Donald Trump isn’t busy lowering costs, ending the war, or helping families with gas and groceries. Instead, he’s trying to stir up chaos and figure out how to cheat. But the American people are onto him. @warren.senate.gov

Families are struggling under crushing prices. Gas and groceries keep going up, while health care and housing remain unaffordable. @warnock.senate.gov on how American families are feeling the impact of Donald Trump’s policies

DHS spent millions in taxpayer dollars on Trump campaign ads. @booker.senate.gov is right: Americans see it as more of the same corruption from the Trump administration. And Senate Republicans enabled it by blocking a bill to stop taxpayer dollars from funding political propaganda.

Trump kicked millions off Medicaid and cut kids’ food benefits to pay for tax cuts for his billionaire friends. Now he's promising $5,000 checks if Republicans keep Congress. Americans know when they’re being sold a bill of goods. Their votes aren’t for sale. @captmarkkelly.bsky.social

No matter how Trump and Republicans spin it, September’s job report shows an economy moving deeper into crisis. Higher costs. Higher unemployment. And American families are paying the price for Trump and Republicans’ failed agenda.

$20 million in taxpayer money — pulled from DHS — to run propaganda ads promoting Trump.That same money could pay the electric bills of 12 million Americans for a month. —@hassan.senate.gov

Farmers across the country are struggling because of Trump’s tariffs and Iran War. They know who to blame for higher costs: Donald Trump and Republicans. @baldwin.senate.gov with the facts.

Not an illegal war in Iran, or taxpayer funded commercials to promote himself – what Trump deems wasteful is funding for Americans’ health care and education @baldwin.senate.gov

Trump's favorite word is tariffs. He loves inflation. He wants housing costs to go up. And now he's cutting funding for housing and health care research — money he already signed into law. @murray.senate.gov: "This is theft from the American people, plain and simple."

Trump is trying to cancel $800 million in funding he signed into law. Yet he wants to increase the Pentagon budget by 40% and “restart bombing after the midterms." WATCH @kaine.senate.gov: “this is about priorities.”

@rosen.senate.gov tried to pass legislation simply stating that Trump's trade war against Canada must end. Republicans said no. A drop in Canadian tourism. $3 billion less in U.S. spending. Hospitality workers losing shifts and tips. "This was 100% avoidable. None of this had to happen."

Americans deserve confidence that their representatives are making decisions in their best interest. Instead, Republicans are pushing a toothless stock trading “ban” — written to exempt the one person who made more trades than all of Congress combined: Donald Trump. Via @padilla.senate.gov

Trump has increased costs on everything from health care to groceries. Now, he is using your taxpayer dollars for campaign ads, and Republicans in Congress fail to hold him accountable. Via @booker.senate.gov

Yesterday @welch.senate.gov came to the floor to pass a bill to end Trump’s tariffs on Canada and lower costs. Senate Republicans BLOCKED it. When given the chance to lower costs, Senate Republicans object.

Instead of working with Democrats to bring down the costs of health care or bring down the cost of gas, Senate Republicans are focused on voter suppression bills. Via @padilla.senate.gov

American families are hurting and they're sick of waiting for Republicans to take their heads out of the sand and notice. Senator @murray.senate.gov on how Republican policies are making life less affordable:

Senate Republicans JUST BLOCKED Democrats’ legislation to stop Pres. Trump from terminating health care for up to 2 million Americans on the Affordable Care Act @baldwin.senate.gov on how Trump and Republicans are jeopardizing care for millions of Americans and increasing costs.

Trumps war in Iran and tariff taxes, enabled by Republicans in Congress, have raised costs. The American people are struggling. Republicans and Trump don't have an answer. Via @captmarkkelly.bsky.social

Watch @booker.senate.gov lay out Trump and Republicans’ record: driving up costs for American families and cutting their health care and SNAP.

Senate Democrats @democrats.senate.gov · 24/09/2026
Trump’s war with Iran is harming Americans at home and abroad. Congress could end Trump’s failed, costly war RIGHT NOW. But, once again, Senate Republicans voted to keep it going.

The one thing China can't produce on its own is the cutting-edge chips that power AI and weapons systems. We control those. @warren.senate.gov: “Why would we hand them over?”

Trump wants his name on everything — the ballroom, the Kennedy Center, etc. But his name IS already on something: every diesel pump farmers fill up at. Every fertilizer bill. Every grocery receipt. Every health care bill. via @klobuchar.senate.gov

What are the American people getting out of this summit with Xi? What are they getting out of Trump's foreign policy? And the answer is: they're getting higher prices. —@kim.senate.gov

Americans are demanding action on AI, and Senate Democrats have bipartisan bills ready to stop sensitive American technology from flowing to China. @warren.senate.gov: “Congress could act on them right now”

Senate Democrats @democrats.senate.gov · 23/09/2026
Trump is rolling out the red carpet for Xi while risking America’s technological edge. One thing this president could do tomorrow is restrict our high-end chips from going to China— and not hand over the competitive advantage he claims to care about @slotkin.senate.gov

Trump wants elections that favor his allies, a press he controls, and the power of the presidency turned against his political enemies. Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social: “This is a president who is engaged in a full-scale assault on our democracy.”

Senate Democrats @democrats.senate.gov · 22/09/2026
Trump is focused on the wrong things. Costs are skyrocketing, families are losing food assistance and health care. He's focused on ballrooms and reflecting pools and arches, not the needs of the American people. Via @captmarkkelly.bsky.social

For years, Trump promised an end to forever wars. Now, 200 days into his war with Iran, Americans are paying the price with no end in sight.

Trump promised a “golden age” for the economy. Instead, Americans got “a golden age of corruption”—where families pay more while Trump and his friends get richer. @hickenlooper.senate.gov

Twenty-five years later, we remember the nearly 3,000 people whose lives were taken on September 11, 2001. We honor their families and loved ones, and the first responders who ran toward danger to save others—and those who continue to pay the price. We will never forget.

Trump’s tariffs and war are driving up costs for American families and farmers. Gas prices are up. Farmers are paying 40% more for fertilizer. Diesel prices are surging. When will Senate Republicans stand up to Trump? @welch.senate.gov

How can Senate Republicans and the Trump administration defend this? Their policies have made life more expensive for Americans everywhere—in the classroom, at home, at work, and in our hospitals. This is the economy Trump and the Senate GOP have created.

The national average for a gallon of gas has surged to $4.14. JD Vance wants Americans to be grateful it’s not higher.
