Republicans lost big time last night - and they have the man sitting in the White House to blame. Democrats are rebuilding our party, expanding the tent, and fighting for working class voters.

On Tuesday, Zohran Mamdani will be elected Mayor of NYC, Abigail Spanberger will become Governor of Virginia, Mikie Sherill will be elected New Jersey Governor, and California will pass Prop 50.

Our California beaches and coast may threatened by Trump’s plan to expand drilling off our coast. This would greatly impact LA & Orange County beaches. I'm co-sponsoring 3 bills to fight back against these reckless actions.

Donald Trump is demolishing part of the White House—the People’s House—to build his own grand ballroom and put his billionaire friends’ names all over it. @robertgarcia.house.gov, @repyassansari.bsky.social, and @naturalresources.bsky.social's @rephuffman.bsky.social are demanding answers.

House Republicans are now on their THIRD WEEK of vacation during a government shutdown. Democrats are in D.C. demanding an end to the shutdown and a full release of the Epstein files. Release them, NOW.

It’s become crystal clear, Speaker Johnson doesn’t want Congress to come back in session because they don’t want the Epstein files released. Stop the shutdown - release the files!

Absolutely no pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. It’s time for her to answer our questions.

Garcia: It’s really shocking for him to essentially lean into this possibility of a pardon. And we know why that’s the case, right? He wants to control what she says. He wants her—someone who has a ton of information on what actually happened—to perhaps… omit memories she might have of the president
