My heart is with the mothers and families of those innocent lives stolen, the wounded, and the entire Shreveport community.

I will not tire in our hope for a nation free of gun violence.

I am sick over the shooting in Louisiana — eight precious children murdered by someone who should have protected them.

Today also marks 27 years since Columbine, and in its long, dark shadow, our country has had to absorb senseless, depraved mass shootings — outside and inside homes.

East Penn Manufacturing is the very spirit of American entrepreneurship — a father & son creating a battery business in a one-room shop.

70 years later, they employ 10,000 Pennsylvanians.

I was delighted to celebrate the opening of their new facility in Blandon.

RFK Jr. is proud of the dangerous cuts he has made to our nation's fight against the mental health and substance use crises.

His leadership is incompetent.

These people are not serious — they're cruel.

In what world do the President and Vice President publicly chide the Pope? 
 
We should be looking to his example of compassion, not the chaos and fear dominating this administration’s word and action.

Survivors deserve to be heard.

Two powerful men are out of office because of the courage of survivors.

I'm grateful to RAINN for sharing their stories and pushing for change. We must keep listening and believing.

Always great to be back in a classroom — especially to help foster a love of reading in our young learners.📚

Thank you to Principal Moyer, the devoted teachers, and of course the students at Rupert Elementary for having me at DEAR (Drop Everything And Read) Day!

Montgomery County is a hub for science and medicine, so I was delighted to visit Paratek, a biopharmaceutical company in KOP focused on the development of antibiotics.

I'm thankful for their commitment to life-saving innovation.

House Democrats introduced a War Powers resolution to reassert congressional authority and stop Trump’s war of choice. 
 
House Republicans blocked it — choosing loyalty to one man over their duty to the American people.

Democrats are in DC today to introduce a War Powers Resolution while Speaker Johnson is nowhere to be found.

Service members are at risk, Americans are scared, and the world is on edge over this President’s erratic actions.

We must stop this war of choice.

Our veterans are the very best of us and deserve the resources to lead fulfilling lives after their service.

Thank you to the VFW for their tireless advocacy for our vets — from healthcare to education to careers — and the community they build.

It is time for the 25th Amendment. 
 
Trump is threatening war crimes, forcing the entire globe to wait and wade in his madness. He is unhinged and unwell. 
 
I call on Vice President Vance, all cabinet members, and Congressional Republicans to say enough is enough.

Trump’s Corrupt Pardons May Well Be the Most Corrupt Thing About Him When the Framers invented the pardon power, they never imagined someone like Trump as president. We need to rein that power in immediately.

Trump has taken the presidential pardon power far from what the Framers intended.

Now it’s time to rethink it.

Norman Ornstein and I lay out our argument here.

Today, I visited the Philadelphia Federal Detention Center, now operating as an ICE detention site.

I thank Bureau of Prisons staff for a thorough tour.

As this administration mobilizes federal resources for an inhumane agenda, I remain committed to holding ICE accountable.

The President is demanding $200 billion without consulting Congress — and without the backing of the American people.

No more blank checks for this war of choice with Iran.

This President’s reckless war of choice is putting countless lives at risk.

Americans, service members, and civilians in the Middle East shouldn’t be put at risk because of this administration’s erratic and dangerous decisions.
