Donald Trump thought he had a massive mandate. He's wrong. In the first month since taking office, his poll numbers are crumbling, and his supporters are having buyer's remorse. Don't believe us? Check this out. www.welcomestack.org/p/crossing-t...

Proud to join @sylviagarcia.house.gov in reintroducing the bipartisan American Dream and Promise Act to protect Dreamers and provide a pathway to citizenship. Passing this bill is long overdue. Dreamers contribute to our communities, economy and future— let's give them the certainty they deserve.

Instead of working with Democrats, House Republicans are trying to go it alone and pass major cuts to programs like Medicaid. These cuts will hurt families in every corner of our nation. I talked to CNN ahead of voting NO on the Republican budget plan.

I stand with House Democrats against the Republican budget that would make devastating cuts to Medicaid, reduce food assistance and raise health care costs for many hardworking #SacramentoCounty families. I will be voting NO.

Three years ago today, Vladimir Putin launched an illegal and unprovoked full-scale invasion of Ukraine – a brutal attack on democracy, sovereignty and freedom. The impact of the war extends far beyond Ukraine's borders, including right here in #SacramentoCounty.

@raskin.house.gov: "The whole anti-corruption crusade is an absolute fraud. They started by decimating the ranks of the inspectors general. These are the people whose job is actually, day in and day out, 365 days a year, to ferret out waste, fraud and abuse in the departments and the agencies."

The People's Republic of China's continued attempts to silence voices within our borders is a direct affront to our democratic values and the rule of law. I introduced a bipartisan resolution with Rep. Andy Barr to stand firm against the harassment and intimidation of American citizens by the PRC.

I know that a lot of USAID workers, former workers and alumni are watching today's hearing. These are patriotic Americans who administer life-saving services to vulnerable populations around the world. I took a moment to thank them for their service. They deserve better.

USAID is a hugely important tool for advancing American influence and goodwill around the world. Shutting the agency down means gutting vital programs that tackle malaria, tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS— small investments that save lives and uphold American values.

Trump isn't just putting USAID employees out of a job. There are countless NGO workers who depend on funding from USAID contracts. By dismantling USAID, Trump is creating mass layoffs for thousands of Americans and hurting our economy. Read more from @politico.com⬇️ www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

🚨 Democratic doctors in Congress here—RFK Jr. is a public health threat. 🚨 As doctors, we are sounding the alarm: We need an HHS Secretary who follows science—not conspiracy theories. The Senate must reject RFK Jr. and confirm someone who will protect our health, not threaten it.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk's unlawful assault on USAID threatens American security, global stability and our ability to compete with adversaries including China, Russia and Iran. We must reassert our congressional authority to ensure USAID’s vital and life-saving work continues.

The Trump administration's sweeping freeze on federal grants and loans should not have been issued in the first place. I talked to ABC 10 yesterday detailing the uncertainty and concern this far-reaching order sparked amongst #SacramentoCounty residents.

Following the decision handed down by a federal judge temporarily blocking this freeze, I urge the Trump administration to reverse course and abandon this effort. I will do everything in my power to ensure that Sacramento County residents receive the vital funding and support they rely on.

After hundreds of people were hospitalized and at least 83 dead from a measles outbreak in Samoa, RFK Jr. doubled down on spreading dangerous disinformation & STILL promotes conspiracies about the lives lost. He shouldn’t be anywhere near our nation’s public health system.
