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.

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.
Today, the House passed the Veterans Law Judge Experience Act, a bill I authored to prioritize hiring experienced Veterans Law Judges.
I was honored to join our community in celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and I am grateful to the Martin Luther King Jr. Committee of Ventura County for bringing us together each year to remember and recognize his life and legacy.
Today, we recommit ourselves not just to remembering Dr. King’s dream, but to living it, defending it, and carrying it forward.
That is why we must remain present, engaged, and unafraid to stand up, speak up, and demand justice.
Dr. King warned us that progress would be resisted, that justice would be delayed, and that power would try to silence truth. His words are more poignant than ever.
On this Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we honor Dr. King’s life and legacy not only by remembering his words, but by continuing the work and refusing to be silent, refusing to be divided, and refusing to surrender our humanity.
Across our country, families are being torn apart. Neighbors are being detained without due process. People are being treated as disposable.
Dr. King taught us that in the face of injustice, silence is not an option. We must remain loud, present, and visible.
We are living in a moment where people are afraid to gather, afraid to speak, afraid to exist freely in their own neighborhoods. And when fear replaces freedom, democracy is under threat.
“Somewhere I read… that the greatness of America is the right to protest for right.”
Today, these words are not symbolic. They are a call to action.
She is wholly unfit to serve, which is why I will continue working with my colleagues to advance these Articles of Impeachment and demand accountability, transparency, and adherence to the rule of law.

Her reckless leadership has hollowed out DHS, normalized lawlessness, and placed lives at risk.
These actions undermine constitutional protections, erode public trust in law enforcement, and make our communities unsafe.
Kristi Noem oversees lawlessness with blatant disregard for the Constitution and the basic rights of the people she is sworn to protect.
This approach is wasteful, duplicative, and risks further fragmenting care for the veterans who rely on VA. I will continue to oppose legislation that weakens VA and puts private interests ahead of ensuring veterans receive the high-quality, coordinated care they have earned. (3/3)
but with fewer guardrails and weaker accountability. These proposals are a clear attempt to undermine VA’s direct care and research systems while funneling taxpayer dollars to private companies with no meaningful requirements to ensure quality or continuity of care. (2/3)
Ill-conceived, Republican-sponsored bills like the RECOVER Act, the BEACON Act, the Health Desert Reform Act, and the Data-Driven Suicide Prevention Act would siphon funding that could be invested at VA and redirect it to private providers to do work VA is already doing, (1/3)
As political violence escalates and threats against public servants grow, this resolution sends a clear message that violence has no place in our democracy and we must stand united in defense of our values and civil discourse.
The strength and leadership shown by survivors, families, first responders, and Congresswoman Giffords continue to inspire me today.
