Cutting federal Medicaid expansion funding isn’t just bad policy — it’s deadly.
I and House Democrats are united in defending Medicaid & stopping the GOP’s attack on services that hardworking Americans have earned and depend on.

My colleagues on the other side of the aisle know that their proposed cuts to Medicaid will harm working Americans and especially children.
Only a few of them would need to join us to stop the budget bill that robs critical healthcare from working families to line the pockets of billionaires.
@SecKennedy’s denial of basic science around autism is alarming enough, but his efforts to track Americans with it is obscene.
Americans with autism should never have to worry if their private medical records will be used against them, and I’ll fight tooth and nail to protect their privacy.
This is not a “hostile” act. It’s honestly not even “political”.
Americans deserve to know how much Trump’s tariffs are hurting them, and I’ll continue to raise the alarm.
Imagine if this email had been given to a U.S. citizen with no knowledge of their legal rights. That is terrifying.
This isn’t a glitch. It’s Trump’s plan to keep pushing the limits. We must not let them get away with it.
But our work isn't done. We must recommit to bringing every hostage home — including the remains of the four Americans still being held in Gaza.
After 580+ days in Hamas captivity, Edan — a 21-year-old American from New Jersey — is finally returning home.
He endured unimaginable conditions, and I have been inspired by his family’s unwavering strength and resilience. Today, we celebrate his long-overdue freedom.

Women carry the weight of the world on their shoulders, and we so often neglect our own health in the process.
During National Women’s Health Week, let’s focus on women’s health and wellbeing, both physical and mental. Get active, get regular check-ups, and take care of yourself.
In Trump’s America, pollsters are threatened with investigations for telling the truth about how the American public REALLY feels about him.
This is how a wannabe dictator acts.
DOGE & Trump are letting their billionaire buddies cheat on taxes. To pay for it, they’re planning to steal Medicaid and Social Security from hardworking Americans.
We can’t let them get away with it. It’s time for billionaires to pay their fair share.
Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers, grandmothers, and mother figures!
It was never about putting more money into the pockets of hardworking Americans.
Elon Musk isn’t in it for you – he's in it for himself. And all so he can avoid $2.37 billion in potential fines.
In case this fact check hasn’t been provided for you in a Signal group chat Secretary Hegseth:
The Women, Peace, and Security Program isn’t a United Nations program. It was bipartisan legislation that your boss signed into law.
American-made films have captured the world’s imagination for over a century — arguably one of our greatest exports.
To keep making films here at home and support millions of American jobs, we need real solutions — like a national film tax credit.
I’m already on it. Learn more 📺⬇️
In his first 100 days, Trump has managed to:
• Force us into a likely recession;
• Screw up Social Security & wipe-out retirement accounts;
• Gut funding for life-saving medical programs;
• Cancel school lunch programs for hungry children.
Are we great again, yet?
They said it was impossible to cut outdated regulations, protect our environment, and make housing more affordable.
I proved them wrong in California — and I’m excited to bring that same mentality to Congress as part of Rep. Josh Harder’s new bipartisan Build America Caucus.
These cuts don’t just stall the progress we've made. They threaten to erase it. Testing, PrEP, outreach — all at risk. Lives will be unnecessarily lost.
This isn’t fiscal policy — it’s cruelty.
Absolutely devastating.
The Trump administration is abandoning one of the most effective public health efforts in our country, cutting off HIV prevention funding in Los Angeles — where thousands rely on these services.

Trump’s chaotic agenda has made even U.S. citizens unsafe in our own homes.
The Oklahoma City raid shows just how dangerous and lawless his policies truly are.
To say that teachers simply change lives is an understatement. Here in Los Angeles and across the nation, they’re responsible for shaping the next generation, and this week we recognize their endless contributions to our children’s lives.
Take a moment to thank a teacher this week.
