Father, husband, sportsman, and Congressman proudly representing California's 4th Congressional District.
Last night, I voted to begin the process of rolling back tariffs that are driving up costs for American families and straining relationships with our allies. Today, I’ll vote to end the so-called “emergency” tariffs on Canada and get to lowering costs for the American people.

Republicans’ trade policies are so unpopular that Speaker Johnson is holding a vote in the dead of night to protect Trump’s harmful tariffs.

Nonprofits should not risk losing their tax-exempt status simply because this administration and Congressional Republicans disagree with their views. Oversight must be even-handed, not used to target those that the majority doesn't agree with.

Thank you to all the young people across Lake, Napa, Sonoma, Solano, and Yolo counties who walked out to stand up against ICE terrorizing our communities. Proud of you for exercising your rights and speaking out against injustice.

Foreign influence in American nonprofits deserves oversight. But if we’re serious about accountability, we can’t ignore what’s happening inside the White House and across this administration.

Congratulations to the Sonoma Farm Bureau on another successful crab feed. Grateful for the work they do funding scholarships, agricultural education, advocacy programs and ongoing support of agriculture in our community.

Our elections are key to our democracy. The SAVE Act would make it harder for registered, legal voters to vote. At a time when the president is talking about nationalizing elections, we must protect our democracy and every voter's choice.

Thousands of servicemembers currently enlisted in our armed services are non-citizens. They're putting their lives on the line for our country, and they should have a pathway to citizenship.

I voted against ICE funding last week, I'll vote against ICE funding this week, and I opposed creating the agency in the first place. Under Secretary Noem, ICE has become a rogue agency. She must be fired, resign, or be impeached. We cannot allow ICE to terrorize our communities.

The Super Bowl reminds us of the unity that sports can bring when people come together to support their team. Good luck to the Seahawks and the Patriots today!

For 116 years, Scouting America has developed America’s youth into its finest leaders. At no other time has the development of civic engagement, community service, and a moral compass been more important.

No public official should profit from their position, and that includes the president. I introduced the Prevent Presidential Profiteering Act to tax 100 percent of legal settlements paid to presidents so our tax dollars cannot be pocketed for personal gain.

Gun violence continues to be the number one cause of death for children in America, and 90 percent of Americans support universal background checks for firearm purchases.

Layoffs in January were the highest to start a year since 2009. The economy continues to suffer under the Trump Administration, and hardworking Americans are paying the price.
Layoffs in January were the highest to start a year since 2009, Challenger says
With the recent narrative centering on a no-hire, no-fire labor market, the data suggests that the layoff part of the equation could be stepping up.

This isn't a culture war issue. It's common decency. The president's racism is vile and unacceptable. We must stand against it.

Over nine thousand 4th District residents have called, emailed, messaged, commented, and responded to surveys to make one thing clear: Kristi Noem needs to go.

The Bay Area Ridge Trail provides over 400 miles of public trails and counting, opening our beautiful outdoors to walkers, hikers, cyclists, and horseback riders.

No elected official should be able to sue the government and pocket the cash, least of all the President. My Prevent Presidential Profiteering Act taxes 100 percent of any settlement paid to a sitting president.

Great to meet Ireland's Minister for Foreign Affairs, Helen McEntee, with my colleagues in the Friends of Ireland Caucus.

Today marks 33 years of the Family and Medical Leave Act. It is a landmark law that has allowed working people to take time to care for their health or their families without losing their jobs. Policies like these strengthen our workforce, our economy, and our families.

Mental illness impacts all of us, especially our most vulnerable, such as kids, veterans, and people experiencing homelessness. That’s why I introduced the bipartisan Mental Health Research Accelerator Act to drive public-private brain research. Thank you to the researchers leading this vital work.

The DOJ has released millions more pages of the Epstein files, but it’s still not all the evidence. The law is clear: all files must be released so survivors can get justice. The American people deserve full transparency.

Lake County made it clear: ICE is not welcome in our communities. Terrorizing families doesn’t make us safer. I’m fighting to impeach Kristi Noem and make sure we hold our immigration agents accountable with legislation to require body cameras and prohibit wearing masks.
