Let’s get out there and make a difference!

And to the President, after much reflection like Milli Vanilli and other Z-list musical acts, I have decided…. NOT to perform at Trump’s Great American State Fair event in DC this summer.

Sorry 🤷💔

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

I had the wonderful experience of riding along with Vivalon's Meals on Wheels program yesterday and helping deliver meals to seniors who are at risk of food insecurity. So many home-bound seniors need this essential program, especially with other parts of our social safety net facing cuts. I was inspired by the volunteers and the grateful seniors I met yesterday, and will fight to defend the federal funding that makes this program possible. https://t.co/C3ZZxJMvnx

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

Do you still have your ballot for the California primary?

If you’ve got your ballot, take a few minutes, fill it out, and return it ASAP. It helps election workers and ensures your vote is counted.

Too many people treat elections like something that happens to them. But the truth is, we decide the direction of this state – and this country – every time we show up.

Drop off your ballot by Election Day, June 2nd: https://t.co/rDxTuhvkFA

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

ICE raids are terrorizing families here at home while we recklessly march towards a war of choice with Iran – draining billions we should be investing in healthcare, climate resilience, and taking care of Americans. We can’t keep governing through fear, cruelty, and endless militarism. America deserves better.

And this November, America will have better, when Democrats take back the House. All this is only possible if you get out and vote – starting with the election on June 2nd.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

Have you dropped off your ballot?!

If yours is sitting around, don’t wait. Fill it out and drop it off now!

This election is about climate, democracy, and whether government works for the people or for powerful interests. Every vote shapes the future of California.

Make a plan. Return your ballot ASAP. Let’s do this. 🗳️ https://t.co/rDxTuhvkFA

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

In times like these, Congress isn’t just for debating politics – it’s for carrying out a constitutional duty.

Impeachment is about accountability, and whether the rule of law applies equally no matter who holds power. It’s a test of what it means to uphold an oath to the Constitution when it matters most.

These are not easy decisions, but they are defining ones, and history will remember how they were made.

Come November Democrats will regain the power to hold all those who break the law accountable.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

Let's get your ballots cast and counted! 🗳️

Election Day is fast approaching. If you're holding on to your ballot, it's time to bring it to a drop box ASAP. That way, your vote will be counted by election night.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

Invitation accepted! After the midterm. We can talk about "beautifying" democracy, the rule of law, accountability and the cost of living - because all that is coming, whether your office is messy or neat.

[Abe Hamadeh @AbrahamHamadeh]

Your party left our country in a mess just like your office. Decline is a choice. Stop by for inspiration! 🇺🇸

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

At the other end of the spectrum, my office is a mess. You see I'm working my ass off every day to save democracy, fight corruption and bring down costs for struggling families.

[Office of Congressman Abe Hamadeh @RepAbeHamadeh]

🇺🇸WATCH🇺🇸

A Congressman’s office does not belong to him alone.

It should reflect the beauty and spirit of the district he represents.

Congressman Hamadeh has worked hard to make his office one of the most beautiful in Washington, DC.

Here’s a look at how far it’s come.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

As the June 2nd election nears, let's remember that our right to vote is sacred. Especially right now. Our nation began with a limited and distorted conception of liberty and democracy. It took the civil war, reconstruction, the suffrage movement, the civil rights movement, and ultimately the Voting Rights Act of 1965 to finally guarantee in law the fundamental right of all Americans to vote. Every inch of progress was contested by those who want to suppress, dilute and deny that right, especially for Americans of color. Now Trump and his allies on the Supreme Court and in state legislatures throughout the South are dragging us back to that dark time when Americans of color were targeted with gerrymandering and voter suppression tactics to block them from having an equal voice in our democracy.

I was lucky to serve in Congress with one of the greatest icons of the civil rights movement, the late John Lewis, fighting alongside him during the first Trump administration and joining him in Alabama with my family for a civil rights pilgrimage centered on voting rights.

Today, as we fight this terrible attempt to gut the Voting Rights Act and suppress minority votes with the GOP's cynical "SAVE Act," I think of John.

I think of standing with him on that bridge in Selma - named for a Klansman, Edmund Pettus - where John's "Bloody Sunday" march with MLK, Jr. captured the nation's attention and galvanized support for passing the Voting Rights Act, which he and Dr. King regarded as the most important accomplishment of the civil rights movement.

All of us who still care about civil rights, and refuse to watch our country be dragged backward to the days of Jim Crow and the KKK, must turn this unconscionable setback into a call for action and a reaffirmation of civil rights and voting rights. That starts with each of us exercising our right to vote, and urging everyone we know to do the same. Because voting is the right that protects all other rights, and it must never be taken for granted.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

California, in one week's time, on June 2nd, you will head to the polls to have your voice heard in our primary election.

I humbly ask you for your support once again as I continue to fight for you in Congress and to deliver for our district. And if you have already voted, thank you!

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

Grateful to @ChrisVanHollen for the courage and clarity of this 21st century policy roadmap for Israel and Palestine. https://t.co/MIGEk7Mv5o

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

The Trump admin has spent years pillaging our natural resources. I'm ready to hold them accountable.

As Chair of the Natural Resources Committee, I'll use every tool to protect our environment from corporate polluters. It all starts with your vote on June 2nd. Let's win this, together.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

The fantastical belief that we are combatants in a real-life war against demons (including aliens) whom God is counting on us to defeat in order to save humanity is not a joke - it's what many MAGA Christian nationalists truly believe & it's driving policy at high levels of govt. This dumbing of America is dangerous. I have an entire chapter on it in my upcoming book.

[Right Wing Watch @RightWingWatch]

Rep. Lauren Boebert weighs in on the government's release of UFO files, saying aliens are actually "fallen angels and Nephilim" from the Old Testament: "I do believe that this is more spiritual and, if you really want to go there, demonic."

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

Thanks, Obama 😉. It was a simpler time when the biggest scandal of the day was a fashion faux pas, and not the constant chaos of this White House.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @JaredHuffman]

The ocean doesn’t recognize borders, and neither should our efforts to protect it. Proud to partner with Azores President Bolieiro in @Reuters to share how CA & the Azores are proving that ocean protection is an investment, not a cost.

For years, Stephen Colbert's voice has been more than just entertaining; it's been a vital source of truth and satire that has consistently held the powerful accountable. Apparently, so much so that it drove our president mad.

The idea that Paramount would consider silencing him to appease Donald Trump is deeply troubling, especially if the motive is to curry favor for a corporate media merger. This isn't just about a TV show; it's a chilling example of corporate power kowtowing to a wannabe autocrat at the expense of free speech.

I had the pleasure of being on The Colbert Report back in 2014, a simpler time, perhaps. His wit was just as sharp then, and it's a voice we need now more than ever.
