Make no mistake: Zinke is stepping down in disgrace - with at least 15 corruption investigations into his conduct at the Interior Department. He will be remembered for snatching public lands from the American people for the benefit of oil, gas & mining interests. Good riddance.

This decision is an assault on the right to health care for millions, including medically complex children and those living with pre-existing conditions. This is not over - will fight to save affordable health care.

The courts are right -- employers have no business interfering in their employees’ healthcare or reproductive decisions. This a message to the Trump Administration, loud and clear: STOP meddling in women’s personal health decisions.

My heart is with all the families who lost children and loved ones at . Congress should honor the memory of those we lost by passing comprehensive gun reforms in the new Congress to keep our communities and our children safe.

My heart is with the family & loved ones of this little girl. Congress must open a full investigation into this horrific tragedy - we need answers to prevent anything like this from ever happening again. And we need Trump to end his monstrous “zero tolerance” policy immediately.

Climate action can’t wait. It’s clear that the Trump Administration will do anything to sabotage global cooperation in the fight against – but Congress, states and individuals can still act. Science must prevail.

Congressman Ron Dellums was a proud feminist and a champion for diversity in government. I’m so proud to introduce the Ronald V. Dellums Memorial Fellowship for Women of Color in STEAM and National Security Act. Watch my speech on the new bill ↓

Proud of my colleagues in the Senate today for voting to end the US role in the inhumane, immoral Saudi-led war in Yemen. Once again, I urge to stop standing in the way of a vote in the House.

I love how many East Bay voters showed up for our democracy this November – turnout was up 20(!) percent over the prior midterm election. I hope we crush that turnout number again in 2020! Our democracy only works when EVERYONE shows up.

The housing crisis is especially hard on communities of color that have faced decades of discrimination. My bill, introduced in the House by , , , and , would help families buy homes and close the racial wealth gap.

We need leaders across the political spectrum to condemn white nationalists and the bigoted beliefs they espouse. Racism, in all its forms, is a threat to our communities and our democracy.

It may not have received a ton of media coverage – but something very good happened this week. Our bipartisan PEPFAR reauthorization was signed into law, protecting health care for millions and getting us one step close to an AIDS-free generation.

Once again, the poor are punished while the wealthy get a pass. The criminalization of poverty is a disgraceful stain on our nation.

I am deeply disappointed in for blocking a vote on the US role in the war in Yemen. History won’t forget his role in prolonging and abetting these humanitarian atrocities.

Let’s be clear about what’s happening: President Trump is holding our government hostage, and demanding a wasteful, xenophobic wall as his ransom. It’s not going to happen.

Clean water shouldn’t be a partisan issue. Everyone, regardless of party, should oppose the Trump Admin’s , which would put the drinking water for tens of millions of Americans at risk of pollution.

BREAKING NEWS: after years of bipartisan work, reauthorization has been signed into law! As an original author of this program, I’m so grateful that it will keep bringing us closer to ending HIV/AIDS and one day achieving an AIDS-free generation.
