Donald Trump promised Americans wouldn’t pay for his policies – but we have.
Tariffs? Each family has already paid $1,700.
His war in Iran? Gas, groceries, and utility costs are through the roof.
His ballroom? They just asked for $1 billion in taxpayer dollars.

The Trump Administration is targeting my friend, Rep. LaMonica McIver, for doing her job conducting oversight of an ICE facility in her district. Trump's tactic is to make us feel alone and isolated – but we're not. Building community makes us stronger.
Most Americans say Trump isn’t mentally fit enough to be President…and yet Secretary Hegseth refused to say the same (or disagree!) when I asked him this last week.
Millions of Americans are struggling to afford gas and groceries to make it through the week – let alone child care and housing.
But Senate Republicans and Trump don’t care. They want $1 billion of YOUR taxpayer dollars to pay for a stupid ballroom anyway.
This is a ceasefire in name only. Israel needs to adhere to the ceasefire and work in good faith toward a permanent end to the larger war with Iran and Lebanon.
More pipelines mean more spills that we pay for – with our own tax dollars, worsened health, and stifled productivity. Corporations will just rake in the profits.
This is a huge relief, but the fight’s not over. I signed an amicus brief along with hundreds of my colleagues to the Supreme Court urging them to overturn the Fifth Circuit decision. Mifepristone must remain widely accessible.
President Trump is continuing a long U.S. tradition of holding our partners to different standards than everyone else: selling billions of dollars in weapons to Israel and the UAE – despite their atrocities in Gaza and Sudan. This hypocrisy hurts us.
It’s MY constituents who are fighting this war in Iran right now – and they deserve full transparency about the nuclear risks at play. It’s time for the U.S. government to finally acknowledge Israel’s nuclear weapons capabilities.
The Trump Administration is traumatizing and punishing migrant children as young as 4 years old – putting up legal barriers so they don’t have due process, making them appear in court alone, and speeding up their deportation. It’s heartless and wrong.
Gas in San Diego is over $6 because of Trump’s unnecessary war in Iran – not anything else. We need to end this war now to get gas prices back to normal.
And we all know how the wars in Iraq and Vietnam turned out…
Donald Trump should take a cue from history: cut his losses and end the war in Iran today.
It’s been 61 days since Donald Trump started his unnecessary war of choice in Iran – 1 day past the legal requirement to get Congressional authorization. Congress needs to fulfill its constitutional duty and vote to end this war now.
We’re 60 days into this war, and the American people are worse off by every measure. This should be a red line for every single one of my colleagues. Now is the time to stop Donald Trump’s war in Iran before it’s too late.
Any attempts to prolong this reckless, costly, and unnecessary war of choice are insulting to my constituents – 2,500 San Diego Marines who are off the coast of Iran fighting this war – and to all Americans who are paying the price at the gas pump and the grocery store.
Trump and his army of sycophants are already trying to claim that the ceasefire stops the 60-day clock… but it doesn’t.
Today marks 60 days of Donald Trump’s war in Iran, which triggers the legal requirements under the 1973 War Powers Resolution. Trump is legally obligated to get congressional authorization for this conflict or end hostilities immediately. This isn’t a suggestion – it’s the law.
I had so much fun at the Linda Vista Multi-Cultural Fair! Our community is strong and vibrant because it’s made up of so many different cultures and traditions – and as long as we keep coming together, no one can take that away from us.
Free live music on Adams Avenue? Sign me up! It was so great to stop by Adams Ave Unplugged last weekend, with 90 live music performances hosted by local bars, restaurants, and cafes. Such a cool event in our community!
My team joined The Center’s annual Dine Out for Life fundraiser (which supports their health and wellness programs for San Diego’s LGBTQ+ community) with a quick stop at Mariposa Ice Cream in Normal Heights!
