America’s servicemembers in the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Coast Guard and Space Force put their lives on the line in service to our Nation. These men and women are heroes. Today and every day, we thank them for their courage and service. #ArmedForcesDay
Justice Thomas refused to recuse himself from cases involving the 2020 election while his wife was leading efforts to overturn it.
I’ve got a plan to root out these corrupt practices by Supreme Court Justices and fix our broken judicial ethics system.

Thrilled to be here at NAACP Providence Freedom Fund breakfast to recognize some outstanding community leaders, promising scholars, & the nation's reigning #1 basketball coach, NCAA Division I Coach of the Year @CoachCooleyPC!
Just one of the many ways the Infrastructure law is delivering for our schools.
Great news for Maine – Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funds are on the way to clean up and repurpose environmentally contaminated sites. This significant investment will strengthen our economy and help build stronger, healthier communities across our state. https://www.mainebiz.biz/article/maine-to-get-24m-to-address-brownfield-sites-that-could-be-redeveloped
Happy birthday to my pal @alfranken! Miss you.
Thanks to @SenStabenow’s leadership, a vital bill to help ensure moms and babies have access to the formula they need now was just signed into law by @POTUS. This bipartisan legislation will make a big difference for families in Michigan and across the country.
Help is on the way! @POTUS just signed my bill to address the baby formula shortage into law. It’ll make sure moms and babies can still get the formula they need, and guarantee manufacturers have a plan in place to keep this from happening again. https://www.stabenow.senate.gov/news/president-biden-enacts-bipartisan-law-to-address-baby-formula-shortage-

Pleased that @ODNIgov and @USOPM issued new federal investigative standards for security clearances and other positions of trust. It's an important step forward to modernize an outdated system as part of the Trusted Workforce 2.0 initiative.
To all of those who have served or are currently serving in our Armed Forces - thank you for your courageous service, sacrifice & patriotism for our nation. #ArmedForcesDay
REMINDER: I'm inviting all #WV Veterans to join me for a tele-town hall Wednesday, May 25 at 11AM. I want to hear your questions & concerns about the @DeptVetAffairs AIR Commission's harmful recommendations for our VA healthcare system. Pre-register here: https://sen.gov/K39Q
This is a misguided decision that will continue to erode our immigration laws. Title 42 is a public health policy that undermines border security and Democrats should stand united in opposing it.

My thoughts are with the Gaylord community and all those affected by today’s devastating tornado. I’m grateful that first responders are on the scene and as chair of @HSGAC I stand ready to support federal disaster assistance as needed.
On the 1st anniv. of Jabara-Heyer NO HATE Act, I’m grateful for the important work underway to combat hate crimes&focused on the urgent need for more vigorous action. Hate, racism, violent extremism, white supremacy&more are a cancer continuing to metastasize across the country.

Out of unspeakable heartbreak & sorrow, the Jabara & Heyer families have advocated with conviction & courage for the NO HATE Act. It was an honor to join them today at the White House to see President Biden sign this bill into law.
I’ve seen firsthand how the Brownfields program revitalizes communities. I was proud to join @DonaldNorcross @VicCarstarphen @shawnlatur and others to celebrate the restoration of Camden’s Brownfield sites made possible by the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
Let’s protect wildlife by conserving habitats, confronting climate change, and prioritizing animal welfare. #NationalEndangeredSpeciesDay
Great to join @SecCardona, @TonyThurmond, & @DebraDuardo today to shine a light on the mental health needs of CA students and work to end the stigma around seeking help.

Our COVID relief packages included $190 billion dollars for education and health programs in our schools.
The scenes from Gaylord are just devastating. I’m saying a prayer for all those injured and giving thanks for the first responders and community members who are already working on recovery.

Today’s decision doesn't change the fact that there’s a crisis at the border and there must be a detailed plan that can be implemented before Title 42 is lifted.
For too long, Arizonans have paid the price for Washington’s failure to secure the border.

Title 42 was never about public health. It’s always been an attempt to deny asylum to those fleeing violence and persecution. We must undo the harm President Trump did to our border security and immigration system.
BREAKING: A federal judge in Louisiana has blocked a plan by President Joe Biden’s administration to lift pandemic-related restrictions on migrants seeking asylum on the southern border. http://apne.ws/ogA3Wrl
