The federal government shut down because Republicans who control Washington are refusing to avert a health care premium hike.

This moment demands new leadership focused on lowering costs. That’s why I’m running for Congress.

This moment demands someone with the backbone to stand up to corruption and the courage to fight for our communities. That’s why I’m running for Congress.

I’ve dedicated my career to ensuring people have a voice in our democracy, so here’s why passing California’s new maps really matters.

I’m a voting rights attorney, so let’s talk about what’s going on with redistricting right now.

Across the country and in CA-41, families, seniors, and young people are struggling to find an affordable place to live. Why? There’s simply not enough housing. Lawmakers need to do the work to build more homes.

Ken Calvert’s recent vote to gut Medicaid and prioritize tax breaks for billionaires is wrong. We deserve better.

Medicaid and Medicare were signed into law 60 years ago today, helping millions of Americans.

Ken Calvert told us Medicaid was fine and that he wasn’t touching it, yet he voted to cut it by nearly $1 trillion and to kick nearly 40,000 CA-41 residents off their health care.

It's small businesses, like the Mexican restaurant I've been going to since I was a kid, that are the backbone of our economy and most affected by Trump's policies. In Congress, I'll fight to lower costs, help create jobs, and protect businesses just like this.

Trump’s Bureau of Labor Statistics admitted that prices are up this year.(see for yourself here: www.bls.gov/cpi/).

Now, the GOP budget law will make things worse. Prices will rise even higher thanks to Republicans like Ken Calvert, who backed the bill not for us, but because Trump told him to.

Spent the day talking to folks throughout CA-41, hearing what so many are feeling: costs are out of control. Yet Republicans would rather slash Medicaid and gut food assistance. We deserve better.

The Republican budget bill will make billionaires richer while hard-working Americans lose health care and food access. It's shameful.

We need a new generation of leadership in Congress.

My thoughts on the ongoing protests in Southern California. Trump’s deployment of the National Guard is nothing but a power hungry move and scare tactic intended to create chaos.
