The Consumer Product Safety Commission has one job: protecting American families by ensuring their household products are safe. This is what Americans want their government to do, so Trump and DOGE should stay away from it.

Why am I taking a stand against Trump’s reconciliation bill? Because no faith I know teaches that it’s righteous to take away food or healthcare from children and seniors to benefit the wealthiest in our society.

Over the last few weeks, Americans have narrowly escaped air disasters due to system failures and staffing shortages at the FAA...Good news: Trump's focused on air travel. Bad news: He's focused on a $400 million "palace in the sky" for himself, not on your safety.

Delaware's seniors have earned their Social Security benefits over a lifetime of hard work...I won’t let Republicans dismantle the program millions of Americans rely on to retire with dignity.

A friend of mine just got a really tough health diagnosis. I hope you’ll join me in praying for a man who taught us all the power of optimism and hope.

Annie and I are praying for Joe and Jill as they confront his prostate cancer diagnosis. Over his decades of public service, Joe comforted so many of us in tough times and contributed so much to fighting cancer. Now we need to support and encourage him.

Joe Biden has always been a fighter, and I know that won’t change as he confronts this disease head-on. Joe’s faith and family have brought him through tough challenges before and will again. Our prayers are with him and his family as he begins treatment.

Trump is running up millions on the taxpayers' dime for his birthday party while American warfighters are left to sleep on the floor.

This is what “government efficiency” looks like: paying for thousands of tons of food to rot on docks overseas. USAID was saving lives. Trump, Musk, and DOGE are letting people starve.

For once, I actually agree with RFK Jr. But shouldn’t the nation’s top healthcare official be someone we can take medical advice from?.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the man Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress put in charge of the nation’s health systems, doesn’t think he’s qualified to dispense medical advice. 🎯

.0018% chance that a Social Security claim is "likely fraudulent." We literally have a better chance of getting hit by an asteroid. So why are Republicans letting Trump, Musk and DOGE destroy Social Security over it?.
SCOOP: Since SSA installed new anti-fraud checks on claims made over the phone, only 2 claims out of over 110,000 were found to likely be fraudulent, according to internal documents I obtained. The policy has slowed down payments, though. Retirement claim processing is down 25%.

Happy Founders Day to @DelStateUniv! Since 1891, DSU has been transforming lives and strengthening our communities. As co-Chair of the bipartisan Congressional HBCU Caucus, I'm proud to be a steadfast partner in ensuring this brilliant legacy continues for generations to come.

Thank you to all the law enforcement experts in town from Delaware and across the nation for National Police week who came to my Senate Law Enforcement Caucus panel with @JohnCornyn discussing how de-escalation tactics are reducing harm in high-risk situations.

Due process isn’t just for undocumented immigrants. It’s for stopping US citizens from being deported. It’s for you. Trump’s efforts to attack due process for deportations should alarm every one of us.
