While Americans are struggling with higher prices, the President is focused on enriching himself and his family. You look at this and have to ask yourself – is there any level of corruption so egregious that Republicans would call it out? Evidently not.

It has been a bedrock principle since our nation's founding that America's military must not be used to police our own communities. This opinion affirms that Donald Trump's use of the Marines and California National Guard in L.A. was unlawful and unjustified.

Weekends. The 40-hour work week. Sick days. That didn't just happen. Organized labor did that. And today, we celebrate how far we've come. And how far we've yet to go to build an economy – and a country – that works for working people.

The Trump Administration must accept the fact that Putin is not interested in peace, only conquest. And the best way to bring this conflict to a successful end is to provide Ukraine with the means to defend itself. And to go on offense.

Donald Trump’s tariffs are illegal and unconstitutional — an opinion now held and upheld by multiple federal courts. These tariff wars must end, for the sake of every American’s pocketbook. www.latimes.com/business/sto...
Appeals court finds Trump's tariffs illegally used emergency power, but leaves them in place for now
But the 7-4 court did not strike down the tariffs immediately, allowing his administration time to appeal to the Supreme Court.

If our GOP colleagues go along with it, they will cede even more power to the executive. And make it clear they are aiming to shutdown the government altogether.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govAug 29(source)
When Republicans cut Medicaid, they cut funding to hospitals. When they cut hospital funding, they cut critical hospital staff. When they cut hospital staff, it puts lives at risk. Just another consequence of the GOP's Big Ugly Bill.

For so many parents, the images out of Minnesota are like watching their worst nightmare. And our kids have to live that nightmare. Every day. We must act. And the cowards who refuse should be voted out.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govAug 26(source)
The Republican budget means huge cuts to Medicaid, rural hospital closures, and higher out-of-pocket costs for families across the nation. Together, these failures will force millions of Americans to go without health insurance. All to pay for big billionaire tax breaks.

Happy birthday to the National Park Service! I will never stop fighting for the beautiful lands you protect. Thank you and your amazing staff for being such good stewards of the land and sea.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govAug 25(source)
The President is deeply unpopular. His agenda is stunningly unpopular. The Big Ugly Bill — with its vast cuts to healthcare to fund tax cuts for the rich — is historically unpopular. So Trump leveraged Republicans in Texas to try to gerrymander a majority in the midterms.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govAug 25(source)
When Donald Trump’s FBI raids John Bolton’s home, it’s a signal. To any of his opponents. To all of his detractors. If you stand up to this administration, you could be next. To save our democracy, we must reject these tactics of an aspiring dictator.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govAug 24(source)
One week after Trump rolled out the red carpet for Putin on American soil, Ukraine is no closer to peace. No ceasefire. No additional sanctions against Russia. No new help to allow Ukraine to bring the fight to the Russian invaders.

California’s airports keep our communities connected, our businesses growing, and our economy moving. @padilla.senate.gov and I just announced $158 million in federal grants that are headed to the Golden State for 72 airports to modernize infrastructure, support good jobs, & keep travelers moving.
