Peter Marocco, the man put in charge by President Trump to oversee U.S. foreign assistance, including democracy assistance programs, wouldn’t answer if he was at the Capitol on January 6th, 2021 trying to violently overthrow a free and fair election.

By every measure, Donald Trump's tariffs are bad policy. They’re broad – not targeted. They’ll raise costs on American consumers and small businesses. And they won’t even address the fentanyl crisis.
It's absolutely wild to praise Elon Musk and DOGE who broke the law and didn't have the required security clearance to access the personal information of millions of Americans through at least 15 federal agencies – including the Treasury Department and the IRS.
You know what doesn't bring down the cost of eggs, Donald Trump? Firing the workers who were tracking and preventing the spread of avian flu.
AND TARIFFS!
Donald Trump isn't governing “by decorum.” He's breaking the law left and right – illegally gutting federal agencies, firing federal workers, and freezing federal funds. THIS ISN'T NORMAL.
Get ready with me to go to Trump’s joint address.
One reason I’m strongly against Trump’s tariffs on Mexico and Canada: it could raise gas prices in San Diego anywhere from 9 to 20 cents per gallon. You’ll pay more at the pump just because Trump wants to seem “tough.”
Kianna Shlemon’s family restaurants could LOSE 30% of profit because of Trump’s tariffs. I’m so proud to have her as my guest at tonight’s State of the Union to show Trump just how disastrous these tariffs will be to consumers and small business owners.
We’re already dealing with a housing crisis in this country. Trump’s tariffs will raise the cost of critical materials like aluminum, steel, and lumber and make it even more expensive to build new housing that’s affordable and safe.
California imports about $61.5 billion in goods from Mexico every year – on things like transportation equipment, computers and electronics, and food.
Raise your hand if you want to pay a 25% tax on that.
No? Well, President Trump wants you to pay for it.
Together with Rep. Luna and Rep. Pettersen, I am proud to co-lead a bipartisan effort to allow Members of Congress to proxy vote for 6 weeks after they or their spouse gives birth. Congress was designed by and for old men. It’s time we modernize.
Cuts to Medicaid shouldn’t even be on the table. But with the new budget House Republicans passed this week, they’ve made it clear they’ll sacrifice their own constituents in the name of tax cuts for the rich. Shame on them.
San Diegans rely on Mexico for a lot – from trade to tourism to addressing the Tijuana River Valley crisis. We don’t want to hurt that relationship and we don’t want to pay Trump’s ridiculous taxes on goods from Mexico, which kick in on Tuesday.
Trump’s tariffs on Mexico and Canada that will start this week will actually punish American families and small business owners, raising the cost of everything from groceries to housing to gas.
President Trump's transgender military ban is short-sighted and bad for our national security.
Since World War II, the global norms we created – like condemning territorial aggression – have kept us safe and avoided another World War. We shouldn't abandon those norms or abandon Ukraine.
Trump and Musk’s chaotic “move fast, break things” approach is already bad for our economy. And now they’re pushing new taxes on goods from Canada and Mexico – making grocery, gas, and housing more expensive. It’s clear - they’re not working for you.
America is safer when we live up to our values – and that means standing up to dictators and defending democracy. The American people still stand with Ukraine.
So great to talk with nearly 7,000 San Diegans tonight about what I’m doing to protect the most marginalized people in our community and the programs we rely on from President Trump and Elon Musk’s attacks.
Lemon Grove School District’s new and improved Early Childhood Education Center is now open! I’m so proud that I secured over $2 million in federal funds for this center and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things these kids will accomplish thanks to this high-quality care and learning.
