Senator Jerry McNerney
@senmcnerney.bsky.social
Senator of CA's 5th District, which includes Alameda County's Tri-Valley & all of San Joaquin County. Former member of Congress for 16 yrs. Recovering mathematician.
The stubborn, decades-old myth that Republican policies are better for the U.S. economy than Democratic ones is finally shattering.

It's about time.

I want to express my deepest thanks to my friend and former longtime colleague Nancy Pelosi on her unparalleled career serving our country and congratulate her on her announced retirement. She is a true political icon and trailblazer.

Folks, thanks to a lawsuit filed by CA and 20-plus other states, the Trump admin will soon send out SNAP/CalFresh benefits for Nov.

But because the Trump admin. initially (and unlawfully) refused to use emergency SNAP funds, CalFresh benefits will be delayed for 5.5 million hungry Californians.

Proud to stand with my friend & former colleague Congressman @ericswalwell.bsky.social & with Assemblymember @asmlizortega.bsky.social to speak out against the Trump shutdown of the federal government and the GOP's draconian cuts, which will kick millions of Californians off of health care coverage.
