Now, new federal procedures set to take effect this month put that access at risk. I'm calling on the Trump Administration to ensure these changes don’t cut families off from genuine, lower-cost prescription medications intended for personal use.

No one should have to choose between paying their bills and filling a prescription. With prescription drug costs still far too high, millions of Americans obtain lower-cost prescription medicines from Canada and other countries for their personal use.

Trump’s behavior is predictable: selfish, chaotic, and ill-advised. But I am confident in the ability of local and state election officials to run a secure and fair midterm election.

There's nothing better than a weekend trip with the family to Schutt's to pick some apples, have a fry cake, and say hello to fifth-generation owner Evan Schutt. A cherished Rochester fall tradition!

Reports of what happened at Cornell are horrifying. The young woman at the center of this case deserves to know when you report a crime, it will be investigated fully and fairly. The New York State Attorney General's investigation is necessary to get answers and seek justice.

Trump says Cornell 7 'won't get fair shake' with Letitia James

President Trump said the Cornell students accused of gang rape "won't get a fair shake" because New York A.G. Leticia James is assigned to the case.

The Constitution is in tatters under President Trump, and sadly, that is what we have come to expect. But we have a resilient system. The courts aren’t going to stand for it, and neither will the American people.

Cold weather is right around the corner, and no family should have to choose between heating their home and putting food on the table. That’s why I joined a bipartisan group of my colleagues in urging HHS to release critical LIHEAP funding to states as quickly as possible.

Trump is trying to delegitimize the election process and, in turn, silence your voice. The whims of one man will not decide our future. We will ensure every eligible American's voice is heard at the ballot box.

Like many New Yorkers, I was watching the Bills game Sunday when a Donald Trump ad came across the screen. I was shocked to see the disclaimer: “Paid for by the U.S. Government.” Your tax dollars are not his personal campaign funds. This is unacceptable and I’m looking into it. Read more:

Donald Trump is banning news networks from the White House because he doesn't like what they have to say. He is trampling on the Constitution. The courts are pushing back, and the American people will too.

Donald Trump is once again rolling out the red carpet for his strongmen friends while American families struggle. It's a pattern and everyday Americans are paying the price—for a costly war with Iran, reckless tariffs, and an economy that’s making it harder for families to get ahead.
