Honored to join the National Association of Community Health Centers Annual Policy and Issues Forum. As an emergency physician and Congressman, I’ve seen how Trump’s funding cuts and illegal freezes negatively impact community health centers, disrupting care, payroll, and critical services.

Today marks three years since Russia invaded Ukraine, starting the biggest war in Europe since World War II. Read my statement in the #DesertSun, where I respond to President Trump’s claim that President Zelensky is a dictator.
Let’s not forget who we are and which side of history we choose.
I want to hear from you! Mark your calendars for my telephone townhall on 2/26 at 5:30pm PST. To listen live, visit my Facebook Page at @RepRaulRuizMD.
Tune in to learn how I’m standing up for our communities. I’ll be discussing Trump’s Executive Orders, the federal funding freeze, and more.
My privacy isn’t for sale, and neither is yours. I cosponsored the Taxpayer Data Protection Act to keep Elon Musk and others like him out of your personal data.
I never consented to handing over my Social Security Number, home address, and bank account information to billionaire bully Elon Musk’s DOGE. You didn’t consent to this either.
🔁 Missed my Instagram Live with @RepUnderwood yesterday? We broke down the threats to Medicaid and what’s at stake.
Catch the full replay here!

Trump referring to himself as king?!! F&$# that! Americans serve no king! This is America! #1776
⏰ UPDATE: Our Instagram Live will now start at 4:15pm PT / 6:15pm CT
🚨 I’m LIVE at 4pm PT!
Join me and @underwood.house.gov on Instagram Live to talk about threats to Medicaid, Medicare & the Affordable Care Act. As a doctor, I know how these cuts hurt our communities.
Tune in to learn what they could mean for you!
I had the honor of joining the American Medical Association to discuss protecting Medicare access for seniors and my bill, the Strengthening Medicare for Patients and Providers Act.
Let’s get it done!
If this were truly about cracking down on fraud, Extreme House Republicans would have supported the Inflation Reduction Act‘s funding to hire more IRS agents to go after millionaires who cheat the system, but they didn’t.

Elon Musk and DOGE are trying to access detailed financial information about every American, an invasion of privacy and a threat to your digital security. I cosponsored the Taxpayer Data Protection Act to safeguard your personal information.
Thousands of hard working families in our communities get their care at Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC).
Glad to have met with DAP Health, Health Center Partners SoCal, and leaders of local FQHCs to protect health care for underserved communities from potential cuts to Medi-Cal.
Congratulations to California Indian Nations College on their recent pre-accreditation status, which is a historic step in serving our Indigenous communities.
It was a pleasure to meet with #CINC students to discuss how CINC’s programs propel our local students to a successful career.
Happy Valentine’s Day to my forever Valentine! I’m so blessed to share this life with my wife, Monica, and our beautiful daughters, Sage and Sky.
Wishing everyone a wonderful Valentine’s Day!

🚨BREAKING: VA slashes 1000 jobs of disabled veterans, military spouses & medical researchers in massive cuts. $98M in claimed "savings" = longer wait times & reduced care for veterans. This isn't reform - it's a reckless abandonment of those who served.
This isn’t about fraud, waste, or efficiency. It’s about dismantling government to hand out billions in tax breaks to billionaires.
I refuse to stand by while our nation’s heroes are left behind.

I have always stood up for veterans. President Trump’s hiring freeze and illegal funding freeze will lead to staffing cuts and delays in veterans’ access to benefits and health care.
Extreme House Republicans are at it again with their latest bait-and-switch budget.
They claim it’s about cutting fraud, waste, and abuse, but watch my video to find out what their plan really does...

A picture is worth a thousand words: Elon Musk, the Un-Elected President of the United States.
We cannot allow unelected and unaccountable billionaires like Elon Musk to seize control of our government. So, I’ll keep fighting.
