Hungary’s people just sent a resounding message to its leaders and democracies around the world in defeating wannabe dictator Victor Orbán. Authoritarian regimes breed corruption and lower the quality of life. And when people stand together, they can defeat the forces of dictatorship.

Los Angeles is a world class city and a venue like no other for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Our work securing these important federal dollars will help deliver safe and efficient transportation for the millions of fans in town for the Games. 🧵

Donald Trump taxed families and small businesses with $175 billion in illegal tariffs last year. Today would be a good day for Trump to pay them back.

I will continue to call on @EPA to deliver vital financial assistance for more projects across California.

I called out EPA’s slowdown in approving loan applications that halted hundreds of critical water infrastructure projects, and now we have progress. This new funding will improve water quality and reduce flood risk in communities across San Mateo — protecting community health and safety. 🧵

Local small businesses are biggest engine of economic growth. Great to speak with the LA Chamber of Commerce and hear directly from business leaders and entrepreneurs. We must ensure that we have an economy that works for everyone.

I'm proud to have helped secure over a million dollars in federal funds for Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena alongside Rep. Laura Friedman. These investments will be crucial to replace aging water infrastructure ahead of the 2028 Olympics. pasadenanow.com/main/rose-bo...

And now these birds of a feather confront a hostile wind against them, as Hungary’s voters react to Orban’s corrupt governance and its impact on their lives.
- AS
Donald Trump and JD Vance see Orban as a model to be emulated: a wannabe dictator, eager to erode the rule of law and consolidate power over the courts, the media, and every aspect of public life. 🧵

The President is threatening to destroy an entire civilization. Congress must finally reclaim its war power from this increasingly dangerous president. Before he creates more chaos and destruction. Before more servicemembers get killed.

The Imperial Valley deserves federal investment and support. That's why I'm proud to have fought for and delivered more than $6 million to invest in community projects providing vital infrastructure and support for the environment in Brawley and Imperial.

Hollywood is synonymous with America’s greatest cultural export. But now, American films are shooting overseas due to rising costs. That's why I'm committed to introducing a federal tax incentive to bring production back to America.

If the administration can’t give a clear explanation for why it started this war with Iran, how will they know when it's over? When its goal has been achieved? Unless they just stop dropping bombs and somehow declare… victory. I'm prepared to use every tool I have in the Senate to get answers.

Trump wants half a billion to renovate the White House while you struggle to afford your rent and mortgage. For that money, we could have thousands of new affordable homes and new affordable childcare centers near them. He cares only about himself.

In too many places, families can't afford a home. Meanwhile, giant firms are gobbling up more & more units, leading to higher costs. Congress must pass laws to limit Wall Street's grip on residential housing and should pass my bill to expand the housing supply.

Donald Trump wants $1.5 TRILLION of your taxpayer dollars — a 40 percent increase in defense spending — to help support his war with Iran. Meanwhile, he says we can’t afford Medicare and Medicaid, and wants to gut your health care. No way. No how. We will fight this.

Corporate America should be aware that making any deal with Trump right now will only hurt business in the long term. We need more companies to stand up to this administration and defend democracy and free enterprise.

Trump voted by mail this year. He doesn’t want you to be able to do the same. Why? Because he knows his party is going to lose. This unconstitutional executive order will not stand up in court. And it will not stop the accountability that is coming.

I'm launching an inquiry with @padilla.senate.gov on the alarming actions by ICE at SFO. We must know what immigration data TSA is sharing with ICE & why. The last thing we need are more scenes like the one we witnessed last week. ICE agents shouldn't be at our airports.

The prediction markets industry can't be left alone to self-police. We need strong rules to protect against elected officials exploiting insider information to profit on these markets. I'm joining @slotkin.senate.gov on a bipartisan bill to crack down on this.

Rather than enforce the law, the CFTC Chair is greenlighting sports betting in prediction markets — even though it should be up to the states to decide. Sen. Curtis and I have a new bipartisan bill to ban these illegal contracts & eliminate this backdoor.

Five years ago, we witnessed the immense heroism of Capitol Police, Metropolitan Police, and other law enforcement officers who protected Congress on January 6. This week, we gathered to honor their contributions and bravery with a new tribute in the Capitol Building.

Trump says he needs another $200,000,000,000 for his war. Not for health care. Not for housing. Not for education. Instead, he's asking every family to chip in $1,400 to keep bombing Iran.

Trump installed former chemical industry insiders to run the EPA’s chemical & pesticide oversight. Does that surprise you? I’m working with @merkley.senate.gov to pressure the chemical industry to recuse themselves from decisions that affect their old companies. Our health may depend on it.

Trump’s cabinet thinks Venezuela is going to help us lower gas prices. But then, they also think the repressive regime there is going to erect a statue to Trump. And as you can see — that’s all he cares about.

Today marks 16 years of the Affordable Care Act — a landmark expansion of health care for millions of Americans. Since then, Republicans and Trump have waged war on health care. Their Big Ugly Bill jacked up costs and will kick millions off of their plans. Indeed, it already has.
