The Vice President’s deletion of this post only deepens the pain of the Armenian community which saw this White House retreat on Armenian Genocide recognition. Another capitulation to Turkey, in such a sloppy manner as to invite further scrutiny of this admin's retreat on human rights & the truth.

$600,000,000 slashed from public health funding in four blue states, the vast majority targeting California. These cuts will hurt vital efforts to prevent the spread of disease. It's dangerous, and it's deliberate. The Trump administration's targeting of blue states is illegal and must end.

It was great to welcome high school students from AJC to the Capitol. Across the nation and the world, we're seeing an alarming rise in antisemitism, and I'm proud of these young leaders who are focused on combatting hate.

Donald Trump hasn't kept his promises, and he knows the American people are ready to hold him accountable. So now he's promising to cheat in the next election, if given the chance. We can't give him that chance.

It was a delight to host some of California’s great local leaders here at the Capitol with @padilla.senate.gov. Mayors from up and down our great state gathered to discuss issues their communities are facing and how we can partner together to deliver for Californians.

The Bay Area Ridge Trail gives visitors the opportunity to enjoy more than 500 miles of some of California’s most incredible outdoor beauty. Proud to partner with @rephuffman.bsky.social in providing federal recognition to this ridgeline trail — helping preserve it for future generations.
Bay Area’s giant 550-mile trail could earn same status as Pacific Crest Trail
A 550-mile hiking and biking trail encircling the Bay Area might soon gain a prized federal recognition that would put it in the same class as the Pacific Crest Trail and Appalachian Trail.

I urge VP Vance to use his upcoming visit to demand the release of all hostages and an end to the systematic ethnic cleansing of Artsakh's Armenian population.

Azerbaijan’s illegal detention and sentencing of Artsakh Armenians are an affront to international law and human rights – and confirm that Azerbaijan has no interest in honoring its peace agreement. 🧵
Azerbaijan Sentences Former Karabakh Leaders to Life in Prison
Azerbaijan sentenced Armenian leaders of the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic to life in prison at the end of trials that followed its military seizure of the breakaway enclave.

For decades, California & Hollywood have shined bright as the global leader for movies & creative storytelling, thanks to an amazing workforce. Rep. Friedman and I are urging Netflix & Paramount to provide answers on how their bids for Warner Bros will impact jobs, production & consumers.

Sen. Adam Schiff and Rep. Laura Friedman pushed Netflix and Paramount to commit to grow domestic production as a they consider the Warner Bros sale.

Donald Trump is terrified of the accountability the midterms will bring. So now he floats ‘nationalizing’ elections and his advisors promise to put ICE at polling places. Straight out of a dictator's playbook.

Glenn Medical Center had to close because of a bureaucratic change targeting rural hospitals. For months, I worked with the late-Rep. LaMalfa and Sen. Hyde Smith to help reopen it. Now, I'm proud our bill was signed into law, giving Glenn a fighting chance to reopen its doors in the future.

Yesterday, the last nuclear arms treaty between the United States and Russia expired, opening the door to nuclear build-up, decreased trust among nuclear powers, and less stability. The admin needs to focus on new talks to preserve nuclear stability, before the world becomes even more dangerous.
The treaty limiting U.S. and Russian nuclear arms expired. What to know.
President Donald Trump said Thursday that he hoped to replace New START with a modernized treaty that could “last long into the future.”
