Families across the country are paying more for child care than rent, mortgages, or college tuition... it's ridiculous. We need to build a universal child care system so families aren't spending most of their paychecks on this one expense.

Child care in the U.S. today can cost more than families pay for rent, a mortgage or college tuition

In some parts of the U.S., parents pay more than $30,000 annually for infant care at a center, federal data shows.

This is a good step – but we need to establish more guardrails for predatory and unregulated data brokers. The Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act would put checks on all data brokers and help keep our data safe and private.

Health care decisions should be between a doctor and their patient – not the government. I urge the Supreme Court to protect trans rights in US v. Skrmetti.

Supreme Court to hear historic argument on transgender rights

The justices are considering whether a Tennessee law banning gender-affirming care for minors violates the Constitution’s equal protection clause.

Thank you CFPB! Data brokers routinely collect, track, or sell our personal data to shady characters, police, and governments around the world. This much-needed rule would help protect our privacy and national security.

A new proposal by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau would use a 54-year-old privacy law to impose new oversight of the data broker industry. But first, the agency must survive Elon Musk.

We need creativity and new ideas to address all the problems our country is facing. That’s why I was glad to join a workshop with the All Girls STEM Society and chat with some students who are getting involved and advocating for the issues they care about.

It was so great to tour Meals on Wheels San Diego’s new Kitchen & Senior Innovation Hub and hear more about their work to ensure that families in our community have the food and resources they need, especially during the holiday season.

Donald Trump’s mass deportation and broad tariffs plans would devastate San Diego’s economy and raise prices across the country.

The cost of rent is already too high – families shouldn't be paying more than that for child care. That’s why we need to invest in a universal, affordable child care system that meets the needs of every parent, provider, and child.

Families Pay as Much in Rent as They Do for Child Care

American families are shelling out the big bucks for child care, with some paying more for it than they do for rent.

For 110 years, Neighborhood House Association has worked tirelessly to serve our community, from providing prenatal care and wraparound services for the entire family to senior care. I was grateful to honor their hard work at last week's anniversary celebration.

Right now, there are 277 active drug shortages, which are skyrocketing drug prices and delaying patient care. That’s why I’m pushing my bipartisan Drug Shortage Prevention Act so the FDA has the authority it needs to minimize and prevent drug shortages proactively.

The election may be over – but my work in the 118th Congress isn’t.

Investing in universal child care would *lower* the costs of child care, *increase* access to child care, and *strengthen* our workforce and economy. What are we waiting for?

We have almost zero federal protections for our reproductive and sexual health data so I’m glad Clue has promised not to disclose users’ data to the police – but our privacy shouldn’t depend on each individual company doing the right thing.

Period tracking app refuses to disclose data to American authorities

Clue vows to safeguard users following the 2024 election amid concerns anti-abortion state laws could allow phone searches for menstrual data.
