At a time when this critical program faces some of its greatest threats from DOGE and Republicans intent on dismantling, cutting, or privatizing Social Security, I proudly stand with my Democratic colleagues to protect the hard-earned benefits so many in our community rely on.
Today, over 132,000 El Pasoans rely on Social Security, including over 100,000 seniors.
On August 14, 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act into law, creating an economic lifeline for millions of Americans facing poverty during the Great Depression and millions more in the decades since.
The Israeli Government has killed nearly 270 journalists, including the 5 killed today, in less than 2 years.
Mass starvation, indiscriminate killing of civilians, the inhumanity, bloodshed and war crimes must end.
The world - starting with the U.S. - must condemn and end this catastrophe.
What’s happening is a humanitarian catastrophe created by the Israeli government, and it cannot stand.
Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people, not the Israeli government.
People are starving right now. Providing food, water, and medical aid should be Israel’s priority - not enforcing an illegal and brutal occupation.

Impeached Ken Paxton and twice impeached Donald Trump are threatening to send the FBI after Texas House Democrats. It’s an illegal, authoritarian move that will not stand. www.tpr.org/government-p...
I'm grateful to all our Texas Democrats working to defend our democracy and fighr these illegal maps and know that countless Texans stand with those leaders being threatened by Abbott.
Instead of focusing on helping grieving families who lost everything in the floods, instead of preparing our state for the next emergency, he's doing the bidding of a president who is afraid of his voters and wants to rig the next election.
Greg Abbott's unfailing loyalty to Donald Trump is greater than his loyalty to Texans.

I’d recommend reading this article which explains how the jobs report works and gives context that overwhelmingly disputes all the shaky justifications Trump has given to justify the firing 👇🏽
amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/08/...
Despite firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner, Trump cannot hide the fact the economy is sputtering because of his policies.
Trump firing the commissioner is nothing more than a wannabe king throwing a tantrum for being exposed to the truth.
Always El Paso Strong.
#ElPasoStrong always.
I had no idea this setting existed!! Thank you so much!
There’s still time for you to voice your opinions.
Tomorrow, the Texas House Committee in charge of redistricting will hold a public hearing. You can learn more here 👇🏽

“I just want to be seen or feel represented.”
We all do, which is why I encourage you to sign up for my newsletter, attend my mobile office hours around the community, or participate in my in-person or virtual town hall meetings.
Check out a sampling of my record 👇🏽

And feel free to compare that record with the Republican Congressman who lives in San Antonio and already represents part of El Paso.
