Each year, lawmakers and defense lobbyists play the same game, pouring hundreds of billions into the Pentagon without scrutinizing every dollar—and it's taxpayers who lose. Today, I invited witnesses to play JeoparDoD, to win oversight for the American people.

We should be able to track a ballot just like we can track a package. California already does this, but my Vote By Mail Tracking Act—which just passed the House—would add a barcode to each ballot nationwide, so every American can have confidence their vote is counted.

If you don’t load the dishwasher, don’t legislate about one.

You’ve heard of girl math, but what about Republican math? This week, Republicans tried to blame older Americans for our growing national debt—but in 2017, they passed tax cuts for the wealthy that added $1.8 TRILLION to the debt. Republican math doesn't add up.

Seven years ago, Donald Trump slashed the corporate tax rate, claiming the average household would see their income go up by $4,000. That never happened. Instead, the Trump Tax Scam helped billionaires and corporations line their pockets at the expense of the American people.

Happy #NewYear! I drafted a bill to recover tax dollars from Big Pharma companies that hike prices faster than the inflation rate. It was signed into law—and as of today, January 1, it's in effect! Learn more about this and other top legislative accomplishments from 2022 ⤵️

I did it. I just found something Speaker McCarthy was correct about. According to him, the impeachment inquiry of President Biden is "completely devoid of any merit or legitimacy." That's how he described an impeachment inquiry without a House vote—like the one we have today.

A free-for-all hellscape. That's what Elon Musk said Twitter would become if anyone could say anything with no consequences. And that's what today's Oversight hearing, supposedly about Twitter "suppression," devolved into, with screaming and yelling from the majority.

The debt ceiling doesn’t reduce spending or increase revenue. In fact, Congress has raised or changed the debt ceiling *78 times* since 1960—with no meaningful change to our budget decisions. It serves no purpose other than driving brinkmanship. Congress should abolish it.

When the military buys faulty planes they can't repair, that's a waste of our taxpayer dollars. The aircraft they need to repair the F-35 only flies about half of the time. I asked three Pentagon officials how they can justify spending billions more on these aircraft.

The last time Republicans had control of Congress and the White House, they raised taxes on millions of Californians by capping the state and local tax deduction—which hurts first-time homebuyers. We should be building up the middle class, not placing limits on its growth.

We have 870 federal judges in this country, and a basic code of conduct applies to all but nine: our Supreme Court justices. We can't allow justices to be for sale to the highest billionaire bidders. Congress must reform the Court to prevent further corruption.

Republicans are doing everything they can to distract the American people while they drive our economy off a cliff—and Kevin McCarthy is at the wheel. He's only passed 1 of 12 budget bills. As a professor, I'll tell you what that means: Speaker McCarthy is getting an F.

House Republicans want to paint fentanyl as a Biden problem—one went so far as to interrupt my questioning. But, the fact is that overdose deaths have spiked in the past decade, including under President Trump's immigration crackdown. Partisan games distract from real solutions.
