U.S. Senator proudly serving all Vermonters. ⛰️ Husband to Margaret. Hiking and skiing when I can.
- Trump corruption of the day: his UFC cage fight at the White House.
00:00 - President Trump’s goals for his war with Iran have failed.
00:00 - This problem is only going to get worse as AI becomes more powerful and more widely used. Congress needs to address AI and how it can be used to sway our elections. We should start with passing the NO FAKES Act.A political opponent recently posted a deepfake video of me on social media. It was generated using AI and fabricated my voice and image to put words in my mouth. While it represents a new - and dangerous - low, it was not unpredictable. It just drives home why we need to act
- Congress should be working to support programs like this one. Young people need more opportunities. That should include pathways to trades like plumbers and electricians.
- Farmers create an immense amount of wealth. They just don’t get any of it.
00:00 - President Trump loves that you can’t afford your groceries, to fill up your car with gas, or to buy a house.
- Senator Peter Welch repostedAmericans' financial situation has deteriorated because of Trump’s war in Iran. “We've got to bring it to an end. We've got to get inflation down. We've got to make America more affordable.” @SenPeterWelch
00:00 - President Trump is waging a war in the Middle East to appease Prime Minister Netanyahu. American families are paying the price.
- As President Trump signs the Republicans’ bill to give $70 billion to ICE and CBP without any commonsense reforms, I’m thinking of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti. They should still be here, and they deserve accountability.
- Artan was named Africa’s top referee! This Administration’s blunders in handling visitors for the World Cup have embarrassed America on the global stage and violate the President’s word to the World Cup.The U.S. has denied entry to a FIFA World Cup referee from Somalia, citing "vetting concerns." cbsn.ws/441V18h
- 50 people have now died in ICE detention during Trump’s second term. Experts have said many of these deaths are preventable and due to poor conditions. Rather than work with Democrats to make real reforms, Senate Republicans pushed through another $70 billion to ICE.
- Let me be abundantly clear: not only will I vote against Todd Blanche to be permanent Attorney General, he should resign from his acting role immediately.
