The EPA is proposing to roll back decades of progress on attacking water pollution — abandoning their responsibility to protect water quality and limiting the effectiveness of the Clean Water Act.  We cannot revert back to a time when pollution caused our rivers to catch fire.

My first job representing Californians was as a member of the California State Senate. Great to get back to Sacramento and meet with State Senators and Assemblymembers, and talk about how we can work hand in hand to bring down the cost of housing, healthcare, food and medicine.⁩

The arrest of journalists for covering a protest is a grave attack on the first amendment and freedom of the press. And proof the Trump Administration is not deescalating. There will be accountability for these abuses of power.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 29(source)
ICE's violence and terror cannot become the new normal for America. We must act now, and bring about real reforms of ICE and CBP to stop their abuse of power and excessive use of force in our streets.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 29(source)
Don't forget: the largest funding spree for ICE in American history was paid for with the largest cut to health care in American history. This terror in our streets was no accident. It was in the Republican budget.

We had a lot of fun showing @schiff.senate.gov around @montereybayaquarium.org last week. Our sea otter exhibit and our work to rescue, rehabilitate, and return stranded animals to the wild captured his heart. We're grateful for all the Senator is doing so people and the ocean can thrive together.

Donald Trump has sowed fear and chaos in our cities, fueled by federal agents who have beaten, detained, and killed in the service of a mass deportation agenda that is tearing families and communities apart. Enough is enough. Not one more dime for ICE.

Today, we remember the six million Jews who were murdered in the Holocaust. Their murder is a testament to where unchecked hatred against a people can lead. We honor their memory by recognizing the dangerous growth of this ancient hatred and recommitting to the fight against antisemitism worldwide.

I hope his return will bring comfort to his family, and mark the beginning of a more peaceful Middle East, with the opening of the Rafah Corridor and Hamas laying down its arms.

As California’s first Senator on the Agriculture Committee in more than 30 years, it was my honor to address CA farmers at the 46th annual EcoFarm Conference in Monterey County! CA farmers and farm workers are facing unprecedented challenges, and I’m proud to be their champion in Washington.
