Congress needs to pass a new Water Resources Development Act to ensure the affordability and resiliency of water resources projects across America. At today’s hearing, T&I Dems will discuss their priorities for WRDA 2026. www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_sc...

I won't be attending tomorrow's State of the Union. Trump has cut healthcare to pay for billionaire tax cuts, raised tariffs costing families thousands of dollars a year, and made our communities less safe. I refuse to dignify his actions and that record by giving him the audience he craves.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 23(source)

Hope you can make it! (2/2)

Excited to announce that I’m hosting a big Passport Fair on March 7th at Glendale Central Library! Skip the long lines at other passport centers and get an stress-free experience on March 7th from 9 AM to 3 PM. Walk-ins are available, but I highly encourage you to schedule an appointment. (1/2)

If you are a U.S. citizen in Mexico, you may be affected by a shelter in place advisory if you are currently in one of the areas mentioned below. I wanted to share some helpful phone numbers and resources so that you can access the most up-to-date information and get assistance if you need it.

The Trump Administration spent an outrageous $30 million to deport 300 undocumented immigrants, but tell you they don’t have enough money to make your healthcare more affordable. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

US spent $40 million on roughly 300 deportations to third nations, Democratic report finds

The Trump administration spent at least $40 million to deport roughly 300 migrants to countries other than their own, according to a report compiled by the Democratic staff of the Senate Foreign Relat...

This administration repeals, deletes, and denies science, but they can’t erase the fact that Americans feel the negative impacts of climate change every day. I will always fight for a better and cleaner future for my constituents and their families.

BREAKING: The EPA revokes scientific finding that greenhouse gases endanger the public health, removing a key basis for the climate change fight.

I’ve taken on these Trump cuts once and won back nearly $20 million in lifesaving care for this district, and I’ll fight to do it again. (2/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 21(source)

Once again, the Trump Administration is axing lifesaving investments in healthcare and HIV prevention. He wants us sick and scared - but he forgets he’s messing with California. (1/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 20(source)

The bill will cut red tape around the refund application process & set a strict timeline for when Americans can expect to get their money back, because we simply cannot wait for this relief. (2/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 20(source)

I’m helping lead a bill to provide immediate relief for Americans who were forced to pay Trump’s illegal tariff taxes. (1/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 20(source)

He’s so close to getting it…

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 20(source)

Now, the Trump Administration has a legal responsibility to provide relief for all of the small businesses and families they've fleeced. Trump: pay the people back! (2/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 20(source)

This is a major loss for the Trump Administration -- and a win for the American people and their pocketbooks. These tariffs were an illegal GOP tax on hardworking families. Today, the Supreme Court made that crystal clear. (1/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 20(source)

I joined the rest of my Jewish colleagues in the House to condemn Rep. Fine. His hatred has no place in Congress. (2/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 20(source)

Rep. Fine’s recent vile and Islamophobic comments are beyond the pale. His disgusting rhetoric does not reflect Jewish or American values, and are unbecoming of a representative of our diverse nation. (1/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 19(source)

In order to achieve a more perfect union, we must be willing to reckon with all parts of our history. If we don’t, we’re doomed to repeat it. (2/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 19(source)

We must never forget the Japanese Americans who were wrongfully imprisoned during World War II – no matter how hard the Trump Administration tries to sanitize our nation’s history. (1/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 19(source)

I know the need for affordable housing is huge. That’s why I’m authoring bipartisan bills that will cut red tape and get housing built faster and cheaper, like my Cut Red Tape for Housing Act and Build H.U.B.S Act. (2/2)

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govFeb 19(source)

I had the opportunity to tour the construction of West Hollywood Community Housing Corp's newest 100% affordable housing development in my district. When this project is finished, 89 hardworking families will get to call this place home. (1/2)
