Jeff Bezos has $222 billion. If he paid my wealth tax this year, we could fund insulin in America for everyone who needs it plus free school lunch for every kid in Texas—and have plenty of money left over. And Bezos would still have $215 billion dollars to spare.

@SenatorBaldwin You should be happy. This is the Democrat party’s goal. High energy prices is what YOU and your party wants. Even with the Iran war, which is very temporary, energy prices are lower under Republicans.

My constituents don’t support Trump’s illegal war. Arizona gas prices are already nearing $5/gallon. While this administration spends $2B a day on war, it just ripped away Medicaid and SNAP from millions of Americans. 13 U.S. service members have been killed, and thousands of Marines are now heading to the Middle East—appearing to prepare for boots on the ground. Americans don’t support this. Meanwhile, on day one of this war, the U.S. bombed a children’s school. That’s a war crime. More than 1,200 Iranian civilians have already been killed, and dozens of hospitals, water plants, and oil refineries have been hit—damage that will have catastrophic health impacts for years to come—all after tens of thousands of Iranians were massacred by their own brutal regime. This is just part of what I discussed in this interview with @MSNOWNews. More coming.

$11 billion on Trump's illegal war in Iran. And counting. That no American wants to spend. Where are the billions for housing, hospitals, or health care that the American people actually want?

The Trump administration wants $50 billion to fund the illegal war in Iran. I’m a hard NO. With that money, Congress could fund the Affordable Care Act’s health care tax credits this year and still have $20 billion left over.

Trump said we had to attack Iran because we can‘t allow it “to have a nuclear weapon.” Really? This is the same president who, in June, said: “Iran’s nuclear facilities have been obliterated.” Vietnam. Iraq. Iran. Another lie. Another war.

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.  Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace. I am focused on making sure that every New Yorker is safe. I have been in contact with our Police Commissioner and emergency management officials. We are taking proactive steps, including increasing coordination across agencies and enhancing patrols of sensitive locations out of an abundance of caution. Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

Trump bombed seven countries in his first year. He campaigned as an isolationist but governs as an imperialist. Americans are fed up. They want cheaper housing & health care, not more war.

BREAKING - Just days after Senator John Thune said there was no time to debate and vote on the SAVE Act, it was revealed that senators held a dog parade inside the chamber, bringing their pets in for photos and celebration instead of moving forward on the election bill.

As Trump rambles on, the American people are still waiting for justice and transparency on the Epstein Files. My #SOTU guest, Dani Bensky, was a victim of abuse by Jeffrey Epstein, and like so many of her fellow survivors, she’s not giving up in the fight for justice:

@SenSchumer Democrats should never win another election; you honestly just don’t care about the country. Since you won’t be re-elected anyway, you should go ahead and pass the Save America Act! Leave office on a high note!

Today, Republicans in Congress tried to shovel billions to ICE without any restraints whatsoever AGAIN. Their bill doesn’t even make ICE follow the same rules that as local police officers. I voted NO.

Every federal dollar intended for child care that is lost to fraud is a dollar that cannot be used to support working families who need those services. That is why today’s HELP Committee hearing on fraud in federally funded child care programs was so important. Child care fraud schemes cannot be allowed to continue, and it is incumbent on federal agencies and state leaders to ensure that taxpayer dollars are used legally, transparently, and for their intended purpose.

My Republican colleagues are trying to pass a bill that would make it harder for folks across the country to vote. Why? Because they’re afraid of losing elections. That’s not how democracy works. I’m a hell no.

Passing voter ID has to be done to save America. If not done, the radical left will immediately end the filibuster when they regain power and pass no voter ID nationally, LIKE THEY ALREADY TRIED TO DO. If not for Manchin and Sinema, they would have succeeded.
