We don’t want Greg Bovino anywhere near California.

Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino returning to position in El Centro: Sources

Customs and Border Protection commander-at-large Greg Bovino is returning to El Centro, California, to resume his duties as chief of that sector, sources told ABC News.

I’m so relieved that Congresswoman Omar is safe – and I’m inspired by her resolve to continue her town hall after she was assaulted. For years, the Trump Administration has waged a smear campaign against her, and that has consequences. I stand with her and all of Minnesota.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 28(source)

ICE and Border Patrol are killing people in the streets. We need to stop them.

Most American families can’t afford child care because our system is broken. It’s too hard for providers to deliver quality care while making a living wage at a rate that’s affordable for families. That’s why we NEED more federal investment in child care.

Most U.S. families don't earn nearly enough to afford child care, study finds

"Child care costs are just incredibly daunting for all but the wealthiest Americans," one financial expert said.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 26(source)

I’d like to remind President Trump and Secretary Noem that we have a little thing called the 4th Amendment that cannot be infringed upon, even if it gets in the way of your heinous mass deportation agenda.

ICE memo instructs officers to enter homes without a judge’s warrant

The memo, seen by The Washington Post, was included in a disclosure to U.S. senators by Whistleblower Aid, a legal group representing two government employees.

No one is safe from ICE.

ICE agents drew guns on off-duty officer in Minnesota, chief says

Police chiefs in Minnesota said their officers were among those being targeted by immigration agents operating in the state.

Justice for Alex Pretti.

ICE just executed another person in cold blood in Minneapolis. They won’t stop murdering people until we make them. The Senate should block DHS funding this week — we need to stop this brutality and undeniable lawlessness.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 24(source)

California pays BILLIONS of dollars more in federal taxes than we receive in federal funds. I don’t think it’s the Art of the Deal to threaten us when we could stop bankrolling other states.

Trump administration orders review of federal funding in more than a dozen Democratic states | CNN Politics

The Trump administration has ordered a review of federal funding sent to more than a dozen Democratic-led states, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.

Every country should reject this “Board of Peace,” which comes with a $1 billion price tag and inevitable, long-term reputational damage.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 24(source)

Do we need to reform the UN? Yes. But reform should be rooted in cooperation and international law – and reflect today’s world, not 1945. It shouldn’t be replaced with a loyalty test to Donald Trump.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 24(source)

Donald Trump’s so-called “Board of Peace” is a joke. The man behind it has kidnapped the President of Venezuela, launched illegal military strikes, and threatened to take Greenland by force. And the invited members are a who’s who of human rights abusers.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 23(source)

Trump didn’t lower costs on Day 1 – he raised them. And now the damage to our economy could be permanent.

Trump’s First Year Could Have Lasting Economic Consequences

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 22(source)

Liam is 5 years old. He wears a bunny ear hat and has a Spider Man backpack. He poses ZERO risk to anyone but ICE just detained him anyway. This is beyond sick. Another reason why I'm voting against today's DHS bill.

5-year-old asylum seeker detained as ICE expands enforcement in Minnesota

A 5-year-old boy was detained with his father by ICE agents in Minnesota in what some local officials say is the latest instance of heightened immigration enforcement.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 21(source)

In Trump’s first year, California families spent $2,300 more on average due to inflation (@jecdems.bsky.social) Trump promised to “end inflation” but instead, prices have gone up, his tariffs have made things even worse, and he doesn’t seem to care at all ⬇️

"Affordability is a con job by democrats"

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 21(source)

Renaming the Department of Defense would cost taxpayers $125 million. Buying Greenland would cost $700 billion. Donald Trump just gave another $75 billion to ICE. They really don’t care about wasting your taxpayer dollars.

Renaming Defense Department Could Cost Taxpayers $125 Million

I think one of the best ways to honor Martin Luther King Jr.’s life and legacy is to continue our work for justice for all – whether it’s protecting communities under attack by ICE, or pushing for economic, reproductive or environmental justice, or standing up to abuses of power.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 18(source)

Donald Trump is worsening our child care crisis, when 1 in 5 families are already cutting back on coverage or turning to worse options. We need more federal investment in child care (not less!) and a free, universal, and multi-modal system that works.

Parents are cutting back on child care as costs stretch budgets

Research shows 1 in 5 families face child care hardships because of the expense, with single mothers most affected.

Congresswoman Sara Jacobs@sarajacobs.house.govJan 18(source)

In December, grocery prices rose at the fastest rate in three years – but Donald Trump is still calling affordability “a fake word by Democrats.”

Grocery prices see biggest spike since 2022 in December

The jump in costs highlights the challenge for the White House in the lead-up to midterm elections.

Less than 1% of the Epstein Files have been released – in violation of federal law. What is the DOJ hiding?
