Whitehouse Statement on the MAGA Wipeout of 2026

Providence, RI –U.S. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse today released the following statement after Democrats won control of the Senate and the House of Representatives in a massive victory for the American people:
“It’s a new morning in America. People from every corner of this great country chose to give Democrats the chance to bring down costs and put a check on this administration’s corruption. We will not let them down.
“This happened because the American people don’t want a president engorging himself by looting taxpayers. They don’t want a Supreme Court, captured by the billionaire class, selling out our democracy. They don’t want a rogue Justice Department and masked goons terrorizing innocent Americans.
“We are ready for the hard work ahead to fix what’s badly broken and set a course for a new, brighter future for the country.”
