Taking it to Congress
We had our first DOGE Oversight Subcommittee hearing last Wednesday.

My goal as the Ranking Member is to find bipartisan ways to ensure government works for everyone – not just the billionaires and Donald Trump’s friends.

The American people deserve answers because what is happening is not normal.

Elon Musk is an unelected, unqualified billionaire who only cares for his bottom line and not what is best for the American people.

I defended Americans and pushed for transparency during the first hearing.

I also introduced the Nobody Elected Elon Musk Act with the Ranking Member of the Judiciary Committee, Rep. Jamie Raskin (MD-08). Elon Musk and his DOGE followers feel empowered to take illegal actions because as Special Government Employees, the taxpayers would pay for their lawsuit settlements.

My legislation would ensure that Elon Musk and the rest of Elon’s DOGE cronies are liable for their own legal settlements due to the illegal actions that they are taking. American taxpayers should not be left holding the bag.

Taking it to the Streets
It is time to get loud! I rallied and protested with the people in front of the Department of the Treasury, the Department of Labor, and the EPA. Change does not occur on its own, and that’s why we all need to fight back! Follow me on social media where I will continue to share more about how this system works, what you should be watching, and more ideas about how to fight back.

Bringing It Back Home
I held a Telephone Town Hall with New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez.
