Today’s Supreme Court decision severely restricts the enforcement power of Section 2, enabling states to draw maps that dilute minority voting power and undermine fair representation in Congress.
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was passed after decades of relentless advocacy by civil rights activists who fought, marched, and sacrificed to secure the right to vote.
Please take a moment to vote for the artwork you would like to see selected as this year’s champion. The winning artwork will be displayed in the U.S. Capitol Building for one year!

Voting is now live for the 2026 Congressional Art Competition!
Thank you to all the talented young artists across the Sixth District who entered this year’s competition.
Thank you to everyone who made the trip. I look forward to continuing our work together to bring additional federal support and resources home to the Sacramento region.
We had productive conversations about the priorities that matter most to our region, from growing our economy and strengthening infrastructure to supporting families and improving our quality of life.
As the capital region of the world’s fourth largest economy, Sacramento has an important story to tell and a strong voice to bring to the federal level.
It was great to welcome leaders from across the Sacramento region to D.C. last week for another successful Capitol-to-Capitol program!
I am grateful for the swift actions of law enforcement at tonight’s White House Correspondents Dinner & relieved to hear that everyone is safe.
Tonight was about celebrating the First Amendment & our free press. We can never allow violence or intimidation to infringe upon that fundamental freedom.

CAPAC Members Condemn Trump’s Racist Post Against Indian and Chinese Immigrants:
As the son of Indian immigrants, I take great pride in both my heritage and in the country that gave my family the opportunity to build a better life.
The comments shared by Trump on Truth Social about Indian immigrants are offensive, ignorant, and beneath the dignity of the office he holds.

Coming soon on the Betting on America podcast: my conversation with @bera.house.gov — the longest-serving Indian American in Congress — on U.S. economic security.
I will continue working to ensure our federal partners and rural communities have the resources to strengthen long-term resilience, protect our natural spaces, and build a healthier, more sustainable world for our children and grandchildren.
Our national forests are at the heart of our region’s biodiversity. It is critical that we provide the U.S. Forest Service with the support it needs to mitigate risk and respond effectively to threats.
Happy Earth Day!
Earlier this month, I met with forest rangers at Tahoe National Forest to discuss current forest conditions, outdoor recreation infrastructure, and wildfire mitigation efforts.
I am saddened to learn of the passing of my colleague David Scott.
My thoughts and prayers are with David’s family, friends, staff, and all who knew and loved him during this difficult time.
David dedicated his life to serving the people of Georgia, and he will be deeply missed.
They are now being forced into an impossible choice: return to face near-certain persecution under Taliban rule or be sent to a country facing one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises.
The Admin must reverse course and honor our promises to those who risked their lives to support our nation.
This is a cruel betrayal of the Afghan interpreters, special operations partners, and families who stood side-by-side with our troops.
I’m proud to work alongside the CSU to advocate for students and strengthen the future of public higher education in California.
