People have a right to be scared. Time and time again, we have watched advanced AI models behave in completely deranged ways. It’s time for serious action, not “voluntary regulation.”

We need real guardrails and real accountability, not whatever this is.

AI companies must track dangerous AI incidents closely and disclose them properly.

It’s not ‘voluntary’ that manufacturers include seatbelts in cars. It’s not ‘voluntary’ that new medicines gain FDA approval before hitting the market. Congress has the ability and responsibility to regulate AI.

Honored to join my colleagues to demand the Department of Interior immediately stop actions to sell off a strip of land in Yosemite National Park to a private developer. This land belongs to all Americans.

Somewhere in America a kid is going to be hungry because Republicans decided to fund tax breaks for data centers and big corporations by cutting SNAP.

Thank you @governor.ca.gov for advancing this essential policy. Congress must follow California’s lead and pass the AI Kill Switch Act.

There is too much at stake. Congress must stay in session to pass meaningful AI legislation.

Next week, Trump MUST get Xi Jinping to commit to the same principle the United States does when it comes to AI and nukes: humans must remain in the loop. Pleased to work on this issue with @markey.senate.gov

Right now, AI companies have the ability to shut down their AI systems. We need to pass legislation to keep it that way.

Humans have to be able to turn off AI systems or agents that go rogue. The “AI Kill Switch Act” would make sure companies building these powerful systems can do just that.

On September 11, 2001, our nation endured the deadliest terrorist attack in modern history. We can never forget the nearly 3,000 people that died during the attack, or the first responders and survivors who have since succumbed to illnesses connected to 9/11.

Instead of lowering costs for Americans, trump and Republicans want to make you jump through hoops just to vote – pushing the SAVE Act and attacking ballot access nationwide.

If Iran is a “failed state,” as trump claims, how does it keep launching missiles at U.S. bases?

Communities should have a say on if a data center will be put in their backyard. trump says communities that opt out are “backwards and poor”.

We must protect American workers and hold criminals accountable. Now it’s time for the Senate to pass this important piece of legislation.

It’s been six months since trump started his war on Iran. Since then, American servicemembers have lost their lives, hard-working families have struggled with rising costs, and we’re burning through defensive munitions way faster than we can replace them.

It is unacceptable that a 4-year-old child can be turned away from a publicly-funded preschool program because of who they or their parents are. Pleased to support @equality.house.gov's effort to protect children and their parents from this disgusting display of discrimination.

Over 15,000 veterans have lost their homes since trump destroyed the Veterans Affairs Servicing Purchase program in 2025. Democratic amendments offered in Committee would have reversed these devastating cuts. Republicans blocked them.
