Once upon a time, we had a true Department of Justice and a Civil Rights Division that we could sometimes turn to as an alternative. That no longer carries any credibility. So finding other mechanisms for credible, independent…

As awful as this Administration’s anti-immigrant mass detention and deportation agenda is, it still has a legal responsibility to ensure the people in detention are treated humanely.

I look forward to working with my colleagues to pass this legislation to recognize the unique cultural, historical, and environmental treasures of the Monterey Bay region.

Their lives have meaning and value, and they retain the fundamental human right, even in custody, as the law clearly says, they deserve access to basic things like food, drinking water, and lifesaving medical care.

The MORE WATER Act and related legislation advance on a bipartisan basis the goal of speeding up federal assistance to our drought-stricken communities and avoiding the cost increases that inevitably result from delays in project approvals.

So we need to do more, to protect people who have built their lives here and who have contributed so much to our country.

Another is a ruling from District Court Judge Sykes earlier this month requiring federal immigration officials to provide clean drinking water and adequate medical care for those held at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center.

But this Administration is choosing to turn its back on the people that this program was meant to help and protect, while hurting our country in the process.

The American people deserve better than that. We owe them a government where public office is a public trust, not a private enterprise.

When given the chance to restore some public trust in our national security leadership and our democracy, Jay Clayton refused to answer simple questions about who won the 2020 election like the other rubber-stamp election deniers in…

Acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte and former Director Tulsi Gabbard abused our intelligence community to feed President Trump’s election conspiracy theories and lay the groundwork for future election interference.

We respectfully urge the Commission to evaluate these renewal applications based solely on the factual record and the governing statutory standard, free from political considerations.

While it remains to be seen whether Jay Clayton will stand up to protect election integrity and national security, I will continue to fight back against attacks on our democracy and hold the Trump Administration accountable.

So far, he has failed to show the backbone needed to stand up to Donald Trump and protect the integrity of our elections.

A year ago, I introduced this bill to push back against the Trump Administration’s cruel treatment of hardworking immigrants.

It’s past time to modernize our immigration laws and create a fair pathway to lawful permanent residency.

Their renewal applications present extensive evidence of decades of exemplary public service, and that record—not political disagreement with a parent company’s editorial choices—should govern the Commission’s decision.

The FCC’s licensing authority is intended to ensure that broadcasters serve the public interest not to influence or punish constitutionally protected editorial judgments.

Congress cannot continue to ignore millions of long-term residents who contribute to our economy and communities every day.

Systemic inequities coupled with the Trump Administration’s attacks on Medicaid and cuts to hospitals have led to historically marginalized groups without access to essential care.

With no clear national security nexus, we question whether the DOE utilized emergency DPA authorities with the intent of preempting or subverting valid local health ordinances and environmental regulations.

California companies are leading the world in developing the next generation of electric aircraft.

We do not believe this satisfies the statutory definition of ‘national defense’ or ‘critical infrastructure protection’ under the DPA and that there is no legally sufficient, data-driven nexus between civilian coal exports and immediate…

The DPA was intended to scale up domestic industrial capabilities to meet urgent military or national emergency needs; therefore, its invocation to construct a commercial, civilian export facility intended primarily to serve foreign…

Congress has never appropriated funds to the DOE’s DPA account with the intent of propping up a dying industry or financing a purely commercial project.
