My San Jose office received a suspicious letter through the mail today. Law enforcement was immediately called. The investigation is ongoing. All of my staffers are safe. I will have more to say after the investigation is complete.

I had a wonderful time this week visiting the bioengineering labs at @Stanford to see some of the cutting edge research they’re doing on plant and fungal biotech. The work that’s being done here is an important part of maintaining America’s scientific and agricultural leadership.

Donald Trump is terrified of voters holding his party accountable for enabling his disastrous policies. He lost dozens of lawsuits challenging his 2020 election failure, and I hope that this anti-democratic lawsuit is also laughed out of court.
JUST IN: The Trump administration has preemptively filed a lawsuit seeking to block certification of Alaska's US Senate election if the Republican incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan loses in the state which could decide the balance of power in the Senate. cnn.it/4i52DPm

Today, my colleagues @RepKevinMullin, @RepHuffman, @aishabbwahab, and I conducted an unannounced visit to the detention facility being operated by CBP at SFO. There have been reports of people being detained for multiple days in a facility not designed or equipped for that purpose. We will continue conducting oversight visits and our work to ensure transparency and accountability.

Donald Trump has forced Americans to pay the price for his reckless and illegal war with Iran.  Spending more at the pump means families have to make tough decisions.  Rent or gas? Food or gas?  This is no way to live.

I'm proud to share that I just received a 100% rating on the @HRC scorecard for the 119th Congress! I’ve supported LGBTQ+ rights throughout my public service career, and I’ll continue fighting for dignity and freedom for all Americans.

I joined @RepZoeLofgren to demand answers to the Trump Admin’s destruction of the tools that keep us safe from extreme weather events. Americans need better warnings, not satellite-sized blind spots.
The Trump administration’s cuts to weather satellites will set the country back nearly a decade, experts say. The loss of data used to observe, forecast and research extreme weather could prevent the US from making major advances in weather prediction in the coming years. cnn.it/4k6eD4o

Trump’s war spiked diesel to nearly $9 per gallon in California and now he invites Iran to "take out" LA and San Diego? He’s out of his mind.
Trump on Iran: Let 'em take out Los Angeles and San Diego, it's a small price to pay
