All gave some, and some gave all.
On this Memorial Day, we honor the sacrifices of those who have fallen in the line of duty. Our nation is the land of the free because of the sacrifices of the brave.

Trump said he was going to drain the swamp. Instead, he’s Making the Swamp Great Again.
What in the world happened to the “meritocracy” this administration kept talking about?
That work is far from over — and we must stay committed to it.
5 years ago today, George Floyd was horrifically murdered by officer Derek Chauvin. Mr. Floyd’s death sparked a worldwide call for justice, accountability, and real change. We remember his life today, not just as a victim but as a father and member of his community.
This is how we stand up for our economy, our communities, and the rule of law.
California has always led the way — and we're doing it again.
California is the first state to sue the Trump administration over reckless tariffs that make life more expensive for hardworking families and small businesses.
AAPI business owners drive our economy, but they’re also facing challenges and barriers. We discussed the ways that Congress can better support our AAPI businesses and, in turn, boost our economy. Looking forward to partnering with ACE for the betterment of our community.
I had the pleasure of meeting with National ACE, a group representing more than 3 million AAPI owned small businesses across our country.
That's why I'm leading an effort with California House Democrats to demand HHS unfreeze funding for LA County's HIV prevention programs. Congress already approved these funds. It’s time for HHS to deliver.
Read more about my latest efforts here:
The last time the government ignored HIV, it became a crisis. Now, Trump is walking away. We cannot afford to make the same mistake again.
No surprises here — Trump’s still waiting on Putin’s permission slip.
It's not serious policy. It's scapegoating and it'll only lead to more antisemitism and hate.
It’s also contrary to my values as a Jew.
We don't fight antisemitism by making Jews the reason to gut cancer research, or cut scholarships or deport foreign students. What’s happening at Harvard is just the latest in a deeply cynical pattern — punishing universities to score political points, not to protect Jewish students.
Earlier today, some of my Jewish colleagues and I rallied against antisemitism. Regarding the latest abomination from the Trump administration, I'm reminded of the answer my colleague and friend @wassermanschultz.house.gov gave.
This was not an isolated tragedy. It is part of a disturbing rise in antisemitism that we must all condemn and confront.
My deepest condolences go out to their families, loved ones, and all those shaken by this unspeakable loss.
I am heartbroken and outraged by the brutal shooting outside the Capitol Jewish Museum — a horrific act of antisemitic violence. It stole the lives of two young Israeli embassy staffers — a couple set to be engaged in Jerusalem next week.
Republicans are using the budget to help criminals — wiping out a 90-year-old law that taxes and tracks silencers. These aren’t toys. They’re deadly tools that make it harder to catch shooters. This isn’t fiscal policy. It’s an extremist agenda — and anyone who votes for it is complicit.
That’s new. It means fewer doctors, higher premiums, and countless hospitals forced to shut their doors. Seniors and hardworking Americans are being sold out — and they won’t forget it.
Another reason Republicans are voting in the dead of night — their bill cuts Medicare by nearly $500 billion on top of the cuts to Medicaid. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
