It’s been great to have so many constituents visit our nation’s Capitol; last week, it was my pleasure to welcome the Yuen family from Mountain View.
ICYMI: I introduced a bipartisan bill with Rep. Mike Lawler to stop the government-sponsored cash grabs that victimize too many older Americans. As we discuss here on CBS, states shouldn’t steal grandma’s hard-earned savings to build sports stadiums.
Great to see a familiar friend, Dr. Cynthia Teniente-Mattson, in D.C. We are lucky to have her leadership as SJSU’s President, as well as students (and future leaders) like Ma'Kayla and Katelyn, who joined her in Washington to advocate for funding for Pell Grants and research.
SJSU fuels Silicon Valley’s progress with more engineering and computer science grads than any other university.
“We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.” - Kurt Vonnegut, Mother Night

Great meeting with veterans, active servicemembers, and reservists at Moffett Field for a discussion about the cost-of-living challenges facing our veteran and military families.
We also discussed the war in Iran, and Pope Leo’s call to choose peace. Can’t wait to see where they go next.
Great to huddle with 7th graders from St. Raymond’s School in Menlo Park during their visit to Washington. Credit to their teachers—these middle schoolers showed up ready with sharp questions about AI’s impact on jobs and education.
While gas prices skyrocket and innocent people die in this illegal war, Trump administration officials–or their very close friends–personally profit by market trading on insider information about wartime decisions. The public deserves the truth—and accountability. www.cnbc.com/2026/04/17/h...
2am update from the Capitol.
Hegseth is threatening a war crime, and it’s impeachable.

A small step, to be sure, “[b]ut let justice roll down like waters/ and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.” Amos 5:24

It's tax day and we've got good news and bad news.
The persistence of ethical violations within this institution undermines congressional integrity and public confidence. In order to fulfill our responsibilities, we must address these transgressions.
Will Rogers mused that, "the difference between death and taxes is death doesn't get worse every time Congress meets."
File your 2025 taxes by today—or request an extension—to avoid penalties.

Happy Vaisakhi! For all who celebrate, may this celebration bring peace, joy, and prosperity to you and your family.
On Yom HaShoah, we honor the six million Jewish lives stolen in the Holocaust, and the millions of others murdered by the Nazi regime. Their memory must compel us to confront antisemitism wherever it appears.
But we also must ask the harder question: for a man long rumored to menace young female coworkers, why did so many powerful people look the other way, and even support him? It is time for a reckoning.
