Californians are already getting notices that their health care premiums will skyrocket in 2026 if the ACA tax credits aren’t extended. Millions of Americans will see a 114% AVERAGE annual increase. That’s ridiculous and unsustainable.

Speaker Johnson MUST call the House back to D.C. to ensure our service members get paid on October 15th. He is unwilling to give military families the security they deserve.

It's not partisan—it’s governing, and House Republicans are choosing to gamble military paychecks.

Visited the Oceanside Navigation Center earlier this week with Mayor Esther Sanchez. The shelter houses 50-75 people, helping them get back on their feet and into permanent housing. Proud to have delivered $2.25 million in federal funding to support this project.

Your health insurance through work could face higher premiums next year

Employer surveys estimate health plan costs will climb 9% next year, which may show up in workers’ monthly premiums or through higher deductibles and copays.

Millions of Californians will soon receive notices that their health care premiums are about to DOUBLE.

Meanwhile, House Republicans are on VACATION instead of doing their jobs, even though states like Texas and Florida could be hit even worse!

Visited Oceanside Fire Station 1 yesterday — a state-of-the-art facility completed last year with $3.5 million in federal funding I helped secure. Our firefighters risk their lives to protect Oceanside and Camp Pendleton, and they deserve excellent facilities like this.

Social Security is a lifeline for millions of Americans, including many that are unable to work due to disability.

The Trump Admin is going against their word and SLASHING Social Security, cutting the benefits of retirees and those with extreme medical conditions.

In California, 660,000 could be priced out of health care coverage if the ACA premiums aren’t extended.

That means parents in Oceanside, small business owners in Carlsbad, seniors in Solana Beach, and families in Encinitas will lose their health care.

Republicans are refusing to negotiate an end to this shutdown and Russ Vought's vindictive power grab is disgusting, irresponsible, and illegal.

Hard-working Americans should not be victims of political games.

Trump signed the law in 2019 that guarantees federal workers back pay after a shutdown. I voted for it in Congress.

The Trump Administration cancelled $8 billion in Department of Energy grant funding—including $3.3 BILLION of funding in California—for projects that would lower energy costs for Americans.

I led my colleagues in demanding that DOE reinstate these projects. This is unacceptable.

My work is simply to support that strength. It was great to join the Vista Meet the Leaders event to hear more about how I can serve them in Washington.

It’s measured in the teachers who inspire our kids, the police and firefighters who go above and beyond, and the families who build their lives here.

The strength of our community isn’t measured in dollars or projects. It’s measured in the way people show up for each other. It’s measured in the businesses that open their doors and create jobs.

Republicans are still refusing to extend the ACA health insurance tax credits. Congress must act now, or millions will see their health care costs DOUBLE.

Don’t just take it from me, here are two of my constituents concerned about their health insurance premiums.

It’s day 6 of the government shutdown and Congressional Republicans extended their vacation by a week while they knowingly drive up your health care costs.
