Today we mourn the loss of a true powerhouse and one of my sister Marla's personal heroes.

As someone who comes from a line of social workers, Dolores Huerta was a legend. My heart and prayers are with her family, friends, and loved ones today.

This is unprecedented and unacceptable.

There is NO reason for ICE agents to invade our schools and terrorize our kids. Schools should be safe places to learn— we need accountability so this can't happen again.

Plain and simple, there just aren't enough houses to meet demand— that's why we're taking steps to increase the supply of affordable housing across the country.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester @bluntrochester.senate.gov Oct 8

We’ve put in work to address the affordable housing crisis, but we need to make sure we keep the momentum going.

My Affordable Housing Preservation and Protection Act will support existing affordable housing and continue the progress we’ve made.

This weekend's nor'easter brought historic floods to Delaware's coastal communities. I'm thankful for the work of our emergency response teams, and I'm keeping all those affected in my thoughts

Republicans control the House and the Senate – if they wanted, we could be taking action to respond to these alarming escalations right now.

Instead, House Republicans are headed home. In this moment that requires real leadership, they're abandoning ship.

Even if there was a 1% chance AI could wipe out human life, we should be pumping the brakes to make sure we have the proper safeguards in place, not racing blindly into disaster.

It's time for Congress to step in and find the balance between safety and innovation, before it's too late.
