I plan to oppose every cabinet level nominee that is considered on the Senate floor going forward. The recklessness on display has already proven to be incredibly harmful and will only continue, unless we do something. I will do everything in my power to stand up for Delaware.

This plan is plain and simple: reopen the government, and extend the ACA tax credits as-is for 1 year so families don't have to suffer while we work to negotiate long-term fixes. We have the chance to make a real impact— I hope my Republican colleagues will join us.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans have created a health care crisis. And now, they've refused to support the cleanest, easiest, simplest solution - extending the ACA tax credits while we negotiate. Let the record show who voted to lower premiums for American families.

They may not act like it, but even Republicans know we have to take on skyrocketing health care costs. To prove it, Congresswoman Sarah McBride and I got together to connect Republicans with their own words about this crisis. It's time for them to put their money where their mouths are.

The President is stalling legislation that would bring down housing costs, all to try and force us to pass his voter suppression bill. It's never been clearer that this administration doesn't care about us— do your job, Mr. President, it's time to get this done.

Let Me Be Blunt: this isn’t business as usual. Republicans shut down the government and are refusing to negotiate. They’re even holding committee hearings on everything BUT their shutdown. This week, I used my time in those hearings to remind them what’s really at stake.

Let Me Be Blunt: It’s way too expensive to rent or buy a home in this country—this week, we finally took action. The Banking Committee passed a major package of legislation to fast track new construction and give millions a place to call home. Next stop: Senate floor.

When I was sworn in, I was honored to be joined by Ambassador Carol Moseley Braun, the first Black woman to ever be elected to the U.S. Senate. I will always be standing on her trailblazing shoulders in the Senate - and I thank her for her service to our nation.

Gas prices just hit a four-year-high thanks to Trump's war of choice in Iran. After campaigning on 'making America affordable again' Trump has made everything more expensive for American families while spending our tax dollars on ballrooms and bombs. This isn't leadership.

I just stepped off the Senate floor where I've been watching Sen. Cory Booker give one of the most passionate and moving speeches I've ever witnessed. He's calling on us to stand up for our country and fight for its principles. If you're not watching, now is the time to tune in.

Yesterday, in my Maiden Speech, I talked about Bright Hope. For me, Bright Hope is more than the church my grandmother attended— it’s a call to action, it’s what keeps me going in the darkest times. It’s a goal we set for ourselves as Americans.
