Next week, Republicans will have another chance to vote with us to end the war in Iran. @SenSanders & I will also call for a vote to stop the sale of US taxpayer-funded weapons to the Netanyah...

Yesterday, I had the honor of speaking to the historic @NASAArtemis crew. I asked MD native & Commander @astro_reid what advice he'd give any young person looking to follow in his footsteps. ...

Yesterday, Israeli strikes across Lebanon killed 250+ people even as Pakistan said the ceasefire it brokered includes Lebanon. Netanyahu urged Trump to start this war, now Trump must demand he hel...

Trump is threatening to commit massive war crimes against the Iranian people starting at 8 pm tonight. He is completely unhinged, and it is long past time for Republicans to speak up. Congress sho...
