Trump’s invoking the Insurrection Act— a real danger, no longer hypothetical or abstract. I demanded passage on the Senate floor of reforms to check his politically purposed domestic deployment of armed forces, potentially turning America into a military police state.

I’m demanding Noem halt her illegal video message, showing on TSA screens in airports nationwide, falsely blaming Democrats for the shutdown. It violates the Hatch Act, making travelers a captive audience for partisan propaganda. My letter is joined by equally outraged colleagues.

Republicans are imperiling lifesaving care with their cuts to Medicaid & ACA tax credits. Thousands in CT will soon lack affordable coverage. Democrats are trying to save it—at the same time as the government reopens.

Republicans are driving our country to a health care crisis & a government shutdown—Democrats are fighting to fund the government & protect Americans' access to affordable health care. I call on my Republican colleagues to join us & find a bipartisan solution.

President Trump is barreling towards a government shutdown. Trump has inflicted destruction on the American health care system, & unless we find a bipartisan solution, Americans will continue to feel the pain of his chaos.

President Trump would rather shut down the government than protect Americans' health care.

It's time for my Republican colleagues to stop bowing to Trump's demands & work with Democrats to find a bipartisan solution that puts Americans' needs first.

I joined The Lead on CNN to discuss my encouraging meeting with President Zelenskyy & the critical importance of passing the Graham-Blumenthal sanctions bill.
