Well, there you have it. Republicans knew their big funding bill — taking away billions from health care and giving it out in tax cuts for corporations — would spike health care costs for millions of Americans. Now that we see premiums doubling, they refuse to do anything about it.

Republicans have a choice today: They can vote to extend health care for millions of Americans. Or they can choose to raise health care costs on millions of Americans. It’s really that simple.

The Trump administration keeps threatening to interfere with the full release of the Epstein Files. To ensure there is no tampering with the files ahead of their legally-required release, we need an independent audit of who at the Justice Department had access. And when.
Epstein survivors and Senate Democrats ask for audit to determine if Epstein files have been "tampered with"
Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's sex crimes and a group of Democrats are asking for a review of the Epstein case files to determine whether the records have been "tampered" with or concealed, ahead of a...

Trump's Big Ugly Bill gave DHS $170 billion to ramp up its mass deportations. That's at least $116 million A DAY to burn. So what does Kristi Noem do with that kind of money? Buy a private fleet of deportation jets, of course.

Today marks the one year anniversary of my swearing in to the U.S. Senate, and I’m proud to have delivered for Californians and fought back against the administration when it was necessary. Californians deserve a life they can afford, and the freedom to thrive.

First, it was members of his Cabinet, then members of Bill Pulte's family and now the President himself. The breathtaking hypocrisy of this adminstration's weapon-of-choice shows the real basis for these investigations: political retribution. www.propublica.org/article/trum...
Trump’s Own Mortgages Match His Description of Mortgage Fraud, Records Reveal
The Trump administration has argued that Fed board member Lisa Cook may have committed mortgage fraud by declaring more than one primary residence on her loans. We found Trump once did the very thing ...

A few weeks ago, my dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I won’t lie—it's been incredibly challenging for me and my family. Now, I’m embarking on a journey to answer the questions so many of us face when it comes to providing care for our loved ones. I hope you’ll join me.

This week, Senate Dems will force a vote on our plan to avert massive increases to health care costs that will begin on January 1st. This is the last chance for Republicans in Congress to help stop these devastating price hikes. Will they stand with us? Or just keep calling affordability a “hoax”?
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govDec 8(source)
Making housing more affordable and accessible takes stronger leaders at all levels of government. Proud to join Mayor Barbara Lee and @replsimon.bsky.social to celebrate the great work being done in Oakland and reflect on how we can kickstart the next housing boom in America.⁩
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govDec 8(source)
We need real solutions and bold investments to address the housing affordability crisis in America. With the support of @DanielLurie and other great leaders, I introduced the Housing Boom Act to help spark a new housing boom across the country.

The killing of shipwrecked survivors at sea is a textbook violation of the laws of war. If Hegseth is so proud of the killing of these survivors, the Pentagon should release the full video, just like they have with other boat strikes. The American people deserve full transparency & accountability.

What do these 3 people have in common? They have all been found to have been illegally appointed by the Trump Administration to positions leading U.S. Attorney’s Offices around the country. We need real public servants in these jobs, lawful public servants, who are committed to the rule of law.

And as we learn more about this potential merger, I will continue to work with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to create federal incentives to increasing film and production in America.
Netflix agrees to buy Warner Bros. in an $82.7-billion deal that will transform Hollywood
A theater owner trade group immediately blasted Netflix's nearly $83-billion deal to buy Warner Bros. and HBO. Netflix has long bypassed movie theaters, instead releasing films onto its streaming plat...

I look forward to better understanding how both companies plan to protect this critical industry and its workers at a time when domestic film and television production is already under the greatest strain in its history.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govDec 6(source)
As this deal is scrutinized, my North Star will be the hardworking Californians who bring us the news, who inspire us and make us laugh or cry, and who are responsible for America's greatest cultural export around the world.
Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govDec 6(source)
The proposed merger between two of Hollywood's biggest players will have seismic impacts on the industry and the thousands upon thousands of workers that it supports across Los Angeles and California.
