Personal lawsuits against media companies whose coverage offends the president, abuse of the regulatory process to censor the press, and now execution of warrants against journalists.
There has never been a more blatant attack on freedom of the press in our history.

If the administration believes that risking our servicemembers is worth going into another country for oil, let them come to Congress for a vote.
But that is certainly not putting America first.

Natural disasters don't discriminate between party, nor should parties discriminate between disasters when Americans are in need of help.
The California delegation, @padilla.senate.gov and I are urging the Trump admin to deliver the federal aid Los Angeles needs to rebuild, and to do it now.

While Americans are struggling to afford health care and groceries, Trump is more concerned about sending $100,000 each to the citizens of Greenland.
I guess it's Denmark First now.

If anyone blockaded the U.S., launched a military operation to make an arrest on U.S. soil, let alone seized our natural resources, and killed civilians in the process, we'd consider it an act of war.

The real reason behind this meddling in Venezuela is less about drugs than it is about dollars. Oil dollars.

Today's vote to advance our resolution to block further military action in Venezuela was significant.
We'll now have a full debate on the Senate floor over the President's use of U.S. military forces, and a mission that seems to be far more about oil revenues than drugs.

First, they said it was about stopping illegal drugs.
Now, they say it is about starting oil deliveries to the U.S.
In order to create a presidential slush fund.
Same corrupt regime in Venezuela.
And at home.

The Trump Administration is planning to gut emergency workers and disaster preparation efforts.
As we mark one year since some of California’s worst fires, this will make our communities less safe and more prone to repeat disasters.

On the one-year anniversary of the Palisades and Eaton wildfires, I joined @governor.ca.gov and @padilla.senate.gov to hear from fire survivors about their efforts to recover & rebuild.
There is so much more that needs to be done to help LA communities come back from these devastating fires.

One year after the devastating Eaton & Palisades fires, we’re still waiting for the White House to release funding that families desperately need to recover.
The fight is far from over, but @padilla.senate.gov and I are working everyday to make sure Californians get the assistance they deserve.

One year ago, the lives of thousands of Californians were changed forever. We will never forget all that we lost, in life and treasure, even as we strive every day to rebuild and grow stronger with the memory.

As our January 6th Committee report showed, many heroic Americans stood up to Donald Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election.
But the Big Lie did not stop after January 6, and we need to be ready as Trump and his loyalists work again to undermine our free and fair elections.

No one should bemoan the end of Maduro's reign.
But Trump's illegal operation is about more than just Venezuela.
It's about a President believing he has no limit to his power as Commander in Chief.
Congress must say no to this abuse of force.

Donald Trump is clear: he launched this war to remove a foreign leader and now he claims the U.S. will “run the country.”
In other words, Donald Trump wants the U.S. to be an occupying power and control the oil.

During my first year in office, I have visited nearly half of California’s 58 counties.
Wherever I go, I ask the same question: how can I help?
It is the honor of a lifetime to serve the Golden State in the Senate.
Onto 2026.

Californians have paid more than $1,000 in Trump Taxes this year thanks to the President’s tariffs — making housing, groceries, and everyday goods more expensive.
And with inflation still driving up prices, the cost of living under Donald Trump could climb even higher in 2026.

For the first time in a generation, we have censorship of the press.
Not because the government prohibits publication of offending material.
But because the administration coerces and dangles corrupt incentives like help with billion-dollar mergers.

As the top Dem on the Fisheries, Water, and Wildlife Subcommittee, I’m urging immediate action to address this dire staffing shortfall for the sake of our public lands and wildlife.
