Thank you @sanmateofarmbureau for your advocacy for San Mateo County’s farmers on our Coastside. I appreciated the opportunity to meet and discuss the many challenges facing agriculture, including regulations, tariffs, water costs, immigration enforcement, the Farm Bill, and the war. @cafarmbureau

Town hall tomorrow! March 14, 3pm, Mountain View High School. I’ll answer your questions about Iran, the DHS shutdown, our work to lower costs, and more. RSVP here to let us know if you can make it t.co/S8hWaISM4n

In light of deeply disturbing anti-Semitic attacks in West Bloomfield & San José this week, I appreciated the invitation from Temple Emanu-El @templesanjose to connect with our community. Regardless of views of war in Iran, we must not allow those battles to exacerbate division & hatred at home.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 12(source)

Thank you Supt. David Smith and team @GoldenGateNPS for briefing me on the crucial habitat and vegetation restoration work at GGNRA properties in San Mateo County. We must work together to protect our public spaces that are under environmental threat.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 12(source)

This is a bad deal for consumers, and for the freedom of the press in America. It reduces competition and hands foreign-backed investors greater control over major U.S. news networks. The DOJ has blocked similar mega-mergers before and should apply same scrutiny here. www.semafor.com/article/03/1...

Exclusive: Democrats seek to scrutinize Paramount-WBD deal

A dozen lawmakers said they wanted more information about the ongoing federal review of the acquisition.

Ramadan Mubarak! Thank you to the Evergreen Islamic Center for inviting me to join the community Iftar Sunday. I appreciate the warm welcome.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 11(source)

Shari Liss from @SEMIFoundation describes the huge workforce gap in chip design, prototyping, and manufacture. Grateful I could help by securing federal investment in @SJSU’s Micro Maker Spaces to prepare students @SJSUEngineering to drive our next generation of innovation.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 11(source)

Great to join @jaketapper @theleadcnn to discuss the Administration’s lifting of sanctions on Russian oil. “With enemies like us, why would Russia need friends?”

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 11(source)

Sunday’s violent attacks on two Hebrew-speaking people at Santana Row in San José is deeply disturbing. We condemn this violence and stand firmly with the Jewish community and must ensure their safety. I support SJPD’s full investigation of this crime. www.mercurynews.com/2026/03/10/s...

Two men attacked at Santana Row in San Jose in possible antisemitic hate crime, police say

Three suspects allegedly attacked the two men, who were speaking Hebrew while waiting to be seated at a restaurant.

Thank you to the Bay Area Muslim Council and the Arab Christian communities at the Unity Palo Alto Spiritual Center who welcomed me Monday. Our discussion on difficult subjects ranging from war abroad to Islamophobia at home, spurred my own thinking. I’m grateful for all who shared their views.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 10(source)

Thrilled to join @sjsuprezmatson to announce federal grant of over $1 million for @sanjosestate’s new Micro Maker Space. With new equipment & training, these students can learn to prototype semiconductor designs to power our #InnovationEconomy Congratulations @SJSUEngineering

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 9(source)

While the Iran War’s inflationary impact on prices at the gas pump and grocery store consume the headlines, we cannot forget that war exacts a far dearer price in human life. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/08/w...

U.S. Tomahawk Hit Naval Base Beside Iranian School, Video Shows

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 9(source)

The American people deserve to know why this Administration rewards Russia with oil profits while it helps Iran kill American soldiers. I’m proud to lead this effort with @gallego.senate.gov. www.cnbc.com/2026/03/09/b...

Congressional Democrats demand reversal of Russian oil sales into India as energy prices soar

Russia is reportedly helping Iran target U.S. forces in the Middle East and could now benefit from a windfall of new oil and gas sales.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 8(source)

Community office hours at @ Buôn Mê Café in Little Saigon at Grand Century Mall. Thank you to the non-profit leaders and other community members who joined us to share your priorities and concern.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 8(source)

Happy Holi! Thank you @aia.events and Dr. Ramesh Konda for inviting me to participate in the Festival of Colors with thousands of community members enjoying the day at Discovery Meadow. Holi celebrates unity and the rejuvenation of spring and reminds us to embrace the color and love in our lives.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 6(source)

Join me for a town hall next Saturday, March 14 at Mountain View High School. I’ll answer your questions about Iran, the DHS shutdown, our work to lower costs, and more. RSVP here to let us know if you can make it: forms.gle/Gbqz1zuHGsPm...

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 6(source)

Why are we providing sanctions relief to a country targeting America's sons and daughters? I'll be demanding answers and accountability from the Treasury Secretary in front of the Financial Services Committee.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 5(source)

Good riddance, Kristi Noem. Firing Noem is a start, but we need an agency that stops firing at innocent humans.

Rep. Sam Liccardo@liccardo.house.govMar 4(source)
