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.
House Republicans just pushed through an empty continuing resolution that ignores the reality facing millions of Americans. Unless we extend Affordable Care Act tax credits, premiums will skyrocket and millions will lose coverage. American families cannot afford higher costs, and yet Republicans refuse to even come to the table.

This is part of a broader Republican assault on health care. Their Big Ugly Bill cut more than a trillion dollars from the health care system—slashing Medicaid and leaving the most vulnerable without care. These are deliberate choices that put Americans at risk. If a shutdown happens, it will be because Republicans chose to serve themselves, not the people they were elected to represent.

My Democratic colleagues and I are standing up to stop these cuts, lower costs, and bring down premiums. We will not rubber-stamp another reckless Republican resolution that deepens this crisis. We are fighting for a responsible path forward that keeps health care within reach and puts everyday Americans first.
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.
House Republicans just pushed through an empty funding resolution that ignores the looming spike in health care premiums if we don’t extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits. They are so deep in Donald Trump’s pocket that they refuse to even negotiate to save Americans money. [1/2]
Doris stands with House Democrats to pushback against Republicans' C.R.
The First Amendment is clear. All Americans have the right to express themselves freely. My Broadcast Freedom and Independence Act will prevent the weaponization of the FCC and stop them from telling broadcasters what they can and cannot say.
We must have zero tolerance for political violence. We must also have zero tolerance for government censorship. That’s why I am demanding FCC Chairman Brendan Carr sits for an oversight hearing so we can find out why he thinks the constitution doesn’t apply to him.
BEAD is a $42B promise to connect every home and business. The Trump Administration keeps moving the goal posts, freezing funds, rewriting rules, and floating arbitrary price caps that will gut quality for the most vulnerable. [1/2]
Local leaders are on the front lines. Mayors in my district are ready to move heaven and earth to connect their communities. Our job isn't to tie their hands—it's to help them succeed. [3/3]
At Leataata Floyd Elementary in Sacramento, where over 95 percent of students come from low-income households, parents face impossible choices between food and broadband. They’re counting on us to deliver affordable broadband access—quickly and responsibly. [2/3]
The First Amendment isn’t possessed by one political party, it applies to ALL Americans. This is as basic as it gets. If Republicans are serious about protecting free speech, then they will pass my Broadcast Freedom and Independence Act now. [2/2]
Donald Trump has set his sights on dismantling free speech. Time after time, he’s threatened to silence any media that runs contrary to his narrative. Now, he has weaponized the FCC to bully ABC into removing Jimmy Kimmel from the airwaves. [1/2]
If they revoke recommendations for those shots – parents of newborns are going to be frantically trying to figure out where they can get their children vaccinated and whether their insurance will pay. This isn’t giving Americans a choice. It’s taking choice away. [2/2]
Tomorrow, RFK Jr. and his sham Advisory Committee will meet to consider vaccines protecting kids against measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, and COVID. And their actions have real consequences. [1/2]
It’s long past time we pass the RARE Act, and the rest of this package. This bill provides long-awaited hope to the millions of Americans and their families struggling with a rare disease. [2/2]
The worst possible words a parent can hear are that there’s no options for their child’s care. That's why I have worked tirelessly to prevent that nightmare from being a reality. [1/2]
Health care affordability is on the line. 27,000 of my constituents rely on premium tax credits to keep coverage within reach. Letting these credits expire means an average $121/month increase for individuals, and thousands more a year for family coverage. [1/2]
Yet, Trump’s DOE still refused to commit to resuming the program. Congress set these dollars aside for students’ health and energy savings, DOE must follow the law and spend appropriated funds. [2/3]
