36 years after the brutal massacre by the CCP of students and peaceful protesters at Tiananmen Square, we’re reminded that freedom cannot be taken for granted. Today, I commemorate the bravery of those who died defending democracy, and reaffirm my commitment to fostering

I had the pleasure of welcoming the California Fraternal Order of Police and the Orange County Employee Retirement System to my office today. I’m always glad to support our local government employees, especially our law enforcement officers, throughout and beyond their service to

Under President Trump, the SBA is set to shutter the Orange County Women’s Business Center–a vital resource for women entrepreneurs in CA-45 that created over 500 jobs in 2024 alone. Today, I demanded answers from Administrator Loeffler on funding cuts to vital programs that

The Republican-led budget bill will increase our deficit by trillions. Inflation and interest rates will rise, making it harder for working families in CA-45 and beyond to get by and get ahead. It’s time for a budget that takes the pressure off hard working Americans so every

On #WorldEnvironmentDay we are reminded that our future depends on our planet's future. I'm fighting for green energy and climate-resilient infrastructure so our children can inherit a better world.

Updated air quality guidelines were set to save 30,000 lives and save taxpayers $275 billion. The Trump Administration just rolled that back. These reckless moves are putting the American people at risk. apnews.com/article/epa-ze…

The United States has long used its military strength and industrial prowess to support democracies and stand with our allies around the world – and I’m committed to ensuring that we never cede that position as a global leader. As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, I

When our civil and due process rights are under attack by the Trump Administration, justice-forward legal advocacy matters more than ever. I was glad to meet with the American Association for Justice to learn how I can help protect our democracy’s foundational legal values in

81 years ago, our brave soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy and secured an Allied victory in WWII. We are reminded now more than ever of the true cost of the liberties we take for granted. As a Veteran, I’m eternally grateful to the service members who made the ultimate

I had a great time joining Q Street at their #WorldPride event, where I was honored to receive the Equality Ally Award. Members of the LGBTQ community have carried our nation forward in countless ways, contributing to the diversity and inclusivity that defines American culture.

I am appalled by this clear violation of first amendment rights. David Huerta is a voice for workers everywhere and I stand with his right to peacefully observe law enforcement activity. My parents came to the United States seeking freedom and democracy - I will never stop

California’s universities are engines of innovation that drives our state, creating opportunities for working families in CA and nationwide. I’m fighting back against these reckless cuts to critical institutions like @CSUF. Our students deserve to access the best possible

President Trump's plan to cancel vital federal funding for California is an injustice to hardworking families across the state who already pay billions more in taxes to the federal government than they receive back in services. California's robust economy and booming industry

As a Veteran and a proud member of the Congressional Equality Caucus, I’m ashamed by Secy. Hegseth’s move to rename the USNS Harvey Milk. Not only is this a waste of taxpayer dollars, it’s an affront to Harvey Milk’s legacy of service and leadership, and to the LGBTQ community. I’m committed

Our community members LA and Orange Counties are all too familiar with severe wildfires made worse by climate change. As fire season approaches, I’m committed to working with my colleagues on the bipartisan Fire Services Caucus to enhance our preparedness and emergency response

Senate Republicans are now threatening to cut life-saving care from seniors who rely on Medicare in CA-45 and across the country. All to pay for billions in tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy. Instead of making our seniors less healthy, we need to strengthen and expand our Medicare

I have full faith in our local and state law enforcement to properly and lawfully manage this situation. President Trump’s activation of the National Guard is not meant to protect public safety, it is intended to incite fear and chill free speech. I encourage all Californians to

I introduced an amendment to the GOP budget bill with Congresswoman Laura Gillen to eliminate the cap on state and local tax deductions so hardworking California families aren’t double taxed. House Republicans rejected it. While the Senate reconsiders the Republican budget proposal, I
