Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov and Ella Cook had their whole lives ahead of them. My heart breaks for their families and the entire Brown community as they grieve this unimaginable loss. We cannot accept this as normal. We must do more to end our gun violence epidemic.

Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov’s family and friends described him as a studious and kind person who went out of his way to encourage others. “Ella [Cook] was an amazing combination of sweet and strong,” said Father Justin Bolger, associate chaplain of the university. https://wapo.st/3MvjRs1

There it is. Republicans are choosing to let health care premiums double and triple for millions of families in 2026. They are choosing to let millions lose coverage entirely.

Meanwhile, Mike Johnson just told reporters that the House will *not* be voting this week on an amendment to extend soon-to-expire ACA subsidies. Many House Republicans in swing districts "did want to vote on this Obamacare Covid-era subsidy" but "it just was not to be."

I'm absolutely horrified by this vile attack at a Hanukkah celebration in Australia. Antisemitism, hate, and bigotry have no place in our world. My prayers are with the victims, their families, and all those impacted.

Bondi Beach shooting: What we know so far about Hanukkah attack

Fifteen people, including a 10-year-old and a Holocaust survivor, were killed during an attack targeting a Hannukah event on Sydney's Bondi Beach.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govDec 15(source)

This evening marks the start of Hanukkah. For everyone celebrating here in CA-52 and around the world, may these next eight nights bring peace, light, and blessings.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govDec 9(source)

Every House Democrat has signed on to legislation to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits. We need 4 Republicans to join us.

1 in 4 Affordable Care Act enrollees would 'very likely' forego health insurance if premiums double: Poll

One in four Americans covered by the Affordable Care Act are considering going without health insurance if their monthly payments double next year, a new KFF poll finds.

Un ataque contra nuestras comunidades, el debido proceso y las libertades civiles: esa es la agenda migratoria de Trump. Depende de todos nosotros denunciarla.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govDec 4(source)

An attack on our communities, due process, and civil liberties - that's Trump's immigration agenda. It's on all of us to speak out.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govDec 3(source)

I am a proud son of immigrants. I know immigrants make our country stronger. I'm on the Floor with @usprogressives.bsky.social and @hispaniccaucus.bsky.social to speak out against Trump's continued efforts to target and terrorize immigrant communities. Watch here ⬇️ www.youtube.com/USHouseClerk...

BREAKING: All House Democrats have signed our discharge petition to extend the ACA tax credits. That makes 214. We can protect health care and lower costs — if only 4 Republicans will join us.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govDec 2(source)

Trump's economic policies are failing us. Plain and simple.

Trump Calls Affordability a ‘Con Job’ as His Edge on the Economy Slips

If the ACA tax credits are allowed to expire, health care premiums will skyrocket for millions of families in 2026. Congress has the power to stop this. We absolutely must take action. But Republicans "aren't interested" in joining Democrats to stop this health care crisis.

Johnson told White House that Republicans aren't interested in extending ACA subsidies, sources say

House Speaker Mike Johnson delivered the message in a phone call with the White House.

Happy Thanksgiving! Wishing everyone a happy and safe holiday with friends, family, and loved ones.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govNov 27(source)

I am horrified by today's tragic shooting of two National Guard members. My prayers are with them, their loved ones, and the dedicated men and women of our National Guard. Grateful for the swift response of first responders.

2 National Guard members shot in an ambush attack just blocks from the White House

Two West Virginia National Guard members who deployed to the nation’s capital have been shot just blocks from the White House in a brazen act of violence that the mayor described as a targeted attack.

For over a month, ICE did everything in their power to try to stop us from conducting oversight at the courthouse after reports that detainees were being held in poor conditions. Today, we got in. Oversight matters. We're not going to stop demanding answers and working to protect our communities.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govNov 21(source)

Democrats have been ready to vote to extend ACA credits for months. Instead of working with us to reduce health care costs for families across the country, Trump and Republicans are trying to raise them.

These Members of Congress all served our nation with honor. Trump’s death threats are vile, disgusting, and incredibly dangerous.

Trump accuses Democrats of 'seditious behavior, punishable by death,' for urging military to ignore illegal orders

Trump called for the Democratic lawmakers to be "arrested and placed on trial" in social media posts.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govNov 18(source)

Congress has sent a clear message: release the Epstein Files. Time for Trump and the Justice Department to follow through. No more excuses. We need the truth.

Senate unanimously agrees to approve Epstein files bill

The Senate late Tuesday afternoon agreed to unanimously approve the House's Epstein files bill.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govNov 18(source)

I just voted YES to release the Epstein Files. This passed the House - now it's time for the Senate to do the same. The survivors deserve justice, and the American people deserve the truth.

Congressman Juan Vargas@vargas.house.govNov 17(source)

Trump knew he was going to lose this vote. He's trying to save face. Reminder: Trump already has the power to release the Epstein Files. He could tell the DOJ to release them today! The reason we're going through all this legislation is because he is refusing to do so. Release the files NOW.
