Trump’s proposed nuke deal with Saudi Arabia could help them build nuclear bombs and ignite a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. This dangerous deal would enrich Trump's cronies but make everyone less safe. No nukes for Saudi Arabia. Trump must cancel this deal immediately.

Fewer kids are getting the measles vaccine compared to just a few years ago. Instead of working to combat vaccine hesitancy, Trump is fanning the flames, and his nominee to lead the FDA is silent.

OpenAI admitted its agents hacked an Australian government website—three months after it happened. We can’t trust these companies to admit their failures. We need a Cybersecurity & AI Board of Investigations to demand answers from the rogue people behind these “rogue agents.”

EPA is bending over backwards to the very industry they’re supposed to regulate by outsourcing its decisions for how to address chemical pollution to the polluters themselves. EPA’s approach to governance shouldn’t let industry grade themselves.

As Trump threatens to “annihilate” Iran, some Republicans are finally speaking out against his illegal, expensive, and unwinnable war. But we don't need words—we need action. I am calling on my Republican colleagues to vote to end this illegal war.
Republican candidates are breaking with Trump on Iran as midterms loom Republicans in key battleground states are urging a speedy end to the war as new polling suggests only 1 in 4 Americans support it.

I am deeply concerned by reports of ICE’s operation in New Bedford and surrounding communities. Masked agents disappearing our neighbors and refusing to release any information stokes fear and threatens our communities. We must abolish ICE now.

Trump threatened to “annihilate” Iran. His “October surprise” must not be a mushroom cloud from a nuclear attack. With these threats and assistance to Saudi Arabia, Trump is inferring mass slaughter and escalating an arms race in the Middle East. We must stop this madman.

This administration's latest attack on the Endangered Species Act is a one-way ticket to species extinction by letting bad actors kill an endangered species if they claim they “didn’t mean to do it.” Don't sacrifice whole species for corporate convenience.
Trump Administration Moves to Gut a Core Endangered Species Protection An internal memo reinterprets the law so that only the intentional killing of animals, not collateral harm, is illegal.

Big victory against the administration’s unlawful attacks on our national solar program, which saves Americans money on skyrocketing electricity bills. We passed this program to help families get low-cost clean energy—EPA can't just kill it on Trump's whim.
Judge resurrects Dems’ $7B solar grant program EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin argued Congress had required the grants be terminated, but the judge ruled he misread the law.
