade allies. We need to provide more assistance after natural disasters. And we need to pass a Farm Bill that gives farmers the price stability they need.

The average price of gas in the U.S. is now up to $4.46/gallon.

Instead of spending $200 billion on President Trump’s reckless war with Iran, let’s give people back their health care. Let’s build affordable housing. Let's build solar fields. Let's pay for child care. Let's help Americans rather than fight an endless war abroad.

House Republicans passed a Farm Bill that will do nothing to help millions of families losing their SNAP benefits because of Trump's so-called "Big Beautiful Bill." I can't support a bill that forces working families to choose between putting food on the table and keeping the lights on.

This country was built on a foundation of free speech. Being President means having a thick skin. You can’t use the power of the presidency to punish those who you disagree with.

Luxury jets, golf trips, and ballrooms. This Administration will use taxpayer money to pay for everything except health care.

I commend the Vermont legislature for passing a law that allows Vermonters to sue federal agents for constitutional violations. Republicans in Congress should take note and join Democrats in passing real accountability for ICE. No one is above the law.

Pay attention to this. President Trump quietly purged over 100 immigration judges and is now replacing them with inexperienced and untrained judges. Many have never practiced immigration law at all. He's trying to take over all three branches of government.

“The U.S. Supreme Court Historical Society has calculated that Magna Carta is cited in at least 160 Supreme Court cases since 1789, not least as the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject to checks and balances.” —King Charles III

Secretary Hegseth is an arrogant and aggressive bully. Bullies always blame their failures on others. Hegseth can’t manage the President’s misguided war in Iran and blames others when you ask him legitimate questions.

Once again, President Trump is using the power of the presidency to go after his political enemies. This is what corruption looks like.

From visiting a historical site, to reading the news, to visiting the fire department, the Good Citizen Challenge encourages young Vermonters to get involved and learn about their community. Glad to meet with Susannah from Waterbury, this year's grand prize winner.

I’m thankful to hear reports that everyone at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner is safe after this security incident and am thankful for the quick response from law enforcement.

If only there was a state in the U.S. famous for having the best granite in the world.

Children around the world have died because DOGE destroyed USAID, all in the name of cutting costs. And now we learn from the Trump Administration that the “close out” costs for shutting down USAID may be $19 BILLION? What an unconscionable waste.

Democrats had very simple asks for ICE reforms: No more masks, enforced code of conduct, end mass targeting. Republicans refused. Instead of negotiating, they started the process of jamming through $70 billion in ICE funding without a single Democratic vote. I voted no.

It's Day 55 of Trump's reckless war with Iran. People in this country can't afford health care. They can't afford housing. They can't afford gas. Every day that Trump refuses to end this war costs billions of dollars that working families in the U.S. need.

This week, Senator Marsha Blackburn and I hosted a roundtable with over 20 artists and the Recording Academy to discuss protecting creators from harmful impacts of AI. We also highlighted our bipartisan bills that makes sure credit and compensation go to artists.

Public defenders uphold our nation’s promise that everyone, no matter their income, can access legal services. That’s why I’m urging my colleagues to fully fund the federal public defenders program in the next budget. https://bit.ly/42oAnOT

When massive media corporations merge, it means that just a few wealthy executives get to decide what you watch, how you get your news, and what you pay. This deal isn't finalized. The DOJ must continue a full investigation into this merger for any antitrust violations.

Big Pharma signed deals with TrumpRx, then turned around and raised the prices of their drugs. They made billions in new profits while you paid more for medications. TrumpRx is a fraud. www.youtube.com/shorts/NKaq0...

Earth Day is an important reminder to protect our one and only home, and by doing so, all those who share it with us. While President Trump attacks our environment, I’m more determined than ever to preserve our planet for future generations 🌎

I'm deeply saddened by the loss of Senator Warner's daughter. Margaret and I are sending love and strength to Mark, Lisa, and their entire family.

The best part of my job is meeting with Vermonters from all walks of life. They come from different backgrounds. They have different hopes and dreams. But like me—they love this state and want to see it thrive.

Thank you to the many states—including Vermont—who carried on with this trial despite the Trump Administration settling and dropping out. Live Nation has been ripping off concertgoers for too long. This verdict is a victory for music fans and a blow against corporate greed.

I just voted to block the sale of 1,000-pound bombs and armored bulldozers to Israel.

Once again, Republicans have blocked our effort to stop President Trump’s senseless war with Iran. How many more lives lost and billions of dollars wasted before they finally stand up to him?

I will join Senator Sanders to force a vote blocking the sale of bombs and bulldozers to Israel. Prime Minister Netanyahu is using them to displace millions of civilians in Lebanon, Iran, and Gaza. The U.S. shouldn't finance civilian suffering. I hope our colleagues join us.

Democrats will give Republicans another chance to join us in ending President Trump’s reckless war with Iran this week. Another chance to protect American troops, save civilian lives, and rein in gas prices.

Remember when President Trump came into office declaring that he was going to cut wasteful government spending? Apparently, that doesn’t apply to the $70 million luxury jet Kristi Noem bought with taxpayer money.

Last week, I continued my Common Grounds listening sessions tour with events in Lamoille, Grand Isle, and Windsor counties. Meeting with Vermonters and hearing the challenges they’re facing shapes every part of my work in the Senate.

How embarrassing for President Trump to go on an angry tirade against Pope Leo simply because he called for peace between the U.S. and Iran. Pope Leo wants to reduce human suffering. The president can't handle criticism, one of the reasons he's unfit to be commander in chief.

Is President Trump crazy? www.youtube.com/shorts/H-sdN...

When you’re in Vermont, you’re never far from a general store and a great sandwich.

Immigrants come to America for different reasons and different circumstances. But like our ancestors, they all believe in the idea of America as the land of opportunity. I was honored to be a small part of the naturalization process for some of Vermont's newest U.S. citizens.

I recently secured $664,000 in federal funding to help Vermonters in Lamoille County prepare for floods in the future. I visited with local leaders to learn more about the tools being funded to better protect Vermonters from the next flood.
