Thank you to the over 6,000 Sacramento County residents who joined me for my telephone town hall!
I look forward to staying in touch on how I’m working for #SacramentoCounty in Congress and fighting back against actions taken by the new administration.

Landlords who collude using potentially illegal algorithms are forcing tenants to pay more.
In Denver, renters paid an average of $136 more every month to landlords who used rent-setting algorithms.

We live in a world where Jeff Bezos can spend $600 million on a wedding but refuses to come to the bargaining table and give Amazon Workers a living wage and safe working conditions. I can’t wait to see the @teamsters.bsky.social win!

Yesterday, the Senate voted overwhelmingly to send weapons to a man who today was served with a warrant from the ICC on war crimes.
Today, the House passed a bill designed to target pro-Palestine groups, which could empower Trump to go after other political foes.
This is fascistic.

Fun fact: there was a trans woman in the bathroom I was using today.
You’ll never believe what I did next:
I pissed. I washed my hands. I nodded to them on the way out, and I went on about my day because I’m not a fucking psychopath who cares what bathroom people use.

The political realignment isn’t Left-Right, it’s Up-Down.
Unfortunately, the GOP is benefiting from the realignment, not because people are attracted to their policies, but because Democrats have failed to deliver.
In a two-party system, people are simply deflecting to them.
