Ask yourself: did generations defend our democracy… for this?
For 110 years, the National Park Service has worked to protect our public lands, historical sites, and monuments so that we can all enjoy their beauty and grandeur.
Now more than ever, we must push back against efforts to defund the parks, lay off park service employees, and turn the parks into mere venues for extraction.

The supine Supreme Court majority again abets Trump’s efforts to interfere with the upcoming midterm election.
Another precedent-breaking validation of right-wing attacks on equal access to the ballot.
Such is the undeniable legacy of the Roberts Court.

Trump promised no taxpayer funds would be used for his golden ballroom.
But it was a big golden lie that will cost hundreds of millions of dollars of your money.
It's a scorcher out there, Southern California. If you are in need of a cooling center or other resources to keep yourself safe during this heat wave, visit
Stay cool!
The Farallon Islands are a wildlife refuge off the coast of San Francisco that is critical to a broad diversity of seabirds and marine life.
The scientific research and conservation efforts there are essential. Grateful to see the terrific work of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Point Blue Conservation Science in action.

While you struggle with the cost of gas, Trump offers you the spectacle of an IndyCar race hoping you will not notice.

We’re pushing back against this threat to California’s golden coast.

Trump, while Americans can't afford groceries or gas:
Trump says he will use the new White House helipad for cocktail parties
Cost is no object for Trump's vanity projects using your tax dollars, but it certainly is for most Americans at the grocery store and the gas station.
Imagine if he cared half as much about lowering your costs as he does about his gold-plated makeovers.

We cannot allow China, or any foreign adversary, to steal American AI advancements and then weaponize those advances to undermine our own national security.
@SenatorBanks, @boblatta, @Rep_Whitesides, and I have partnered on a new effort to protect against AI distillation attacks and other security risks by allowing increased information-sharing among U.S. AI labs to counter the threat of foreign theft.
