Glendale, get ready for mobile office hours! If you or a loved one need help applying for federal benefits you’ve earned or have issues with an agency, come by the Glendale Central Library on July 31 between 11 AM and 2 PM to get assistance from my casework team. We’re here to help.

The U.S. and President Trump must do more to ensure that aid flows freely, hostages are released, and the ceasefire is restored. Too many civilians are suffering, and far too many children are going without food, water, and medical care. Aid must reach those in need without delay.

Today’s announcement by Israel to open humanitarian corridors and implement daily pauses in military activity is a necessary step and should have come much sooner. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Israel announces daily pauses in Gaza fighting as aid airdrops begin

Mass hunger is ravaging Gaza's 2.2 million residents, aid groups say, and international alarm is growing.

He truly represents the best of Glendale, & makes the Armenian American community proud.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 25(source)

I’m proud to join @schiff.senate.gov today introducing a bill to rename the Glendale post office after former Secretary of the Navy Paul Ignatius. Paul Ignatius’s remarkable lifetime of service to country & community should be an inspiration to us all.

When flood waters rose in Texas, worried parents & family members reached out to FEMA. Most of their calls went unanswered. FEMA at it’s best has been their before, during, and after horrible disasters. Secretary Noem is running it into the ground – hurting survivors.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 24(source)

An American working full time should be able to make ends meet.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 24(source)

The last federal minimum wage increase was passed 16 years ago today – and it’s clear the American people have gone far too long without a raise. That’s why I’m proud to be a co-sponsor the Raise the Wage Act of 2025, which would increase the minimum wage to $17.

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

@Sec_Noem & the Trump administration claim to love “cutting out bureaucracy”, when in fact @Sec_Noem's has left thousands of Americans with nowhere to turn to in their darkest hour. That is not acceptable, and I’m committed to making sure we hold FEMA accountable so it never happens again.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 22(source)

My Mobile Office Hours are coming to Park La Brea tomorrow, July 23rd. Drop by the Activities Center Complex anytime between 12 PM and 3 PM for help with any federal agency, provided by my talented team of caseworkers.

Natural disasters are more severe and frequent thanks to climate change, and we need FEMA to be stronger than ever. Unfortunately, Secretary Noem and the Trump Administration are making headlines for all the wrong reasons. T&I Dems read a few before tomorrow’s hearing: youtu.be/XTStYoNga7M

Bold move from Rep. Mike Simpson. The Kennedy Center used to honor and host giants in arts and music. Next year, they're going to honor whoever kissed Trump's ring the most.

EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Mike Simpson wants the Kennedy Center to get a permanent Melania Trump makeover

Melania Trump could further secure her place in arts history, if Rep. Mike Simpson (R., Idaho) — one of the House GOP’s veteran appropriators — gets his way.

I’ll keep demanding the transparency and accountability you deserve.

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 22(source)

Speaker Johnson and House Republicans are running scared. I joined Rep. Massie & Rep. Khanna’s bill to force the House to vote on the release of the Epstein files. But Speaker Johnson is sending us home early, hoping the whole thing will blow over. What’s he hiding?

Johnson Cuts Short House Session to Avoid Vote on Releasing Epstein Files

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 22(source)

I led a letter with my @HouseDemocrats colleagues to demand just that. Read more here: https://jewishinsider.com/2025/07/jewish-democrats-pentagon-grok-antisemitism-elon-musk/

Jewish Democrats press Pentagon about Grok contract after antisemitic meltdown

In a letter to Defense Secretary Hegseth, the lawmakers warned of ‘the risk to American national defense from using a compromised product subject to the whims of an unaccountable CEO’

Rep. Laura Friedman@friedman.house.govJul 22(source)

If the @DeptofDefense wants to use Grok, we need more transparency, oversight, & guardrails to ensure that the extremist & unreliable sources it’s using from X don’t undermine our national security.

That’s why I’m a proud co-sponsor of the SCREENS for Cancer Act of 2025, which will expand breast and cervical cancer screening & treatment for those who lack access to these important services.

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

I am a cancer survivor who was fortunate enough to have access to advanced screenings and treatments that helped saved my life. I want to make sure every American has the same access.

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

What a pleasure it was to meet with interns from the Armenian Assembly of America! They asked great questions about how I came to Congress, and what I’m doing to advocate on behalf of the Armenian American community. Proud to engage with these future community leaders.

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

What happened to lowering costs? The very least we could do is protect working people from predatory financial practices. I value people over the profits of banks.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau dismisses $95M overdraft case vs. Navy Federal Credit Union

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, led by President Trump’s administration, has dropped a case against Navy Federal Credit Union.
