Stopped by Dialog Cafe in West Hollywood to experience one of LA’s most dazzling small businesses. I had a great conversation with Tadeh, one of the owners, about Dialog's history and incredible presence in the community, and the pressures on small businesses caused by tariffs. (1/2)
I just left the floor of the House, where I refused to rubber-stamp the same Republican agenda that got us into this shutdown mess and created a healthcare crisis. My vote reflects my commitment to my constituents. I won’t stop fighting until this nation treats healthcare as a human right.
Over the 43 days of this shutdown, House Republicans refused to negotiate or even show up in D.C., went out of their way to take food assistance away from millions of Americans to try to pressure Democrats, and made your healthcare more expensive to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.
I had the great honor of speaking to students, families, & veterans at Our Lady of Lourdes during their Veterans Day ceremony. Thank you to all those who served our nation. I’ll keep working to make sure you get the support you’ve earned and deserve.
Happy Veteran’s Day! Every day, but especially today, we honor the men and women of our armed forces who sacrificed for our nation. I am committed to ensuring that our veterans receive the benefits and resources they deserve.
I said it on Fox News today and I’ll say it again: I won’t rubber stamp a Republican agenda that rips healthcare from millions of Americans. If the bill coming from the Senate takes away your ability to see a doctor and afford your medications, I’m a no.
Great to spend time with the Burbank community the State of the City Address on Thursday! I couldn't be prouder of the city's leaders, especially Mayor Nikki Perez, who are doing great work to make Burbank a more prosperous and safe place to live, work, and raise a family. (1/2)
BUT, they never should’ve been cut off in the first place. I’ve been asking to negotiate an end to this shutdown. Instead, Trump is playing political games and threatening to make Americans go hungry.
(2/2) I’ll keep fighting in Congress to make sure young people get the support they need, including preventing essential SNAP food benefits from being used as a political pawn.
Stopped by My Friend’s Place this morning — a lifeline for young Angelenos experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity. They offer safety and real paths forward. (1/2)
A very important PSA: WIC is still open and available to help women and children under 5 years old during the government shutdown. I just toured one such WIC center in my district that is working to make sure those in need get support. (1/2)
This is just cruel. It will do nothing but cause confusion, delays, and in some cases danger for Americans traveling abroad.
SCOTUS just allowed Trump's anti-trans passport policy to go into effect while litigation proceeds. This move is wrong and allowing it to take effect—even temporarily—puts trans, nonbinary, & intersex Americans travelling abroad at risk of harassment, discrimination, & violence.
AP: "Supreme Court lets Trump block transgender and nonbinary people from choosing passport sex markers." Read the full story at the link in our bio. IMAGE: U.S. Supreme Court.
It’s been an incredible honor to work alongside Nancy Pelosi in Congress. I am so sad to see her stepping down, but grateful that I was able to learn from her over the last year. She’s achieved countless victories for the people of San Francisco, California, and our nation.
