If Republicans want to keep blindly following Donald Trump into the abyss of chaos, let them. The rest of America is moving forward.

This was a good night for Democrats and our fight to lower costs, improve healthcare, & reach a better future for families. But more importantly, it was a good night for working people who’ve felt unheard for far too long. Tonight, their voices were heard loud and clear.

Tonight’s results are a repudiation of the Trump agenda. The cruelty, chaos, and greed that define MAGA radicalism was firmly rejected by the American people.

I congratulate @ZohranKMamdani on his well-earned & historic victory. We have worked together on a number of vital issues — like delivering historic debt relief for taxi drivers. I look forward to building on that partnership to keep NYC strong, fair, more affordable & thriving.

Today, we remember. We remember our friends, our neighbors, and our first responders who perished on September 11, 2001. Today, we stand with every New Yorker whose lives were forever changed 24 years ago – and we promise to never forget.

Make no mistake about it: When Republicans passed their budget, they chose to cut health care and food assistance for hungry kids to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy.

In 2026, voters across the country will remember: Republicans in Congress voted to drive up costs and rip away health care from millions of people.

The top Senate Democrat said the law would lead to widespread pain for voters, imperiling Republicans who supported it and allowing his party more openings to contest control of the Senate.

Let's be clear about what Senate Republicans just did: They voted to gut health care for millions of Americans and rip food assistance away from kids – all to pay for a massive tax cut for billionaires.

I have known @ZohranKMamdani since we worked together to provide debt relief for thousands of beleaguered taxi drivers & fought to stop a fracked gas plant in Astoria. He ran an impressive campaign that connected with New Yorkers about affordability, fairness, & opportunity.

Today on Juneteenth, we acknowledge the dark stain of slavery on our nation's history. We celebrate liberty and freedom. And we promise to never stop fighting until we achieve real equality for all.

This ruling's not just the right one—it's vital to keeping our democracy intact. This Trump EO would rip apart democracy. Every court must continue to block it in order to protect our elections. We will keep fighting for free and fair elections.

Donald Trump is trying to undermine our elections – so we are suing Donald Trump. https://t.co/egsBcODdOV

The lawsuit accuses President Trump of vastly overstepping his authority to “upturn the electoral playing field in his favor and against his political rivals.”

Anyone who counted Democrats out was dead wrong. Wisconsin voters sent a decisive message to Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and DOGE by rejecting an extreme Republican for their Supreme Court: our Democracy is not for sale. Democrats are in the fight to keep our country.
