In Congress, I’ve worked to bring home federal dollars for Community Project Funding requests across San Diego, including investments in infrastructure, housing, universities, wildfire safety, job training, mental health care, and more. Explore the requests I’ve secured ⬇️

It’s Election Day in San Diego! This election is one of the most consequential for our community and country. If you haven't already, you can cast your vote until 8:00pm tonight.

The DOJ demanded sensitive voter data on San Diegans before Election Day, with no legal authority and in violation of federal laws. My San Diego congressional colleagues and I are backing our County Registrar. Eligible voters should never be put at risk of having their vote thrown out.⬇️

When researchers can’t rely on funding they were promised, patients, administrators, staff & others are thrown into a limbo that could cost them time, money, and the health of clinical trial participants. Listen to the newest episode of 72 & Sunny with UCSD Chancellor Khosla in my bio to learn more.

Servicemembers stationed in San Diego tell me all the time how tough it is to afford housing here. The NAVWAR redevelopment project is an opportunity to address this crisis. Read in Task and Purpose why we must build housing, not a data center here:

President Trump's war with Iran has cost Americans over $47.1 BILLION.

$47.1 billion would pay for:
☑️ Free community college for a decade 📚
☑️ Head Start for four years 🧩
☑️ Free school meals for kids for a decade🍎

Too often, when workers exercise their right to organize a union, corporations and bosses hire outside consultants to wage anti-union campaigns.

I am fighting to stop that.

Workers deserve to know how much their bosses spend to bust unions and prevent them from forming unions and bargaining for higher wages, better benefits, and safer workplaces.

¡Feliz día de los Muertos! May all those celebrating in CA50 and around the world feel the love and comfort of your departed friends and family. I wish you peace and warmth as you celebrate and honor their lives.

California is prepared to defend the constitutional rights of every voter no matter what. Check out this Know Your Rights graphic to ensure you and your community are ready to make your voice heard by November 3rd.

For years, I’ve said the NAVWAR campus is one of our best opportunities to build housing at scale. A data center does nothing for the neighborhood and takes away land we urgently need for other uses. Our bill will ensure this site can be used for what San Diegans actually need and want. Learn more ⬇️

Donald Trump’s new rule is supposed to expose hidden fees charged by prescription drug middlemen, but it leaves health insurance companies exempt. I pushed for stronger protections. We need real transparency and accountability to help lower your health care costs.

President Trump went into the war in Iran with no plan or strategy and did not properly prepare our servicemembers or assets. Now, our operations and supply chain logistics are suffering. These unexpected, historically long deployments hurt servicemember retention & our long-term readiness for war.

I voted earlier this week and I urge all San Diegans to vote as soon as possible if you haven’t already. Your vote is your voice. Find ballot dropbox locations and vote centers at sdvote.com.

Dolores Huerta was a force for good who devoted her life to securing a more just and dignified world. She transformed the lives of countless workers and gave a voice to those who had often been overlooked. I send my prayers to her friends and family, and all those who will carry her work forward.

Dolores Huerta dedicated her life to fighting for civil rights, workers’ rights, and dignity for farm workers at @UFWUpdates.

May we honor her life by carrying forward the work she began: ¡Sí, se puede! www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Weakening our ability to restrict methane emissions is not only bad for the environment — it’s bad for business.

Most U.S. producers have already adopted methane-reduction tech, giving them a real edge in global markets where responsibly sourced gas is in demand. (1/2)

The attempted attack at a Hindu temple in Aurora, IL must be treated as a hate crime. When places of worship are targeted with hatred & violence, we must unequivocally condemn it. I joined my colleagues to urge the FBI to investigate this incident & other credible threats to South Asian communities.

Republicans’ cuts to SNAP are leaving children more likely to go hungry at lunch so that millionaires, billionaires, and corporations can enjoy bigger tax breaks.

Kids can’t learn on an empty stomach.

Our commitment to biotech research needs to be substantial and consistent. In this episode of 72 and Sunny, I talked with UCSD Chancellor Pradeep Khosla about what these investments mean and what we stand to lose when President Trump tries to cut funding. 1/2
