Our communities need options to cut commute times, lower costs, and to make it easier to spend more time with family. That’s why I’m proud to co-sponsor the Stronger Communities Through Better Transit Act, which will help improve public transit and cut costs for riders in our communities.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govAug 2(source)

Trump promised to root out criminals. In reality, his immigration tactics are snatching up legal, law-abiding residents and leaving them without any tools to ensure accountability.

Proud to announce that Glendale Community College has just received a $600K federal grant to support cutting edge STEM recruitment & education outreach.Investing in STEM programs helps America remain on the technological frontier, & I’m excited to see this grant in action at one of our own colleges!

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 31(source)

Grateful to Senator Adam Schiff for leading this critical letter demanding urgent humanitarian aid to Gaza. There is more Israel and President Trump can and must do to protect civilians. Upholding our values must be a priority in every response.

Children are starving. Civilian deaths continue to mount. Hostages are still held. Today I led 43 of my Senate colleagues in demanding the State Department work urgently to end the humanitarian disaster in Gaza. This cannot continue.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 30(source)

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.

Social Security: Treasury secretary calls new Trump accounts ‘a backdoor’ way to private the program | CNN Politics

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Wednesday likened the Trump accounts created by Republicans’ massive new domestic policy law to “a backdoor for privatizing Social Security.” Democrats are already ...

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 30(source)

I won’t stop fighting back against Congressional Republicans’ attacks on the key services that Americans have earned and deserve.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 30(source)

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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 30(source)

60 years ago today, Medicare and Medicaid were signed into law, ensuring that low-income individuals, families, seniors, and disabled people, could access healthcare.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 30(source)

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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 30(source)

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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 28(source)

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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 27(source)

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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 27(source)

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. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Israel announces daily pauses in Gaza fighting as aid airdrops begin

Mass hunger is ravaging Gaza's 2.2 million residents, aid groups say, and international alarm is growing.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 25(source)

He truly represents the best of Glendale, & makes the Armenian American community proud.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 25(source)

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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 25(source)

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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 24(source)

An American working full time should be able to make ends meet.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 24(source)

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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 23(source)

@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.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 22(source)

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.
