Until this year, wildland firefighters were prohibited from protecting themselves against hazardous smoke while battling a blaze. My new bipartisan bill with Sen. John Curtis will create the first-ever respiratory protection requirements for firefighters.

Donald Trump keeps crying ‘hoax’ when pressed on releasing the Epstein files. But the American people deserve to know what evidence a convicted child sex trafficker had that he said could “take down” Trump.

A big victory for the University of California. And a call to every university across the U.S. to refuse to sacrifice academic freedom to Donald Trump. Our democracy requires your uncensored voices. And the law is on your side.

The Trump family is chasing another real estate deal in Saudi Arabia. And the Saudis want a mutual defense agreement and access to U.S. nuclear technology. Looks like Trump and the royal family will both win, with our national security for sale. The only losers? The American people.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govNov 15(source)
This administration is working overtime to deny Donald Trump’s involvement with Jeffrey Epstein — but the American people aren’t buying it. It's time for a real investigation. It’s time to release the full Epstein Files, like Trump promised during his campaign.

If you engage in an insurrection to overturn an election on behalf of the president, you get a pardon. If you illegally possess firearms, that too will be excused. Trump’s actions are a dangerous invitation to lawlessness, if you use that lawlessness to keep him in power.

NEWS: President Trump has issued a *second* pardon for Jan. 6 defendant Dan Wilson. Wilson, a militia member, remained in prison on a firearms conviction unrelated to the Capitol attack. But Trump's new pardon explicitly covers the gun charges. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Republicans in Congress passed the largest cut to health care in American history. Californians already are feeling the impacts of this attack on access to care.

The closure of Glenn Medical Center in the Sacramento Valley is putting the lives and wellbeing of thousands at risk. I'm working hard to pass my bipartisan legislation to help reopen Glenn Medical and protect health care access in rural communities across California.

Is the Trump administration trying to drag America into another war? They are parking some of our most lethal warships off the coast of Venezuela and sending thousands of service members to the region. And we're supposed to believe this is about blowing up speedboats?
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govNov 14(source)
Donald Trump’s White House says he is now going to “refocus” on the cost of living. The issue he campaigned on and then ignored. In favor of a golden ballroom, and Great Gatsby parties. Americans deserve better.

Recently, I wrote an op-ed detailing how dangerous it would be to allow oil drilling along the coast of California and why it's crucial that we push back. x.com/senadamschif...

President Trump’s Big Oil agenda prioritizes the profits of giant corporations at the expense of our coastlines. California has suffered greatly from oil spills in the past. We cannot let history repeat itself.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govNov 12(source)
Donald Trump said prices were going down under his watch. That’s a lie. Even Fox has some updated stats for him. Trump needs to spend less time on the golf course and on plans for the ballroom, and more time trying to live up to his promises.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govNov 10(source)
Last night's so-called deal was a tragically disappointing result for the millions of Americans who are facing higher health care costs next year, and for our efforts to confront this bully of a President. I voted no. Let's talk about where we go from here. youtu.be/Zc-sUG6myqE?...
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govNov 10(source)
First, Trump pardoned the violent insurrectionists who beat cops. Now, he pardons the key instigators of January 6th. We need to see this for what it is: An attempt to erase history, so it can be repeated.
