At Pulse Nightclub 10 years ago, 49 lives were taken from us and dozens more were injured in a tragic, hate-fueled act of mass violence.
Today, we honor those who were lost and reaffirm our commitment and continued fight against homophobia, hate and bigotry.

78 years ago, the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act allowed women to serve as permanent members of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force.
With @SecWar intent on diminishing the role of women in our military, I am committed to fighting back and honoring their service.

Today I visited @LonzaGroup’s type 1 diabetes Specialized Modalities manufacturing facility in Portsmouth, NH, where I learned about the fight to develop transformative therapies. I’m committed to supporting Americans with diabetes, including with my bill to cap insulin costs.

From what we've heard, the President’s "deal" doesn't address any of the goals that the President had laid out at the beginning of this war.

We have 13 Republicans and 13 Democrats supporting my legislation to cap the cost of insulin at $35 a month.
Democrats, Republicans and Americans across the country agree: insulin has become far too expensive.
Let's get this bill passed.

No one should have to choose between paying for groceries or their life-saving medication—yet, for those managing diabetes this is all too common.
My INSULIN Act would cap insulin at just $35 a month, ensuring everyone can afford the insulin they need.

The President started a war with Iran and openly admits he doesn’t care about the financial concerns of Americans—but Americans are paying a steep price.
@POTUS was elected to address the affordability crisis, but he’s only made it worse.

It was wonderful to host so many New Hampshire businesses owners for my 15th and final Experience New Hampshire Reception.
A special thank you to the Granite State Ambassadors for their partnership in helping show Washington all that the Granite State has to offer.

With thanks to @SenatorBanks and @SenBooker for signing onto our INSULIN Act, we now have the support needed to pass our bill once it reaches the Senate floor!
This milestone brings us one step closer to capping sky-high insulin costs for the millions of Americans who need it.

Americans are struggling to afford health care, housing, energy and groceries.
And with this Administration’s inflation, wages aren’t keeping up.
The President’s response: “I love it.”

Q: Are you concerned about the latest inflation number?
Trump: No, I love it. The numbers were great. You know what I really love? I love the inflation.

No American should have to sell plasma to afford the insulin they need to live.
I’m working with @SenatorCollins, @SenatorShaheen & @SenatorWarnock on a bipartisan bill to cap insulin prices at $35/month.
It saves taxpayer money and improves lives. Congress must get it done.

It’s been 63 years since the Equal Pay Act was signed into law, yet women are still being paid less than men, earning just 81 cents for every $1 earned by a man.
Equal pay for equal work shouldn’t be controversial, and I’ll keep fighting to ensure it is achieved.

President Trump promised no new wars. He promised to lower your energy costs and tame inflation.
Instead, he started a reckless war with Iran. He’s spiked gas prices. And inflation has soared month after month.
He lied, and it’s the American people who are paying the price.

No one should go without the medication they need because of cost. But for the over 400,000 Wisconsinites with diabetes, the high cost of insulin could be a major barrier to leading a healthy life.
Our bill would change that.
Our bipartisan INSULIN Act that would cap monthly insulin costs at $35 has the support of 22 senators, equally divided between both parties.
It continues to pick up momentum because no one should go broke trying to access lifesaving medicine.

An overwhelming majority of Americans agree: we must cap insulin costs.
My INSULIN Act would do just that.
Proud to add 6 new, bipartisan supporters to this bill. With 24 Senators signed onto this legislation and counting, momentum continues to build.
Let's get it done.

For millions living with diabetes who depend on insulin, high costs remain a significant challenge.
I’m proud to support the INSULIN Act, so Iowans can access the care they need without breaking the bank.
No family should have to worry about affording a medication that can mean the difference between life and death.
I’m thrilled that @SenJoniErnst, @SenatorHick, @SenKevinCramer and @Sen_Alsobrooks have signed onto our bipartisan bill to cap the monthly cost of insulin at $35.
There’s real momentum behind this commonsense plan that Americans overwhelmingly support–let's get it done.
