I’m proud to have received a score of 100 on the @HRC Congressional Scorecard! During the 119thth Congress, we defeated nearly all anti-LGBTQ+ provisions pushed by MAGA Republicans. I’m proud to defend my LGBTQ+ constituents – in this Congress and every Congress.

WATCH: “The viral Kendrick Lamar A.I. video offended a lot of Black Americans, what’s your response?”

On October 16, 2019, I told Donald Trump, “With you, Mr. President, all roads lead to Putin.”

On October 16, 2026, Trump signed an executive order waiving new sanctions on Russia passed by bipartisan majorities in Congress and signed into law just last month.

This decision insults America’s commitment to democracy and our brave men and women in uniform, as Russia helps Iran target American forces.

I join Republican senators in condemning this unconscionable capitulation to a Russian dictator who illegally invaded Ukraine and butchers innocent civilians.

As I have asked for years: What does Putin have on Trump that he would sell out America’s values?

Nikki Haley: “There are certain decisions that will go down as history-defining moments. This is one of them. It's a terrible misjudgment of Putin, who has made it clear he wants to destroy the West. We shouldn't help him do it.”

Mitt Romney: “Do we prize liberty or do we prize power and purse? No more clear test than the choice between Ukraine and Russia. Abandon Ukraine and we abandon liberty. Eventually even our own.”

Thom Tillis: “Beyond irresponsible. What part of enforcing a law passed 86-11 by the Senate does the President and his advisors not understand? It’s unconscionable that this administration is capitulating to a Russian dictator who illegally invaded Ukraine and butchers innocent civilians every single day. If the President wants to actually bring down energy prices, he can do it by solving the Iran problem, not by doing a solid for Vladimir Putin.”

Laura Loomer: “Putin’s goal is to take Ukraine. Then he will take Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, and he will make his way through all of Europe. People obsess over personalities too much. You could have an election in Ukraine tomorrow and Putin would still find a reason to be at war. Russia INVADED Ukraine. Not the other way around. Zelenskyy’s removal from office won’t stop Russian imperialism. It’s not about Zelenskyy. It’s about Putin. It’s always been about Putin.”

John Cornyn: “Helping Putin in Ukraine is reckless. He would not stop with Ukraine and our NATO allies would be next. Putin is fanatically committed to restoring Russia’s glory days, calling the collapse of the Soviet Union ‘the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century’ and claiming Russia was ‘robbed’ in the breakup. . . Congress Must Investigate Trump’s Aid and Comfort to Putin.”

Makes deal with Putin, which he could’ve made with Canada for diesel. Tell Zelenskyy to stop bombing Russia, but doesn’t tell Russia about not bombing Ukraine. lifted congressionally passed sanctions.
What does Putin have on Trump or what does he not have on him America our president is in bed with the enemy.

[Steve Cohen @RepCohen]

https://t.co/KXlFaUq1hQ no doubt when Trump talked to Putin, besides getting the oil we’ll be getting Russian interference in our elections.

Trump is renaming many locations, including the Kennedy center for him so he’ll be remembered after he’s gone. He doesn’t have to worry .Al Capone was remembered after he was gone, and he didn’t have anything named for him.
Like Capone, he will live in infamy.

Mental health is an issue that is deeply personal for me because my father was a psychiatrist. He taught me that taking care of your mental health should never be something to hide or feel ashamed of, which is why I have consistently supported programs that increase mental health resources. On World Mental Health Day, let’s continue building communities where asking for help is met with compassion and support.

@RonFilipkowski Trump has never been honest in this war. He’s always been for Putin. He likes powerful people. He thinks that makes him more powerful cause he’s on their level. He would’ve loved Hitler.

@Jaypers413 @RonFilipkowski There might be 100 he does something every day King Donald

@cspan @SenJohnKennedy He is asleep. He forgets Jim Crow he forgets it took 100 years to get Brown versus Board of Education and now the Supreme Court rolling the voting rights act out and giving a crazy president immunity from prosecution for stepping on everybody’s rights

[Steve Cohen @RepCohen]

@OccupyDemocrats Sean Curtis is a republican. I am a democrat. John Curtis is a good man and has to be commended for standing up on this issue and others with Trump.

Pope Leo XIV: “Someone who says, ‘I’m against abortion,’ but says, ‘I’m in favor of the death penalty,’ is not really pro-life.”

Earlier today, I was recognized for my lifetime of public service by the Black Chamber of Memphis at its “Building Wealth in Our Community Symposium.” I am particularly proud of the work I have done to strengthen the local economy and its Black businesses from bringing a Minority Business Development Agency to Memphis to hosting Federal Procurement Fairs and securing Community Project Funding for the Black Business Association.

Today, I reintroduced the Police Training and Independent Review Act, legislation that would help restore trust between law enforcement officials and the communities they serve by helping prevent police-involved deaths and encouraging independent, impartial investigations into law enforcement officials’ use of deadly force. Too many police encounters on our streets turn deadly, and my community has felt the devastating impacts firsthand. See my full statement here: https://t.co/SAG7TRs5eX
