As a result of their short-sighted and illegal mass firings of the federal science workforce, Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and DOGE put the public health of Americans, the safety of our communities, and our global competitiveness at risk.
I co-sponsored 5 bills to halt the chaotic mass firings.

Instead of addressing the widening academic achievement gap, preventing school shootings, or making college more affordable – issues all families care about – the Trump Administration is choosing to steal from our children and their futures to give more tax breaks to billionaires.

To pay for tax cuts for their billionaire donors, Republicans' budget would cut Medicaid for over 370,000 people in CA-29.
This includes over 133,000 children and 45,000 seniors.

The extreme budget plan Republicans passed tonight shows us exactly where their values and priorities lie.
In their rush to give out more tax breaks to their billionaire donors, House Republicans failed to outline plans to protect Medicaid or lower the costs of living for working families.

If budgets are a reflection of values, then House Republicans' values are clear: they would rather betray the middle class so billionaires can have more tax breaks.
