It’s markup day: I’m introducing four amendments to hold this government accountable.
✔️ Due process for veterans
✔️ No blank checks for war with Iran
✔️ No insurrectionists on the federal payroll
✔️ No more surveillance pricing
Heading into committee to put this on the record. Stay tuned.
Thank you to Foothill Transit for hosting my Youth Advisory Committee at your Pomona refueling station and giving them a firsthand look at the future of transportation. Students even got to step onto a hydrogen-powered bus, seeing sustainable transit in action.
In this new episode of Tu Caucus, the official Congressional Hispanic Caucus podcast, Chairman Adriano Espaillat and Vice Chair of Policy Rob Menendez discuss what it takes to fight the Trump administration.

This week is National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. Before I was in Congress, I spent 17 years as a 911 dispatcher. I know the weight of that headset and the adrenaline of being the voice on the other end. To our dispatchers: thank you for your service and for always answering the call.
"Stealthing" isn’t just a violation of trust, it’s assault.
For too long, perpetrators have acted with impunity. I’m leading the Consent is Key Act and the Stealthing Act to ensure there are real legal consequences for this violence.
Impunity ends here.

Republicans just voted AGAINST a War Powers Resolution and handed this administration a blank check for war.
At least $40 BILLION gone. Gas jumped from under $5 to over $6. Inflation is climbing. Housing is slowing.
Working families are paying the price.
The Riverside County Board of Supervisors is right: taxpayer dollars should not be used to cover the legal costs of politically driven or questionable actions by elected officials. Working families shouldn’t be forced to bankroll abuse of power.
At the edge of a global recession, Trump isn’t fighting for you. He’s fighting to pour hundreds of billions more into war while you’re left to pay the price.

This isn’t leadership. It’s the GOP choosing suffering for the American people.
After hearing concerns from residents, I toured Frank G. Bonelli Regional Park with LA County Public Works to address ongoing issues. Thank you to Director Mark Pestrella for a productive conversation on water infrastructure, public safety, and long-term planning.
It was a pleasure hosting staff from the SoCal Congressional Delegation for a labor101 training session with Carpenters Local 909. From building critical infrastructure to creating pathways to good-paying, skilled jobs, our union carpenters help keep our communities growing.
Today we recognize the wage gap facing Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander women, who earn just 83 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men. This is unacceptable. We must keep fighting for equal pay and economic justice for all women.
Thrilled to celebrate the new snack bar at Prado Regional Park, part of a $2.28M investment I secured through Community Project Funding. Whether you’re out for a round of golf or spending time with family, stop by for a bite and a drink to stay cool!
As the only California member on the House Administration Committee, I joined the hearing in LA to push back against GOP efforts to restrict voting rights. Bills like the SAVE Act and actions limiting mail‑in voting would make it harder for Americans to cast their ballots.
This week, we’re celebrating La Popular in Claremont! Their vibrant, Mexico City–inspired flavors aren’t just delicious, they bring our community together and celebrate the culture so many of us share. Places like La Popular remind us why supporting local businesses matters.
This is a deeply disturbed individual.
Threatening war crimes and brushing off the human cost is reckless and dangerous.
Speaker Johnson must call Congress back now, the American people deserve action, not silence.
Wishing everyone celebrating a joyful and peaceful Easter. Today is a reminder of renewal, hope, and the strength of our communities. May this day bring you and your loved ones moments of joy and reflection.
A trash can? That’s generous.
Pam Bondi got exactly what this administration does to anyone who stops being useful.
Thank you, next.
It’s not too late to grab a card!
Trump’s Cabinet turnover is starting to look like a bingo card and Americans are the ones stuck watching the chaos unfold.
Another firing. Another loyalist.
How many squares have we checked off already? 🎯
Firing Pam Bondi, the second Cabinet head in weeks, shows this administration values loyalty over the rule of law. Appointing Todd Blanche as Acting AG raises alarms. Americans deserve a DOJ that is transparent, not a revolving door of hand-picked loyalists.
Sitting here watching the launch and feeling so inspired! Wishing Captain Glover and the Artemis II crew a safe journey, you’ve got all our support as you reach for the stars! 🌌🚀
Oral arguments are underway at SCOTUS in a case that could strip citizenship from U.S.-born children.
Trump has decided to sit in. Is he also going to play Justice and decide who counts as American?
The Constitution is clear: birthright citizenship is not up for debate, and we will defend it.
Trump tried to weaponize taxpayer dollars to punish NPR and PBS for reporting the news he didn’t like. Today, a judge blocked that blatant attack on the First Amendment. Republicans can’t silence independent journalism, the press exists to serve the public, not political agendas.
Republicans are weaponizing the DOJ: 23,000 criminal cases dropped while immigration arrests surge. Fraud, drug crimes, and terrorism cases ignored. This targeted, racialized politics puts communities at risk.

Thank you for your continued dedication to providing fresh food, quality goods, and good-paying jobs for our local community.
Every time you fill up your tank, Republicans’ war with Iran is costing you.
Gas prices are rising as the conflict drives energy costs higher.
You shouldn’t be paying for their reckless choices. They chose themselves over your tax dollars.
Republicans are weighing more cuts to your health care to bankroll a war in Iran and supercharge ICE. Let that sink in.
They’re raising your costs, kicking people off coverage, and calling it “fiscal responsibility.”
They are choosing war over your health care. That’s the truth.
Joined local families at Parents Anonymous Inc. to introduce my National Parents and Youth Helpline Act.
This bill creates a 24/7 helpline for parents and youth facing mental health, parenting, and substance use challenges. No family should face life’s toughest moments alone.
