something’s going on

  The student debt crisis has reached a record $1.6 trillion, folks. Since day one, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos has ignored the needs of students and sided with loan sharks, special interests, and her wealthy friends. Unlike Secretary DeVos, I actually went to public school. An…

least favorite part of my job

  I’ve gotta tell ya, team, fundraising is my least favorite part of the job. But I just got word that Mitch McConnell’s super PAC and dark money network are amassing a $190 million war chest to attack Democrats in vulnerable districts next year. Look, it’s clear McConnell and Republi…

Close the gap

  Team, Unlike a lot of elected officials, I didn’t run for office for money or for power. I ran because I didn’t see anyone sticking up for dirt farmers like me. It makes me a bit different than most folks in Washington. I’m the only working farmer in the Senate, and I don’t think ma…

Dark money
