Republicans are attempting to ram through a provision to sell millions in acres in CA, including land around Yosemite, Mt. Shasta, Lake Tahoe & Big Sur, as part of their big ugly bill. Our federal public treasures shouldn't be sold off to the highest bidder. I will fight this, tooth & nail.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 18(source)

Natural disasters don't spare voters from either party. And our response must be equally nonpartisan. Someone needs to tell the president he is supposed to represent all Americans. And to stop making life more difficult for thousands of Californians trying to recover.

Reporter: “Will your recent dust-ups with Gov. Newsom impact additional wildfire relief?” Trump: “Yeah, maybe…Hatred is never a good thing in politics. When you don’t like somebody, you don’t respect somebody, it’s harder for that person to get money when you’re on top.”

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 18(source)

We must prevent Iran from ever having a nuclear weapon, and support Israel’s ability to defend itself. But the President cannot declare war on Iran or launch strikes against it without Congressional approval. Congress must not cede that authority to this or any other president.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 17(source)

This isn't just about California. It’s about how we treat our fellow human beings. It’s about how we treat families. It’s about who we are. I stand with @padilla.senate.gov

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 17(source)

The billionaire tax cheat in the Oval Office just eliminated the office that goes after other billionaire tax cheats. Same old story. The get richer. And the little guy gets screwed.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 16(source)

The President has surrounded himself with stooges and sycophants who enable his worst, most lawless impulses. That makes all of us less safe.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 16(source)

Saudi Arabia has executed another journalist, Turki Al-Jasser, after 7 years of detention for reporting on corruption. The failure to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi only encourages further acts of deadly violence against journalists in the Persian Gulf & elsewhere.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 16(source)

Donald Trump just laid bare his real immigration plan: 1) Target blue cities 2) Inflame tensions, divide families and stir up more chaos 3) Placate the MAGA base at the expense of our economy. Trump’s extreme policies are tearing the country apart and bad for America.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 16(source)

One of my favorite parts of my job – getting to welcome Californians to the Capitol and hear directly from them. CA residents, if you're going to be in DC – let my office know!

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 15(source)

The DACA program was created 13 years ago today. It's meant hope and opportunity for many people who came here as children. Since then, that program has been under attack. Congress must work together to find a path to citizenship for these young students. Now more than ever.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 14(source)

America is strong not because of our President, but because of our people. Our flag flies for no dictator. Our nation bows to no king. Today, of all days, we must remember that.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 14(source)

I’m praying for Rep. Melissa Hortman’s family, and for Sen. John Hoffman and his wife’s recovery this morning. The rising tide of political violence in this country tears at all the values we hold dear. This is not who we are. This has to end.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 13(source)

Donald Trump doesn't care about law enforcement. He cares about power. It's why he's deploying military personnel to Los Angeles. And it's why he pardoned the violent criminals who attacked Capitol Police on January 6th.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 13(source)

Donald Trump wants you to forget that his first act in office was to pardon hundreds of violent thugs who beat cops.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 13(source)

The Trump administration has been ordered to return control of the National Guard back to California. The correct decision. And a win for the rule of law.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 12(source)

Today I watched as my colleague, @padilla.senate.gov, was shoved and handcuffed by Trump officials. I immediately went to the Senate floor to respond. This is what I said: youtu.be/h40tBBFkiq4?...

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 12(source)

@padilla.senate.gov represents the best of the Senate. The disgraceful and disrespectful conduct of DHS agents, pushing and shoving him out of a briefing like that, demands our condemnation. He will not be silenced or intimidated. His questions will be answered. I’m with Alex.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 12(source)

I will continue doing everything I can to fight back against the Trump administration’s ongoing attacks on California.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 12(source)

This action will have devastating consequences not just on California, but on other states that have adopted the Golden State’s higher standards. This will ultimately result in dirtier air, and more asthma and lung cancer, and that will be their legacy.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJun 12(source)

President Donald Trump, EPA Administrator Zeldin and Republicans in Congress are undermining our state’s ability to protect the health of millions of Americans. From the party that once claimed the mantle of champion of state’s rights, the GOP is now only the party of polluter rights.
