As of today, all future offshore drilling has been permanently banned on the West Coast. This is long overdue. But there’s still much more needed to preserve our coastline and protect our planet for generations to come. And we will fight any attempts to undermine this ban.
I invited Officer Daniel Hodges to witness the peaceful transfer of power that his heroism four years ago made possible. We must ensure the violence he endured never happens again. And that our democracy remains strong.
We can, must, and will do our part to ensure that the same is true in every election, regardless of whether one’s preferred candidate wins or loses. We must ensure that our democratic republic survives four years from now, forty years from now, and forever.
Today, there will be no officers maced by rioters or crushed in the doors of this hallowed institution, no offices desecrated or windows smashed by insurrectionists.
Today, there will be no organized objection to the results of a free and fair election by the sitting President, no mob that marches on the Capitol at the incitement of the President.
If Donald Trump starts his new administration by pardoning insurrectionists, he'd be beginning this term just as he ended his last: Celebrating violence against our democracy.
California is a big state with big dreams. As I take this oath to serve you for the next 6 years, I am deeply grateful, profoundly hopeful and ready to deliver.
I just received my Senate committee assignments: Judiciary, Agriculture, Small Business, and Environment & Public Works. These assignments will allow me to help build a stronger economy, support our agriculture industry and small businesses, and protect our democracy and planet.
President Jimmy Carter leaves a legacy unlike any other. Ceaseless in his service, unbending in his dignity, and revered for his commitment to our common humanity. He fought the good fight and kept the faith — and now he has finished his race. May his memory be an inspiration.
Freedom of speech and expression are basic human rights.   The Chinese government must release Dr. Wang, Mr. Ding, and all prisoners of conscience.    And I will continue to advocate for these innocent men and others to be returned home to their families.
Mr. Ding Jiaxi, a human rights lawyer, spent his career advocating for the rights of China’s most vulnerable.   After calling for transparency and exposing corruption, he has spent much of the last decade imprisoned.   This month marks 5 years since his most recent arrest.
Dr. Wang is a pioneer of China’s pro-democracy movement. He founded China Spring, the first pro-democracy magazine outside of China, in 1982.   This year, Freedom House honored him with its Freedom Award.   He turns 77 on December 30. Alone. In a prison cell.
Dr. Wang Bingzhang has spent 22 years in solitary confinement.   His crime? Advocating for democracy in China.   The CCP abducted him in Vietnam in 2002, accusing him of espionage and terrorism – charges human rights groups have denounced as fabricated.
The holiday season is an opportunity to cherish our time with family.   But this year, I want to tell the stories of two people who won't be spending the holidays with loved ones – Dr. Wang Bingzhang and Mr. Ding Jiaxi.   (Thread 🧵)
When Trump violated his oath, I stood up to him. When he tried to overturn the 2020 election, the January 6th Committee stood in defense of our democracy. Threats to jail us will not deter us. Nothing will stop me from doing my duty to the American people.
