DThanks Trump!
Florida has about 1.5 million veterans. I’m joining @AngieNixon today to talk about her plan to make sure they get the care they've earned. See you soon, Orlando!
.@AngieNixon has a veterans agenda, and it’s serious: a fully staffed VA, shorter waits, mental health care when veterans need it, and a roof over every veteran's head. On November 3, let’s elect Angie, take back the Senate, and protect our vets. https://t.co/1OgbHIoZLM
Trump is for him. Katie Hobbs is for you.
We have to protect workers in the age of AI. Here are two big things I’m pushing for right now: ✅ A “robot” tax so big business thinks twice before trading workers for clankers ✅ A New Deal-style public service jobs program to put AI-displaced Americans back to work
For 251 years, the U.S. Navy has defended our seas and guarded our freedom across the globe. Here’s to the next 251 years. Semper Fortis!
In case you missed it, I put out a plan to save the middle class and restore the American dream. https://t.co/C8lzvAYSJO
Donald Trump and his allies are trying to scare us out of voting early. We’re not going to let them. Llénala, fírmala, entrégala. Fill it out, sign it, turn it in. https://t.co/Mc6kECuCS8 https://t.co/NUKfEvYmH8
WASHINGTON – Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) joined Senator Martin Heinrich (D-NM) and 14 of their colleagues in introducing a resolution to recognize the second Monday in October as Indigenous Peoples’ Day. The resolution also supports the official designation of Indigenous Peoples’ Day as a federal holiday. Indigenous Peoples’ Day is currently celebrated on the second Monday of October in over 200 municipalities and 17 states. Currently, the state of Arizona does not officially recognize Indigenous Peoples’ Day. The resolution is endorsed by the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI), Navajo Nation, Pueblo of Acoma, Alaska Federation of Natives, National Council of Urban Indian Health (NCUIH), All Pueblo Council of Governors (APCG). The resolution is cosponsored by Senators Ben Ray Luján (D-NM), Angus King (I-ME), Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Brian Schatz (D-HI), Tina Smith (D-MN), John Hickenlooper (D-CO), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), Adam Schiff (D-CA), Alex Padilla (D-CA), Cory Booker (D-NJ), and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI).
Arizona wouldn't be the great state it is without our farmers and farmworkers. Happy National Farmers Day! https://t.co/29n80JZfMj
It’s Indigenous Peoples’ Day—a day to honor the Indigenous communities that continue to shape Arizona's history, heritage, and culture. I’m proud to represent Arizona’s 22 sovereign tribal nations in the U.S. Senate. Today and every day, I’m committed to working alongside them to defend their sovereignty.
One of the best parts of this job is meeting the next generation of Arizona leaders. I was honored to speak with students in the Latino Leaders Program at Chandler City Hall. I may be Arizona’s first Latino Senator, but if these kids have anything to do with it, I won’t be the last.
Es importante que en este país trabajemos y tengamos la oportunidad de lograr el sueño americano. https://t.co/m28dZxOWqt
If Trump can’t get a real energy truce that would be a great out come for Ukraine. If Ukraine survives 2 more winters they win the war. I doubt Russia would honor such a truce, they know time is not on their side.
The corrupt elites are scared, and they should be. The people of Florida are tired of the status quo and ready for a fighter who will put working families back on top. That’s exactly why I’m proud to endorse @AngieNixon for U.S. Senate. Let’s win this. https://t.co/9D5VRoC3NQ
Russia gave Iran intel to target our forces in the Gulf, prolonging the war and driving diesel costs higher. Then they “cut a deal” to get their sanctions lifted to ease the diesel crisis. Trump is a fucking chump.
This is what it looks like when we trust the guys profiting off AI to regulate it themselves. They’re preparing for the aftermath of a catastrophe, not preventing one. We need immediate Congressional oversight to protect humanity.
Trump’s diesel “deal”will give Russia the money to continue attacking Ukraine. .@SecRubio this will go down as one of the biggest betrayals and failures. The world is stunned at the stunning stupidity of this move.
The president is trying to intimidate us out of voting. Across the country, ICE has been racially profiling and detaining hundreds of U.S. citizens. Show Trump his fear theater won't work. Tu boleta es tu voz, úsala. https://t.co/uanxIKv21i
Lawsuit declares that HUD’s attempt to significantly transform the FHIP program violates the law and Congressional intent WASHINGTON – This week, Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) joined Senators Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Cory Booker (D-NJ), and 18 of their Democratic colleagues in submitting an amicus brief supporting a federal judge’s ruling that the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) unlawfully restricted funding to groups that investigate and enforce laws against housing discrimination. The amicus filed argues that HUD’s unprecedented attempt to direct $46 million away from the Fair Housing Initiatives Program (FHIP) — while diverting an additional $10 million to government agencies with separate appropriations — has no lawful justification and would harm the nation’s fair housing enforcement infrastructure. The senators submitted the brief to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit in the case of Massachusetts Fair Housing Center; National Fair Housing Alliance v. Department of Housing and Urban Development. “Congress intended FHIP to foster a nationwide network of private organizations, like Plaintiffs, that can aid the federal government in uncovering and eliminating housing discrimination. Since Congress piloted FHIP in 1988 and codified it in 1992, FHIP has consistently sustained private fair housing organizations through three grant streams: the Private Enforcement Initiative (‘PEI’) to support investigative and enforcement activities; the Education and Outreach Initiative (‘EOI’); and the Fair Housing Organization Initiative (‘FHOI’) to build organizational capacity. With this funding, private organizations handle most housing discrimination complaints and enforcement nationwide,” the senators said. “HUD’s July 2, 2026, Notices of Funding Opportunity (‘NOFOs’) endanger fair housing organizations and their vital work. The NOFOs deviate from FHIP’s authorizing statute, decades of FHIP practice, and Congress’s intent. For the first time since FHIP’s codification in 1992, the FY2025 NOFOs provide no new awards for PEI or EOI—the lifeblood of fair housing organizations—nor do they fulfill existing multi-year PEI awards,” the senators continued. “These unprecedented actions have no lawful justification and would seriously harm the nation’s fair housing enforcement infrastructure. The district court rightly vacated HUD’s unlawful notices and directed funding to flow under the prior framework. HUD’s request to stay that well-founded order should be denied.” “The Doles Memo’s stated aims are misleading and contrary to FHIP’s purposes as well. […] Worse, the Doles Memo treats fair housing organizations like maligned welfare recipients—charging them with ‘perpetual dependence’ on federal funding. FHIP’s goal always has been to sustain these organizations as a vital organ of the fair housing enforcement system, particularly in areas underserved without federal resources. HUD’s NOFOs, if unaddressed, would set fair housing enforcement back decades. Defendants’ Motion for Stay should be denied,” the senators concluded. In addition to Senators Gallego, Van Hollen, and Booker, the amicus brief was submitted by Senators Patty Murray (D-WA), Jack Reed (D-RI), Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Mark Warner (D-VA), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Richard Blumenthal (D-CN), Brian Schatz (D-HI), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Edward Markey (D-MA), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Tina Smith (D-MN), Raphael Warnock (D-GA), Peter Welch (D-VT), Andy Kim (D-NJ), Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-DE), and Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD).
Trump’s illegal forever war is sending gas prices through the roof. His solution? Handing Putin a payday to the tune of billions of dollars as Russia continues to help Iran target our troops. My colleagues and I introduced the bipartisan NOPE Act to stop Trump from unilaterally easing Russian sanctions. We need to get it done.
The future of 6G and satellite technology will be decided at next year's World Radiocommunication Conference in China. The U.S. can't afford to show up without a lead negotiator. I'm urging Secretary Rubio to name one now. We should be setting the rules, not China.
@AlexanderMcCoy4 Give computation tokens to a version of a Civil Aviation Patrol that they can use or even trade.
@DennisH27411488 I have fought radical Islam, dumbass. Guess who does but public executions? Radical Islam.
For too long, the federal government has let giant corporations, billionaires, and elites write the rules, and now we’re living with the results: costs have soared, wages have stalled, and jobs have left. We need a new plan to save the middle class and restore the American Dream.
