I’m in DC, but no sign of my Republican colleagues.
Democrats are here ready to pass a budget and avoid a shutdown tonight, but Republicans won’t come to the table. Some folks in my district will see their healthcare premiums go up by over 1,000% if Republicans get their way.

Pro Bono Project Silicon Valley just received a $600k grant, funded by the Violence Against Women Act reauthorization I supported.
This will go a long way to provide legal advocacy and consultation to domestic violence survivors in Santa Clara County. lofgren.house.gov/media/press-...
For 39 years, Bob Fischer honorably served as the manager of the House Democratic Cloakroom. Thank you, Bob, for keeping this place running, and congratulations on your retirement!
California's Central Coast has some of the most culturally significant landscapes and ecosystems in the country. I'm proud to join @usrepjimmypanetta.bsky.social’s bill to study the Monterey Bay to see whether it meets the standards of a National Heritage Area.
Republicans are about to shut down the government and send healthcare costs soaring for millions of Americans, and the President is busy showing off his gold like he’s a QVC salesman.
Ridiculous behavior at a serious time.

💰GOOD NEWS: Over $39 million for life-saving levee & floodwall construction along the Pajaro River was just awarded!
Thanks to funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law I supported, residents & businesses in Watsonville and #CA18 will finally be protected from floods.
We’re just 1 day away from a Republican government shutdown. They’re not going to be able to jam through their partisan budget, so why won’t they work with Democrats to extend healthcare tax credits?

China is outpacing America in fusion energy investment. Now is not the time to be cutting back on research – we should be doubling down on developing this clean, abundant energy source.
My heart breaks for Grand Blanc, Michigan following today’s horrific attack on a Mormon church. Nobody should fear for their safety at church, at school, or anywhere else in America. We need to take action to prevent this kind of violence.
With flu season right around the corner, protect yourself and your loved ones. Get your flu shot now!

@belgiumintheusa.bsky.social
It was a pleasure meeting with Belgian Ambassador Frédéric Bernard recently to discuss the incredible research and innovation happening in California and how we can strengthen the US-Belgium economic relationship.
Last week, we re-introduced the Redistricting Reform Act to establish independent redistricting nationwide, and it already has 54 co-sponsors, including every California Democrat!
Still waiting on any Republicans interested in ending gerrymandering…
Those who put their life on the line for our country should not be facing the possibility of deportation. Today, with @repmarktakano.bsky.social, we introduced the Veteran Service Recognition Act to provide lawful permanent resident status to our veterans at risk of being deported.

I recently joined @ufw.bsky.social to celebrate the farm workers across America who toil every day to put food on our tables. I’m fighting against this administration’s attacks on them, and I’m working hard in Congress to support them through my Farm Workforce Modernization Act.

House Republicans had a whole hearing last week about “Californication” to criticize the world’s 4th largest economy and the backbone of America’s tech sector.
You can be sure that I pulled up with the facts on California:
