25 years ago today, the U.S. launched its war in Afghanistan.
Weeks earlier, Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against the 2001 Authorization of Military Force, warning it would be a blank check for forever wars.
History has proven her lonely and courageous vote right.

CEO compensation has increased 1,316% since 1978.
And worker compensation? Just 28%.
The system is rigged. We need to start taxing the rich so they pay their fair share.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed by ICE agents after working in the U.S. for 35 years.
His sons, Ronaldo and Lorenzo Jr., testified before Congress and reminded us that this rogue agency MUST be held accountable for its horrific actions.

Women are half the population, and yet the majority of physicians have NO training on how to treat women with menopause.
I talked to Dr. Rachel Rubin and Dr. Kelly Casperson about how women are demanding better, and why Congress should PASS my bill to invest in menopause research & training.

Through the end of August 2026, the House was in session for roughly 383 hours total. That’s an average of about 48 hours per month. Their average monthly floor time is well below the 80-hour monthly threshold the same Congress imposed on Medicaid recipients.

It takes longer because LA is the nation’s most populous county, and ballots go through multiple verification steps before they’re counted.
And after years of investigations, lawsuits and scrutiny, there’s still no evidence of voter fraud. If it were there, the right would have found it by now.
