He needs to stop using force without congressional approval and stop making promises he can’t keep.

After using military force in Venezuela without a plan for replacing the regime, the country is still run by Maduro’s henchmen.
Now the president has promised the Iranian people that he will come to their aid, but without a plan for doing so that doesn’t mire us down in another endless war. 🧵
The Trump administration is threatening the jobs and livelihoods of Sikh drivers under the false claim it will make our roads safer. It won’t. They are far less likely to be in an accident than other drivers. In Bakersfield, I sat down with a group of Sikh truckers to hear their concerns.
Not only was DOGE illegally accessing your Social Security information, but it was also illegally offering to share it with third-party political groups working to overturn elections.
This is a deep betrayal of the public trust and must be fully investigated. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/u...
I introduced a Constitutional amendment to overturn this decision and put political power where it belongs: with the American people.
16 years ago today, the Supreme Court erased the limit on how much the wealthy and big corporations could pump into elections.
Since Citizens United, we've seen billions of dollars of dark money drowning out the voice of American voters.
The Trump administration’s abuse of sensitive databases for immigration enforcement purposes has been a go-to intimidation tactic to serve their mass detention and deportation agenda.
But sharing data on our veterans is a disgraceful abuse even for an administration hellbent on spreading fear.
As his enemies lists grows, so does the list of people with the courage to fight back.
Trump was never going to stop at Mark Kelly, Jerome Powell, Letitia James, or me.
Targeting Minnesota officials is just Trump’s latest abuse of the DOJ, and his most recent attempt to silence and intimidate those who stand up to him. 🧵
And we are going to fight to put an end to the administration’s cruel mass deportation program which devastates families even as it is a body blow to our economy.
The American people deserve to know what’s happening inside these walls.
We are going to keep conducting oversight of what is happening when a friend, neighbor, or family member is detained by ICE.
But the trauma within ICE detention facilities is unseen, as individuals spend weeks, months, or longer without being reunited with family.
Threatened with deportation to countries they know nothing about. And ready to give up on their appeals, to avoid further detention.
And they described a lack of access to vital medical care, like insulin for diabetes.
We have all watched in horror as ICE has engaged in indiscriminate immigration raids, grabbing citizens and noncitizens alike, and often endangering the lives of our neighbors in the process.
Many of the people we met with had no criminal record and were showing up for immigration appointments when they were arrested by ICE.
They rarely get to see family members — who may live hundreds or thousands of miles away in the United States.
These are just some of the heartbreaking stories @padilla.senate.gov and I heard today at the California City Detention Center. 🧵
In just one year, Trump has abused his office at every turn. He has corruptly worked to enrich himself and his family, while doing nothing to help yours with the cost of living.
The fight to preserve our democracy isn’t over — it’s just getting started.
Spent a meaningful MLK Day with Angelenos at Big Sunday’s MLK Clothing Drive and Community Breakfast.
In 1967, MLK asked: “Where do we go from here, chaos or community?” We choose community.
Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His dream remains a call to action for all of us to continue the fight for justice, equality, and the right to vote.
The President’s betrayal of NATO is complete with this latest tariff threat.
It will only further alienate our allies, drive economic uncertainty, and raise costs.
Congress must act, and put a stop this self-destructive madness.

This week, people from all over California came to the Capitol to talk about food, nutrition, healthcare and a host of other issues.
@padilla.senate.gov and I are so grateful to hear from constituents of the Golden State on what we can do to help.
