Shafi, a taxi driver for seniors, told me Trump’s war on Iran has raised gas prices so high seniors can’t afford rides. And he has to put in more hours just to get the same pay.
We need to end this war on Iran and start bringing costs down.

Children and families shouldn’t have to breathe dirty air caused by nearby railroad operations.
The LOCOMOTIVES Act would give companies a free pass. Congress needs to support innovation that reduces our railroad pollution, not hamstrings states that want to lead the way.
Just voted NO on Republicans’ Agriculture Funding Bill because it cuts access to fresh fruits and vegetables for women, children, and infants.
The government should help put healthy food on the table for Americans in need, NOT take it away.
Republicans tried multiple times to stop this resolution but @HouseDemocrats STILL got it passed to end Trump’s reckless war of choice on Iran.
Now the Senate needs to act.
The House has passed a resolution to limit President Donald Trump’s war powers in Iran, a significant rebuke to Trump and his handling of the conflict. https://t.co/7xwuN4SAHl
RESTORE 👏 THE 👏 HEALTH 👏 CARE 👏 TAX 👏 CREDITS. 👏
If Trump and Republicans had worked with @HouseDemocrats to extend the tax credits before they expired last year, hundreds of thousands of Californians wouldn’t have had to give up their health insurance because they couldn’t afford it anymore.

Secured federal funding to improve safety and traffic flow along our primary routes to schools, parks, and afterschool activities in #Carson.
I’ll continue to fight to invest in our communities, especially as the Trump admin tries to take even more funding away from our families.
The extreme SCOTUS majority severely weakened the Voting Rights Act, hurting fair representation — so I held a roundtable in #Carson with African American community leaders about the assault on our democracy and our fight to make sure our votes count.

An honor to worship at the New Philadelphia AME Church this morning. Thank you Pastor Darryl Walker and the congregation for your warm welcome and commitment to our community.
People shed blood and died for the right to vote. The assault on the Voting Rights Act is a danger to us all. We will continue the fight for fair representation and access to vote across the country.
Thank you to New Philadelphia AME for being a pillar of faith, justice, and civic engagement in North #LongBeach.

Here are some additional ways to get your ballot in:

• Submit your ballot at a vote center.

Four days since an oil pipeline rupture in East LA sent over 2,000 gallons into the LA River, and the cleanup continues several miles downstream in West Long Beach.
Thank you ILWU Local 56, @oiledwildlife, @californiadfw, & other responders who have been on the scene every day to clean the river, treat impacted wildlife, and help the environment recover.
Crews worked to clean up a large oil spill in East Los Angeles. It happened when a construction crew drilling to install fiber optic cables accidentally ruptured an underground pipeline, sending about 2,400 gallons of the crude oil pouring into the streets. https://t.co/LRVmbwnjh2
Much of the oil ended up in the storm drains and made it into the L.A. River, which flows for miles before draining into the ocean.
