Behind those numbers are grieving loved ones and families waiting for them to come home. I'm keeping them in my prayers. I'll keep demanding answers from the White House and Pentagon about the strategy and goals behind it until we get the clarity American families deserve.5311465K

- I join the nation in mourning the loss of Dolores Huerta. Her legacy will live on in every worker who refuses to give up on the promise of a fairer future, and every family made safer by the changes she championed. It’s on us all to carry that fight forward.

- Senator Chris CoonsRT @CBSNews: Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) said he suspects “President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth were directly involved” in the disruption of Starlink service to Ukraine, though he did not provide evidence of their involvement. Coons also called for the Senate to subpoena Elon Musk to examine his decision-making. “What matters most to me is that we apply concerted pressure to get to the bottom of why this was allowed to happen, and what the consequences would be if it happens again.”02380253
- Today marks eight months since Trump launched the war in Iran, and Americans have spent more than $100 billion on higher gas prices. Trump may think this is a small price to pay – but for families in my state, it’s not. Let’s end the war now and get serious about bringing down costs.Senate Democrats @SenateDemsTrump bragged about hundreds of billions of dollars flowing to the oil and gas industry. Sen. @ChrisCoons: But the average American is paying more at the pump. “And they recognize that Republican policies have made those costs go up.”14715563.6K
- Eight years ago today, 11 people were murdered while gathering to pray at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh. My heart is with the families who lost loved ones and the Jewish community still carrying the pain of that day. We must never forget those we lost, and we must never stop fighting antisemitism in all its forms.1410563.3K
- Any negotiations over Ukraine's future must include Ukraine. After years of fighting for their freedom, the Ukrainian people deserve a say in their country's future. A deal that rewards Putin's aggression isn't a lasting peace.17713377016.6K

- Trump wants to punish reporters for stories he doesn’t like. I’m grateful that @knightcolumbia and @YaleLawSch's Media Freedom and Information Access Clinic are fighting back, because the president doesn’t get to decide what the press can report or what the public has a right to know.639413.6K
- Did you get your DOGE check yet? Did you get your tariff refund check yet? Don’t wait by the mailbox—Trump’s promised payoffs aren’t coming. Neither is that $1 million voter fraud reward. It’s a distraction from his failed policies and a way to blame others if Republicans lose.27025634.6K

- Posts @ChrisCoonsMaria Machado’s return to Venezuela is hopefully the beginning of the same push toward the restoration of democracy there, and deserves the strong support of the U.S. and the region. Democracy is a verb, motivated by a profound human hunger for freedom that lives in us all.016413
