I loved spending the day with folks in Alpine, Old Town, and El Cajon, celebrating the country we're still working to perfect. Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸

So fun to be out in Julian today to celebrate the 4th of July!

Taking back control of the House AND the Senate would give us real power to fight back, hold Trump accountable, and do big things like expand health care, child care, and protect reproductive rights. Let's make it happen!!

I’m disgusted by the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold laws banning trans girls from participating equally in sports. We must keep fighting to protect ALL women and girls — including trans women and girls — from harassment and discrimination.

Today is a sad day for America. We’ve lost so much over the past 4 years since the Supreme Court overturned our constitutional right to abortion — but today is a reminder that we need to fight back on every front and codify abortion care nationwide.

Donald Trump is being forced to drop his $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund for his criminal friends because of YOU. Because YOU spoke out and refused to back down. Don’t ever think your voice doesn’t matter or doesn’t hold weight. It does.

Nothing makes me prouder than representing San Diego and our military community in Congress. It was great to be out with our community today in Kensington to recognize Memorial Day and everyone who’s given their lives for our country.

Amin Abdullah, Mansour Kaziha, and Nader Awad are heroes. Their ultimate sacrifice saved so many lives at the Islamic Center of San Diego, and we’re forever grateful for them. If you’re able, you can help support the victims and families impacted here: goodbricks.org/campaign/ics...

I’m heartbroken for the students, parents, faculty, and everyone affected by yesterday’s shooting at the Islamic Center of San Diego. Everyone should be able to gather, learn, and worship in peace, and I’m so angry that a place of comfort and safety was taken from our community.

Thousands of people from across the country descended on Alabama today to rally and fight for our voting rights — and I was one of them. Tomorrow, the fight continues, but we have each other and we have the playbook to win.

Republicans across the country are pursuing a strategy of voter suppression to cling to power through the 2026 midterms despite their deep unpopularity. But this fight is FAR from over -- and Republicans know it. Democrats can and will win in November.

So proud to be a part of this sisterhood supporting Rep. LaMonica McIver. LaMonica won’t be silenced. She won’t be intimidated out of doing her job. And neither will we.

A Trump-packed, science-hating court doesn’t know more about your body than you do. Mifepristone is safe, effective, and saves lives. We will fight this.

Thank you @ordems.bsky.social for inviting me to deliver the keynote address at this year’s Wayne Morse Gala! Together, we can build a country and a future we’re all proud of.

So proud of Virginia for standing up to Donald Trump to defend our democracy. We’re one step closer to flipping the House blue 💪💙🗳️

California just passed Prop. 50 to approve redistricting and now Virginia must do the same. This is an emergency measure to stop Trump from rigging the midterms. If you’re in Virginia, vote YES on Tuesday! And if not, send this to literally anyone you know in VA.

We need justice for survivors and accountability for abusers — no matter how powerful they are, what political party they belong to, or the political circumstances involved. These horrific allegations must be investigated, but it’s clear Eric Swalwell should drop out of the race now.

As Trump and his Republican cronies continue to attack mail-in voting ahead of the 2026 election, we won’t let America forget: Donald Trump voted by mail. If it’s good enough for the President, it should be good enough for everyone else.

We actually *can* pay for child care and health care for everyone if we 1) stop wasting billions of dollars on unnecessary wars and 2) tax the rich more.

Wishing a happy Passover to everyone celebrating! As we gather for Seders with our loved ones, may we find hope and strength in the Passover story.

So, Trump is printing his signature on dollar bills while Americans are forced to pay more for literally everything because of his policies… there’s gotta be a dark joke in there somewhere.

MAGA is divided on Trump’s war with Iran. Even they can see this war is driving up costs and making the world less safe. Democrats will be there to pick up the pieces in November.

Thank you to everyone across the country who showed up for the No Kings marches today! This is just the beginning. We will keep fighting and organizing every day until the midterm elections in November. 💙 #nokings

Our democracy is not automatically guaranteed – it exists because we, the people, fight to protect it and assert our rights. The next nationwide No Kings protests are TOMORROW, including in San Diego. Spread the word.

I’m thrilled Julian is part of the new CA-51 district for so many reasons, including these amazing people at Julian Indivisible! As your representative, I will always show up, listen, and tell you the truth (not just what you want to hear). And, I’m so excited about all the pie!

Welcome to CA-51, Julian!

I went to the Dilley detention center today and heard from young kids, pregnant women, and parents about the horrific conditions they’re in. Thanks to public pressure and the leadership of Rep. Joaquin Castro, the Gámez-Cuéllar family is free. But it’s clear we need to shut down Dilley.

I’m proud to receive the endorsement of the California Democratic Party! Together, we will continue to fight for a more progressive, just, and affordable future for everyone.

I joined CBFD Indivisible last weekend to talk about how we can fight back right now and what we need to do to win a Democratic majority in Congress in November. So grateful to be working to rebuild our democracy alongside such dedicated, passionate folks like Indivisible.

*sigh* let's see what kind of costume cosplay Kristi pulls up in today...

BREAKING: The Supreme Court will allow California’s new, voter-approved Congressional maps to stand. Republicans started this, but we’re going to finish it. Midterms here we come!! 💙

A truly horrifying year already — and prices are still going up at every turn.

The violent and deadly tactics ICE and Border Patrol are using against immigrants and citizens alike are not new or rare – this is a pattern.

Trump is trying to make CBP Commander Greg Bovino his fall guy – but that’s not good enough. We demand REAL accountability. ICE and Border Patrol must be unmasked, investigated, and prosecuted and Kristi Noem needs to be impeached.

Political party shouldn’t matter when federal agents are murdering people. EVERY Republican in Congress needs to find courage (or fear, or shame, or whatever it takes) and stand up for our Constitutional rights. ICE must be stopped – and prosecuted.

Last week, I voted NO on DHS’s budget. Now, the Senate is considering a short term deal so they still need to hear from YOU. Call your Senators: (202) 224-3121 and tell them we need actual constraints to stop ICE and Border Patrol from murdering people in the streets.

If you’re looking for ways to support folks on the ground in Minnesota, consider donating to these organizations. If you can’t afford to donate, your time and voice is still valuable — amplify what’s actually happening to drown out the disinformation.

If you don’t care about world peace unless you get a prize for it, you probably didn’t care about world peace to begin with… Trump’s promise of peace was always empty.

Hard to believe it’s (only) been one year since Trump was inaugurated for the second time… The amount of damage he has done to our country will take years to undo – and some things can’t be undone at all. Critical institutions have been dismantled. People have died.

Kristi Noem should resign – or be impeached.

Republican leadership in Congress has completely abandoned their Constitutional responsibility to check the power of the executive branch. We need a Democratic majority willing to use our authority and hold this Administration accountable.

So Elon Musk's AI chatbot that has been producing nude deepfakes of women and children is now going to be part of our military. What could go wrong… www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

Trump is threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act to deploy troops to Minnesota. I have a bill that would STOP him. Congress needs to pass H.R. 4076 - Insurrection Act of 2025 immediately. If you agree, call your Reps/Senators and share this everywhere.

With everything going on right now, the last thing we need is the flu. So here’s a reminder that it’s not too late to get vaccinated if you haven’t already!

We do NOT need to spend $1.5 TRILLION on the military. We need universal child care. We need universal health care. We need housing and groceries that are affordable. President Trump and this Republican party will never deliver that.

1 week into 2026 and it’s never been more clear: we URGENTLY need a Congress that’s willing to use our authority to check Trump’s power and that’s ready to deliver solutions on health care, child care, and the cost of living. We need a Democratic majority. Midterms, here we come.

Just like everyone else, I watched the video of ICE shooting Renee Nicole Good in her car. It was sickening. And it makes the Trump Administration’s attempts to gaslight the public even more outrageous. We know what we saw. This was murder.

What happened to Renee in Minneapolis could’ve happened anywhere — to anyone. We’ve seen countless videos of ICE’s unnecessary violence in communities across this country, including San Diego. “Absolute immunity” for ICE is bullshit. We demand accountability and justice NOW.

A few helpful DOs and DON’Ts to keep your skin looking ✨ glowy ✨ (And if you need proof that these work, consider the fact that I’m 8 years older than Karoline Leavitt!!)

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate! I hope your day is filled with lots of good food, laughter, and loved ones.
