  • With Donald Trump, it's ALWAYS families lose, billionaires win. A gold-plated ballroom. A slush fund for his cronies. An illegal war. All while families are getting no relief from skyrocketing prices. I have been fighting Trump’s authoritarianism since day one, with the support of grassroots donors like you who allow me to stand up on the Senate floor and fight back. Our campaign is building the grassroots organizing infrastructure and voter outreach programs that help Democratic candidates u

  • I’m ringing the alarm bells. A president who is behaving like a king. A “rubber-stamp” Congress. And a a deferential Supreme Court I've spent my career in the Senate fighting against corruption and abuses of power, and I’ve now introduced the For Our Republic Act to take on Trump’s abuses of power. I can't win this fight alone. Pitch in today and help me keep fighting Trump's authoritarianism in the Senate >>

  • Donald Trump and his allies are sitting on a staggering $500 million war chest — money that will be used to prop up Republicans and protect their grip on power in 2026. While working families struggle with rising costs, billionaires and special interests are pouring enormous sums into our elections to maintain control and push an agenda that puts the wealthy first. If we're going to take on Trump's $500 million machine, it's going to take all of us stepping up and building the kind of people-p

  • Donald Trump and his cronies are working overtime to rig the system for billionaires and corporate interests. The only way to stop them is to win decisively in November, and that means building a strong, people-powered movement right now. In the Senate, I'm fighting every day for affordable health care, workers' rights, climate action, and the rule of law. But these fights don't happen on their own; grassroots supporters like you power them. Chip in today to help us win big in November and de
