$14.3 million in federal investments for Solano and Contra Costa Counties.

2026 has been a year of delivering results for our district. So far this year, I’ve secured over $14.3 million in federal funding to strengthen critical infrastructure, improve public safety, and support communities across Solano and Contra Costa Counties.

None of this happens alone. I’m proud to have fought for these projects alongside local leaders and community stakeholders whose partnership made the difference.
We’re just getting started. I’m going to continue to fight every day to invest in our communities. ... See MoreSee Less

As a lifelong Californian and former U.S. Deputy Secretary of the Interior, I have deep respect and admiration for our country’s public lands. I’m honored to serve in a state like California, which is home to nine national parks, the most of any U.S. state.

Our public lands are an essential part of our communities and of our national heritage. Everyday I’m continuing the fight in investing in the conservation and protection of these shared spaces for future generations.

This week, go outside and explore the parks in our district, including Carquinez Strait Regional Shoreline, Benicia State Recreation Area, Antioch Dunes National Wildlife Refuge, and Black Diamond Mines Regional Preserve.

Days ago, Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was shot in the back by an ICE officer in Austin, then sent to detention with the bullet lodged in him.

Days later, the bullet is still in his body and he’s still dealing with the trauma of this incident.

Immediately after the shooting, I joined 100 Members of Congress demanding that ICE get him medical care, stop trying to deport a key witness, and immediately release the video.

We need accountability for Trump’s ICE force now. ... See MoreSee Less
