My record shows: I have championed LGBTQ+ equality since my earliest days in public service. One of my proudest votes in Congress was voting against the discriminatory Defense of Marriage Act all the way back in 1996.

BREAKING: Donald Trump just betrayed every fan whoβs been exploited by Ticketmaster. This fine is less than 1% of Live Nationβs revenue last year AND lets them continue to rip off fans with a 15% βTicketmaster Tax." It's wrong. We need to break up Ticketmaster and Live Nation.
Instead of taking Live Nation-Ticketmaster to trial, Trump just let them off the hook. The federal government had been building a case for years, and could have broken up the Live Nation-Ticketmaster monopoly. But Trump just let them settle out of court.

The mask is off. This isnβt a voter ID bill βTrumpβs plan would let him take over state voter rolls and restrict mail ballots used by tens of millions of Americans. Instead of lowering prices, heβs pushing an anti-voting βSAVE Republicansβ bill. Iβm pushing to defeat it in the

.@SenAdamSchiff We need you to lead to #DefundICE unless accountability is established. It is the only way to stop #ICEViolence. It is what @Indivisibleteam in Tri-Valley, CA demands from all the leaders nothing less.
Donald Trump and Kristi Noem would love nothing more than to pour MORE money into ICE and CBP for deportations and detention beds even after Republicans TRIPLED their budget last year. We need to rein in this lawless administration and its deadly agenda. This administration

ICE officers are being told they can enter your home without a judge's warrant.Β Β This is blatantly unconstitutional and dangerous.Β Β We wonβt let them get away with it.

BREAKING NEWS: Trump went to court to defend cutting off SNAP assistance for 42 million Americans. A federal judge just blocked him. The President must release SNAP benefits and stop playing politics while families go hungry.

Thank you for calling out on Republicans.
Business, tech, and community leaders: your silence is not neutrality. Itβs complicity. Speak up. Use your voice, your platform, your influence β now. Our communities and economy depend on it. #StopTheRaids #BayAreaStrong

Thank you.
We have just over two weeks to pass Prop 50. And when we do, it will send a message of hope across the country, that change is possible if we do the work. So, letβs get to it. https://t.co/EodmVsbE9o

Hope you are right. #Dissent is #FreeSpeech and patriotic.
The president does not have unchecked power to deploy the military to police American cities. He backed down in San Francisco after millions of people took to the streets to peacefully protest his authoritarian playbook and defend our democracy. In America, we donβt use the

There is no rebellion. Not in Los Angeles. Not in Portland or Chicago or D.C. Not in San Francisco. And yet Donald Trump continues to threaten invocation of the Insurrection Act to force these cities to bend the knee to his will.

Over the long term, we shouldnβt have political gerrymandering in America, just a fair fight between Republicans and Democrats based on whoβs got better ideas. But since Texas is taking direction from a partisan White House and gerrymandering in the middle of a decade to try and
Weβre grateful to President @BarackObama for being in this fight with us and supporting our mission. California is advancing a process that gives voters the final say on implementing new maps. This is a fair and responsible response to Trumpβs unprecedented power grab.

Republicans canβt win on their policies, so they are trying to dodge accountability by rewriting the rules. These lawmakers are going out of their wayΒ to silence the will of the people and deliberately undermine our democracy.
The White House is continuing to pressure states to gerrymander their congressional maps because they are afraid of voters holding them accountable for their unpopular policies. This is a decisive moment for our democracy. Take action to fight back against this power grab. β¬οΈ
