As a light is being shined on Capitol Hill and on abuse of power by elected leaders, I joined more than 30 women who lead national nonprofits in calling for a higher standard for all individuals seeking positions of trust today, and every candidate seeking office. bit.ly/womennonprofitCEOletter
Try as they might, renewables are gaining momentum.
"Last month, fossil fuels generated less electricity than in any March going back at least 25 years, while renewables generated more."

While death and destruction rained down on Iran during the war’s first month, the world’s 100 biggest oil and gas companies brought in an extra $30 million per HOUR in windfall profits.
Yes, $30 million per HOUR.
All because of the deadly and reckless decision making of one man.
Tesla paid $0 in federal income taxes in 2025, despite making $5.7 billion.
This Tax Day, remember that you have paid more in taxes than a multi-billion dollar company—all thanks to corporate tax breaks from Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill.
I'm helping to lead a group of Senate Democrats who are planning to force a vote - every single week the Senate is in session - to end the war in Iran. We have that right under the Senate rules, and we are going to keep putting Republicans on record supporting this insane war.
"Raise your hand if you voted for Trump so his kids could make money off of government contracts."
His sons profit from their investment in U.S. drones sold to Feds for Iran war.
Family corruption has been a defining aspect of Trump’s second term.
This needs to be addressed!

Magyar, closing his speach, now calling for accountability for those who turned on Hungarians. Refusing to be a country w/o consequences.
NEW: Kansas lawmakers override governor's veto to enact SAVE Kansas Act, which will make it more difficult to register to vote, but easier to get purged.
This makes Kansas just the latest state to pass its own version of Trump’s agenda of restricting ballot access and suppressing voter turnout.
A powerful man sexually pursuing a young woman who works for him is oppressive. It immediately limits and reshapes her future to her detriment, whether she is physically forced into it or not. It’s coercion either way, and that is why it’s so wrong. It’s an abuse of power.
Maine is poised to be the first state to ban new data centers. These 11 other states tried and failed.

This is what leadership looks like.

Scotland temporarily ran entirely on wind power as turbines generated over 200 percent of national electricity demand.

“A whole civilization will die tonight” is the most vile thing a US president has ever said, certainly during the post-1945 era when they’ve had the power to kill civilizations with the dropping of a bomb. I’m staring into the darkness. May this not be one of the most fateful days in human history.
Trump has turned the Department of Justice into his own personal vendetta machine. And Pam Bondi was happy to go along for the ride.
We've witnessed the most egregious politicization of the DOJ in recent memory.
And I lived through the Nixon years.
Democrats’ lawsuit to block Donald Trump’s new anti-voting executive order has been assigned to the federal judge who quickly blocked his last executive order on elections — finding that the president holds no power whatsoever to dictate election policy. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
She handled multiple questions from members w facts, poise, & confidence. She also supported my bill to ban convicted felons from purchasing or possessing guns under RI law. Important bc we have a federal admin that is not enforcing federal law. 🤬 #gunsafety @everytown.org @momsdemandaction.org

Inspired by @camilla_r_snyder’s passionate advocacy for gun safety legislation tonight in the judiciary committee. She opposed legislation to mandate arming all campus police officers which would bypass the current approval structure. 1/2
Do you need to know a guy to become a judge in R.I.? Consistently giving lifetime judicial appointments to former politicians has “a chilling effect” on who applies, said Sen. @dawneuer.bsky.social, who has proposed 3 bills to promote merit-based appointments.

"Conversion therapy" doesn't work. It never has and never will. All it does is teach a young person to feel shame for who they are and that repression later manifests into unhealthy behavior. Today's Supreme Court ruling will result in a generation of shame and subsequent harm.
I mean there it is.
Think voting doesn’t matter? 766 votes.
In case you missed it, we are suing ICE for their unlawful practice of conducting warrantless arrests without probable cause.

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash.
ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to.
The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty.
Budgets are moral documents.
