ICYMI: If we don't protect the ACA health care tax credits, twenty million Americans will see their premiums double, including more than 24,000 of our own neighbors. I won’t back any funding bill that drives up your health care costs.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govSep 26(source)

This Hispanic Heritage Month, we honor Blanca Alvarado—lovingly known as La Madrina of East San José—for a lifetime of service and advocacy. She broke barriers as San José’s first Latina City Councilmember and later as the first Latina Santa Clara County Supervisor. 🧵

Donald Trump’s latest remarks on immigration sound like a drunk uncle at Thanksgiving—loud, outrageous, and leaving everyone smiling and nodding politely until he finally goes home.
