This admin’s tariff policy hurts farmers and ranchers across the U.S, and its relief package falls short for many of our producers. I introduced the Specialty Crop & Wine Producer Tariff Relief Act so that our producers in CA-19 can receive the support they need to stay afloat.

This Administration’s military action in Venezuela has left us with uncertainty, instability, and insecurity. That’s why I spoke in support of a War Powers Resolution to prevent further military action in Venezuela.

Great to meet with Planned Parenthood CEO Alexis McGill Johnson on the 53rd anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision. As women’s reproductive healthcare continues to be threatened, it is important now more than ever that we continue our fight to ensure women can access the care they need.

Good hearing in the House Budget Committee where we talked about the need for short-term and long-term fixes to our healthcare. Unfortunately, many will lose healthcare due to cuts to Medicaid and failure to reauthorize the tax credits for the ACA in the purely partisan One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

When it comes to our coastal economy, beauty, and way of life, we must continue to protect it. I was proud host a virtual town hall to discuss this Admin’s plans for offshore drilling along our coast and what we can do to fight back and protect our home from offshore oil drilling.

A constituent reached out to me after his identity was stolen and someone fraudulently filed earnings under his social security number. After working with the IRS and SSA on his behalf, the agencies accepted his identity theft claim and took measures to protect his SSN from any future theft.

Proud to stand with military families to talk about our bipartisan, bicameral MOLD Act. I helped author this bill to help ensure that military housing is at certain standards and that private landlords are responsive to needed repairs. Military readiness literally & figuratively starts at home.
