The climate crisis is here and extreme weather is only getting more intense and more deadly. We need to make sure the Army Corps has staff and support it needs to keep us safe.
Trump can't save small manufacturers from his destructive tariffs or the fact that SBA lending to manufacturers is down 44% since June.
Measles. Mumps. Rubella. This vaccine is safe, it’s effective, and it protects us all. RFK Jr. is leading our country into a dangerous, uncertain future. He must resign.
Sometimes when something looks like corruption and sounds like corruption, it’s just plain corruption. The American people deserve answers about how this deal will benefit them and not just enrich Donald Trump.
Transportation emissions, costs, and road deaths are sky high. Representative Huffman and I are reintroducing legislation that will deliver a greener, safer, more affordable transportation system by prioritizing transit and walking/biking infrastructure.
I am a fan of recycling—but not for nuclear waste. Reusing nuclear reactor fuel may sound good but would actually spread nuclear weapons worldwide. This is a nuclear pandora’s box that is best left closed.
Brendan Carr’s weaponization of government power against Disney and ABC is censorship—plain and simple. No American, no matter their politics, should fear government retaliation for speaking their mind. We must stand for the Constitution, not intimidation.
Trump’s reckless tariffs have forced small businesses to pay more than $30.1 billion since March. That’s money stolen from workers, families, and communities.
I’m fighting to pass the Small Business RELIEF Act to refund these unfair costs and protect Main Street—not Wall Street.
Trump’s tariffs are crushing small businesses. We must pass my Small Business RELIEF Act.

Vaccines are safe. Vaccines are effective. RFK Jr. must resign.

Obviously, Brendan Carr must resign. But it is even more essential that Republicans reject these unconstitutional attacks on free speech.
Don't take my word for it. Listen to the kids:
Protect their health, their communities, and their futures. Protect the endangerment finding.
Dr. de la Torre tried to sue us for doing our jobs. The court responded appropriately and dismissed his baseless lawsuit.
Now, I urge the DOJ to move swiftly on our criminal contempt referral. No one is above the law. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/17/b...
Thank you Dr. Monarez and Dr Houry for your courage in today’s hearing. It’s going to take everyone one of us to stop the spreading of vaccine lies and start protecting our children’s health.
This is censorship in action. The FCC chair threatens ABC and Disney over Kimmel’s comments. Hours later, he’s off air. It’s dangerous and unconstitutional.
The message to every media company is clear: Adopt the MAGA line or the Federal Censorship Commission will come after you.
