If only President Trump had come to us with a reason for waging his illegal war with Iran. But he didn't. We were never told. Now we're stuck in a quagmire, gas prices are up, and Trump can't get us out of it. I'm proud to support Rep. Pat Ryan’s effort to end the war in Iran.

The days of Republicans being the party of fiscal responsibility are over.  They're spending $1.5 trillion on the military while cutting school funding and healthcare. Democrats want to give our military what it needs and take care of Americans.  Time to step up, Republicans.

I introduced an amendment requiring a report on Trump's National Guard deployments for his mass deportation agenda.  The CBO reported that these deployments cost Americans $589 million.  House Republicans blocked it. Apparently, they don't want to know how much it costs.

Trump just appointed a J6 rioter to the top counter terrorism office in the DoD. A 19-year-old who broke into the Capitol has no business being appointed to a top counterterrorism office in the DoD. This shouldn't even be a debate. He needs to go.

My team and I are aware of the shooting at Sem Yeto High School's graduation ceremony. What should have been a day of celebration has ended in tragedy. I'm praying for the students, teachers, families, and the entire Fairfield community. My full statement: www.cbsnews.com/sacramento/n...

@housedemocrats.bsky.social passed the Iran War Powers Resolution to end Trump's failed war of choice. He promised to end foreign wars but has spent tens of billions, jacked up gas and grocery costs, and put our troops in harm's way. Senate Republicans, find your spine. Stop this war.

POLL: Should politicians in Washington make sure your tax dollars go to lowering cost of gas or building a ballroom? Give your take in the comments!

Trump is treating his Iran quagmire like one of his real estate deals — most of which went bankrupt. This is an international catastrophe he dragged America into. And for what benefit? Nothing. End this war today, Mr. President!

I've taken $0 from AIPAC and regularly refuse more military and financial aid to Israel, for a simple reason. Israel is conducting a genocide in Gaza. Americans deserve absolute clarity. More politicians need to be transparent about who is backing them.

Too many Californians are choosing between groceries and rent, health care and the mortgage. That's not right in the wealthiest nation on Earth. Rising costs are an emergency, and Washington needs to treat it like one. I’m fighting every day in Congress to lower costs for families.

As a proud member of the @equality.house.gov I'm working every day in Congress to defend the LGBTQI+ community’s rights. Our country was founded on the bedrock promise of equality for every American. This month, and every month, it's no different. I wish everyone a happy pride month! 🏳️‍🌈

Soon we'll all be using Trump notes to pay for one gallon of gas.

REMINDER: I'm hosting a townhall tomorrow. You’ll get to ask me anything, from what’s the latest on the Iran war to how I’m bringing jobs to the district. I want to hear directly from you. Join us tomorrow, May 28th at 6PM. Look forward to seeing you there! SIGN UP: t.co/puv6aiIbzC

I don't trade stocks. Public officials shouldn't prioritize their accounts over the American people. Yet Trump made 3,700+ trades this quarter worth millions. Trump will buy, then go on Fox News and Truth Social just to pump up his stocks.

TRUMP: "I get a kick when I look at somebody on television saying, 'he's lost 13 people'" Let's be clear, no president should be proud of losing any service members, and certainly not 13. Today, and everyday, I pray our service members get home safely.

I asked the Trump Admin point blank: "Are we still in hostilities with Iran?" and they can't say what we all know — this war continues and they're still not telling us the truth.

Heartbroken and devastated by the shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego. Everyone deserves to pray and worship in peace. My prayers are with the victims, their families, and Muslim communities everywhere.

I don’t own stocks. I don’t trade stocks. I believe public officials should work for the people, not their bank accounts. Yet Trump is engaging in unprecedented corruption. I’m tired of the underhanded self-dealing. We need to pass the Congressional Stock Trading Ban bill.

Good news. Alligator Alcatraz is expected to close. After spending $1B to house 1,400 people, even Republicans could not justify spending $714,285 a person. This is the administration of waste, fraud, and abuse.

A teacher pays a higher tax rate than a hedge fund manager. That’s because Trump would rather hand a tax cut to the rich than support working families. Meanwhile, Trump is raising your bills due to his war in Iran and taking away your health care.

As we begin negotiating the Trump's $1.5 trillion budget request, it’s imperative that the Army, like all branches, has clear initiatives and defined goals. This Administration needs to get their act together before requesting more funding than it had during World War II.

Team Garamendi hit the road on two wheels this morning for #BikeToWorkDay! Proud of my staff for leading by example and showing how everyday choices like biking to work can support healthier communities and a healthier planet. Here’s to safer streets and cleaner air!

For the third time, I voted to stop the war in Iran. And for the third time, Republicans stood in the way. I won’t stop pushing to end Trump’s war and the instability that’s sending gas prices soaring nationwide.

What's it like to be a Press Intern for a day in my office? From chatting with constituents on the phone to staffing interviews that get under Pete Hegseth's skin, every day is different as an intern on Capitol Hill. Internship opportunities are open here: garamendi.house.gov/services/int...

Gas prices are soaring. Inflation just hit its highest level since 2023. Grocery costs continue to climb. And instead of focusing on the economic pain Americans are feeling every day, the President is more interested in acting like a wannabe dictator.

Trump is directing his own DOJ to settle his case with the FBI for the tune of $10 billion. Are you not sick of the corruption yet?

Americans are struggling to pay for healthcare, groceries, gas, and housing after Trump and Republicans’ cuts. Now Trump wants to blow $1.2 TRILLION on a “Golden Dome” with no clear details and no real plan. thehill.com/policy/defen...

We can tell.

I'm getting a lot of questions regarding Trump’s war of choice in Iran and the soaring prices at the grocery store and the gas pump. To address these questions and many more, I will be holding a Zoom town hall on Monday, May 11, at 6:00 PM. RSVP HERE: zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Natural disasters and rising sea levels are putting our infrastructure at risk. The Bay Area is on the front lines.. I’m introducing the ADAPT Act with CalTrans and @mtcbata.bsky.social. Together, we’ll protect infrastructure, create good-paying union jobs, and lower long-term costs.

WATCH CalTrans, @mtcbata.bsky.social and I introduce the ADAPT Assets Act today. The Bay Area is on the front lines or natural disasters and sea level rise. My bill will protect our infrastructure, create good-paying union jobs, and lower long-term costs. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kayF...

The only reason Trump is blocking offshore wind is to keep our reliance tied to Big Oil. Notice his administration isn’t calling offshore oil a national security threat. Trump is using any excuse to kneecap clean energy and stick you with higher bills. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/04/c...

Senate Republicans just asked for $1 BILLION for Trump's ball room. Last year, Trump told us it'd only cost $400 million. I opposed it then and I oppose it now. If you’re tired of Republicans wasting your tax dollars for Trump's vanity projects, comment what you’d rather see that money spent on.

As a member of the @laborcaucus.house.gov I’m in the fight to protect workers’ rights. This #InternationalWorkersDay and everyday, it’s important to celebrate the hard-won achievements of the labor movement. I'll never stop fighting for workers in Congress.

Hegseth was upset yesterday, but the fact is he and Trump own this war. Democrats aren’t the adversary we represent the more than 60% of the American people who don’t want this war. They’ve gotten us stuck in a war and there's end in sight.

From rent to groceries to gas, working families are getting squeezed. We need bold solutions that lower costs and hold powerful interests accountable. I’m joining @usprogressives.bsky.social to launch the New Affordability Agenda. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/28/u...

It was good to finally get a number on the cost of Trump's war against Iran from DoD. Now we need to know what this number includes and, more importantly what it doesn't cover, like damaged or destroyed equipment and systems. youtube.com/shorts/ED5Ia...

Trump’s unauthorized war with Iran is a self-inflicted national security and economic disaster. I’m introducing a War Powers Resolution to end it. Congress decides when we go to war, not a rogue president. We cannot let this conflict continue. There is too much at stake.

Republicans want to allow warrantless surveillance on U.S. citizens. Democrats are fighting for your privacy. If the U.S. government wants to extend FISA, they need to obtain warrant to surveil U.S. citizens. It's commonsense, but Republicans are fighting it tooth and nail.

No script. No filter. Just facts.

Today I voted YES to end Trump’s reckless war of choice with Iran. It’s shameful House Republicans chose to continue this illegal war- costing lives, raising prices, and hurting American families. They must decide: stand with Trump or with Americans. Put America first and stop the madness.

Donald Trump and House Republicans promised relief, but instead they delivered higher costs. Families are seeing smaller refunds, while gas prices spike and tariffs drive up costs From the pump to the checkout line, working Americans are paying more while the wealthy get another tax break.

The House just passed the bipartisan ALERT Act—a major step to strengthen aviation safety after the tragic collision that took 67 lives. My amendment to close the route that led to this tragedy was also included. We owe it to the victims to protect the traveling public.

Americans paid +$25B to file their taxes this year after Trump killed Direct File. It was a free tax-filing service that Californians and 23 other states could use. 90% of users rated it as "excellent" or "above average." But TurboTax and H&R Block spent $7M lobbying the Trump admin to kill it.

“We face many NatSec challenges. As we look to this year & beyond, Congress must play a critical role in addressing these issues (and) reestablish its authority & responsibility as a co-equal branch of government." @adamsmith.house.gov lays out @democrats-armedservices.house.gov priorities.

I said what I said. We need to look at all options for removal immediately, including impeachment and invoking the 25th amendment.

I said what I said. We need to look at all options for removal immediately, including impeachment and invoking the 25th amendment.

Trump’s threat to wipe out a “whole civilization” is dangerous and despicable. Trump said he’d be a dictator on day one and in last 442 days, he’s governed like one. He is unfit to serve and it's time for his removal either by impeachment or the 25th Amendment. Read my full statement:

“The President is simply out of control." Trump is unraveling as he desperately tries to undo his war of choice in Iran. He is unhinged and must be stopped immediately.

Mark your calendars! On Wednesday, I'll be hosting a virtual townhall at 6pm PT. I'll answer all your questions on the economic fallout from the Iran war, the ongoing DHS government shutdown, the impacts of Trump’s health care cuts, and more. See you there! Sign up: tinyurl.com/as6hdkpm
