Pride isn’t just about rainbows and parades: it’s a protest for justice, dignity, and equal rights for the LGBTQI+ community. Pride is a demand we cannot stop making until every person regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or sex characteristics—is truly equal.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social22h ago(source)

I was honored to march in the Sacramento Pride Parade and stand side-by-side with the LGBTQI+ community. Fighting for an equal and just future for all is not just central to my work, it’s why I got into public service. 🧵

As we celebrate Juneteenth this week, let us honor those who came before us by continuing their work. Let us keep opening doors of opportunity. Let us keep building stronger communities.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social1d ago(source)

Thank you to the Dreams Unlimited Foundation and everyone who made this celebration possible. Juneteenth is first and foremost a day of joy. It’s a celebration of freedom, community, and the generations of Black Americans whose courage and perseverance helped move our nation forward.🧵

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social2d ago(source)

I’ve already joined my colleagues in calling on AG Rob Bonta to closely scrutinize this merger, and I remain deeply opposed. We need to keep up this fight.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social2d ago(source)

Media consolidation destroys diversity of thought, limits creative freedom, and threatens the accuracy of the information Americans rely on to stay informed.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social2d ago(source)

The merger of Paramount and Warner Bros. marks a dangerous turn in the American media landscape. These media giants have already shown a willingness to bend to an administration seeking complete narrative control, and this merger will only make that worse. 🧵

Justice Department approves Paramount’s acquisition of Warner Bros.

The Justice Department’s Antitrust Division signed off on Paramount’s $111 billion acquisition of Warner Bros., allowing the blockbuster media merger to move forward.

Too many lives have been forever changed because someone gained access to a firearm they should never have been able to obtain. The time to act has long passed, but I will never give up or stop fighting for stronger laws that keep guns out of the hands of those who intend to do unimaginable harm.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social3d ago(source)

That is why I will continue to oppose any extension of FISA without serious warrant requirements. Congress must protect our national security and our civil liberties.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social3d ago(source)

Keeping America secure is serious work. It requires expertise, judgment, and a firm commitment to the Constitution. It is not a political prop to be leveraged. FISA can be a critical tool against foreign adversaries, but when abused, it violates both privacy and constitutional rights. 🧵

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social4d ago(source)

Today, I met with the California Association of Home Builders to hear directly about the challenges of building in Sacramento. I’ll keep working to make it easier to permit and deliver more homes, bring down costs, and advance solutions that help more families achieve the dream of homeownership.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social5d ago(source)

Trump says he “loves inflation.” Sacramentans do not. My constituents are paying more for rent, utilities, and groceries because of Trump's tariffs and war with Iran. But this is exactly what Trump’s economy is meant to deliver, higher costs for hard-working families already stretched too thin.

Reporter: Are you concerned, Mr. President, about the latest inflation number which came out this morning? Trump: No, I love it. I love the inflation.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social5d ago(source)

I’ll always fight to expand economic opportunity and ensure that all workers, regardless of gender, are treated with dignity and fairly compensated. Honoring the past. Fighting for the future. #equalpayact

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social5d ago(source)

Today marks 63 years since the Equal Pay Act was signed into law by President Kennedy, marking a historic milestone in the fight for workplace equality. As we celebrate progress, we must recognize that the work is not done.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social6d ago(source)

That is why I have always fought to strengthen warrant requirements under FISA and build real safeguards against bad actors, whether inside government or at powerful surveillance companies like Palantir.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social6d ago(source)

Someone accused of abusing government data for political retaliation should not be trusted with our nation's most sensitive intelligence.

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social6d ago(source)

Bill Pulte is not only unqualified to serve as Director of National Intelligence, but his actions in his current role also raise serious questions that demand investigation. Reports that he used federal home loan data to target people Donald Trump dislikes are deeply alarming. 🧵

Rep. Doris Matsui@dorismatsui.bsky.social6d ago(source)

Trump's fixation on conspiracy theories, illegal tariffs, and an unauthorized war has sent the cost of living soaring. The financial hardship Americans are experiencing is the result of the whims of a man incapable of accepting reality and Republicans unwilling to stand up to him.

Trump walks out of interview after being pressed on election fraud claims

President Trump walked out of an interview on Sunday's "Meet the Press" after being pressed on his repeated claims that the 2020 election and last week's California primaries were "rigged."

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

Any federal AI bill must be targeted and strong enough to meet the moment—not so sweeping that it blocks responsible state action before Congress has put real safeguards in place.

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

We should not take away states’ ability to protect consumers, workers, children, and communities, especially without clear, meaningful federal protections.
