Global financial stability depends on an independent Federal Reserve. Over the past year, President Trump has worked relentlessly to undermine that independence—drawing ire and concern from experts across the ideological spectrum. 1/4

Semiconductors are sexy again – and drive our economic future. I’m proud to have secured more than $1 million for San José State University to train the next generation of electrical engineers who will help America win the 21st century.

The cracks in the armor are widening. For the first time in this 119th Congressional session, Republicans actually sat down with Democrats to craft appropriations bills–instead of bulldozing us to a shutdown. 1/2

As a former federal prosecutor and mayor, I worked with law enforcement every day–courageous women and men who put service above self. What we see now isn’t law enforcement—it’s lawlessness. 1/4

Shoutout to Palo Alto High School student Maya for using her baking talents to give back to our community. Since last summer, Maya has been whipping up sweet treats for Doggie Protective Services events in Palo Alto—and has already raised $2,300 to support their work. Thank you, Maya!🐾🍪

Our economy and our democratic norms depend on an independent Federal Reserve. As Dr. Lisa Cook said herself, her case will determine whether the Fed sets interest rates "guided by evidence and independent judgment or will succumb to political pressure."

Expanding access to ADU financing helps homeowners become home providers. Today, HUD Secretary Turner agreed my bipartisan SUPPLY Act is worth exploring to address our housing crisis.

I’ll keep pushing to move this bill forward.

"When President Harry Truman left office in 1953, he did not even own a car. He...returned to Missouri by train and lived for a time on his Army pension."

Donald Trump has leveraged his kleptocratic political power to personally enrich himself by more than $1.4 billion in the last twelve months.
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

One year ago, President Trump took an oath to serve the American people. Instead, he used the presidency to enrich himself, the @nytimes editorial board writes. This is how Trump has pocketed at least $1.4 billion.

More than $24B of Paramount's bid for Warner Brothers comes from foreign sovereign wealth, much of it controlled by the Saudi dictator, Mohammed bin Salman (“MBS”), who directed the brutal killing of a Washington Post journalist. 1/2

California is the largest donor state to the federal government—in FY24 we paid $275.6 billion more to the federal government than we received in federal aid. Any attempt to cut off our tax dollars from coming back home will be met with fierce legal action.
