Huge news! This will help us get rid of lead pipes—an investment that is only possible because of my legislation in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

It's past time we deliver clean water for all.

Coming out of the pandemic, air traffic facilities are understaffed—and controllers are overworked.

These are highly stressful jobs that passengers and crew alike depend on for safe flights.

Our bipartisan FAA reauthorization bill will do more to support our aviation workforce.

NEWS: Illinois is set to receive $240 million to help our communities remove lead pipes and clean up our drinking water.

Always proud to see my Drinking Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Act in action!

Clean water is a right. 🚰

By banning most non-compete agreements, the FTC is helping ensure our workers have the freedom to pursue higher-paying jobs, start new businesses and reach their full potential.

Yet another reason why the Biden Administration is the most pro-worker Administration in history.

Let's be clear: putting safety first means Congress must always reject industry efforts to lower pilot training qualification standards.

Thankfully, our bipartisan FAA Reauthorization bill upholds the 1,500-hour rule—a huge win for safety.

Thank you Sen. Debbie Stabenow for your leadership! With my bipartisan Military Family Nutrition Access Act included in your 2024 Farm Bill proposal, we can help make significant progress toward ending military hunger nationwide.

Let's get it done.

Today, Florida's extreme, six-week abortion ban goes into effect.

Six weeks. That's before most even know they're pregnant.

This cruelty is only possible because of Donald Trump.

And he’s proud of it.

The bipartisan FAA Reauthorization bill would help tackle the aviation safety crisis, boost our aviation workforce and make flying safer and more accessible for everyone. ✈️

Here are a few more reasons why we must pass it ahead of the May 10th deadline: twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Yes‼️ It’s long past time we make it easier for new moms to travel with breastmilk and what they need to feed their babies.

REMINDER: Republicans voted against Democrats' cap on insulin costs for patients on Medicare—and now they’re trying to repeal it, which would once again force seniors to pay as much as $400/month for this critical medicine.

I agree with President Biden and these 17 world leaders:

Hamas must take the deal currently on the table to bring about an immediate ceasefire and the release of dozens of hostages who they’ve held for 200+ days while helping alleviate the suffering of innocent civilians in Gaza.

It's a relief this got done—but let's not forget why this had to happen in the first place...

Why the Arizona House even had to try *three separate times* to pass a bill that would repeal a 160-year-old near-total abortion ban...

Trump. Trump is the reason why.

The Flint Water Crisis is one of the worst environmental injustices in our nation’s history.

10 years later, my legislation in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is working to replace lead pipes, deliver clean water and help ensure this kind of tragedy never happens again.

You're pregnant and scared.
You're having a medical emergency.
Your health depends on an abortion.

Whether or not ER physicians can provide you with one is up for debate at the Supreme Court.

That's where we're at in post-Roe America.

And it's Donald Trump's fault.

BREAKING: Airlines will now have to pay you when they mess up.

The Department of Transportation has issued a new rule requiring airlines to give you an automatic refund if your flight is canceled or delayed or if they lose your bags.

It’s a game changer for U.S. travel.

👏 Huge news! It's past time airlines treat us fairly when they don’t deliver the level of service they promise.

This new rule by Secretary Pete Buttigieg and the Biden Administration will help crack down on hidden fees and get folks an automatic refund if a trip is cancelled or delayed.
