In the past six months of Trump’s Big Ugly Bill, fewer women and families are getting critical medical care, and many more are facing skyrocketing health costs. I’m partnering with @warren.senate.gov and @wyden.senate.gov to help expose how health care cuts endanger access to lifesaving care.

A birth certificate AND your marriage license. If you changed your name after you got married, like the First Lady, the 'SAVE America Act' will demand you provide BOTH documents in order to prove your identity and vote in the next election if you don’t have a passport.

Trump appointees at the Dept. of Energy used their personal email accounts to evade transparency laws in their efforts to make it easier to pollute, and EPA was in on it. We are demanding answers and accountability for this blatant disregard for the law.

Donald Trump wants to spend $1 billion of your tax dollars to drive up your power bill, by killing new energy projects. Let that sink in.

Americans increasingly see a system rigged against them. And as Trump continues giving the well connected the inside track, everyone else gets screwed. Corruption is the name of the game.

The merger of two of Hollywood’s biggest studios will have widespread impacts on California and the entire American entertainment industry. For the sake of our jobs, small businesses, and our independent news media, we must thoroughly explore these impacts.

More than 2,000 Marines from Camp Pendleton are now headed to the Middle East as the Iran War shows no signs of slowing. Alarm bells should be ringing across America, with the prospect of boots on the ground. Every day raises the risks of a new forever war. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

The same Russian regime that we're giving hundreds of millions dollars a day in sanctions relief is again reportedly helping Iran find and kill even more American servicemembers. And while Vladimir Putin gets richer, you pay more at the pump. www.wsj.com/world/russia...

Senate Republicans refuse to hold open hearings on the Iran War and its mounting costs. Tonight, I joined my Democratic colleagues in forcing that transparency. We will continue to demand answers from the administration, and an end to the war.

The economy is not working for millions of Americans. Trump's Presidency has made the problem so much worse. Don't just take my word for it. Take it from Linda:

The work that the organizers and leaders of UFW continue to do today is absolutely essential, and especially now, when immigrants and farmworker communities are under assault.

The legacy of UFW promoting equitable and fair treatment for our farm workers is not the province of any one person, including Cesar Chavez.

I commend the courage of these women for coming forward and sharing their agonizing stories of exploitation, sexual assault, and lifelong trauma. This is a heartbreaking revelation, and my thoughts are with all survivors who will feel the terrible weight of this new reporting.

Senate Republicans and Trump want to make it harder for you to vote. We're pushing back. Tune in as I hold the Senate floor to BLOCK the SAVE Act and protect our most sacred constitutional right. The right to vote. Watch: youtube.com/live/DFaiTeG...

Rather than saving America from being dragged into a forever war, Senate Republicans would rather focus on their so-called SAVE America Act. Here's how dangerous this voter suppression bill would be for your right to vote:

The true financial cost of the Iran War is hard to quantify, but the billions we’ve already spent could’ve been used on hospitals and health care, or lowering other costs for Americans. Not to mention the increased price at the pump.

$11 billion on Trump's illegal war in Iran. And counting. That no American wants to spend. Where are the billions for housing, hospitals, or health care that the American people actually want?

The cost of building a new hospital is about $100 million. We're dropping the equivalent of 10 hospitals a day on Iran. Trump decided this war was a better use of taxpayer money than giving Americans health care. It’s not.

President Trump says “when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money.” How about you? Are you making a lot of money?

Donald Trump is demanding billions in personal payoffs from the federal government. It's taking abuse of taxpayer dollars to a whole new level. My Corruption Clawback Act would ensure that the government can get that money back when he leaves office.

Today, the Senate passed the ROAD to Housing Act, a bipartisan bill to expand the housing supply and make housing more affordable. I was proud to vote for this bill championed by @warren.senate.gov. The House must pass this vital reform without delay.

There are few people in the world who have derived more benefit from our war with Iran than the Russian dictator, Vladimir Putin. We explain why: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Usv0...

Can they explain that position to people in LA, Chicago, Portland, Minneapolis or anywhere else that has experienced such abuse practices? We certainly couldn't.

Senate Republicans just BLOCKED the bill @padilla.senate.gov and I called up to reopen FEMA today. Then they demanded we vote to give billions more ICE and CBP, without any reforms. None. 🧵

My heart is with the Temple Israel congregation as we witness another horrifying attack on the Jewish community. Antisemitic hate must have no place in our country. We must condemn it in the strongest terms.

He calls the Iran war — which has already killled 7 Americans and hundreds of civilians — "an excursion." And he’s spending tens of billions of dollars on it. Does that make your life great again yet?

Our disaster recovery efforts should not be held up by Republican's demands to give more money to ICE without any reforms. I'm headed to the floor with @padilla.senate.gov to reject that false choice and call up legislation to open FEMA today.

The Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision has allowed billionaires and big corporations to have an outsized influence on our elections. Our democracy is paying the price. We must keep fighting to get big money out of politics, and restore power to the American people.

Americans can barely afford their medicine, gas or groceries. And instead of trying to make life more affordable, the president is spending billions on a war of choice with Iran. We will use every tool we can to bring the war to an end.

Pam Bondi has failed to explain how her brother and his corporate clients continue to achieve unexpected and favorable outcomes in cases in which the Bondi Justice Department intervenes. @congressmin.bsky.social and I are urging the DOJ Inspector General to launch an investigation.

Why are we at war? Republicans won't even use the word 'war', let alone explain why it is worth risking the lives of our service members. I'm working to put members of the administration under oath so we can get answers.

Donald Trump's war is driving up gas prices. But now he's using this chaos to lay the groundwork to restart offshore oil drilling in California at the sites of previous spills. Californians do not want more drilling off of our coasts. Renewable energy is the best way forward.

I’m introducing a bill to ban bets on war and death in prediction markets. Betting on war and death creates an environment in which insiders can profit off of nonpublic information, our national security is jeopardized, and violence is encouraged. Congress must act.

Another alarm bell in this five alarm fire. Donald Trump is still trying to relitigate the 2020 election six years later. He wants to scare election officials and election workers ahead of the midterms. And he’s using the FBI to do it.

Proud to have helped deliver more than $254 million in investments for projects across California this year. As a result, communities across the Golden State will see key funding to help build new housing, increase fire preparedness, and make critical infrastructure upgrades.

The prolonged refusal to commemorate the bravery of our Capitol Police on January 6th was nothing short of shameful. We must continue fighting attempts to erase or rewrite the history of that dark day.
