Proud to have worked with Adam Schiff to secure over $18 million in funding for CA transit ahead of the World Cup! This critical funding will help support the games and make lasting improvements to public transit in Los Angeles and the Bay Area, helping people get where they need to go faster, cheaper, and safer.

Pam Bondi is demanding access to Minnesota's voter rolls in exchange for removing ICE from communities. This was never about public safety. It's always been about clinging to power.

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country. We will hold this administration accountable.

The Vice President knows my name. But that’s not the point. He should be focused on removing the thousands of unnecessary troops from the streets of Los Angeles, not petty slights.

Last week, I was forced to the ground — first to my knees and then flat on my chest — and I was handcuffed. Simply for having the audacity to ask a question. We cannot let this Administration silence us or keep us from doing our jobs.

I will be voting NO on Todd Blanche’s confirmation to be the next Attorney General. The American people deserve better. They deserve an Attorney General who will put the Constitution and rule of law above political retribution and the President’s interests.

California is home to the most immigrants out of any state in the nation. We also have the strongest economy out of any state in the nation. Not despite our immigrant population –– but because of it.

BREAKING: Trump just put the California coast up for sale. He wants to develop new offshore oil drilling for the first time in 40 years. We won’t let him sacrifice our coastline to big oil executives.

Demanding voter rolls in exchange for removing ICE. Raiding election offices in Georgia. Trump is trying to rig the upcoming midterm election before our eyes. We can't let him get away with it.

For 40 years, my dad worked as a short-order cook and my mom cleaned houses. It’s because of their hard work and sacrifices that I stand here today, ready to preserve and fight for the American Dream.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: we cannot cede more power to Trump and Musk. I am a NO on the Republican spending bill––on cloture and final passage.

Our message to Angelenos: We are fighting for you. We're working every day both in California and DC to ensure that those devastated by last year’s Palisades and Altadena fires get the resources and help they need to recover.

This is not business as usual. I’m blocking Trump’s National Guard nominee until he pulls every last troop he needlessly deployed out of LA. Our service members didn’t sign up to be pawns in his political vendetta against California.

This is the first time since 1965 National Guard troops are federalized and deployed without the request and support of the Governor or local authorities. Trump's escalation tactic creates nothing more than fear and chaos in our communities. It’s unnecessary, counterproductive, and a misuse of our National Guard.

Acabamos de escuchar a Donald Trump hacer lo que mejor sabe hacer: Mentir. Miente sobre la economía, miente sobre su aplicación de las leyes de imigracion de manera violenta y fuera de control y pretenden engañarnos sobre sus planes para manipular las elecciones este noviembre.

No matter how many times Trump says it, we will never “Drill, Baby, Drill” our way to cheaper energy costs. It’s why California just passed a package of legislation to lower the cost of living for working families. Once again, California is showing a better path forward.

I'm not enraged by the stock market crashing because I'm sympathetic towards traders on Wall Street. I'm mad because this hurts the pensions and retirement savings of so many Americans. And Trump couldn't care less.

In America, we don’t punish political enemies –– we protect free speech. You can disagree with just about everything he stood for, but Charlie Kirk encouraged debate and insisted on exercising his right to free speech, even when it was controversial. We will not stay quiet while this Administration tries to silence critics for speaking their minds. We will fight to protect that right for every American.

ICE descended on MacArthur Park with dozens of armored vehicles and agents carrying military-grade weapons. They terrorized children and immigrant communities and filmed content for their social media pages. And detained no one. Taxpayers footed the bill for this meaningless spectacle.
