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.

EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Mike Simpson wants the Kennedy Center to get a permanent Melania Trump makeover

Melania Trump could further secure her place in arts history, if Rep. Mike Simpson (R., Idaho) — one of the House GOP’s veteran appropriators — gets his way.

I’ll keep demanding the transparency and accountability you deserve.

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

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?

Johnson Cuts Short House Session to Avoid Vote on Releasing Epstein Files

I led a letter with my @HouseDemocrats colleagues to demand just that. Read more here: https://jewishinsider.com/2025/07/jewish-democrats-pentagon-grok-antisemitism-elon-musk/

Jewish Democrats press Pentagon about Grok contract after antisemitic meltdown

In a letter to Defense Secretary Hegseth, the lawmakers warned of ‘the risk to American national defense from using a compromised product subject to the whims of an unaccountable CEO’

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

If the @DeptofDefense wants to use Grok, we need more transparency, oversight, & guardrails to ensure that the extremist & unreliable sources it’s using from X don’t undermine our national security.

That’s why I’m a proud co-sponsor of the SCREENS for Cancer Act of 2025, which will expand breast and cervical cancer screening & treatment for those who lack access to these important services.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 21(source)

I am a cancer survivor who was fortunate enough to have access to advanced screenings and treatments that helped saved my life. I want to make sure every American has the same access.

What a pleasure it was to meet with interns from the Armenian Assembly of America! They asked great questions about how I came to Congress, and what I’m doing to advocate on behalf of the Armenian American community. Proud to engage with these future community leaders.

What happened to lowering costs? The very least we could do is protect working people from predatory financial practices. I value people over the profits of banks.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau dismisses $95M overdraft case vs. Navy Federal Credit Union

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, led by President Trump’s administration, has dropped a case against Navy Federal Credit Union.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 20(source)

Trump is turning the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau into a weak shell of its former self, and our veterans and families are paying the price.

As we learn more, I remain committed to doing everything we can to ensure our streets are safe for everyone.

What happened in Los Angeles last night is a terrible tragedy. My thoughts are with everyone who was injured and impacted. I’m grateful to the first responders whose quick action undoubtedly saved lives.

This is a startling breach of privacy. Anyone who pays taxes shouldn’t have their desire to follow the law used against them. Trump’s immigration plans were never about catching criminals – they were always about discriminating against immigrants who are trying to do everything right.

The IRS Is Building a Vast System to Share Millions of Taxpayers’ Data With ICE

ProPublica has obtained the blueprint for the Trump administration’s unprecedented plan to turn over IRS records to Homeland Security in order to speed up the agency’s mass deportation efforts.

Heartbreaking news out of East LA this morning. As we wait to learn more, I’m closely monitoring the situation and praying for the victims, their families, and loved ones. ktla.com/news/local-n...

I’ve been working for years to help Burbank Airport deliver its new, safer passenger terminal, and I’m proud to announce that they’ve received a new $8 million grant to help bring the airport into the 21st Century! Read more about this exciting new development here:

Hollywood Burbank Airport gets another $8M from FAA for terminal replacement project

The airport is critical not just to the San Fernando Valley, but to greater Los Angeles, says Rep. Laura Friedman.

LA is ready to represent America on the world stage — but we need this Administration to invest in transit to move tourists, athletes, and residents. Looking forward to working together to make it happen.

At today’s House Transportation & Infrastructure hearing, Transportation Secretary Duffy committed to partnering with me and Los Angeles to make the 2028 Olympics.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 16(source)

The murder of 20-year-old American Sayfollah Musallet by Israeli settlers in the West Bank is horrifying and unacceptable. I am praying for his family and loved ones. The U.S. must demand accountability to the full extent of the law and act to protect its citizens.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 16(source)

Crypto is a new horizon, & there’s a lot of bad actors & scammers that are trying to take advantage to scam you. That’s why I introduced an amendment to the GENIUS Act that would prevent foreign & unregulated stablecoin issuers from accessing U.S. markets, & improve anti-money laundering measures.
