You know things are bad when House Republicans — who voted to cut Medicaid by $800B — are worried about Medicaid cuts in the Senate GOP's bill. But make no mistake: both the House and Senate bills kick millions off their health care. We're fighting them with everything we've got.

New: 16 House Republicans write a letter rebelling against the Senate bill’s Medicaid spending cuts, which are more aggressive than the House bill. Concerns include provider taxes, state payments, harm to hospitals and “cuts to emergency Medicaid funding.” Led by Rep. David Valadao:

Three years ago, SCOTUS overturned Roe v Wade. The consequences of this decision have been deadly. We should NEVER accept a reality where women are denied care, criminalized, and unable to make their own health care decisions. We can’t stop fighting for a future with reproductive freedom for all.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govJun 24(source)

SCOTUS is removing critical guardrails as Trump's violent and cruel mass deportation agenda continues to ramp up. Hard to overstate just how wrong this decision is.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govJun 24(source)

The Supreme Court has cleared the way for immigrants to be sent to countries they've never been to, where they could face torture or death, without meaningful notice and due process protections. Like Justice Sotomayor said, the conservative majority is "rewarding lawlessness."

BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows Trump to restart deportation of migrants to countries other than their homelands, for now.

"Low-income children and families would be among the groups hit hardest by Republicans' One Big Beautiful Bill Act. While the bill would be a boon to wealthy Americans, it would scale back resources for the nation's poorest households." Truly shameful stuff.

What children in poverty could lose from the 'Big Beautiful Bill'

Republicans want to change or reduce key social safety net programs that provide health care, food benefits and financial assistance for millions of children.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govJun 21(source)

The law is clear. Members of Congress have the authority to conduct oversight at any facility, unannounced. This is illegal and it won’t deter us.

DHS keeps denying access to members of Congress attempting oversight. Experts say it's illegal

On June 19, 1865, enslaved people in Galveston, TX learned they were free — over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. We celebrate Juneteenth to honor the end of slavery and recommit ourselves to the ongoing fight for equality and justice!

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govJun 18(source)

These ICE raids are not about safety or law and order, they’re about furthering a cruel and inhumane agenda. ICE is causing chaos in our communities, separating families, and stoking fear. We will keep speaking out.

Trump orders Ice to expand deportation of migrants

The president called on federal agencies to enforce the "largest mass deportation programme in history".

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govJun 18(source)

Republicans are now planning even larger cuts to health care coverage, all to increase tax cuts for billionaires. It is absolutely unacceptable.

Senate Bill Would Make Deep Cuts to Medicaid, Setting Up Fight With House

There’s NO room for kings in a democracy. Thank you to everyone who came out to the No Kings rally yesterday. Let's keep raising our voices and showing up for our communities. #NoKings

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads and father figures in CA-52 and across the country!

Horrified by the shootings of Minnesota state lawmakers and their spouses last night. Political violence has no place in America. My prayers are with the Hortman and Hoffman families, Minnesota, and our entire country today.

In Congressional Leadership's office demanding accountability for the assault on Senator Alex Padilla. The Senator was forced to the ground and handcuffed for trying to ask DHS Secretary Kristi Noem a question at a public press event. We need answers and Secretary Noem's resignation NOW.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govJun 12(source)

UNACCEPTABLE. @padilla.senate.gov - a sitting U.S. Senator - was just physically assaulted and handcuffed for asking DHS questions about issues that impact his constituents at a PUBLIC PRESS CONFERENCE. This is the stuff of authoritarian regimes.

This is a dangerous escalation. Trump is deliberately stoking chaos and fear. This isn’t about safety, it’s about spectacle, and it puts everyone at risk. The Administration needs to reverse course NOW.

The Governor and the Mayor have NOT requested support from the National Guard. This is purposefully inflammatory from the President. It’s designed to create chaos and escalate. This should be reversed.

Harvey Milk was a veteran, a dedicated public servant, and a pioneer for LGBTQ+ rights whose courage gave hope to millions. Trying to erase his name during Pride Month is an insult to his legacy. Hegseth should reverse this absolutely shameful decision immediately.

I went to the Senate Floor to bring up my resolution urging the Pentagon not to rename ships in the John Lewis class, named after American civil rights legends like the USNS Harvey Milk. Republicans blocked it. On the first week of Pride Month no less.

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

As if taking health care away from millions of working families wasn't enough, Republicans are now looking to target health care for seniors. Here's an idea: target the huge tax breaks for billionaires instead.

Now, a federal judge has found that the Trump Administration is violating court orders intended to repair the damage caused —putting those same families at risk once again. The cruelty hasn’t stopped. We won’t stop fighting to keep families together.
