In response to Democrats flipping control of the U.S. Senate, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:
“Thanks to Democrats going on offense throughout the country, we have held Republicans accountable for their harmful policies, elected real champions for working families, and flipped control of the U.S. Senate. Congratulations to our incredible candidates, our hardworking state Democratic parties, and all of the organizers who put in the work to protect our incumbents, flip seats from red to blue, and put Republicans on defense while expanding the map. With Democrats back in the Senate majority, we will fight to lower the cost of groceries and gas, expand access to healthcare, make housing and childcare more affordable, stand up for workers, end Republicans’ costly war with Iran and their reckless tariffs, put a check on Trump’s corruption, and invest in communities across America.”
