We also can’t make deals with a White House that won’t comply with the law that we pass (e.g. after DOGE cuts and pocket recissions), so the deal must include protections like the POCCA Act.
I voted NO on the continuing resolution because it will hike health insurance premiums by more than $3,200 annually for 28,000 people in our district who are struggling to pay their bills–and for 20 million other Americans. 🧵
Twenty-two million Americans are staring down skyrocketing health care premiums, yet TACO Trump reneges on even negotiating with Democratic leaders—this is disgraceful. 2/2

Trump and the Republicans run the executive branch, and have the controlling majority of both houses of Congress. They own any government shutdown. If they refuse to even sit down with Democrats, they’re committing leadership malpractice. 1/2
Shana Tova to all who are celebrating Rosh Hashana. May this new year bring renewal and reflection.
Thank you, Luis, for sharing your stories... and ours. (🧵 4/4)
In 1965, Valdez founded El Teatro Campesino, the nation’s longest-running Chicano theater. His works, including “Zoot Suit”—the first, and only, Chicano play on Broadway—and his box office hit film “La Bamba”, continue to inspire generations. (🧵 3/4)
After a childhood working in the fields of the San Joaquin Valley, Valdez attended San José State University—where he discovered his passion for theater, blending activism and art to challenge stereotypes and spotlight the struggles of migrant workers. (🧵 2/4)
This Hispanic Heritage Month, we celebrate Luis Valdez, the “Father of Chicano Theater,” who has dedicated his life to uplifting Mexican American stories and voices through the arts. (🧵 1/4)
Last week, I joined the 48th annual Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute Gala—a night of celebration, dancing, and recognition of the Hispanic community’s incredible contributions to our country. Together, we’ll keep moving America forward. ¡Mi gente latina!
I voted NO on this continuing resolution. Want to know why? Tune into this #SipWithSam
Control, capitulation and cancel culture in 2025–let’s talk about it. #SipWithSam
Great to have Stanford Football GM Andrew Luck stop by the office today. Wishing the team good luck against UVA this weekend! #GoStanford!
@OpenAI just launched the People-First AI Fund—$50M in grants for nonprofits and community-based organizations. If you're working on projects to boost AI literacy, community innovation, or economic opportunity–this opportunity is for you. Apply before Oct 8, 2025, at the link below.
This week, I met with the U.S. Conference of Mayors to discuss several of our bipartisan bills to mitigate our nation’s housing crisis.
As Mayor of San José, I banged my head against the federal “wall” enough to know that cities need a better federal partner to get more housing built–and sometimes, they just need to get federal rules out of the way.
Sense prevailed over stupidity by a 214-213 vote, and I’m grateful to four GOP colleagues who stood up to their leadership and said this is no way to govern. 2/2
This week, Congress should focus on lowering health insurance costs for families and keeping the government open. Instead, we’re debating political stunts to censure and remove colleagues from committees. 1/2

ICYMI: Senator Alex Padilla just introduced the Senate companion to our SUN Act. Taxpayers deserve answers on how much these National Guard deployments cost.
Grateful to Sen. Padilla for championing this effort in the Senate. Full story via the San Mateo Daily Journal: buff.ly/P162RIa
