Military personnel and other federal employees in our community are required to forgo their paychecks at a time when too many struggle to buy groceries and pay bills. Until the government reopens, in solidarity with them, I will forgo my salary.
Leaders are unifiers. This is the first President in U.S. history, in the absence of any armed rebellion, to declare war on his fellow Americans. We must not allow this toxic bluster to deepen our divisions.
Trump declares war on Americans: "Our history is filled with military heroes who took on all enemies foreign and domestic. That's what the oath says -- foreign and domestic. Well we also have domestic."
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.
On National Public Lands Day, we celebrate the natural spaces that make our nation extraordinary. My bill to protect Scarper Ridge as part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area will help ensure our community has a lasting place in the National Park System.
Whether advancing educational opportunity, reforming the juvenile justice system, or standing with East Side residents for environmental and housing justice, her leadership is rooted in love for community.
She led the fight for district elections to give San José’s diverse communities a stronger voice. She became instrumental in launching the county’s—and the nation’s— first universal children’s health insurance program.
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. 🧵
A major driver of our housing crisis is the lack of supply, even as vacant office buildings and empty strip malls sit waiting for new life. Rep. Fitzpatrick, Rep. Salazar, @repjohnnyo.bsky.social, and I introduced the RESIDE Act to help communities transform idle spaces into affordable housing.
For families who rely on a strong social safety net, United Way Bay Area is a lifeline. On today’s #SipWithSam, learn how funding freezes threaten their ability to people stay afloat.
Federal cuts are threatening local organizations that serve as a lifeline for our neighbors. Today on #SipWithSam, hear how CSA is being impacted by illegal impoundments and what’s at stake for our community.
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.
