Social Security keeps nearly 23 million people out of poverty, especially our seniors and people with disabilities. I’m fighting to protect Social Security and pass the Social Security Expansion Act to increase benefits. Our seniors deserve to retire with dignity.

Seniors depend on Social Security benefits to put food on the table, afford the lifesaving medication they need, and keep a roof over their heads. I'm standing with our seniors in fighting back against Trump and Republicans' reckless plans to cut down our critical Social Security programs.

Trump’s nominee to run the Social Security Administration couldn’t answer a simple question about whether Elon Musk’s cuts to Social Security amount to benefits cuts for seniors. We need an administrator who will protect Social Security. I’m a NO on his confirmation.

Canada has been a steadfast partner, taking decisive action to enhance border security. Despite these efforts, the U.S. imposed unjustified tariffs, which will raise prices and undermine economic security. We need to focus on the facts of our bilateral trade relationship.

The most immediate threat to Social Security is Donald Trump. From pushing out Social Security workers, worse customer service, and more, Trump is creating new problems and making it harder for seniors and people with disabilities to get their benefits.

Social Security cuts and office closures are causing seniors to travel hours for help and miss checks they're entitled to. Our federal government should be living up to the promise and contract that is Social Security – not cheating Americans out of what they’ve paid into.

NEW: Trump just announced a new “no taxes on Social Security” policy. It’s actually a $1.6 trillion cut to Social Security and Medicare in disguise. The plan would cut Social Security benefits by 25% for the poorest seniors, and give the wealthiest retirees a 46% tax cut.
