The US-Japanese economic relationship is strong, and as PM 岸田文雄's visit this week shows, only getting stronger. Today I met with Suntory’s Tak Niinami, CEO of one of Japan's largest companies, to discuss how we can make ties between our two nations even stronger.

Recent efforts to increase aid to Palestinian civilians in Gaza are long overdue. I’m committed to pushing for more humanitarian routes into Gaza and access for aid workers to help increase the flow of aid and prevent famine in Gaza.

Democrats and the GOP agree: the federal supervised release system is broken. That’s why I introduced the bipartisan Safer Supervision Act alongside Senator John Cornyn, Wesley Hunt, Sheila Jackson Lee, and others to encourage rehabilitation and reduce recidivism. latimes.com/opinion/story/…

Thank you, AstraZeneca, for the invitation to come check out your solar field and upgrades, and for being such an incredible corporate citizen of Delaware. You bring great manufacturing jobs to the region, while focusing not just on human health, but also environmental health.

I'm heartened to see the number of overdose deaths in Delaware declining, but we still have more work to do to tackle the opioid crisis. We must keep working to improve prevention, treatment, and recovery resources for all Delawareans to avoid more tragic and unnecessary deaths.

While no damages have been reported so far, I’m continuing to monitor the impact of this morning’s earthquake along the East Coast that reached the First State. Be sure to check in with local officials like Delaware Emergency Management Agency (DEMA) and local news to have the most up-to-date information.

I've been saying for weeks: the Israel Defense Forces can't go into Rafah without protecting civilians and increasing aid not expect there to be consequences. While they have the right to go after Hamas, they must do so in a way that upholds rule of law and protects civilians.
