Proud to represent San Diego and a new generation of leaders in Congress.
Happy birthday to the U.S. Marine Corps. Marines have played a crucial role in defending our country for 250 years and are an integral part of our San Diego community. Thank you and your families for your service and sacrifice. Semper Fi.

I’m so proud of how our San Diego community has come together during these difficult times – but it shouldn’t have to be this way. We should have affordable health care, groceries, housing, and a government that actually works.

Both Senate Democrats and Republicans have failed in their responsibility to address the health care crisis and rein in a dangerous president who consistently ignores Congress’s authority and the rule of law. This “deal” is offensive to the American people and I won’t support it.

Democrats have been demanding meetings to negotiate and reopen the government and Republicans have repeatedly refused. We can’t go on like this.

I joined the San Diego Food Bank for an emergency food distribution for federal workers, military families, and everyone needing some extra help right now. It shouldn’t take a court order to force the Trump Administration to do the right thing and even partially fund SNAP.

Our child care system is very broken. We need bold solutions.
That's why I introduced the LEGACY Act – to tax trust fund kids more and invest that money to build a free, federal, universal, and multimodal child care system.

Donald Trump campaigned on ending the forever wars but he’s launched unconstitutional strikes on Iran and illegal strikes in the Caribbean. He wants to test nuclear weapons again – and now he’s threatening to go to war with Nigeria. This is reckless and doesn’t make us any safer.
