Last year, I called for oversight of NOAA, the agency responsible for protecting marine life. I’m working across the aisle on draft legislation to help prevent these deaths by leveraging data from whale-sightings by commercial ships.

As whales migrate along the California coastline, more are entering the Bay and staying longer. With over 24 whales found dead in 2025 and more already this year, these losses hit our Bay community hard.
Thank you to Dennis & Sandra Fernández and the San José Vietnam War Memorial Foundation for preserving their legacy.
Last week, I joined families and friends of our fallen heroes at the San José Vietnam War Memorial to remember the 142 Sons of San José who gave their lives in Vietnam. Each name carries a story, a family, a sacrifice.
Dismissing this pause in fighting as another episode of “TACO Trump” doesn’t acknowledge the deeply dismal moment we face. Our president is deeply unwell, and the Cabinet must invoke the 25th Amendment.
Didn’t have it on my bingo card that Pakistan would persuade an American president to stand down from threats to commit war crimes.
I admired Rod most for his passion; never stopped fighting for our Valley’s—and our planet’s—future. I won’t forget his firm handshake and kind guidance, and we must never forget his legacy.

Artemis fans who want to follow the latest movements of our lovable lunar snooper can do so at a pretty cool NASA web tracker: www.nasa.gov/missions/art...
Wishing everyone who celebrates a blessed Easter, filled with joy and time with family and loved ones.
Every single one of our meals depends on the difficult labor of a farmworker.
Thank you to Coastside Hope and Puente de la Costa Sur for hosting the 2nd Annual Farmworker Convention and honoring the people who keep our region running.
It will take a generation to rebuild from the destruction of the last 15 months…

We secured $2 million in Community Project Funding to help Pacifica Schools build affordable housing for teachers and staff. Last month, I met with Superintendent Bowman and saw how they’re hustling to get shovels in the ground on this important project.
Brutal rents have priced out too many teachers from the communities they serve.
Wishing all who celebrate a meaningful and joyful Passover. May this holiday bring you reflection, renewal, and time with loved ones.
The plain words of the 14th Amendment leave no room for debate: anyone born in the United States holds citizenship. The Supreme Court must defend birthright citizenship.

We must expand access to care, dignified housing, and pathways to legal status for hardworking farmworker families.
On National Farmworker Day, I'm grateful for the organizations that support our farmworkers like Puente de la Costa Sur, ALAS, and Coastside Hope. Earlier this year, I brought Puente’s Rita Mancera Hernandez to the State of the Union to highlight her leadership and work in our community.
On National Farmworkers Day, we thank the hard-working community members whose daily commitment sustain each of us by putting food on our tables. Today, we honor the movement that farmworkers built, inspiring generations that fight for social justice.

Thanks to two dozen of my colleagues who joined me in pressing the Administration: if Elon Musk’s Starlink won’t meet the performance standards required for more than $700 million in broadband subsidies, then parent SpaceX shouldn’t get taxpayers’ money. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2026...
