Donald Trump promised to “rapidly bring down costs.” Last week, he claimed “inflation is defeated.” Working families know that’s not true. In fact, a new report from Joint Economic Committee shows California families paid $2,355 more in Trump’s first year in office because of inflation.

I voted no on both bills because families deserve real support, honest information, and the freedom to make their own health care decisions. Read my full statement here ⤵️ juliabrownley.house.gov/brownley-sta...

Brownley Statement on Extreme GOP Bills Advancing Trump’s Anti-Choice Agenda - Congresswoman Julia Brownley

Today marks the 53rd anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade, which for nearly half a century provided constitutional protection for abortion and affirmed the right to make personal...

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 23(source)

The so-called Pregnant Students’ Rights Act and the Supporting Pregnant and Parenting Women and Families Act advance a dangerous agenda of government control and bring us closer to a nationwide abortion ban.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 23(source)

House Republicans are advancing Donald Trump’s anti-choice agenda by censoring medically accurate information, stigmatizing abortion care, and inserting politics and extremist ideology into the most personal health care decisions a person can make.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 23(source)

I urge the Republicans who voted against this resolution to reflect on the oath they swore and to start defending our democratic institutions instead of enabling a dangerous and unchecked presidency. Ready my full statement here ⤵️ juliabrownley.house.gov/brownley-sta...

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 23(source)

Democrats remain ready to work across the aisle to uphold the U.S. Constitution, our laws, and the will of the American people.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 23(source)

House Democrats, however, will not be silent. We will continue to call out abuses of power, demand transparency, and fight to restore Congress’s constitutional role.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 23(source)

As Donald Trump continues his authoritarian tactics, House Republicans have chosen to eliminate the rightful role of Congress as a co-equal branch of government.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 23(source)

Yet, Republicans continue to abdicate their constitutional responsibilities, allowing this administration to operate without even the pretense of oversight or accountability.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 23(source)

The American people have been clear: they expect Congress to uphold the rule of law and prevent reckless, unauthorized military engagements.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 22(source)

House Democrats refuse to be complicit in this reckless misuse of power, and we will continue fighting for a future that upholds the foundation and values upon which this great nation was formed. Read my full statement here ⤵️ juliabrownley.house.gov/brownley-con...

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 22(source)

The suffering and trauma inflicted by the Trump administration’s immigration agenda in just one year stands in direct opposition to America’s values and constitutional principles.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 22(source)

Instead of addressing systemic failures, Noem has allowed ICE to function as an unaccountable force, untethered from the basic standards that govern every other law enforcement agency in this country.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 22(source)

Under Secretary Kristi Noem’s failed leadership, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has embraced chaos and fear over due process and civility, cruelty over the rule of law, and political theater over public safety.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 22(source)

I could not in good conscience vote for a funding package that further empowers an agency of masked henchmen acting with impunity to terrorize our communities.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 22(source)

In Ventura County and the Conejo Valley, and communities across the nation, ICE operations have been marked by alarming lawlessness, excessive use of force, and a disturbing disregard for human life.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 21(source)

This is a meaningful step toward delivering a VA benefits system that treats veterans with the urgency and respect they deserve. www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7ue...

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 21(source)

This bill will help reduce the backlog, improve decision accuracy, and retain judges who already understand this complex system. That means more cases decided and fewer delays.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 21(source)

Too many veterans are waiting months or even years for VA benefits decisions, leaving them without the stability and security they earned through their service.

Congresswoman Julia Brownley@juliabrownley.house.govJan 21(source)

Today, the House passed the Veterans Law Judge Experience Act, a bill I authored to prioritize hiring experienced Veterans Law Judges.
