There’s no one like my dear friend Nancy Pelosi. Time and again, she has made history and changed it for the better. Thank you for your leadership, your friendship, your courage, and your unyielding determination to deliver for the American people.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 5(source)

Leadership is lifting up your community and making sure they are supported. Leadership is not using food as a weapon or a bargaining chip. That’s cruelty. Our region will never stand for that. [2/2]

Today, I joined Elk Grove Mayor Bobbie Singh-Allen, Councilmember Rod Brewer, and our fellow community members at Elk Grove Food Bank Services to distribute food to our neighbors in their time of need. [1/2]

Thank you to River City Food Bank for all you do to make sure our most vulnerable Sacramentans are fed and have access to crucial resources. It was an honor to join you today and stand side-by-side to make sure our neighbors are supported. I’ll always have your back.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

I am here for the people of Sacramento. The people of Sacramento are standing up for each other. My Democratic colleagues and I are united to make sure no family goes hungry and no one is priced out of the health care they deserve. [2/2]

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

Using food as leverage is as cruel and un-American as it gets. In Sacramento, we’ll never let our neighbors suffer because Donald Trump and Republicans refuse to do their job. I won’t sit back and let that kind of inaction be normalized or excused. [1/2]

That’s Sacramento. We show up. We take care of each other. And we are going to keep fighting together to ensure every family gets the support they deserve. [3/3]

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

Today, I joined Assemblymember Stephanie Nguyen at Asian Resources Inc. to help provide food assistance to our neighbors. What Assemblymember Nguyen and her team are doing is incredible. Every week this month, they will be at ARI to support our community in their time of need. [2/3]

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

As the Republican shutdown drags on, the Trump Administration is doubling down on their cruel choice to ignore a federal court order demanding they provide SNAP benefits for November. They may be willing to abandon vulnerable Americans, but my Democratic colleagues and I will not. [1/3]

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 4(source)

I’m grateful to Amber Stott of the Food Literacy Center and Sam Greenlee of Alchemist CDC for stepping up when our neighbors need it most. They truly reflect Sacramento’s spirit of care and community—and I’ll always work to make sure they have the resources to continue their vital mission.

The Trump administration has made a deliberate choice to not feed the American people. Even when directed by a judge to do so—they’re still doing the bare minimum to support the most vulnerable Americans. I will never stop calling them out and fighting to keep food on your table.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 3(source)

As this flag flies over City Hall, it will stand as a promise; that sovereignty will be respected, tribal voices will be heard, and that we believe in a future built on partnership, justice, and truth. [3/3]

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 3(source)

Wilton Rancheria endured displacement and injustice, yet through it all, they never allowed their culture or their connection to this region to be lost. [2/3]

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 3(source)

I was honored to stand with Jesus Tarango, Chairman of the Wilton Rancheria Tribe, and the City of Elk Grove to celebrate their sovereignty and raise the flag of Wilton Rancheria. For generations, Tribal Nations have fought to be seen and heard in their own land. [1/3]

The Constitution is clear; the President cannot impose his will on our state's elections. This was nothing more than another unconstitutional attempt by the Trump administration to expand their power and control our elections. I am very happy to see that the courts have checked that attempt.

US judge permanently blocks Trump order requiring voters to prove citizenship

A federal judge found that part of the order was illegal because the U.S. Constitution gives states, not the president, the power to oversee elections.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 2(source)

The Great Gatsby is a cautionary tale about moral decay and unchecked narcissism. The Trump administration thinks that’s something to celebrate while they refuse to feed the American people.

Trump hosted 'Great Gatsby' Halloween party hours before SNAP funding lapsed

President Donald Trump has come under fire after he hosted a "Great Gatsby" themed Halloween party just hours before millions of Americans lost their SNAP benefits.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 1(source)

I’m standing united with Congressional Democrats to lower your costs. I’ve always fought to expand coverage and make care affordable, and I’m not stopping now. [2/2]

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialNov 1(source)

Today kicks off #CoveredCalifornia open enrollment. But because of Republican attacks on health care, thousands of Sacramentans are about to face serious sticker shock. If Republicans don’t come to the table and help extend the enhanced premium tax credits, costs will only continue to rise. [1/2]

Covered California’s Open Enrollment 2026: Here to Help Connect Californians to Care Despite Uncertainty Around Federal Tax Credits

Republicans demand “work requirements” for struggling families to access vital Medicaid and SNAP benefits. Meanwhile, they can’t even bother to show up for work for weeks on end. It’s pathetic. The hypocrisy and cruelty is off the charts.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.socialOct 31(source)

It cannot be said enough: the Trump Administration can fund SNAP for November. They are making a conscious choice not to. Republicans have SNAP contingency funds that would keep kids fed this month and they refuse to release them.
