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. www.msnbc.com/ana-cabrera-...
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.
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.
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They said it was impossible to cut outdated regulations, protect our environment, and make housing more affordable.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. www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/l...
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.
At my town hall, I heard from constituents who were fired up and angry about Trump's assault on Social Security, Medicare, and democracy itself. I want you all to keep showing up. This is the grassroots energy that will hold the Trump administration accountable.
Not only is Greenland worried America will invade, our allies believe America will abandon them in the face of war with Russia. America and the world is less safe today because of Trump’s reckless, bumbling foreign policy.
We called out the Trump Admin and they backed down. This is a win, especially for due process. However, we know the admin will keep pushing the line and we must fight back every time they overstep.
The Trump administration abruptly walked back its cancellation of more than 1,500 visas held by international students on Friday, announcing a dramatic shift by ICE during a court hearing in Washington. nyti.ms/4lIMsXT
A headline reads: “Trump Administration Reverses Cancellations Of Student Visas.” More text reads: “The sudden shift came as a reprieve for the more than 1,500 international students who have had their visas canceled in recent weeks.”
