Beneath his Hawaiian shirts, easy demeanor, and good humor, Father Peter Pabst heart beat with fierce commitment to the vision that every child–regardless of their family’s poverty–have access to college and future success.

Mark your calendars! Join me for a town hall in Half Moon Bay on Monday, June 15 at 6 PM in the Grand Oak Room at the Ted Adcock Community Center. I can't wait for our discussion. Doors open at 5:30 PM. Seating is first come, first served. Let us know if you can make it forms.gle/YPwdecmZenHW...
SJSU provides the antidote to the maxim that “while talent is equally distributed, opportunity is not”; today Silicon Valley employs more engineers and software developers graduating from SJSU than from any other university.
Congratulations to San José State University for ranking No. 2 in the nation for data-driven programming and software engineering skills. (And yes– those skills still matter in a post-AI world; one Nvidia exec told me they’re hiring 3,000 software developers this year.)
Think you’ve got what it takes to code the next big thing?

Americans deserve confidence that foreign investors can't access sensitive personal data or exert influence over major American news outlets.
I joined @warren.senate.gov, @schiff.senate.gov, and @blumenthal.senate.gov in urging the US Treasury to conduct a full national security review of the proposed Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger, financed in large part by the Saudi crown price and sovereign wealth funds in Qatar and Abui Dhabi
CBS hired Bari Weiss to appease Trump, and she just fired 60 Minutes’ Scott Pelley, one of America's most respected journalists. If David Ellison takes control of CNN, how long before Anderson Cooper gets the boot? Democratic societies depend on independent and free journalism; ours will suffer.
Meanwhile, our MAHA-inspired administration has “ended the war on saturated fat,” and spent $150 million to prop up sugar growers.
While tariffs and a war drive grocery prices higher for struggling families, the House majority just voted to cut $141 million from a program to provide fresh fruits and vegetables for low-income pregnant women and children.
As engineers assess the damage, we will stand ready to support efforts to protect critical infrastructure and preserve the landmarks that define our coastline.
Our coastal communities know this story all too well: aging infrastructure, growing storm surges, and rising sea levels threaten the places we know and love.
Amid this terrible news for Pacifica, we should feel grateful for the rapid response from local officials to protect public safety. The Pacifica Pier has long served as a gathering place for residents, visitors, fishermen, and local businesses.

Another whale has died in the Bay, likely hit by a passing ship. Nearly 1 in 5 gray whales that enter the Bay die there, and it's past time to protect these beautiful creatures. My Save Willy Act would use crowdsourced data to help protect whales by helping mariners to avoid deadly collisions.
We passed a War Powers Resolution. www.youtube.com/shorts/Py6A_...
Common sense prevailed today. Rising costs and mounting public outrage forced even members of Trump’s own party to reject his war. The Senate must vote on this War Powers Resolution with haste so we don’t lose this temporary episode of sanity.
We are starting to see the triumph of common sense over corruption here in Washington D.C.
Thank you to the students who formed our first cohort of our Youth Advisory Committee. These young leaders tackled major challenges facing our community, from Medi-Cal access to AI and wildfire resilience. I cannot wait to see where their ideas, leadership, and public service take them–and us–next.
Half Moon Bay, I’m coming your way! Join me for a town hall on Monday, June 15 at 6 PM in the Grand Oak Room at the Ted Adcock Community Center. I can't wait for our discussion. Doors open at 5:30 PM. Seating is first come, first served. Let us know if you can make it forms.gle/YPwdecmZenHW...
Bill Pulte and Donald Trump continue to redefine the meaning of “intelligence.”
