Political violence has no place in our democracy. @gabbygiffords.bsky.social is a hero who makes our communities safer. Since the Tucson shooting 15 years ago, where six people were killed and Gabby and many others were injured, she has fought hard to make sure gun violence has no place in America.
Today marks 15 years since a gunman tried to assassinate me. He shot 19 people and killed six.

I almost died, and think of those who did every day.

It’s been one year since the wildfires that devastated our LA communities. The fires took people’s homes, schools, and tragically, several lives. Today, we remember those we lost and honor the brave first responders who protected our communities.

This is the first step towards ensuring over 20 million Americans can continue to afford health care.

Now, Republicans need to vote with @housedemocrats.bsky.social TOMORROW to extend the tax credits — American lives are at stake.

ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis today. My thoughts are with her family and the Minneapolis community.

This agent must be held accountable. The head of ICE must be held accountable. Donald Trump and Stephen Miller must be held accountable and they need to end their terror tactics.

It’s been 5 years since the January 6th attack on the Capitol. On that day, Donald Trump incited rioters to storm the Capitol to stop the legitimate transfer of power. Today, @housedemocrats.bsky.social and @democrats.senate.gov remember the brave officers who protected our democracy.

Congress is back in session THIS WEEK so @housedemocrats.bsky.social forced a vote to restore the tax credits that will help lower health care costs for millions of Americans.

Families across the US are now forced to risk going without health care or paying thousands of dollars more just to afford coverage— all because Republicans let the tax credits expire that help keep health care premiums down.

Unlike CBS News, Frontline PBS ran their report recently on stories from some of the migrants sent to the notorious CECOT prison in El Salvador. Trump & his enablers can’t erase the truth about what happened. Watch the PBS piece.

Delighted to have celebrated Komiska Noc earlier this month with our Croatian American Club in #SanPedro and Renee Pea, the Consul General of Croatia in #LA! We celebrated nearly 40 US citizens as they took their oath for dual citizenship.

The money for Trump’s “Warrior Dividends” has already been approved by Congress for troops so they can afford housing and basic living expenses.

Trump is NOT rewarding our service members with new bonuses, he’s just renaming funds that troops were already going to receive to score political points.
Trump will use military housing money for $1,776 Pentagon bonuses
The Trump administration will repurpose $2.6 billion in military housing assistance to pay $1,776 “warrior dividend” bonuses to service members, according to a senior administration official.

Despite bipartisan support for a vote on @housedemocrats.bsky.social’ bill to extend the health care tax credits for 20 million Americans, Republican leadership refused to hold a vote before premiums spike on January 1st. Shame on them.

A majority of Members in the House agree —we should extend the ACA tax credits so Americans can keep their health insurance. 214 Democrats and 4 Republicans.

Speaker Johnson canceled votes tomorrow…which means he should bring up a vote TODAY to extend the health care tax credits before they expire.

Health care is a biosecurity issue: if Americans don’t have access to health insurance, they are at greater risk of getting sick or dying from infectious diseases.

Last week, the FCC took a critical step to make emergency alerts available in more languages. This is a life-saving change for people in my community who don’t speak English fluently.

Americans should run as far and fast as they can from Republicans’ health care plan, which fails to help Americans afford their health insurance coverage.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social have a better option that would extend the tax credits for 3 years and help Americans afford their health care.
