House Republicans are trying to pass a bill to gut Medicaid—all to pay for tax breaks for the rich.
For my constituent, Rosemary, these cuts would be devastating. Tonight, I shared her family's story on the House Floor.
I won't stop fighting to protect the care that millions count on.

This has nothing to do with enforcing the law, and everything to do with the Trump Administration's continued attempts to intimidate and silence.
Members of Congress have the right and the responsibility to conduct oversight. We won't back down and we stand with @replamonica.bsky.social.
Trump and House Republicans' 'big beautiful bill' would pay for tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires by slashing health care and food assistance for working families. There's nothing beautiful about making people sicker, poorer, and hungrier.
I'm deeply saddened to hear of President Biden's cancer diagnosis. My prayers are with President Biden, Dr. Biden, and family as they navigate this challenging time. Wishing him strength and a swift recovery.
Republicans say over and over again that they care about our national debt. But they're advancing a tax plan that would add $4 TRILLION to the national debt – all to give additional tax breaks to billionaires. Is that fiscal responsibility?

Task Force RM @vargas.house.gov at today's hearing:
"For all the talk about my colleagues on the other side of the aisle about the need for government efficiency and fiscal conservatism, the last president to balance a budget and produce a surplus was a Democrat." | www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlOi...
Kids should not go hungry to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
This week, Republicans are trying to rip Medicaid and SNAP from millions—all to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. I've called on my GOP colleagues to reverse course, worked to force a vote to protect Medicaid and SNAP, and stood with community leaders in San Diego to speak out. We won't back down.
This week, SCOTUS will hear arguments on Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship. If you're born on U.S. soil, you're a U.S. citizen. I joined my colleagues in filing a Supreme Court amicus brief to defend birthright citizenship and our Constitution.
While Republicans spent the weekend unveiling their plan to gut Medicaid and kick millions off their health care, Trump was busy trying to get a $400 million luxury jet from a foreign government.
The cruelty and corruption is off the charts. Congress must investigate NOW.
Our San Diego County nonprofits have been hit hard by the Trump Admin. The idea that Trump can take funds that have already been lawfully appropriated is absolutely wrong. Good to meet with nonprofit leaders and allies to talk about how we can help support their important work in our communities.
Republican cuts to Medicaid aren't just numbers on a spreadsheet. They will hurt real people in communities across the country.
Protect Medicaid.
Wishing a very happy Mother's Day to every mom in #CA52 and beyond! 💐
I signed onto a discharge petition that would force a vote on legislation to protect Medicaid. We just need a handful of Republicans to pass it. Republicans say their budget doesn't cut health care for millions. If that's true, they should have no issues joining us.
Good. Rumeysa has committed no crime that the government can point to. She was detained as part of Trump's ongoing attack on immigrants and must be freed immediately.
This week, I pushed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent for answers as Trump continues to crash our economy.
Mass firings, tariff chaos, and a budget that explodes the debt (confirmed by Bessent!) to give tax cuts to the 1%—it’s all part of the same story.
They're only looking out for billionaires.
Habemus Papam! Today we welcome His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, the first Pope from the United States, and pray for him as he assumes his sacred responsibility. May his voice guide us toward a more compassionate, just, and peaceful world.
New nonpartisan CBO report confirms: Republicans' budget proposal will kick millions off their health care – all to give billionaires a tax break.
I signed a discharge petition to force a vote to protect Medicaid. We just need a few Republicans to join us. This is their chance to stand up.
