Yesterday’s Supreme Court decision rejecting the Trump administration’s attempt to throw out 20,000 California ballots was a win for voters. Our elections belong to the people, not a president hell-bent on using the power of his office to rig the results in his favor.

Since taking office, Trump has made baseless claims of voter fraud to intimidate voters and undermine our elections. But Americans aren’t backing down, and neither am I. I’ll keep fighting to protect your right to vote and make sure every eligible vote is counted.

As the U.S. goes to the polls today, I am encouraged by statements from Israeli leaders following last week’s election. They are signaling a potential path forward that could set Israel on a positive new trajectory.

ACA open enrollment starts tomorrow, and Delawareans are facing another year of rising premiums. Republicans and Trump made it worse by allowing enhanced ACA tax credits to expire. Health care should be affordable. I’ll keep fighting for that.

If Trump wants to find the leading cause of government waste, he can just look in the mirror.
 
The Foreign Relations committee found he’s sticking taxpayers with a bill of up to $19 billion to tear down America’s foreign policy apparatus while he and his rich friends line their pockets with cash.

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com

The Trump administration’s efforts to dismantle U.S. government agencies and fire federal workers could cost taxpayers more than $19 billion, Senate Democrats argue in a new report.

While he hopes nobody is watching, Trump greenlit the expulsion of more than 150 Afghans back to Taliban rule, where they will face almost certain persecution, torture, or worse.  
 
Accountability for Trump’s cruel immigration agenda cannot come soon enough.

The New York Times @nytimes.com

Breaking News: The Trump administration has detained dozens of Afghan immigrants in Louisiana — including relatives of those who helped the U.S. military — and plans to deport them to Afghanistan, according to U.S. officials.

Health care open enrollment starts this Sunday, and more Delawareans are facing impossible choices as premiums climb.

Republicans are driving up the cost of health care. We need to act to lower costs and reinstate the ACA tax credits before more families lose coverage or go without care.

When Brent Hershey started raising pigs, gestation crates were the norm. Now, he’s found a different way to do things, and he’s seeing the benefits firsthand.

I visited Brent’s farm to see how giving sows more room to move is boosting production and making sows and piglets healthier.

Eight months into Trump’s war with Iran, twenty-one American service members have been killed and hundreds wounded. Behind those numbers are grieving loved ones and families waiting for them to come home. I'm keeping them in my prayers.

I join the nation in mourning the loss of Dolores Huerta. Her legacy will live on in every worker who refuses to give up on the promise of a fairer future, and every family made safer by the changes she championed. It’s on us all to carry that fight forward.

I’m calling for the Senate to subpoena Elon Musk and investigate his power to shut off a critical service Ukraine relies on to defend itself.

No billionaire should have that much power over Ukraine’s future.

Senator Chris Coons @coons.senate.gov Oct 28

Today marks eight months since Trump launched the war in Iran, and Americans have spent more than $100 billion on higher gas prices.

Trump may think this is a small price to pay – but for families in my state, it’s not. Let’s end the war now and get serious about bringing down costs.

Senate Democrats @democrats.senate.gov

Trump bragged about hundreds of billions of dollars flowing to the oil and gas industry. @coons.senate.gov: But the average American is paying more at the pump. “And they recognize that Republican policies have made those costs go up.”
