In addition to our listening session, I’ve spoken with ICE officials regarding reports of ICE activity in our community, emphasizing that our otherwise law-abiding immigrant neighbors should not face threats in schools, churches, health clinics, or homes.

Paul King leads Packard Children’s Hospital, one of the nation's leading pediatric and obstetric care providers. We discussed how to help our healthcare providers weather the storm of Executive Orders and lower barriers to care for families.

The U.S.'s record office vacancy rates pose a systematic risk to the health of our financial system that nobody is discussing. During today's @ushousefsc.bsky.social hearing, I brought attention to this issue and will continue pressing for answers.

Today, my colleagues and I sent a letter to the Secretary of the Treasury demanding he stop Elon Musk’s blatantly illegal commandeering of the federal payments database.

In a Congress where only a minority of us accept the overwhelming scientific evidence on climate change, I’ll focus on solutions that we can agree upon, such as empowering property owners to invest in risk reduction that can mitigate damage.

America cannot win this century without the investment in basic science research that enabled us to win the 20th century – this Administration’s divestment cedes ground to China.

We demand the restoration of critical dollars for NIH, NSF, DOE, and their grantees against this unlawful order.

Seven years ago, 17 students, teachers and staff were murdered and another 17 were injured at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

If this tragedy was a wake-up call to America, Congress slept through the alarm.

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

The "Department of Government Efficiency" should not have free rein over our personal information.

Congress must take action.
Call Congress: Keep DOGE Out of Our Data
Trump has given DOGE unrestricted access to our personal info, from finances to health records. Call Congress and take action now.

I drive pretty far for work. My clients seem to cluster in an area in north Orange County

My favorite thing about birding is I get to explore new areas along the foothills where my clients live

Sparse human development and gusty winds atop the foothills have given me some fun raptor sightings 📷🦅🪶

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this.

Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.
