I sent a letter with Reps. @vargas.house.gov and Grijalva to Navy Secretary Phelan to request more information about the new National Defense Area that have been established across the Arizona and California border, including the El Centro Sector.

This historic milestone is long-awaited and well deserved. C.I.N.C. serves over 100 Tribes nationwide with 76% of their enrollment being first-generation college students!
I commend C.I.N.C. as it continues to make higher education accessible throughout Indian country and our district, CA-25.
Congratulations to California Indians Nations College (C.I.N.C.) for reaching accreditation and becoming the first Tribal College in California to do so in over 20 years!
From infrastructure to public safety, these direct investments are building a stronger future for every corner of CA-25.
Check out the map to see where these projects are making an impact! 📍🗺️
🚨Big News🚨
I secured over $17 million for 14 new Community Projects in the FY26 funding package! This latest win brings our Community Projects total investment to our district to $66,132,000 since 2022.
I was glad to meet with Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians Tribe leadership to discuss protecting local water resources and preserving their historic lands.
I had a constructive meeting with the Riverside-San Bernardino County Indian Health. I look forward to continuing to work together to increase access to quality healthcare.
Yesterday, I met with Trustees Ron Oden and Mark Meyer with COD to discuss their tuition-free program for CV residents. Expanding access to higher education is critical for our region’s future, and I strongly support efforts that remove financial barriers and help more students succeed.
I’m committed to working with our tribal partners to ensure their voices are heard and their rights protected.
I met with Chairwoman Flores from the Colorado River Indian Tribes to discuss protecting historical tribal lands and safeguarding senior water rights holders in the Colorado River negotiations.
I’m committed to protecting Medicare and making health care more affordable for every family in our district. Today, I met with Health Center Partners to discuss the real challenges our community faces and explore solutions that ensure no one has to choose between their health and their bills.
I had the pleasure of meeting with the Imperial Valley Drug Free Communities Coalition. They are doing important work to combat and prevent drug abuse and improve access to mental health.
I went to the Tacos, Tequila & Chavelas Festival to judge the tasting competition. Tough job, but someone had to do it!
Congratulations to One Stop Taco Shop for winning first place!
Being in the community feeds my soul. It was great joining the Indio Black History Month Celebration and recognizing my friend, Councilmember Waymon Fermon who served as the City of Indio’s first Black Mayor and all the ceremony’s honorees who make a difference daily.
It took 3 visits and a court order to allow me entrance to Adelanto Detention Center to provide oversight and investigate conditions inside.
I introduced legislation to ensure that non-criminal immigrants and U.S. citizens receive their basic needs and are treated humanely.
Today, thanks to the U.S. District Court that deemed DHS 7 day notice request unlawful, I was granted access to Adelanto on my third visit.
I took to the House floor to denounce the out of control ICE violence and brutality against non-criminal immigrants and U.S. citizen and called for the impeachment and removal of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. I demand accountability, transparency, and justice, now.
ICE is out of control and needs to be reined in. Their violence and brutality against non-criminal immigrants and U.S. citizens must end. Dramatic changes at DHS are needed, starting with impeachment and removing Kristi Noem.
¡Condeno firmemente las acciones violentas de ICE y CBP contra inmigrantes no criminales y ciudadanos estadounidenses! La falta de liderazgo del Departamento de Seguridad Nacional bajo la secretaria Kristi Noem es inaceptable y debe irse.
I strongly condemn the violent actions of ICE and CBP against non-criminal immigrants and U.S. citizens! The failure of leadership at DHS under Secretary Kristi Noem is unacceptable and she must go. We need accountability, transparency, and humane enforcement: NOW.
