I’m relieved that my constituents and all U.S. citizens have been released from Israeli detention. But the State Department was less than helpful, and going forward they must take these incidents much more seriously. Secretary Rubio must push to end Israel’s blockade of humanitarian aid entering Gaza.

Three of my constituents from the Spring 2026 Global Sumud Flotilla have reportedly been detained by the Israeli navy in international waters while attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza. I’m calling on Secretary Rubio and the State Department to ensure their safety and fair treatment. The U.S. has an obligation to protect Americans abroad, and my team and I are working to safely get them home.

This weekend, Trump is trying to rededicate America as a "Christian Nation". How about we rededicate ourselves back to reality?

250 years ago, our founders created America to be free from religion. And my colleagues in the Freethought Caucus have the receipts.

Trump’s religious extremist event this weekend to “rededicate” our country as a Christian nation would have our founders rolling in their graves.

We. Are. NOT.

And using taxpayer resources and public lands for this kind of event is a gross misuse of power to destroy church-state separation.

President Donald Trump and several top administration officials are joining with a cast of mostly conservative Christian clergy this Sunday for a prayer gathering.

As Republicans attack religious freedom at every turn, it's more urgent than ever that we protect the separation of church and state in America. Shoutout to my Congressional Freethought Caucus co-chair Rep. Jamie Raskin for highlighting this in Judiciary Committee - Democrats.

I got to teach Trump’s “Energy Czar” Interior Secretary Doug Burgum about an exciting new technology he clearly didn’t know about.

It’s called a battery.

I love visiting my alma mater UC Santa Barbara. It was great to chat with students, faculty, and locals about our efforts to push back on offshore drilling and fighting climate change. Thanks to everyone who came out to join us!
