Another tragic example of how Trump’s indiscriminate immigration raids are targeting the most vulnerable among us, including the family of a deaf child seeking asylum. The cruelty is astounding. Will do all I can to try to reverse this. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Proud to have helped deliver more than $18 million in federal investments for CA transportation upgrades ahead of the World Cup. All eyes will be on Los Angeles and the SF Bay Area this summer, and I'm glad this critical funding will go toward ensuring a successful tournament.

Pam Bondi has continued to block the full release of the Epstein files. Republicans and Democrats both recognize that. And subpoenaing Bondi is the first step to accountability. But a hearing is one thing — getting real answers is another.

The Trump admin’s $600 million termination of public health grants will be devastating for California. @pelosi.house.gov and I visited the SF LGBT Center to learn more about how these politically-motivated cuts threaten our health system, and especially efforts to stop the spread of disease.

Donald Trump stacked the commission in charge of approving his golden ballroom with loyalists. Yet even they can't deny that a majority of Americans oppose the project. Destroying the White House East Wing to feed Trump's ego will be a stain on our history. www.cnn.com/2026/03/05/p...

Why are we at war with Iran? How long will this war last? Neither Trump nor any of his top officials can get their stories straight. But no matter what, this war is costing American lives and taxpayer dollars. youtu.be/9OLkRWqod5k?...

Two days ago, Sen. Kennedy and I pressed Kristi Noem under oath whether the President approved her $220 million PR contract with the spouse of her former flack. She told our committee that Trump signed off. Today, Trump fired her.

Another tragic, and completely foreseeable, cost of this war.

First, Freedom 250, an entity run by Trump's allies, offers access to the president in exchange for donations for America's 250th anniversary events. Then, the admin allocates $100M in taxpayer funds to it while reportedly raising money from foreign sources. We need answers about this scheme.

Every child deserves a great start in life and I'm proud to have worked with @padilla.senate.gov to secure over $1.9 million in federal funding for Guadalupe Union School District’s Early Learning Center. I was delighted to visit and see firsthand the impact of these investments.

My thoughts are with the family and loved ones of Chief Warrant Officer Robert Marzan, and all of Sacramento, who are mourning the loss of one of their own. And I pray for every servicemember in harm's way. May God protect our troops.

If the Senate continues to forsake Congress's war powers and its responsibility, there will be soon no constraint left on this president or any other to make war whenever they choose, wherever they choose. And the American people and our sons and daughters will pay the price in blood and treasure.

The Trump Administration is trying to strip veterans of their reproductive freedoms by banning the VA from providing abortion counseling and care. I'm pushing the administration to respect their service and reverse course on this draconian attack on our veterans' health and freedom.

Los Angeles has seen giant corporate landlords buying up droves of lots in the wake of devastating fires — lowballing offers and taking advantage of vulnerable families. My new bill cracks down on this practice on behalf of every Californian and American recovering from a natural disaster.

Kristi Noem is taking no responsibility for how DHS is operating under her “leadership.” The American people deserve accountability for ICE and CBP's violence in our streets. This has to stop.

Taxpayers are funding a $220 million propaganda campaign promoting... Kristi Noem. I asked Secretary Noem how these lucrative government contracts ended up with the PR firm which formerly ran her campaign ads, and which is run by the husband of her staff. Here's what she had to say:

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem testified that detainees receive medical attention within 12 hours. That’s just plain false. Listen to the U.S. Citizens who were wrongfully detained and denied critical care.

The Trump administration knew from the start of this war of that Iran would retaliate. But they didn't anticipate needing to evacuate Americans in the region? The lack of planning for this war of choice is putting even more American lives at risk.

Within hours of the killing of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, Kristi Noem said they were engaged in domestic terrorism. That was an unfounded and pathetic slur. Today, she again made it clear she sees nothing wrong with misleading the public.

@raskin.house.gov, @blumenthal.senate.gov, and I are continuing to demand answers — including the role Trump fixer Boris Epshteyn played in brokering these corrupt bargains.

Top law firms are still providing free legal services at Trump's bidding, even though doing so may be a clear violation of the law. Just one day after the administration said it would abandon its defense of its attacks on law firms, they unsurprisingly reversed course. 🧵

The same administration that removed historical testaments to Jackie Robinson and the Navajo Code Talkers has no problem with this new banner. We have entered a dangerous new period of censorship and propaganda.

We must address this insidious threat. Last week, I led calls to the CFTC urging the agency to uphold the law and halt these contracts. If the CFTC won’t act, Congress must. www.cnbc.com/2026/02/24/s...

Gambling on war and death doesn’t just present national security risks, it also raises serious concerns about potential insider trading — presenting unscrupulous government officials with a chance to profit off the new war in Iran. These contracts are immoral. The CFTC can and must ban them.

Congress holds the power to declare war - not the President. I will be joining Senators Kaine, Paul and Schumer in forcing a vote on our war powers resolution to make it clear: Congress has not authorized this use of our military.

Donald Trump has not made the case to the American people for his new war. There was no imminent threat to the country that justified putting our troops at risk. I'll be helping force a debate and vote in the Senate that would end it.

Congress should immediately return to vote on the Kaine Paul Schiff Schumer War Powers Resolution.

Trump is drawing our country into yet another foreign war that Americans don’t want and Congress has not authorized. The Iranian regime is a brutal and murderous dictatorship. But that does not give Trump the authority to unilaterally initiate a war of choice.

Big corporate landlords, including private equity & Wall Street firms, have driven up housing costs across the country. I'm proud to join @warren.senate.gov in a bill to end tax benefits for major corporate landlords & reinvest those tax savings to help people afford homes.

Donald Trump and Kristi Noem are spending more than $144 million on guns, ammo, and “less lethal” accessories for ICE and CBP. We went through the contracts to expose this taxpayer-funded arsenal. Here's what we found: youtu.be/0M5t3tled9o
