While Americans can't afford healthcare, gas and groceries, Donald Trump was paid $2 MILLION by a South Korean company under investigation by his own Commerce Department. All part of his plan to make as much money as possible while he’s in office.

Gas prices are rising again right as record heat hits our communities and summer travel peaks. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is talking about putting American servicemembers on the ground in Iran. It’s time to focus on the American people.

President Trump's approval rating is underwater for a simple reason. Americans are struggling with high costs, and he refuses to do anything about it. Instead of using tonight's address to lay out a plan to make groceries, housing, or health care more affordable, he spent it

Donald Trump and Republicans say there's no money to help people afford their healthcare. But somehow they managed to cut taxes for billionaires, give ICE $200 billion, and fund Trump's war in Iran. The American people are sick of it.

Today, I voted for an amendment to eliminate $3.3 billion in military assistance funding for Israel in this year's national security funding bill. I want to be clear about why.  The status quo is unsustainable. Prime Minister Netanyahu has used American military assistance

As communities along the Merrimack River continue to recover from the recent sewer main failure in Haverhill, it’s clear that local governments cannot shoulder the costs of expensive water infrastructure projects without reliable federal support. I’m proud to work with

American families are struggling more than ever to make ends meet. They can’t afford the gas they need to get to work, and they can’t afford the groceries they need to put food on the table for their families. Donald Trump’s solution: more war in Iran.

The pipe burst in Haverhill didn’t happen out of nowhere. It’s the latest example of what can go wrong when cities and towns are forced to foot the bill for water system upgrades that can cost tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars. @RepMoulton and I are calling on the

Surprise medical billing can be a brutal shock to folks just starting to recover from a traumatic health scare. It doesn't have to be this way. I was proud to support federal legislation to start tackling this problem, and I applaud @MassGovernor for building on that progress.

Parents want to be able to work hard, put food on the table for their kids, keep a roof over their heads, and maybe be able to take their family on a vacation or two. But with the higher costs at the grocery store, the gas pump, and on utility bills, paychecks just aren’t going

Donald Trump knows he can’t win by playing by the rules. That’s why he’s threatening to prosecute election officials to intimidate the people who oversee state-run elections. Let’s be clear about what’s happening: Donald Trump is trying to influence the midterm elections because
