As the first Black woman in Congress, Shirley Chisholm left a mark on our nation's history that demands its own recognition. It is my hope that the Shirley Chisholm Congressional Gold Medal Act honors her patriotism, leadership, and commitment to our nation.
I applaud @POTUS for expanding two of California’s iconic public lands. By protecting these National Monuments, we not only preserve their beauty for future generations and safeguard important cultural landscapes, we also reaffirm our commitment to protecting our environment.

Meeting with Californians who take time to visit during their D.C. travels is always a highlight of my week. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and shared what they want to see leaders in Washington do to make life better back home.
Democracy is the bedrock of our country, and we need our youth to be engaged in the democratic process. That’s why I’m introducing the High School Voter Empowerment later today with @Senlaphonza so we can hold voter registration drives in high schools nationwide! 🗳️

Before @POTUS and I came into office, only 7,000 borrowers had received student debt relief through Public Service Loan Forgiveness. We made it easier for teachers, firefighters, and others to have their debt forgiven — and as of today, 870,000 public servants have benefitted.

186 lifetime judges and counting. 📸
Overruling Roe v. Wade inserted politicians & judges into the most personal decision imaginable for women & families. Republicans and right-wing activist judges have stripped away their right to choose whether and how to expand their family. This is a post-Dobbs America. WATCH.
