The opening of Sacramento State's Basic Needs Center reflects not only the university’s commitment to its students but also the broader principle that access to higher education must go hand-in-hand with access to essential resources. [1/2]

This is completely unacceptable.
Sacramentans need to take notice. Nexstar is trying to double its footprint in our community. I’ll certainly be watching closely. [3/3]
It’s infuriating but hardly surprising that Sinclair will be putting its right-wing agenda ahead of the interests of its viewers. But it’s especially disappointing to see Nexstar put its pursuit of favor with the FCC on behalf of its multi-billion-dollar merger ahead of the First Amendment. [2/3]
I’ll be tuning into Jimmy Kimmel tonight and certainly hope he will be given the free rein he deserves. But millions of Americans won’t be able to because Sinclair and Nexstar have taken him off the air. [1/3]
That’s why I’ve demanded an inspector general investigation and why Congress must pass my Broadcast Freedom and Independence Act to end Trump’s censorship campaign and protect the First Amendment rights of every American. [3/3]
The sequence is unmistakable – government pressure, then suddenly a show critical of Trump disappears from local TV. When Donald Trump can weaponize the FCC to strong arm broadcasters and dictate what Americans see and hear, our democracy is under direct attack. [2/3]
Nexstar pulled Jimmy Kimmel off its stations just days after FCC Chair Carr threatened broadcasters – all while Nexstar’s multi-billion-dollar merger awaits FCC approval. Now they say they will continue to keep him off the air. [1/3]
We are eight days away from the government shutting down and millions of Americans seeing their health insurance prices skyrocket.
Donald Trump is driving the country towards a shutdown.
President Trump and RFK Jr. are peddling full-on conspiracy theories and unproven pseudoscience.
Listen to your doctors, not the nonsensical ramblings of a corrupt administration.

We must pass my Broadcast Freedom and Independence Act to ensure that President Trump, or any President, cannot use the FCC to steamroll over the constitution and silence dissent. [4/4]
After immense public outcry, Disney eventually reversed course—proof that the voices of Americans under the protection of the First Amendment are stronger than this administration’s disregard for the Constitution. But, this abuse of power can’t happen again. [3/4]
But the Trump Administration doesn’t see it that way. They’ve twisted the Constitution into a one-way street that only protects them. That’s why President Trump, after years of threats, weaponized the FCC to pressure Disney into pulling Jimmy Kimmel off the air. [2/4]
The First Amendment is crystal clear. In America, EVERYONE has the freedom to express their ideas, beliefs, and opinions. Our country was built on that principle. [1/4]

Rolling back these standards will result in dirtier air, higher costs, and lost jobs. Climate denial cannot dictate policy. Our future is not for sale. [2/2]
The Trump Administration is trying to erase vehicle pollution standards and overturn proven climate science – all to pad the pockets of Trump's polluter friends. That’s why I led over 100 of my colleagues to demand the EPA reverse course. [1/2]
There is no debate. These vaccines are safe and effective. Silencing medical experts and pushing fringe theories is reckless and deadly. Talk to your doctor and protect your loved ones. [2/2]
RFK’s handpicked panel of vaccine skeptics is putting lives in danger. They are restricting childhood vaccines and making it harder for adults under 65 to protect themselves from COVID. [1/2]

NEW: E&C Dems call on FCC's Inspector General to investigate Chairman Brendan Carr after blatantly unconstitutional effort to take Jimmy Kimmel off air.

My Democratic colleagues and I are standing up to stop Republicans’ cuts to our health care system, lower costs, and bring down premiums.
We will not rubber-stamp another reckless Republican effort that deepens a crisis they have created. I voted NO on their continuing resolution.
If a shutdown happens, it’s because Republicans chose to serve themselves—not you.
I stand with a united Democratic Party to make it clear: we're here to serve the people, keep the gov't open, & reject another reckless funding package that only advances Donald Trump’s distorted vision of America.
