BREAKING: The DOJ spent nearly a million dollars of your money to plaster Trump’s face outside their Washington headquarters. This is exactly why I joined my Democratic colleagues in introducing the Federal Naming Standards Act. Our bill would combat this kind of corrupt, self-serving propaganda.

The Trump admin has admitted in court documents that it canceled billions of dollars in grants based on whether states voted for Trump. This is a blatant abuse of power. Federal dollars belong to Americans, not the president. I'll keep fighting to ensure Californians receive every dollar owed.

The Pentagon is moving quickly to lease land on military bases for massive AI data centers, but too often the extraordinary demand for energy and water comes at the expense of surrounding communities. That's why I introduced an amendment requiring the DOD to fully evaluate all impacts.

When I asked Patti to marry me, she said yes, but only if we joined the #PeaceCorps. Six months later, we were teaching in a remote village in Ethiopia with no running water or electricity. It remains the most meaningful experience of our lives. I'll always keep fighting for the Peace Corps.

I'm introducing legislation to prevent federal buildings from being named after elected officials until 10 years after they leave office. Public institutions should serve the people; not as tools for political self-promotion. Let history decide who deserves that honor, not the person seeking it.

Wait for it... during a floor debate with a MAGA Texas Republican I shared why his bill is bad policy. His amendment would strip California of its authority to set its own environmental policies. While he claims it's for national security, we know the truth: it's to "stick it" to California.

Today's Trump-Saudi nuclear deal is terrible policy. It abandons "Gold Standard" safeguards which increases the risk of uranium enrichment, nuclear proliferation, and a Middle East regional arms race. We need fewer nuclear weapons, not more.

I voted NO on the NDAA, the annual defense spending budget. Here's why:

Secretary Hegseth came before Congress today asking for $67 billion more as the costs of Trump’s failed Iran War pile up: 19 fallen service members, billions of taxpayer dollars spent, and a 40% increase in the cost of gas. My answer is NO. Not another dime for an illegal war with no end in sight.

Trump says Canadian wildfires are caused by "forest management." Why won't Trump acknowledge climate change is fueling larger, hotter, and more destructive wildfires. I'm fighting to tackle climate change and protect California communities from the now all too common devastating wildfires.

Toxic fume events on commercial planes are becoming more common, exposing passengers, flight attendants, and pilots to fuel and engine exhaust, posing serious health risks. @frost.house.gov, @repchrispappas.bsky.social. @apfaunity.bsky.social and I are urging the FAA to adopt new safety standards.

Today, I demanded independent investigations into ICE’s killings of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Johan Sebastian Guerrero, and a halt to deportation proceedings against witnesses. Their families deserve answers, and ICE must be held accountable.

Today, House Democrats and I stopped Republicans' extreme plan to eliminate every dollar for the Peace Corps. Patti and I served in Ethiopia after college, and that experience shaped our lives of service. The Peace Corps reflects America's best, and I'll always fight to protect it.

Support for impeaching Secretary of Education Linda McMahon continues to grow in Congress, after @repbonamici.bsky.social and I introduced articles of impeachment last week. Keep the pressure up and let's hold the Secretary accountable for the future of our students, families, and teachers.

After years of work, the bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, including my HOME Act, is now law. It gives communities new tools to build more affordable housing, expand homeownership, and help lower housing costs for working families. Now let's build.

Housing costs in America have never been higher. Yet, Trump calls the housing bill "a big yawn" and "an unimportant." He says he doesn't think about "Americans' financial situation" and "he wants the cost of housing to go up, not down." Sign the 21st ROAD to Housing Act now, Mr. President!

Trump wants to reinstate the Strait of Hormuz blockade tonight, which will only skyrocket the price of gasoline. This is not a real estate deal, Mr. President. Stop the endless wars!

There is nothing to love about Trumpflation. We don't need reckless economic policies that drive up prices, we need real solutions that lower costs. While Trump may treat our economic challenges like a game, my focus remains building an economy that works for everyone, not just the billionaires.

Behind closed doors, Trump is worried about dwindling U.S. munitions. But he doesn't want the public to know his war and his presidency is a failure. Share this to help more people see what they're not being told.

One year ago, Trump passed his Big Ugly Law. I voted NO. Now, families in Solano and Contra Costa Counties are paying the price: higher costs for health care, housing, and groceries—all to pay for billionaire tax breaks. Republicans wrote the bill. Working families are paying for it.
