While we often disagreed, we never disagreed on the core principle that we are here to serve our constituents. He was genuine, straightforward, and always himself.
I will miss him as a colleague and a friend. My loving sympathies go out to his wife Jill and family. [2/2]

Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
Doug LaMalfa was a force for Northern California.
He brought committed expertise to some of the most important issues facing our communities, especially forestry and water, and he never stopped pushing for solutions. [1/2]
Trump and his cronies clearly care more about profits for oil companies than the American people.
I will fight tirelessly for the highest level of accountability, transparency, and a much-needed foreign policy course correction. No more wars. [2/2]
While millions of Americans find themselves being asked to pay more for less health care, education, and energy—the Trump Administration has chosen to focus on an unlawful regime change in Venezuela. [1/2]
Instead, the Trump administration wants to garnish wages for student loan debt repayment.
If you’re struggling with student loans, you’re not alone—and my office is here for you. Reach out to us for help. You can also check your options and loan status at myeddebt.ed.gov or studentaid.gov. [3/3]
There are millions of borrowers who are behind and they need help—not more inequity and stress.
That’s why I supported and continue to fight to codify the SAVE repayment plan, the most flexible and affordable option available, so people can stay afloat while building their lives. [2/3]
Higher education should never be out of reach or require taking on crippling debt. Yet for millions of young people, borrowing is the only way to pursue their education while juggling rising costs and fewer opportunities to get ahead.
[1/3]
RFK Jr.’s obsession with pseudoscience is putting everyone at dire risk, especially our children. His resignation is long overdue.
Parents, talk to your pediatrician about how to best protect your families.
The CDC has bypassed expert guidance and all other procedural norms to unilaterally dismantle the children’s recommended vaccine schedule. Now, young children and adults will see increased exposure to:
➡️ RSV
➡️ Hepatitis A & B
➡️ Dengue
➡️ Meningitis
➡️ Rotavirus
➡️ Covid-19
➡️ Flu
My statement on President Trump's illegal military action in Venezuela:
Wishing everyone a happy, healthy New Year!
I am heartbroken to hear that Tatiana Schlossberg has passed.
She inspired me and so many others with her powerful and personal writing.
I send my deepest sympathy and prayers to Caroline Kennedy and the entire Schlossberg family.
I wish you all a very joyous and merry Christmas!
That’s why I'm fighting to ensure the Park Service does not pursue further mass layoffs. I'm glad to work with my colleagues to express broad bipartisan support for our parks and their dedicated staff. [2/2]
Our national parks are essential to our national identity. All over the country, millions of Americans visit these amazing natural wonders every year. Keeping them well managed and maintained requires robust staffing, but since last year, our national parks have lost over 24% of their staff. [1/2]
That's why I introduced the Broadcast Freedom and Independence Act—to protect journalism from exactly this kind of corporate cave-in.
A free press is the cornerstone of our democracy. We cannot allow billion-dollar mergers to dictate what news Americans get to see. [3/3]
When media companies prioritize business deals over journalism, the American people lose access to the truth. This isn't about "additional reporting"—this is about fear.
Broadcasters must resist bending to political pressure. [2/3]
This is exactly what happens when broadcasters bend to political pressure.
CBS pulling a fully reported 60 Minutes segment just 2 hours before airtime—while Paramount pursues a merger requiring Trump administration approval—is a textbook case of self-censorship. [1/3]
Our Afghan community was promised safety and refuge, and I will not allow that promise to be broken. [2/2]
Exploiting a tragedy to sow division and inflame fear will not make America safer.
Abandoning our neighbors who made the courageous choice to stand beside us signals to our current and future allies that our nation cannot be trusted to honor our commitments. [1/2]
