I cannot, in good conscience, support a bill that weakens our Armed Forces by excluding women and LGBTQ+ servicemembers from full and equal participation. Our military’s strength has always come from its diversity, talent, and unity of purpose.

What should be a bill that strengthens our military has been turned into a vehicle for political theater, jeopardizing readiness, morale, and the critical missions our servicemembers carry out every day.
Among them are amendments that would deny medical care, restrict participation based on gender or sexual orientation, and undermine workplace recognition for servicemembers and their families, all while failing to advance our strategic capabilities.
Rather than supporting all who wear the uniform, Republicans have used this bill to promote an anti-woman and anti-LGBTQ agenda. It is loaded with discriminatory and harmful provisions that target women and members of the LGBTQ+ community, none of which have anything to do with military readiness.
Instead, for the third year in a row, House Republicans have hijacked the NDAA – a historically bipartisan bill – to further an extremely partisan and ideological agenda.
Our servicemembers make extraordinary sacrifices in service to our nation. They deserve a defense bill that honors their service by strengthening our Armed Forces, advancing our military capabilities, meeting our global security challenges, and providing unwavering support to them and their families
Make no mistake: Trump’s agenda has never been about putting women and families first. It’s been about putting them dead last. This is what #Trumpflation looks like.
Instead of lowering costs, Trump delivered the biggest cuts to healthcare and food assistance in history – while recklessly driving up prices even more.
These rising costs hit women especially hard. The wage gap persists, childcare is crushingly expensive, and more than 212,000 women have left the workforce.
And because of Trump's never-ending tariff war, everyday costs are also rising, with grocery staples like coffee and bananas up more than 5% since Trump took office.
Thanks to Trump and Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill, families can expect to see costs soar. It is projected that families will be paying $120 more for electricity and $200 more for gasoline every year.
This #NationalFirearmSuicidePreventionDay, you can help by checking in with loved ones in crisis about their access to unsecured firearms. Your actions could save a life. And every life saved is a family kept whole, a future protected, and a voice that continues to be heard.
Suicide is preventable. And preventing suicide means addressing guns directly. Safe gun storage is one proven way to save lives, as well as raising awareness. That is why I reintroduced a resolution to recognize today, the second Tuesday in September, as National Firearm Suicide Prevention Day.
But behind every one of these statistics is a face. A family member. A loved one. A friend. A person whose absence reverberates across families and communities for generations.
Each day, we lose 74 people to gun suicide – more than those lost to firearm homicides and unintentional shootings combined.
If you or someone you know is struggling or having thoughts of suicide, the 988 Lifeline is just a call, text, or chat away.
Remember: You are not alone. It’s always okay to ask for help.
You don’t have to wait until things feel unbearable to reach out. 988 is available 24/7 with free, confidential, and compassionate support for mental health, substance use, and more.
On #988Day, I want to highlight the importance of mental health and suicide prevention and raise awareness about the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
Our community is vibrant, resilient, and one-of-a-kind, and I remain committed to fighting for the values we share.
From health care professionals to business owners, workers, and school administrators, I had the chance to meet with community leaders and stakeholders across Ventura County and the Conejo Valley to ensure the voices of hardworking families are always front and center.
