Dozens of American citizens, including several rabbis and congressional candidate Brad Lander, were detained by Israeli forces for helping Palestinian farmers during the annual olive harvest. This year's harvest has been marred by widespread violence against farmers and journalists.

Russia has waged an illegal war against Ukraine under Putin, wounding and killing civilians every day. He's a ruthless autocrat and war criminal — not a humanitarian.

From building California's highways to its iconic Golden Gate Bridge, Operating Engineers are a vital part of the American workforce. Grateful to join Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi to say thank you to the union workers building crucial infrastructure all across the West.

While your costs continue to rise, the President and everyone around him are getting rich — selling pardons, selling contracts, pilfering your taxpayer dollars. It is a veritable den of thieves. The GOP could not care less. But an accounting is coming.

National security decisions should be made in our national security interests, and not based on the personal whim of an unstable executive.

Either the President was lying or Musk was lying, but the decision to slow down satellite speed and access has life or death consequences for Ukraine. This deserves a full investigation by the Senate. Elon Musk should be compelled to testify before Congress and under oath.

EVERYTHING seems more expensive nowadays, and it's only gotten worse under Trump 2.0.

I joined San Diego Superintendent Bagula, @repscottpeters.bsky.social, @levin.house.gov, @vargas.house.gov and @sarajacobs.house.gov in sending a clear message: we must protect our schools and end these cruel and dangerous tactics.

The surge in ICE enforcement actions near schools in San Diego and around the state is terrorizing students, families, and entire communities.

As if waiving sanctions on Russia wasn’t enough, Trump now seems prepared to decide Ukraine's future without Ukraine in the room. Congress stood strongly, in a bipartisan vote, with Ukraine. And we will not stop working to see this murderous regime sent packing out of Ukraine for good.

The Trump administration is running a massive pay-to-play scheme with the President’s golden ballroom. Now you can see who is paying the freight and the pardons, contracts, mergers and more they want in return. The corruption is costing you billions.

This attempt to intimidate elected officials and our staff will not succeed. We instead condemn these threats as antithetical to the values of our nation, recommit to our work and thank the law enforcement and postal officials who are helping keep our teams safe.

Giving Russia a free pass is in our “national interest”? Trump signed this law less than 30 days ago, and has now exempted every single new sanction meant to stop Putin’s war machine. Every. Single. One. 🧵

A teenager used a gun to murder innocent children. An educator died in a job that should not be life threatening. And yet the GOP majority will again resist any meaningful effort to stop the next school shooting. This is the reality of the current Congress. And it’s heartbreaking.

The amount of insider trading and corruption in this administration is breathtaking. And when they are not engaged in it themselves, they turn a blind eye to others who are. All of this raises the price that ordinary families have to pay for food, gas and medicine. It is the cost of corruption.

I will continue to do all I can to mitigate the impacts on Californians and our businesses until we can put an end to these tariffs.

No one on either side of the border thinks this tariff fight is a good idea. It’s hurt us all. That it has alienated one of our closest friends and allies adds additional salt to the wound.

Throughout this trip, I heard over and over again how our interconnected commerce, markets and supply chains don't just impact our respective economies but also the livelihoods of Americans and Canadians alike.

Their stories mirror the many stories I've heard from California businesses about lost opportunities and how interconnected our commerce is with Canada.

I also met with the American Chamber of Commerce in Canada and representatives of American companies impacted by strained economic relations between our two countries.

Without American wine on Canadian shelves, Canadians are also missing out on tens of millions of dollars in tax revenue they would obtain from selling our wine.

Between the Canadian tariffs and the war in Iran (components of fertilizer also go through the Strait of Hormuz), the input costs for farmers have gone way up.

The tariff wars are raising costs in the United States on everything from steel and lumber to wine bottles to the potash farmers need for their fertilizer.

I then traveled to Ottawa, the nation's capital, to sit down with Canadian Minister for Agriculture, Heath MacDonald, and members of Parliament to discuss these issues and what can be done to mitigate the harms to both our economies until we can end them.

There is a political tradition in Canada, as there is in the United States, of politicians serving pancakes to their constituents. It was a pleasure to join Alberta’s Premier, Danielle Smith, for some good food and frank conversation about the needs of farmers in California and Alberta.

My first stop was Alberta, the only province not boycotting Californian wines. I spoke to provincial leaders about the importance of the Canadian market to California farmers and the importance of continuing close collaboration on dairy, beef and energy trade.

I went to understand more about how we can repair what is already broken, and the pathways to rebuilding an invaluable friendship with our neighbors. Here’s what I saw:

More to the point, the tariffs and a resulting Canadian boycott of certain American goods — like California wine — are hurting people on both sides of the border. And even if those trade disputes ended tomorrow, the damage will not disappear overnight.

When Los Angeles was burning, I met countless firefighters who came south to help us battle the blazes and save our homes and lives. Sadly, all too many Canadians feel betrayed by the President’s attacks on Canada, his demeaning comments about the country, and the 51st state nonsense.

I just returned from my first CODEL to Canada, where I advocated for my California constituents suffering from the president’s tariff wars with our Northern neighbor. Canadians have been among our closest allies, fighting side-by-side in both world wars and innumerable other conflicts.

Another dangerous attempt to destabilize our safe and secure elections. California will defend against this meddling and unwarranted intrusion on our constitutional rights. Don’t poke the bear. www.reuters.com/world/us-jus...

Federal law enforcement weaponized to target political enemies. Taxpayer dollars spent on political ads and monuments to vanity. Pardons for those who can pay, and payouts for those who play along. With each new act of corruption, our democracy moves closer to the brink.

We went from sanctioning Russian oil to buying it in three weeks. Instead of ending his disastrous war in Iran, Trump is now funding Russia's war in Ukraine. We used to hold dictators and autocrats accountable. Now our president negotiated a deal to fund Putin's unjust war.
