Proudly representing #CA06 and #SacramentoCounty in the U.S. House of Representatives.
From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!

As we gather with loved ones, let’s take a moment to appreciate all that we have and to extend a helping hand to those who may be going without a warm meal or loved ones by their side.

Janine and I are keeping the two National Guard members shot near the White House in our thoughts and prayers. 

As we await more information, we’re reminded of the sacrifices made every day by those who serve in uniform. 

This violence is unacceptable and has no place in our nation.

The crisis in Burma remains dire.

Ending TPS amidst ongoing civil unrest and armed conflict — just weeks before the junta's sham elections — endangers the lives of nearly 4,000 Burmese nationals living in the United States.

RFK Jr.’s decision to change the CDC website with his fringe, debunked belief that vaccines cause autism is a threat to our public health.

He’s scaring parents, undermining trust in the CDC, and putting children at risk.

That is why my Democratic Doctors Caucus colleagues and I led 65 members to demand that RFK Jr. remove his dangerous anti-vaccine talking points.

President Trump's "peace plan" is a gift to Moscow and a bad deal for the Ukrainian people.

America must not abandon Ukraine in its fight for freedom.

Trump is giving Russia almost everything it wants with his Ukraine peace plan | CNN
Trying the same thing over and over again, without success, is either the definition of insanity or Russian negotiation tactics, depending on your point of view.

I proudly serve alongside Representatives Jason Crow and Chrissy Houlahan on the Intelligence Committee.

They are patriots who revere our Constitution.

They will not be intimidated by threats from the president.

I just voted for the full release of the Epstein files.

This effort has always been about achieving justice and accountability for the victims of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes.

Unlike most of my Republican colleagues, I didn't need President Trump's permission to vote for their release.

The House and Senate have clearly spoken: the Epstein files must be released.

No more excuses. No more delays.

President Trump: release the files.

Durable health care reforms take time and bipartisan cooperation.

I’m ready to do that work.

But first, we must prevent imminent premium hikes for more than 20 million Americans by extending Affordable Care Act subsidies.
November 17, 2025 at 6:51 PM
This week, I signed a discharge petition to force a vote on extending Affordable Care Act subsidies for three years.

We must extend these subsidies to prevent dramatic increases in health care premiums for over 20 million Americans.

Members of the Congressional Doctors Caucus know how important it is for Americans to have access to quality, affordable health care.

Republicans won’t fight for it so Democrats will. We’re fighting to lower costs and save health care.

This afternoon, we will finally have enough signatures to release the Epstein files.

The American people deserve the truth — and the victims of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes deserve justice and accountability.
🚨BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes.

Read them for yourself. It’s time to end this cover-up and RELEASE THE FILES.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Trump does not get to pick and choose what court orders to follow.

The Trump administration must fully comply with this ruling and release SNAP benefits to help families pay for groceries. abcnews.go.com/amp/US/judge...

Nancy Pelosi is a living legend.

Throughout her nearly 40-year career in Congress, she cemented her legacy as a trailblazer, master legislator, and the most consequential Speaker in American history.

We are now in the longest government shutdown in American history.

Instead of bringing both parties to the table, Speaker Johnson has kept the House in recess since September 19th.

Enough.

It makes me proud to be an American every time we have the chance to vote and participate in our democracy.

We must never take that freedom for granted.

Polls are open until 8PM. Get out there and vote, California! 🗳️

The president is openly defying a court order to release SNAP benefits to help families pay for groceries.

Trump does not get to pick and choose what court orders to follow. It is the law. These benefits must go out.

I spent the morning volunteering at the Rancho Cordova Food Locker and saw firsthand just how real the impact of this government shutdown is.

Families are lining up for food because SNAP benefits haven’t gone out on time.
