My Bipartisan VA Home Loan Navigator Act
I recently introduced the VA Home Loan Navigator Act, legislation to help veterans better access and use their VA home loan benefits by providing free, independent guidance and counseling.
Too often, veterans seeking home loans face confusion, misinformation, and predatory scams. My bipartisan bill extends the same kind of support available for other VA benefits to the home loan program, giving veterans access to free, independent guidance when buying, refinancing, or fighting to stay in their homes. Our veterans and their families have sacrificed so much for our country; ensuring their much-deserved benefits are working the way they're intended to is the least we can do.

My Statement on Estrella del Paso Funding
Estrella del Paso has been a lifeline for immigrant families in our community, providing the legal support that makes our justice system fairer and more accessible.
The Trump Administration's decision to withhold funding for unaccompanied minors has placed that mission in jeopardy, created unnecessary uncertainty for the people who depend on it, and deliberately attacked due process.
Every day these funds remain frozen puts essential legal services for children and the future of Estrella del Paso at greater risk - reimbursements should be released now.
I'm Demanding More Information on La Tuna Closure
