Here in Sacramento, we know the value of public utilities like SMUD and as electricity demand grows, Congress has to make sure our power system keeps up without forcing families to pay more.

Sacramento families deserve reliable power and lower utility bills.
Today, I questioned energy experts about how we can build an energy grid that moves power more efficiently, prevents outages and keeps costs down. 🧵
And through all of it, Trump and Congressional Republicans have made stealing $1 billion from taxpayers to fund Trump’s ballroom their top priority. Not for you, but for him.
Inflation is rising at an egregious rate. Gas prices are up 28.4%. Energy costs have surged 17.9% nationally, and food prices keep climbing while families struggle to pay their bills and keep food on the table. A basic quality of life has simply become unsustainable for millions. 🧵
The Trump administration thinks taking food away from struggling families is something to brag about. Now they’re jamming through legislation that locks in $187 billion in SNAP cuts while creating wasteful, unnecessary bureaucratic barriers for people already in dire need.
I am wishing all a peaceful and fabulous Mother's Day!
ICE has killed innocent people, torn families apart and terrorized communities. It is a domestic threat, and I will not stop fighting to protect Sacramento and communities across the country from their terror campaign.
ICE needs to be torn down. Wrongfully detaining a 19-year-old with excessive force is not an isolated incident. It is part of a documented pattern of violence and intimidation by Trump’s rogue paramilitary force. 🧵
Right now, the focus must be on restoring systems safely, minimizing disruption, and protecting personal information. Incidents like this make clear that continued investment in cybersecurity is essential.
As Ranking Member of the Communications and Technology Subcommittee, I’ve pushed to strengthen cybersecurity protections so schools and public institutions have the tools and resources needed to respond to evolving threats.
I am closely monitoring the Canvas hack that disrupted thousands of college students' finals week.
Cyberattacks on schools and public institutions are becoming more frequent and more sophisticated. Protecting students, educators, and sensitive information must be a top priority. 🧵
If Chairman Carr cannot understand the plain meaning of the First Amendment, there is only one appropriate outcome: his resignation.
This is not about protecting the public. It’s about loyalty to Trump and protecting his ego. Full stop. I stand with ABC and with every American’s right to speak freely without fear of government retaliation.
ABC is right: the FCC is blatantly attacking the First Amendment. Chairman Carr has made his mission clear—silence dissent through threats and intimidation. None of his claims are grounded in constitutional principle or basic logic. 🧵
I am a HELL NO on ICE and CBP funding, and I am appalled that Senate Republicans are taking advantage of the American people to fund Donald Trump’s vanity projects.
Americans are struggling to make ends meet as prices skyrocket due to Trump’s illegal war. Now, Senate Republicans are demanding an additional $70 billion for ICE and CBP’s campaign of cruelty, as well as $1 billion to fund Donald Trump’s ballroom. 🧵
By helping communities plant more trees, we are improving access to green space and clean air, lowering energy costs, and creating healthier neighborhoods.
This legislation will take successful programs like ours and scale them to the national level.
My TREES Act, with Reps. Cleaver and Fitzpatrick passed out of the House.
Sacramento is the City of Trees. Through the proactive efforts of local organizations and partners like SMUD and the Sacramento Tree Foundation, we have worked hard to continue building a more equitable urban tree canopy. 🧵
The Supreme Court restored access to mifepristone—but this small bit of relief isn’t enough. Reproductive rights are still under attack.
Everyone deserves safe, accessible care. The right to make decisions about your own body is nonnegotiable, and I’ll never stop fighting for it.
I’m proud to celebrate the vital role all of our communities play in Sacramento and across America.
