Veterans kept their promise to America.
America should keep its promise to them.
No veteran should lose a home because help was not there when it was needed most.
Congress eventually approved a new program with bipartisan support, and that was a good thing. But it did not change what had already happened.
Relief that arrives after a foreclosure cannot prevent a foreclosure.
That left a months-long gap during which veterans facing financial hardship had fewer tools available to avoid foreclosure.
Some veterans entered foreclosure during that period, losing their homes before the replacement program existed.

Does anyone else think it’s just a bit odd that Jay Clayton, the prosecutor put in charge of the Epstein investigation, the same one Pam Bondi pointed to over and over in her testimony released just last week, was just nominated by Trump to run the entire intelligence community?
Maybe the best part? An all-California infield alongside Senator Alex Padilla, Pete Aguilar, and Raul Ruiz.
In times like these, this game is a much needed opportunity to find common ground for a good cause.
Until next year!
Honored to take the field for my seventh Congressional Baseball Game last night, a tradition that goes back 117 years. Together we raised $3.25 million for local DC charities with over 30,000 fans at Nationals Park.
We can lower the risk and lower the bills at the same time.
Your insurance should be there when the worst happens, and I won’t stop until it is. wapo.st/4aECq5Y
And it is why my own Energy Bills Relief Act includes a grant program to harden the grid against wildfire risk, so we prevent the fires sparked by aging power lines and stop utilities from passing those costs straight to ratepayers.
That is why I support Adam Schiff’s INSURE Act, which would create a federal reinsurance program to bring premiums down, keep insurers in the market, and require them to actually cover wildfires and floods.
This is a bait and switch that leaves disaster survivors holding the bill while companies protect their profits.
We need to fight this on two fronts.
So insurers found a loophole, slipping these deductibles into loosely regulated surplus line policies sold to the very people who already couldn’t find coverage anywhere else. They were told to stop years ago.
They did it anyway.
sometimes 50 percent of a home’s coverage, more than $3.5 million in one case, that a family has to pay out of pocket before a wildfire claim gets a dime.
California law already bans this.
A fire is a fire, and the law says your home is covered no matter how it burns.
Californians, read this and get angry.
After many in our state lost everything in last year’s fires, insurance companies quietly buried “wildfire deductibles” in their policies.
Not the standard deductible.
A separate one,

Eighteen people have died in ICE custody in the first five months of this year. ICE is on pace to pass last year’s toll, which was already the highest in two decades. So what is ICE doing about it?
It is making the deaths harder to count.
Look at who Trump is choosing. His former criminal defense lawyer for Attorney General. A housing official with zero intelligence experience is set to run our spy agencies, picked mainly for his record of filing charges against the president’s critics.
Blanche and Pulte must not be confirmed.
Every rigged contract and every dropped case is paid for by families who follow the rules.
This is not about left or right.
It is about whether the same laws apply to everyone.
I will not look away, and neither should you.
I take no corporate PAC money and I do not trade individual stocks, because the day public office becomes a tool to enrich insiders, it stops being public service.
