We need to get to 218. Let’s get people paid.
Hardworking TSA officers, Coast Guard, and other law-abiding DHS workers could have a paycheck today if more of my colleagues joined me and 175 House Democrats to force a vote on our bill to get their paychecks out the door. Not a single Republican has joined us.
I cosponsored legislation that pays TSA and Coast Guard officers and other law-abiding DHS personnel—and Republican leadership refuses to allow a floor vote.
Yesterday, I signed the discharge petition to move this bill to the floor, around the Speaker. Let’s get people paid.
We have a choice: educate the best and brightest students in the U.S. to help America succeed, or send them home to China, India, and other rivals to launch companies to compete against us.
Trump threatened to eliminate OPT, which would send hundreds of thousands of innovators back to companies in China, India, and elsewhere to compete against us. 2/2
For context: Silicon Valley–and America–have thrived by leveraging a program called “OPT” to keep U.S.-educated foreign graduate students in engineering, science, and mathematics to our innovative startups. 1/2
Today, I introduced the bipartisan Keep Innovators in America Act with Republican Rep. Jay Obernolte and Democratic @congressmanraja.bsky.social because both parties should agree that America must win the global war for talent.

The farmworker movement belongs to more than one individual, however, and any renaming should elevate other Latina and Latino heroes whose lives honor the legacy and contributions of our people. 3/3
My heart breaks for the survivors who suffer with these painful memories. I support any renewed effort to rename the USNS Chávez or any monument that bears his name. 2/3
As a former federal prosecutor who prosecuted sex crimes—but more importantly, as a husband, brother, and son—I’m deeply disturbed by the allegations of César Chávez’s sexual abuse. 1/3
TSA employees need their paychecks.
Thank you @Leslee.Guardino and Allie Hughes for your recent invitation to a great Pizza and Policy Party with a very engaged group of local leaders. It was good to hear what’s top of mind for folks, as we discussed our strategy for November & beyond.
Kudos to the @almadenrotaryclub for your service to the community. Good to respond to questions and discuss our nation’s many challenges, and our important work ahead.
Had a great tour of Sutter Samaritan Surgery Center, where the team provided m important insights about reducing health care costs and improving post-surgical outcomes at ambulatory facilities. @sutterhealth
Thank you to the more than 300 neighbors who joined our town hall at @SpartansMVHS Saturday. We appreciated your thoughtful questions and engagement re the war in Iran, affordability, and defending the Constitution. To stay in touch--subscribe to my newsletter. liccardo.house.gov/contact/news...
Cheers for @SCCSBA for advocating for our students in this deeply difficult moment. I appreciated the opportunity to meet and discuss the many challenges facing schools including federal funding, student mental health, and preparing students for a post-AI world.
Opening Day for Spartan Little League—featuring revitalized Tully Ballfields! Thank you to hard-working City parks staff, Councilman Doan @biendoansj @san_jose_police and Hector Navarro for upgrading this field of Little League dreams!
🍀Laced up for San José’s biggest St. Patrick’s Day celebration this morning - the 7th Annual Shamrock Run. Thank you to Brendan O’Flaherty, Sean O’Kane, Kimberly Brady, & @SanJoseDublin for launching this event— and to my 2,500 + running buddies for celebrating in Downtown @CityofSanJose! ☘️
