Following her resignation, I join my @laborcaucus.house.gov colleagues in calling on the Department of Labor to recommit to its core purpose – supporting and protecting workers and ensuring safe, fair workplaces (2/2).
During her time in the Trump Administration, Lori Chavez-DeRemer pursued an anti-worker agenda that left Americans with less workplace protections and greater economic insecurity, to say nothing of the allegations of inappropriate behavior against her and her family (1/2).
House Republicans continue to try to block our efforts to force release of the Epstein files. It’s well past time to release the files and seek justice for all the survivors.

In today’s @democrats-edworkforce.house.gov hearing, I questioned Secretary Kennedy about his support for President Trump’s gutting of the social programs like SNAP that help keep Americans healthy. Secretary Kennedy and this Administration are taking us in the wrong direction. youtu.be/91vsWL-UEbk

I joined @abc7news.bsky.social to express my outrage at the allegations against Swalwell, reiterate my support for survivors, and reaffirm my commitment to ensuring we root our unethical behavior in the House whenever it occurs (2/2).
Now that Eric Swalwell is no longer a sitting member of the House of Representatives, the ethics guidelines that previously prohibited me from making public comment on this matter as the Ranking Member of the House Ethics Committee no longer apply (1/2).
I spoke with @kqednews.kqed.org about the why I voted YES on the Wars Power resolution today to end the President Trump’s reckless, illegal war with Iran and how House Republicans have shamelessly refused to stand up against the President’s madness and rein in his abuses of power.
We should be strengthening programs that safeguard Americans’ health care and retirement plans, not eroding them (2/2).

I will continue advancing legislation in Congress that would help do so in order to improve our quality of life (3/3).
A report I commissioned confirms that telework has had positive effects on workers, the economy, and the environment and that more federal support is needed to help better plan and harness these impacts (2/3).
Since the pandemic we have seen the workforce, and with it the needs of workers and their communities, evolve with the rise of telework here in the Bay Area and around the country (1/3).
I returned to Capitol Hill today ready to hold this Administration accountable for its illegal, reckless war with Iran. Thanks to all of the constituents who continue to be engaged in democracy and called our office to make their voices heard. It was great to connect directly with you!

Trump’s reckless war in Iran has sent gas prices sky-high and we’re feeling the effects here in the Bay Area. Gas prices are up 16% since late February in CA. This war must end.
While I am aware he has announced his intention to resign, he still remains a Member of the House at this time and therefore the Committee retains jurisdiction over the ongoing investigation (2/2).
As the Ranking Member of the Ethics Committee, Committee confidentiality rules prevent me from commenting on the allegations that have been made about Rep. Swalwell (1/2).
I joined @pelosi.house.gov and @morelle.house.gov to discuss these efforts (2/2). www.sfchronicle.com/politics/art...
Amid the most anti-democratic presidency in recent American history and as Trump attempts to make it harder for Americans to vote via the SAVE Act, @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting to protect the right to vote and ensure Trump does not interfere in our free and fair elections (1/2).
Amidst President Trump’s ongoing recklessness and illegal actions in Iran, I support Leader Jeffries’ effort to demand a vote on a War Powers Resolution to end this dangerous war of choice. Republican Leadership should call the House back immediately to vote on this.
Next week I’ll be hosting a virtual town hall on Thursday, April 16th to discuss the current situation in Iran and other ongoing crises under Republican leadership. Due to the uncertainty of the house voting schedule, I’ll share the time for the town hall early next week. I hope you’ll join us then!
