I am proud to join my colleagues in filing an amicus brief standing up to Trump’s unconstitutional and un-American attack on birthright citizenship. Let me be clear: If you’re born on U.S. soil, you are a U.S. citizen. That’s not just common sense—it’s the Constitution.

As of today, it is cheaper to import a fully-built computer than it is to import the parts and build it in the U.S. Just an incredible strategy to bring assembly lines back to the U.S.

Imagine being a small business with debt, that you used to import products you had manufactured in china. In the time it took to make the products, tariffs were added, that more than doubled your cost. They are crushed Are there any states offering support for their businesses ?

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov :: you better not be playing cute with your language about stopping the SAVE Act. I hope you intend to VOTE NO ON CLOTURE, as opposed to what you did with the CR when you told us you'd vote no on the bill, but still voted YES on cloture. We are in no mood for games.

Tariffs? Out of control. Prices? Skyrocketing. Emergency powers? He’s abusing them. And yet… not a single question about whether he’s even fit to serve. The math ain’t mathing.

A third-grader found an unsecured handgun at home, put it in his backpack, headed school, and unintentionally pulled the trigger. Thankfully, no one was injured. This is a prime example of why it's so critical to keep firearms locked, unloaded, and out of reach of children. #EndFamilyFire

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

Stock market decimated. Bond yields skyrocketing. Dollar declining and prices up. The most self-destructive, wealth-destroying act of any modern administration. Businesses have lost all confidence. Today, I am calling for a reset of the President's economic team, beginning with Lutnick.

DOGE Oversight Subcommittee held a hearing on reducing federal property. All they said was “fire sale” this, “fire sale” that. Meanwhile, they’re lighting all of this s**t on fire — while their incompetent leader wastes millions of taxpayer dollars golfing, all while steering us towards a recession.
