Thousands of Afghans risked their lives alongside our troops, fighting for freedom from a brutal regime. Abandoning our promise to protect them does not merely stain the Trump administration, but it betrays the honor of every American.

Handing Trump and Hegseth another $1.15 trillion for the bloated and rudderless Defense Department appears about as prudent as giving a bottle of scotch and the car keys to your 17-year-old.

For 46 years, Larry Stone has served Santa Clara County with distinction. I’m grateful to Larry for his leadership, his mentorship, and friendship.   Please join me in wishing Larry and Carmen a blissful (and boo-free!) retirement

The Bay Area leads the world in innovation, and smart investments in quantum research can keep us there.

Americans deserve confidence that corporate consolidation won't undermine competition or the independence of our major news outlets. Good on @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov and his fellow attorneys general for demanding the rigorous scrutiny this merger deserves. Congress should step up & match that urgency.

The new African American Community Service Agency mural honoring the legacy of Inez Jackson looms magnificently on North 6th near Julian St. 🧵⬇️

Disability Pride Month reminds us that our communities grow stronger when everyone can participate fully. This month and every month, we’re grateful for Parents Helping Parents and their tireless work building a more inclusive Bay Area for all.

Last week, I called for independent investigations into ICE shootings. This week, I joined nearly 200 of my House colleagues to formally demand it.

I'm proud of the work we've done to pass these bipartisan housing bills, but more work lies to tackle the housing crisis confronting far too many American families.

The CFPB exists to protect consumers—not sit on the sidelines.

Are you a college student or recent graduate interested in public service? My office is hiring Fall interns in our Washington, D.C., and California offices and we want you to apply! You'll gain hands-on experience serving our community and learning how Congress works.

ABC’s on its own Odyssey to keep its station licenses.

Will we ever "fall back" again? @amo.house.gov and I are on our way to find out.

Empowering homeowners to become home providers through ADUs helps seniors age independently, keeps families together, and gives teachers and nurses affordable options.

We must build on this momentum and keep rolling up our sleeves to tackle the housing crisis confronting far too many American families.

We can’t know what skills workers will need a decade from now, but we can be certain that our private sector employers will know before we do.

We are so blessed to have ALAS here in the heart of Half Moon Bay. Everyone should come check out this beautiful mural-- the first Latino-centered cultural arts mural on the Coastside.

Great to chat with members of San Jose Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority at my recent office hours. I appreciated our conversation about Social Security, women's health, homeownership, and strengthening our health care workforce.

Did you know 65% of the population is eligible to donate blood, but only 3% are blood donors?

I enjoyed welcoming my colleagues from the @newdemcoalition.bsky.social on to Silicon Valley for thoughtful conversations about AI, workforce development, privacy, and entrepreneurship.

Great conversation with students from Redwood Middle School in Saratoga last month. We discussed AI, Super PACs, and the bills I'm working on in Congress. They brought thoughtful questions that kept me on my toes–I suspect there are some future journalists–and leaders–in this group!

Fired up for the US Men's Soccer National Team’s primetime World Cup match in our own back yard at Levi’s Stadium: Vámanos, USA!

We've got some great examples of companies, like Nvidia, rolling up their sleeves and working with local educators to prepare students for the jobs of the future. The SKILL Act helps us scale that nationwide.

Thanks to the 129th Rescue Wing for hosting our celebration at Moffett Field for 10 outstanding local high school graduates who will continue their education– and begin their careers in leadership and service to our nation–at one of America’s military academies.

This is the least productive Congress in modern history, so hitting singles is significant.

Congress passed four of my bipartisan housing bills

Donald Trump is pouring liquid Drano over the world’s greatest magnet for human genius, and we’re going to pay the price for generations.

Great to be in Kelley Park earlier this month for Dia de Portugal.
