Visited Project Angel Food’s new campus site today — an expansion that will mean 1.5M+ meals a year for Angelenos in need. Trump has already slashed $500K+ in federal support and is pushing deeper cuts that could take away 600K+ meals a year from those who need them most.

Rep. Laura Friedman Responds to ICE Director’s Decision to Continue Letting Agents Wear Masks – Van Nuys News Press

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 12(source)

The ICE Director thinks it is ok for his agents to act like we live in a police state. Masked & unidentifiable agents throwing residents into unmarked cars is not how democracies work. Without the ability to hold agents of the government accountable, we cannot be worthy of the public’s trust.

Thankful for law enforcement, public safety personnel, and fellow neighbors for standing shoulder to shoulder in our never-ending efforts to make California an even greater place to live.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 10(source)

It was great to join West Hollywood’s National Night Out festivities. When we come together as a community, we’re able to stand up for one another and keep each other safe.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 9(source)

Great to speak with so many of you at Burbank’s National Night Out celebration. Community conversations like these are essential for public safety, and from what I’ve seen in Burbank, there are countless neighbors willing to look out for one another!

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 9(source)

Together, we’ll keep working to make our communities safer by building trust and celebrating our incredible City and dedicated local law enforcement and public safety personnel.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 9(source)

Grateful to all the friends and neighbors who made it to Glendale’s National Night Out tonight, especially the reservists of the Glendale Police Department, who volunteer their time to serve our community.

When the Olympics & Paralympics come to town in 2028, our transit systems need to be ready to move all those spectators and athletes, and I’m proud to continue my work in securing federal investments for our public transit.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 9(source)

It was a pleasure to join representatives from Foothill Transit and Rose Bowl Stadium to tour one of the Transit system’s new zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell-powered buses and the grounds of the beautiful Rose Bowl.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 7(source)

Proud to lead this fight from LA to DC with @repnikema.bsky.social, @chrispappasnh.bsky.social, @smith.senate.gov, @murray.senate.gov, @ppfa.org — and 130+ cosponsors. We’re standing up for healthcare as a right.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 7(source)

The GOP’s Big, Bad Bill didn’t just target reproductive care — it blocked millions from affordable, basic healthcare. Our bill restores that — because no one should lose care over politics.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 7(source)

Care like cancer screenings and STI tests is essential. I won’t stop fighting to protect our healthcare from Republican’s attacks.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 7(source)

Today in West Hollywood, I joined @ppfa.org patients, & healthcare providers to introduce the Restoring Essential Healthcare Act — reversing the GOP’s ban on Medicaid reimbursements to Planned Parenthood.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 7(source)

Had an engaging and productive roundtable with the DGA Leadership Council today. We talked about what’s at stake with runaway production, and my legislative efforts to bring production back to LA and America. Grateful for our partners in the film industry for their insight and constant support.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 6(source)

Thankful for partners like Wesley Health Center for speaking up about the impact of the GOP’s Medicaid cuts, even in the face of Republican lies. Together, we’ll protect and expand affordable healthcare.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 6(source)

Preventative care, cancer screenings, and HIV prevention – those are the critical services at stake in our community. I’m not about to let those disappear without a fight.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 6(source)

On the first stop of my Neighborhood Healthcare Tour, I sat down with healthcare providers from Wesley Health Center who are rightfully terrified about how Trump & Republican’s $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts will affect the quality care they deliver to their patients every day.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 6(source)

I'm very sad to hear the news of the mass shooting at Fort Stewart, which has wounded 5 soldiers. I will keep the wounded service members and their families in my thoughts, and I am hoping for a speedy recovery.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 4(source)

Truly disgusting. This administration makes the case everyday that they don’t care about victims of human trafficking. @HouseDemocrats & I stand with survivors. As we get ready to host the Olympics and other large sporting events, I’ll continue to work to combat human trafficking at our borders.

As State Department office combating human trafficking faces cuts, former leader weighs in

For 25 years, the State Department has had an office tracking the scope of human trafficking and working to combat it. In 2023, more than 133,000 victims were identified globally, leading to more than 18,000 prosecutions. Last week, the Trump administration drastically cut that office’s staff. John Yang discussed more with Cindy Dyer, the former ambassador to monitor and combat trafficking.
