California Democrats standing with Senator Alex Padilla today!
These actions against a United States Senator are unacceptable - all for standing up & speaking out for all Californians.
Shameful.

I’m running for reelection as Chair of the California Democrats.
Over the last 5 years, we have overcome so much together - rebuilding our Party & winning up and down the ballot across California.
I’m proud of all we’ve done together & know there is more to do. So let’s get to work! #rustyforchair

Tonight Trump & Republicans are going to try and sell their rotten deal for the American People - higher prices, less safety and more tax breaks for the wealthy & well connected.
No one is buying it.

Republicans have wanted to privatize the postal service for a long time. Now Trump is willing to violate of federal law (again) to do it. A bad deal for the American People.
Breaking news: Trump is preparing to dissolve the leadership of the U.S. Postal Service and absorb the independent mail agency into his administration, potentially throwing the mail provider and trillions of dollars of ecommerce transactions into turmoil.
Trump expected to take control of USPS, fire postal board, officials say
The move threatens to upend trillions of dollars in ecommerce business and the 250 year-old Postal Service.

Tragic airline accident at DCA this evening. Thinking of the passengers & crew on board - as well as their loved ones - tonight.
Many of our CA DNC Members are either in DC or en route. Grateful all are accounted for safe & sound.

Trump’s unconstitutional suspension of federal funding will harm so many working families across America - despite the fact that Congress legally appropriated funds for vital services. Now Trump acts like a bully to bring pain, suffering to the America People.

Trump’s first week tells us how destructive he will be - pardoning J6 insurrectionists & attempting to end birthright citizenship.
Meanwhile, the price of eggs have only gone up & prescription drugs for seniors will soon cost more.
We can’t stand by. We must push back. And now.

Saddened at the passing of former-Assemblymember Patty Berg.
I got the chance to spend time with her earlier this year. She had a quick wit & was never afraid to speak her mind.
She impacted countless lives & she’ll be missed by so many on the North Coast & across the State. Rest in Peace.

We cannot spend the next four years obsessed with Trump’s daily silliness.
But his latest picks - Gaetz (Justice) Gabbard (DNI) & Hegseth (Defense) - go beyond silliness.
Downright dangerous.
