  • Senate, September 30, 2026, 15 wordsBusiness Before the SenateThat Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗
  • Senate, September 30, 2026, 212 wordsTrump Administration
    Well, for 2 years, Democrats fought fiercely to protect the interests of the American people while Senate Republicans fought tooth and nail to shield Donald Trump. We all knew how disastrous this President would be. We set out to expose how Trump and his party were hurting the American people, and we would do everything we could to stop them.

  • Senate, September 30, 2026, 313 wordsRatepayer Protection Act
    Now on the weak data center bill, the only thing that came out of Trump's big AI summit yesterday was a photo op; no Federal guardrails to protect against catastrophic risk, no signal from Trump that he plans to act.

  • Senate, September 30, 2026, 443 wordsStop Insider Trading Act
    On stock trading, only Senate Republicans would dare call a bill that permits Members of Congress to continue to own, sell, and in some instances buy stocks a stock trading ban.

  • Senate, September 30, 2026, 724 wordsTribute to Cietta Kiandoli
    And finally, on a much happier note. Nearly a decade ago, I made one of the greatest decisions anyone in this line of work can make: I hired a top-notch, first-rate person who was so talented in every way. I hired Cietta Kiandoli.

    I announce that the Senator from Connecticut (Mr. Blumenthal), the Senator from Illinois (Mr. Durbin), the Senator from New York (Mrs. Gillibrand), the Senator from Minnesota (Ms. Smith), the Senator from Virginia (Mr. Warner), and the Senator from Rhode Island (Mr. Whitehouse) are necessarily absent.

  • Senate, September 30, 2026, 555 words119th Congress
    20 months ago, Republicans won control of Washington on a promise to bring down costs, make government more efficient, and end senseless wars. But over the past 2 years, Republicans betrayed the trust of the American people. For the past 20 months, Senate Republicans catered to Donald Trump's every wish, but Senate Democrats stood up for the American people.
    That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗
  • Senate, September 30, 2026, 215 wordsCorruption
    On corruption, Senate Democrats have also been unrelenting in exposing Trump's unprecedented corruption. Senate Republicans have aided and abetted Trump's efforts to rob the American people and enrich himself every step of the way.
    That Day on the FloorRead in the Record ↗
  • Senate, September 30, 2026, 476 wordsTrump Administration
    On chaos, with a record so terrible, with an agenda so deeply unpopular, Trump has resorted to sowing chaos everywhere he can--chaos in our financial markets; chaos in our streets, where he unleashed his rogue ICE agents to go after Americans; chaos abroad, where his war has put our economy at risk--all because he didn't think to keep the Strait of Hormuz open when he began.
