Almost a month into this shutdown and the GOP still refuses to budge on extending the Affordable Care Act subsidies so that millions of Americans can keep their health insurance.

2025 has been the deadliest year for people in ICE custody. If we don’t stop ICE's violent detention policies, and inhumane facilities, more people will get hurt or die. www.npr.org/2025/10/...

Early voting begins today, California. Remember to vote YES on Prop 50 so we can preserve our democracy and fight back against the GOP’s election map rigging.

Inflation is still on the rise while the Trump Administration does nothing to combat this economic crisis. Working families can’t afford higher prices.

A missed paycheck for the federal workers paying the price of Trump's shutdown.

Maybe the president should focus on reopening the government, ensuring the American people are insured, and lowering grocery prices instead of demolishing a third of the White House to build a ballroom nobody asked for.

46 million Americans will go hungry next month due to the GOP shutdown. We need to reopen the government and ensure these programs are funded or more families will suffer.

22 million Americans use the Affordable Care Act to afford health insurance. Now, because of the GOP, many of those Americans are forced to go uninsured because they can’t pay the skyrocketing premiums cost. This will kill people.

We are in week three of the GOP shutdown and now the Trump Administration is illegally prohibiting Congressional oversight of ICE detention facilities. This administration is using the shutdown to hide what they are doing to people in these facilities.

Thousands in my district are seeing their premiums double and wondering if they’ll still be able to see their doctor. Republicans refuse to come back from their vacation, and Trump is focused on tearing down the White House. Enough is enough.

Why is ICE shooting at people? Their violent intimidation tactics must stop before more lives are lost to this government sanctioned violence.

While the government goes into its fourth week of the shutdown, the President doesn’t seem to care. Trump and the GOP refuse to negotiate to open the government and protect access to healthcare for millions.

I’m so glad LA County is establishing long term funding to help rebuild after the Eaton Fire.

“Republicans already slashed Medicaid in their Big Ugly Law. Now, they want to let ACA premium tax credits expire, which will mean higher premiums for tens of millions of Americans.” My constituents can’t afford skyrocketing healthcare premiums.

During a government shutdown, and as he tries to fire thousands of Americans and ignores your rising health care costs, Trump is demolishing the east wing of the White House to build his billionaire ballroom. His priorities couldn't be clearer. www.npr.org/2025/10/...

Trump’s first term was marked by devastating family separations described as “government-sanctioned child abuse.” Now he wants to do it again.

Too many of my constituents impacted by the Eaton Fire, are dipping into their savings just to get by with few resources to rebuild their homes. I will continue to push Congress to grant the federal aid requested in Feb. so we can rebuild our community.

I’m proud of the nurses who spoke out for better working conditions this weekend, and I will continue standing with them in their fight.

The Trump administration is withholding FEMA funding and putting Americans in danger. We need to be prepared for natural disasters like the CA wildfires, and need vital infrastructure and staff in place now.

“Power does not give up without a fight. Our anger will motivate us, but it’s community that will keep us together.” At the 4 No Kings rallies I attended, it was good to see communities unite for our rights.

Today is the last day you can register to vote online in California. If you miss today’s deadline you can register day-of in person. Register to vote today so we can vote YES on Prop 50 on November 4th!

Congress funded a program to invest in solar energy to lower electricity costs and connect rural areas. In August, Trump's EPA cancelled that program. I'm glad to see more than 20 states fight back for their citizens and for our planet.

Instead of working to help Americans afford health insurance and end the shutdown, Trump is focused on building a monument to himself.

Tariff costs are passed onto the consumer, and right now the American people are being passed a $1.2 trillion bill. Working families are paying the price for this terrible economic agenda.

The mail-in ballot registration deadline for our Nov. election is Oct. 20th! If you want to vote in person, same-day registration is available through Election Day. Make sure you’re ready to vote YES on Prop 50 and save our democracy.

By letting these ACA subsidies expire, working families across the country will no longer be able to afford their health insurance—many will forego medical care. The GOP must work with us to ensure we protect affordable and accessible healthcare.

The Voting Rights Act ensures fair representation for millions of American citizens. If conservative justices gut it, Republicans will gerrymander and our communities will lose their power.

“California didn’t wait for the pharmaceutical industry to do the right thing — we took matters into our own hands.” I’m so proud of my home state for taking this step in making insulin affordable to Californians.

Millions of Americans depend on SNAP benefits to feed their families. While the GOP refuses to come to work and reopen the government, SNAP is under attack. We must reopen the government and fund these programs for the American people.

Democracy is on the ballot on November 4th! Make sure you’re registered to vote so you can vote YES on Prop 50 and save our elections from the GOP’s redistricting.

The GOP is playing politics with people’s lives by using this shutdown to try to fire thousands of federal workers in CA and across the country. I'm glad to see the judge halt Trump's reckless actions.

These Idaho families are already seeing the impacts of the expired ACA subsidies, with their premiums going from $51 to over $2000. If the GOP won't come to the table and extend these subsidies, the American people will be priced out of their healthcare.

I stand with the Kaiser health workers fighting for better pay and working conditions.

The Trump Administration just gutted the department responsible for overseeing special education in this country. The impact these firings will have on children and families with disabilities will be devastating. www.npr.org/2025/10/...

The already violent raids by ICE are becoming more and more dangerous. Recently, they have shot pastors and reporters with pepper balls unprovoked. ICE is out of control and needs to be stopped. www.npr.org/2025/10/...

The third round of layoffs in 2 years at JPL in my district is a loss for my constituents and a loss for our country. The cuts to science from this admin are counter to the American ideals of innovation. We will fall behind in space exploration leadership.

Today, we celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day. From art to science and government, our Indigenous communities have made significant contributions to our country. We must also recognize the persecution they've endured. Today, we honor their history and stand up for their futures.

The GOP’s Medicaid cuts are already hurting working families, and Republicans will make this even worse if they refuse to work with Democrats to extend ACA premium credits. We must stand up for these families and ensure they have access to medical care. www.npr.org/2025/10/...

Ready, set, VOTE! This is our moment, California. Vote by mail. Vote Early. Vote YES on Prop 50 by November 4th.

Great time kicking off the Prop 50 canvass today! California: Ballots are in the mail and you can vote YES early on Prop 50 to fight back against the GOP.

The president has illegally deployed the military to our nation’s cities—but we are fighting back. We can’t let this administration continue with their authoritarian policies.

I am calling for accountability and action to address the unacceptable communication breakdowns that prevented my constituents in Altadena from receiving timely evacuation warnings. We need to be ready for the next wildfire season.

I’m appalled that ICE has stooped so low as to prevent patients from receiving care. Hospitals need to stand up for patients, and ICE must not prevent people from getting the medical care they need. Get them out of our hospitals.

We are 10 days into this GOP shutdown, and CA is already bracing for funding disruptions for vital benefits and programs like WIC, Section 8, and HeadStart. If the GOP doesn't come back to work to reopen our government, working families will suffer.

Get your flu shot, California! Learn more about flu vaccinations below:

I stand with the 30,000 nurses whose Kaiser contracts expired this week. These nurses deserve fair wages and better working conditions—and I will stand with them while they fight for better contracts for them, their families, and their communities.

I'm honored to stand in solidarity with JPL Workers United in their effort to unionize. All workers have the right to organize to improve working conditions. Together, we will continue to fight to protect the science funding necessary to answer the questions of our universe.

I’m horrified that the president is weaponizing his Justice Department to go after political enemies—or anyone who works against him. We must stop the Trump Admin from these partisan indictments.
