Today, I voted no on the abhorrent Republican “Stopping Indoctrination and Protecting Kids Act” meant to ban any discussion of trans people or topics in the classroom and target the wider LGBTQ+ community. I condemn anti-trans hate and bigotry.
At yesterday’s House Armed Services Committee hearing, I pressed the Commander of U.S. Africa Command, General Anderson, on why this administration dismantled USAID and how that affects our regional diplomacy. The president is alienating our key allies and leaving a void for our competitors to fill.
I look forward to working with my colleagues in Congress and the Administration to pass this commonsense reform that will increase military readiness. I’m committed to providing our servicemembers and their families with the fair compensation and benefits they’ve earned.
This week, Congressman Bergman and I sent bipartisan letters to President Trump, @deptofwar.bsky.social, and the White House office of Management and Budget, urging them to prioritize duty status reform in budget negotiations for next year.
Today, we celebrate 61 years of President Johnson’s groundbreaking National Head Start early education program. Head Start has helped over 40 million children grow, succeed, and contribute to their communities. I will always fight to protect our children’s access to early learning.
After years of being denied a green card by USCIS, a resident of La Puente, CA reached out to my office to open casework. My staff worked hard to advocate on her behalf and thanks to their dedication, she got a green card.
Trump's illegal war on Iran has disrupted the U.S. weapon stockpile and could cause a shortage of critical munition. The president’s reckless actions are using up our resources faster than we can replace them. We need to protect our servicemembers and end this unpopular war.
I will always be grateful for my life-changing experience serving in the Navy. Today on Armed Forces Day we recognize and honor our active-duty servicemembers fighting to keep us safe. Thank you for your bravery, courage, and valor.
I’m grateful that Secretary Driscoll is working on finding solutions that benefit our servicemembers and I hope our offices can work together to pass this commonsense reform.
At today’s House Armed Services Committee hearing, I questioned the Secretary of the Army on his position regarding the consolidation of the military’s overly complicated duty status system.
This week, I voted for the 3rd time to support Congress’ right to declare war. The power to formally declare war has always belonged to Congress, not the president. Iran is a bad actor and should be held responsible, but the president has no right to wage war on a whim.
