I just reviewed some of the unredacted Epstein files at the Department of Justice. Trump and many powerful people are often mentioned, but there’s also MILLIONS of files the DOJ continues to withhold in violation of the law. This coverup needs to end.

CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

I’m proudly co-sponsoring @repyassansari.bsky.social’s three bills to rein in Trump’s lawless ICE agents. The Republican’s Big Ugly Bill slashed healthcare while giving $75 billion to ICE (more than we even fund our Marine Corps). Congress needs to fix this immediately.
Members of Congress from across the country—and across the political spectrum—are joining me to drain ICE, end inhumane detention, and expose the true cost of mass deportation.
It’s time to end the abuse and hold ICE accountable.

The bravery of the Epstein survivors should be applauded, not ignored by our nation’s leaders.

The Department of Justice and the FBI are not fully complying with the release of the Epstein files as mandated by law. When I asked Pam Bondi about the lack of transparency, AG Bondi responded with theatrics and regurgitated White House talking points.

The reductions being made at the Department of Veterans Affairs are an outrageous disservice to our nation’s heroes. I just met with Local 2110 of AFGE to discuss the need for Congress to protect federal workers and veterans healthcare.

NASA is designing and testing the next generation of aircraft right here in Santa Clara County. It was a pleasure to visit the Unitary Plan Wind Tunnel at Ames Research Center with NASA Administrator. The work they’re doing is critical to America’s leadership in aeronautics.

Trump’s policies are driving up costs in #CA18 and across the country. From soaring healthcare premiums to high grocery bills, Americans just can’t afford Republicans’ disastrous agenda.

Trump is now suing the DOJ for $230 million and the IRS for $10 BILLION. Americans can’t even afford groceries or healthcare right now, but he’s still trying to steal money from the taxpayers. It’s sickeningly greedy and corrupt.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent admits that if Trump successfully sues the IRS for $10 billion, that money would come from taxpayers.

You know how many hearings Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee have had this Congress about free speech in Europe? Three.
How many hearings have they held to question DHS officials about their agents brutalizing Americans? Zero.

Wealth inequality is now the worst it’s been in 60 YEARS.
Republicans gave huge tax cuts to the rich in their Big Ugly Bill, but the rest of America is getting crushed by Trump’s tariffs and policies. When are they going to stand up for regular Americans? www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/01/...

Wealth inequality and the 'K-shaped' economy are more striking than ever, data shows
The K-shaped economy is as apparent as ever and isn't going away anytime soon, economists say.

Trump is raiding election offices and saying Republicans should take power from the states to nationalize elections. He knows that Americans disapprove of his party’s disastrous agenda, and he wants to control elections so that they can win even if they lose.

Today, I once again voted no on giving more money to Trump’s out-of-control ICE agents. I will not support funding as long as they continue lawlessly brutalizing our communities.

Republicans had a markup on balancing the budget today. They should’ve thought of that BEFORE slashing taxes for the rich and sending more money to ICE than our Marine Corps.

Donald Trump has repeatedly said that Americans won’t pay for his tariffs, but guess what? 96% of the tariff costs last year were absorbed by American consumers and businesses.

New research shows Americans pay 96% of Trump-era tariff costs, adding $1,400 yearly to households while failing to boost manufacturing jobs.

Great to visit Santa Cruz METRO and ride one of their buses to the Watsonville Transit Center. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law I voted for provided $1.1 million for their vehicle replacement project, and I’m looking forward to further opportunities to improve transit in #CA18.
