Handing out coffee to PSNS workers this morning. You show up every day to keep our fleet ready — you deserve to be paid on time. Our shipyard workers are the backbone of our national defense. I'm fighting to get you the pay and respect you've earned.

1/3 September is #NationalPreparednessMonth. For many immigrant and mixed-status families, preparedness goes beyond storms and wildfires. It also means confronting barriers like language access gaps, exclusion from aid, deportation, and the threat of family separation.
