They’re not hiding it anymore. The Admin. is taking aim at Social Security — & now his own Treasury Secretary admits it. They’re aiming to dismantling Social Security behind closed doors.
I won’t stop fighting to protect what millions of hardworking Americans have paid into for decades.

I won’t stop fighting back against Congressional Republicans’ attacks on the key services that Americans have earned and deserve.
Now, Trump & the GOP have gutted Medicaid to the tune of $1 trillion in cuts — all to give tax breaks to billionaires. And their “Big Bad Bill” threatens Medicare funding as well.
60 years ago today, Medicare and Medicaid were signed into law, ensuring that low-income individuals, families, seniors, and disabled people, could access healthcare.
Fewer cancer screenings, STI testing, and reproductive care — that’s the future Trump and the Republicans want. Our bill reverses this cruel ban. I’ll never stop fighting to protect the care upon which so many Americans depend.
Republicans gutted Medicaid reimbursements for Planned Parenthood, resulting in five clinics in Northern California shutting down. Essential medical care for 2 million people is at direct risk. I’m responding by leading a bill with 130+ cosponsors to fight back.
Glendale, get ready for mobile office hours!
If you or a loved one need help applying for federal benefits you’ve earned or have issues with an agency, come by the Glendale Central Library on July 31 between 11 AM and 2 PM to get assistance from my casework team.
We’re here to help.
The U.S. and President Trump must do more to ensure that aid flows freely, hostages are released, and the ceasefire is restored.
Too many civilians are suffering, and far too many children are going without food, water, and medical care. Aid must reach those in need without delay.
Today’s announcement by Israel to open humanitarian corridors and implement daily pauses in military activity is a necessary step and should have come much sooner.

He truly represents the best of Glendale, & makes the Armenian American community proud.
I’m proud to join @schiff.senate.gov today introducing a bill to rename the Glendale post office after former Secretary of the Navy Paul Ignatius.
Paul Ignatius’s remarkable lifetime of service to country & community should be an inspiration to us all.
When flood waters rose in Texas, worried parents & family members reached out to FEMA. Most of their calls went unanswered.
FEMA at it’s best has been their before, during, and after horrible disasters. Secretary Noem is running it into the ground – hurting survivors.
An American working full time should be able to make ends meet.
The last federal minimum wage increase was passed 16 years ago today – and it’s clear the American people have gone far too long without a raise.
That’s why I’m proud to be a co-sponsor the Raise the Wage Act of 2025, which would increase the minimum wage to $17.
@Sec_Noem & the Trump administration claim to love “cutting out bureaucracy”, when in fact @Sec_Noem's has left thousands of Americans with nowhere to turn to in their darkest hour.
That is not acceptable, and I’m committed to making sure we hold FEMA accountable so it never happens again.
My Mobile Office Hours are coming to Park La Brea tomorrow, July 23rd.
Drop by the Activities Center Complex anytime between 12 PM and 3 PM for help with any federal agency, provided by my talented team of caseworkers.
Reposted byRep. Laura Friedman
Natural disasters are more severe and frequent thanks to climate change, and we need FEMA to be stronger than ever.
Unfortunately, Secretary Noem and the Trump Administration are making headlines for all the wrong reasons. T&I Dems read a few before tomorrow’s hearing: youtu.be/XTStYoNga7M
Bold move from Rep. Mike Simpson.
The Kennedy Center used to honor and host giants in arts and music. Next year, they're going to honor whoever kissed Trump's ring the most.
I’ll keep demanding the transparency and accountability you deserve.
Speaker Johnson and House Republicans are running scared.
I joined Rep. Massie & Rep. Khanna’s bill to force the House to vote on the release of the Epstein files. But Speaker Johnson is sending us home early, hoping the whole thing will blow over. What’s he hiding?
