Before 2008, Congress missed red flags on Wall Street. Last year, Washington was shocked when 3 banks failed. Too often, Congress ignores financial warning signs. Today, I sounded the alarm on the commercial real estate market's risk of collapse—which would hurt all Americans.
Congress should make it easier for Americans to get refunds for canceled flights, not harder. Last year, airlines spent tens of millions lobbying Washington to prevent new protections for travelers, and now this language pads corporate profits at families' expense.

Americans’ taxpayer dollars shouldn’t fund human rights abuses—and the Leahy Laws are supposed to keep that from happening. Each country we assist should receive the same scrutiny under the same standards. That’s not happening.
Affordable child care would help parents stay in the workforce, strengthen our economy, and better educate the next generation. But, House Republicans—and structural sexism in Washington—are stifling our economy, hurting all Americans.
Big Pharma's drug ads have a lot of info—benefits, dosage, and potential side effects—but not the price. When I called out this deceptive tactic, an industry lobbyist doubled down! @RepNikema and I introduced the Plain Prescription Prices Act to get Americans transparency.

I love visiting independent bookstores: as a Congressperson touring a small business, as an author connecting with readers, and as a customer. Celebrate #IndependentBookstoreDay and support these amazing community staples! (I recently picked up 3 books from @CapitalBooksOnK 🤓)
If any military unit in any country commits gross human rights violations, U.S. military aid must be suspended to that unit. Israel has a special vetting process. Learn more here ⤵️ x.com/repkatieporter…

Before these findings were sent to @SecBlinken, where they have been collecting dust for months, Israel was given the opportunity to hold the specific units accountable. They did not. The law is the law, and it clearly requires aid be suspended immediately.

A shortage of 7 million affordable homes didn’t happen overnight; it happened because leaders in Washington keep kicking the can down the road. Californians are counting on policymakers to deliver housing they can afford.
Americans want our leaders to crack down on corporate abuse—and @POTUS is listening. I proposed my Choices for Stranded Airline Passengers Act last year to guarantee travelers a prompt refund when flights are delayed or canceled. I'm thrilled @USDOT is making this happen!
Noncompete clauses prevent employees from taking a better job or starting a business within their industry. This keeps wages low, hurts employees, and discourages competition. Today’s move by @FTC to ban these harmful contracts will help workers and our economy thrive.

For decades, Big Oil had the upper hand to lease public lands for oil and gas drilling. Now, thanks to @POTUS, leases for conservation work will be treated the same. I advocated for this new rule so we can protect habitats and preserve our public lands for generations to come.

Happy Passover to all who are celebrating! I joined Jewish neighbors in Orange County last night for a Seder to commemorate the beginning of Passover. Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful and reflective celebration. Chag Sameach!

.@RepKatiePorter is right: There are lots of misconceptions about clean energy appliances + home upgrades—esp. around cost. Through @POTUS' Inflation Reduction Act, we're making 🌎-friendly, health-friendly home upgrades budget-friendly too. Learn more → cleanenergy.gov
Today, I proudly voted for @RepKatiePorter's amendment to the #MentalHealthMatters Act to help students and educators fight America’s ongoing mental health crisis. We must improve mental health and addiction resources on college campuses, and we plan to do just that.
@RepKatiePorter @MyIrvineValley Thank you for always #DoingMore4OC! 🙌💙

Phew! Just got done emceeing a preens conference with 10 members of Congress on the windfall profits tax. Best part: Rep Katie Porter leaning over and saying, “maybe we should get a chant going?” Make polluters pay!
Okay, Katie Porter. You've changed my mind. Let's ban elective legislative members and judges from trading stocks. @RepKatiePorter
The least we can do? Ensure foreign bad actors don’t have a hand in the process. Americans deserve confidence in the security of our elections. That's why I’ve offered my support for @RepKatiePorter’s bill to prohibit foreign $ in any state/local ballot initiative/referendum. 2/3

I was raised in a single-parent household. There is no discount for being a single parent, but our tax code makes it harder for single parents to get relief than married couples. My bill with @RepKatiePorter and @RepDonBeyer would change that. parents.com/news/new-bill-…
After the disaster we pay attention, but before the disaster is when we can most effectively act. This National Natural Disaster Safety Board is a way to focus the disaster-response fervor into real actions before the next one. Thank you, @RepKatiePorter
Wildfires devastate California year after year, but no agency is responsible for conducting full reviews of these or other natural disasters. Learning from these events will keep families safe and save taxpayers money. This week, I am reintroducing my bill to do exactly that.
With instances of fraud more prevalent than ever, older Americans need resources that are easy to use so they can resolve fraud claims and protect their financial well-being. That's why I introduced the bipartisan RING Act. Learn about the bill below: rodneydavis.house.gov/news/documents…

Polluters, the White Board is coming for you... @RepKatiePorter was just elected chair of the Natural Resources Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, which looks for polluters/waste/fraud related to the climate crisis, public lands, wildfire management and tribal affairs.

6/x Chair @RepMaloney's opening includes letters from mayors in Republican districts, including Bob Gibbs' and Jim Jordan's, asking for help. Example of non-responsive Congressional speechifying: top Republican says sending resources to state and local governments is “wasteful.”

Americans shouldn’t have their credit destroyed because our for-profit medical system involuntarily saddled them with debt after an emergency. @RepKatiePorter & I are reintroducing my Medical Debt Relief Act to ensure credit scores aren’t impacted by medical debt that’s paid off.
